Re: 1985 Mongoose Expert
Yah I saw it and knew it could be an excellent find. I gave it a quick look and decided i had to have it of course. Before he even finished saying... "I'll let 'er go fer fifteen." the money was in his hand and i was steppin over the top tube. At the same flea market i also picked up an gigantic OLD Brooks leather seat bag/trunk thing. And just a week earlier I found the M1-mini in my bikes for $10! That must have been the sweetest week of scores ever because I also found a sweet old Raleigh 3-speed that paired up perfectly with the brooks bag.
