1986 Mongoose Californian
1986 Mongoose Californian
number 150 for 1986
i picked this up on ebay about a month ago..i was a little confused why none was really bidding on it..i know its not original but the new pearl paint looks nice..sr cranks are cool and period correct at least..1 3/8 in.proclass wheels with acs hubs and toga mitsiboshi comp 3 green/yellow label are in great shape and pretty unusual..im glad i did..the bike weighs nothing and i scored some original pads from a member..thought the color combo looked pretty cool..swapped the original brakes out that were poorly painted and its a nice looking rider..money well spent..and i had to throw some museum stickers on there..thanks gary

Re: 1986 Mongoose Californian
Most people prefer the 83-85's Cali's.
goose none the less, I'd add it to my collection 
I'm looking for the following frames, frame & forks or completes by BMX products:
MotoTrac (nickle or chrome), Racer-X or a Super-X (with the double gussets).
Thanks
