Re: 1981 Team Mongoose
Looking to build one of these if I can find a F/F. What are you using for wheels and hubs and brakes?
Formerly XXrlproline24XX
F**k sittin on NOS Parts. Build it! Otherwise they're just PARTS and not a BIKE!
I never log off. So I always show ON LINE. If I don't get back to you in 30 minutes I'm busy dealing with my "real" life.
