Old school Mongoose BMX

Old school '80s Mongoose BMX

In an effort to relive his youth, James has purchased a new toy!


James Peene (VW Camper&Bus) had a busy weekend just gone involving a trip to Weston-super-mare to fetch a new bike!
The bike in question is an old school '80s Mongoose Grand Prix BMX. James had always wanted one as a kid and now, in his early thirties, has decided to get one in a bid to fullfill his quest of being all out Retro!
"I can't afford an early '60s Ragtop Bug right now so the BMX was my next choice" said James.
A quick browse on eBay came up trumps and for 80 notes the bike was his.
He's going to clean it up and use it to get about the shows this year - look out for James and the bike at Bug Jam.

Now the question is, does James fit the retro Monster Munch spokey dokey's that he dug out of his stash of childhood memorabilia?
What do you think?

If your going childhood retro then you need the Frosties free gift which was a plastic playing card thing with built in tie wraps!

The saddle is GOING - was on it when I bought it - YOU'RE NOT THE BOSS OF ME - wait, actually you are...

How old am I? 32!

Should I also fit a playing card to the back wheel so it sounds like a motorbike..?

as much as i love spokey dokeys, i think it might ruin the look! your call! maybe you can do a 'one day on - one day off' rota until you know which way you swing.
