My first bmx bike was a 1978ish Schwinn mag scrambler with black tuff wheels. It was chrome and had the same handle bars and stem as yours but flat steel forks. The seat stays bent at the seat post and were welded to each side of the top tube a couple inches past the seat post. My brothers had the boat anchor moto mags. Parents took us to Pat's Schwinn cyclery in Mesa to get an idea of what we wanted and they were in the family room Christmas morning. Greatest Christmas of my youth. I'm almost 55 and still love BMX bikes because of it. Sweet Mongoose BTW. I've always loved looptail frames. They look so cool.
You've got, pure gold....so brov, out of respect 🙏, you need to go back, and give the gentleman, another $125....it's the right thing to do....just saying....
Your looking for a miracle cure but you honestly need to save for a new roof or sell. The nail will continue to pop, and cause leaks. Thats the honest truth
3 piece Redline flight cranks are my favorite 3 piece cranks, back in the mid to later 1980’s I had those cranks on my chrome GT Pro Series XL bmx bike! Now I’m thinking of buying some 175mm flight cranks to put them on my 26 inch Ebike build. 🙂
That a U.G.L.Y. color Master , don’t get me wrong I own 4 Masters myself , is that like a coral pink ? In my opinion I’ve seen some bad color schemes come out of Haro like yellow on red , just ugly . I don’t have to say that Masters are in a class of their own & once you own one , you don’t settle for anything less .
Its a colorway Haro had as an option in their 1988 line up. As you mentioned, its called Coral. Its a very difficult shade of red that many painters cant create. If you want more information on it do your research.
Really? You think so!?!🤣 Thats an all original, untouched Mongoose Pro-Class in smoked chrome. All factory original. The tires are even original. I’ve seen these bring up to $3000. The Schwinn brings anywhere from $3-500 dollars. Lol!
@@jamesgallagher1992 I don’t even think I’m gonna take it apart to re-grease it. I’m just gonna leave it in it’s as is condition to make it that more authentic. 🙂
Hi it was car polish. A liquid polymer. Just let it sit for a while per instructions before wiping it off. The rust wasn't really pitted. Mainly just light surface rust. Mainly used the car polish to just put a nice protective coat, shine, and a nice cleaning to the frame. Not really to be used as a rust remover. If the rust would have been bad i would have given the frame an OA Bath. 🙂 I had an old house at that time. I used two of those stoves, one in the front and one in the back, of the house to help assist the furnace with heating. One was left from previous seller and the other one was purchased for only $150 bucks on Craigslist and they work better than the new $2000 dollar stoves that the EPA puts restrictions on! 🙂 Stay Rad
@@Shovelhead-Greg No! I haven’t put spacers in any of my three-piece Cranks sets, except for the very first set I ever put in, and I never have any problems with it. all of my riders right now currently have three piece cranks and none of them have the spacers in it and I’m doing just fine without it. Obviously you just don’t want to crank down the bolts too hard and over tighten anything but you shouldn’t do that anyway, whether you have a spacer in or not.
