  2. Thanks man. The lever might be arriving this weekend. The Arayas are another story. I will be sending the wheels away to have them colour anodised in the interim.
  3. Thanks for this. Are you willing to part with it? If so you can message me. I have some people in JHB that can collect and send them to CPT.
  4. Hi Guys, Just thought an update is in order. I got the Minigoose some fresh rubber yesterday and fitted it. http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/640x480q90/707/9y0w.jpg http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/640x480q90/801/701l.jpg http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/640x480q90/41/t676.jpg http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/640x480q90/203/b8jw.jpg http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/640x480q90/11/ts62.jpg http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/640x480q90/15/xkl7.jpg

  8. Just thought I would share the love in this thread too. Here is my project as it stands currently. 1983 Mongoose Minigoose http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/800x600q90/7/36y8.jpg
  9. Thanks. I will keep you guys updated.
  10. Yeah I had two Supergooses as well (1 loop tail and one with gussets called the classic). I haven't tested it yet. I will do so once I am complete and happy with the outcome of the project. If you guys have any parts or know anyone who has these kinda parts please let me know. It will be appreciated. I am specifically at this point looking for Araya wheel rims and a two finger MX lever.
  11. The front hub is a Suntour hub and the rear one is a Suzue. I found a matching suzue hub for the front which I will be installing as time for this project goes on. I will be removing the colour and having them anodized red hopefully.
  12. That's great. Do you still have any old parts there? Is there any chance you willing to get rid of the number board?
  13.

  14. Hi guys, Just thought I would share my project with you guys. Well first of all I got my hands on a vintage Mini Profile Pro racing bike that I thought I was going to restore but me being a Mongoose fanatic I opted to have it swopped out for a Minigoose instead. Here is what the Profile looked like: http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/800x600q90/594/kl3u.jpg So then myself and a friend decided to do a swop with our frames with no wheels. And this is what I have now. 1983 Mongoose minigoose The day I brought it home and fitted my wheels: http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/800x600q90/22/7pw1.jpg http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/800x600q90/713/90oh.jpg http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/800x600q90/823/5dry.jpg Then over the weekend I got myself a Diamond back lay back seat post and a red Mx 1000 red brake caliper. http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/800x600q90/845/pwc0.jpg http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/800x600q90/843/f8lg.jpg This is hot the Goose stands now: http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/800x600q90/7/36y8.jpg
  15. Awesome. Thank you for this link. Hopefully there is info there and even a Supergoose for sale.
  16. I heard back from Profile (the company) yesterday and they said its a Mini Profile Champ. I am not too sure about the fork. I am trying to get some more information out of the company for the bike in its whole.
  17. I just confirmed its a Profile Mini Champ.
  18. I picked this one up on Saturday. Its a 1982-1986 Profile Competition Racing BMX. Its a mini and not a full size 20". All the parts are 20" though. I am hoping its a Shelby James edition. Cos then it would be a more special one. I am still researching the specific bike at the moment. I plan to restore it to its former glory. http://imageshack.us/a/img845/7223/sayf.jpg http://img818.imageshack.us/img818/2921/y0z1.jpg http://imageshack.us/a/img600/8417/xauo.jpg http://imageshack.us/a/img577/4336/a4at.jpg http://imageshack.us/a/img707/3561/3oma.jpg http://imageshack.us/a/img201/2328/n9h6.jpg http://imageshack.us/a/img202/9238/qvnb.jpg http://imageshack.us/a/img541/3315/38xk.jpg http://imageshack.us/a/img208/4485/w55z.jpg
  19. Hi guys and girls. I just recently found this competition racing bike. I have been reading up on it but not too sure of the actual date. What I read up so far is that its between a 1982-1986 but these bikes were all similar and cannot be identified as a 82 or 83 or 84 model etc. due to the similarities. This however is not a 20" frame. I think its 18.5". Anyhoo...this is what it is... Profile Competition racing bmx (could be a 1984 Profile Shelby James mini) http://img594.imageshack.us/img594/5746/kl3u.jpg I will post some detailed pics in a separate thread.

  24. Hi Guys, I am new to the scene @ 31yrs old. Thought I would relive my young days and get myself a BMX again. Back then I had 2x 1980's Supergoose (AKA super Mongoose). Here is the bike I purchased a week ago. 2009 Mongoose Mischief http://imageshack.us/a/img703/6752/14ph.jpg http://imageshack.us/a/img513/9039/l2to.jpg Took it for a ride on Sunday with two friends around Sea Point and it was great fun to be on a BMX again. Anyhoo...that is my little intro and equipment. Enjoy!
