1981 Mongoose Motomag

"Bumblebee"

Purchased frame & fork from the museum, for a song.  It was looking pretty ugly but still a solid survivor with no scratches or damage at all. I never even dreamed how beautiful this would turn out.  The frame and fork was blasted and powdercoated to a bright "lemon" yellow color and then given a new set of decals from BmxProducts. The cranks were powdercoated a flat black. 

 

Parts include:

'81 Mongoose Motomag f/f

'81 Elina seat

81' Dia-Compe caliper

Powerlite "Powerbend" bars
