Out of the box it is pretty decent. Welds look good, looks pretty accurate to the 1984 frames full chromoly and nice finish. I wanted the new motomags too, but I thought silver was too close to the pro class drilled rims it came with and I didn’t want red frame on red wheels so I thought I’d go yellow and see how it looks.
I just didn’t like the one piece crank and the pedals were just ok.
So I added
Yellow motomag III
Yellow chain
SE rad 3 piece crank
SE bear trap pedals in anodized blue
Blue monza elina repro seat
Yellow checker donuts
Kept the pro class drilled wheels to swap whenever
I know mongoose has gotten kinda trashy over the years, but these classics are pretty nicely done. I’m not gonna be doing anything crazy with it but for cruising around the neighborhood with my kid I like it a lot. He’s on a basic starter bmx but I’m thinking about getting the race inc ra20-r to fool around with on the pump track and for him to use when his skills improve.

I did the same on a blue goose.
