The Mongoose was the bike I pieced together before I got my Redline in May of '83. Guess I was privileged enough to be able to custom build the BMX bikes of my dreams. I was heavy into BMX back then, even raced a few times but not real competitively.
Rode the Redline for a little while until I started skateboarding and never looked back. Both the 'goose and Redline eventually were retired to the basement where they stayed for the next 25+ years...
What I really wanted though was a KX/YZ/CR80 but the 'rents wouldn't have it. :cry:
