Atari, have you managed to get any decent pro class decal repops? the ones i got hold of are shocking  :shocked:  i've spoken to Bill but he has no plans to do any..
I don't spose you could send me a few decent pics of original decals from one of your many framesets could you?  :-*

p.s. apologies for the thread hi-jack gadd..oh & btw like these guys are saying you won't get better than the goose decals from Bill..fact!

Yep, Bill is DA man for tarting your 'goose up, but the mighty dollar makes it a costly exercise these days.

Here's some examples if they help convince you >:D







He posts up to ten sets for the same postage cost, so I advertised on here last time I bought off him and got a few folk together to buy one shipment and share the cost - maybe give it a spin?

Cheers :daumenhoch:

Here is an OG set I have next to jimmyp's sets.  His are really nice...!  You can drop him a pm.  Yeah...I have spoken to Bill also and I'm pretty sure they won't be made any time soon.

Tom, it's my favourite bike. Oldest Team Mongoose I could find, it's a 1978 and those wheels are my original wheels from christmas 1983 as I bought myself a set of Tuffs about 3 months after I got my Cali and my dad found them in his shed 25 years later - no money in the world would make me part with them :smitten: :smitten:

Spen

ps - these are Jimmy's Pro-Class decals by the way - can you tell I like Mongooses >:D

Wow - mine was built how I'd want it BITD, but odly enough it even started with Tech 2's :2funny:



Yep, I know it's greedy to have 2 Pro-classes - I had an '83 and I think the one I've kept is actually a very early one although it is still stamped with an '83 serial - Mongoose and their damn stamping and dating eh :idiot2:

Spen

ps - I think you'll like my next project if you like Pro-classes >:D

Tom, just looking at your photo with the 5 pro-class frames in (I'm very jealous ::)   ;D ), the top frame looks to have 2 slotted holes either side of the brake caliper hole and the frame below it has three circular holes - can this change be tied in to a date? I know my '83 USA supergoose has 3 circular holes so is the top frame in your pic an '82 maybe? and the the one with 3 circular holes an '83  :-\
Cheers,
John  :daumenhoch:

You got it John...!  The '82 frames have a slotted/oval type shape on either side of the brake caliper hole.  Good eyes!!!

The bottom '82 has the same type.
