jsngrimm · 2013-01-18 3:21pm

Looks good so far! There is a pretty freakin mint one on my local CL right now, been there for months and nobody is buying it but its $390

makaveli502 · 2013-01-18 3:44pm

thanks, it seems these werent as popular as the cali or the expert. Ive had experts and a couple cali mongoose bikes, never had a m1 figured id build me one, I think I might use it for my rider. Havent decided yet,

or

Either is good Do not use the black pads though! Black pads streak the crap out of colored mags

I like the white calipers, the blue caliper does not match your spider.

cardsNpokes · 2013-02-11 3:21pm

Glad to see I'm not the only one building one of these. Mine is white and an '85 (white and black scheme). I figured it would be a cheap build for summer riding, although the farther I get into it the more I spend more than I intended.

The blue caliper would be sick if it matched the spider, but since it doesnt........

cool, white and black will look good, Ive been using just extra parts on it for now, untill I decide what I want on it. I have a hard time decciding sometimes. Ive built a couple bikes 2 or 3 times before I got them the way i wanted, prob be the same with this.

I'm looking for a pink/purple/lavender 1985 M-1 if anyone comes across one, or just an 85 M-1 f/f.

makaveli502 · 2013-02-25 9:41am

changed my bars and stem on this m1 , i put some kneesaver bars on it for now. i think it looks better , what do youall think.

this is how it was before

SoGnarly · 2013-02-25 10:49am

Looks great!

jsngrimm · 2013-02-25 11:00am

Does look pretty cool with the kneesavers

makaveli502 · 2013-02-25 8:27pm

cool, I too thought it looked pretty cool, In my hood BITD everyone around wanted a mongoose with kneesaver bars. Who knows why. I had a mongoose cali with some kneesavers BITD , eventually im going to get me a mongoose cali, Ive got a few experts, a couple decades, a fs1 and this m1,

johnng23604 · 2013-02-25 9:04pm

very nice goose, im liking that padset, if I come accross a padset on a deal ill get one. but this is just a side project. Ive got a lot of money going into 2 other projects at the moment. so any costly item will have to wait, I think the one I saw before like that was 75.00 I should have grabbed it at the time but it was a drive and I didnt want to make the journey.

Its a mongoose fork, its off an expert I had sitting around. the chrome was shot on the fork so I had it powdered. Im going to try to find a m1 fork on down the line. Ive got 2 other projects going that have been getting most of my money and resources. I will eventually get a m1 fork
