1983 Mongoose Californian
1983 mongoose cali
This frame belonged to a friend, one of this island's sick dirt jumpers back in the late 80's.I salvaged it last year and rechromed it and rebuilt it to my own taste. just learned a few days ago, thanks to member bikelover 76, that this is an 83, not an 85 as I had previously stated. the offset seatstays plus the serial number gave it away, thanks man!
