Looks correct but the pro classes ive seen have 3round holes in the brake bridge.
This has 2slots either side of the brake hole.

Ive also seen a pro class with just a single hole in the bridge.

Oh and matt keep ya nose out!

measure the down tube. on pro classes the down tube should be 1.1/4" and the top tube should be 1.18"

dont listen to him, he is turning in to one of these JMC freaks.

matt · « **Reply #5 on:** February 26, 2006, 04:42 PM »

its an expert, its an expert

does the decal not give it away
and the fact that the serial no is under the bottom bracket and not on the box section behind

;

;DD

Lol..It will be on the block section..

Matt thinks mongoose made two different size pro classes, an expert & pro.

Anyway all this piss taking..he’s the only guy i know who’d spray an expensive JMC
with a rattle can!

matt · « **Reply #7 on:** February 26, 2006, 07:29 PM »

nope they made a 20" and a 26" and the spray job is second to none, not like your goose expert

......... well i know retrogeezer (simon ) has a mongoose that is identical to my pro class in every way ie brake bridge, location of the serial no, tube thickness and weight ( we know we checked them against one another),, also mongoose did sticker up the pro class frame as superooses as they sold more of ... so we think anyway ,, so u may have a pro class frame

i know that mongoose in the states built supergooses to the same tube sizes as the pro class - as thats my one scary shows a few posts back with gold pro class topped stem
not sure where serial no is located on that one though, will have to check.

i looked right in to it at the time hoping i had a Pro Class but a action bike article proved they built them with chunky tubes, the only difference is in the weight.
my chunky tube supergoose F&F weighs around 2lbs more. i would go more on the weight issue than any other, as the pro class had special thin wall tubing requiring their top welders
by all accounts hence the top quality and super lightness

once my home Pc is back on line i have a few scans of mag test i can share, must decorate faster .....
