So this caught my eye at a used sporting goods store this morning:




Got home and stripped it down:




From the serial number, it appears to be a 1978 Mongoose Motomag frame.

So, S&B, what is it and is it worth anything? I know some of you are into vintage bmx stuff.

Thanks!

Thats a nice looking frame. When I was a kid one of my good friends had a Mongoose frame just like that but it had the Mongoose decals on it and the Motomag wheels. That set up was heavy! No idea what its worth but it sure is cool.

That is a nice frame!

Mongoose sold many, so there are a bunch out there.

You can get reproduction stickers here

There is a fully restored one on the Bay right now for just under 500 for the complete bike.

Agree with that listing and confirmed by people who know bmx...
It's a pre-80 motomag.
