- With the 35th anniversary rerelease of the movie Rad one night only in theaters, Mongoose did a short run (500 of each color of 3 colors in the California and 500 of each color of 2 colors for the Supergoose) in October 2021. As of this video this color was sold out already!

Once or twice you mentioned it not being "race quality" but back in the 80s being 5'5 & 97 lbs. These bikes would be treated/used as "race quality" in many a neighborhood. this bike even now in the right hands will do some shredding!
Agree 100%.
awesome, great bit of nostalgia right there ! I had one in 1981, congrats sir
Glad you enjoyed it
yes, but back in the days it was made in USA ಥ_ಥ_
Congrats. My black and red supergoose came this week;). Wifey surprised me!
Nice! Im a fan for sure
Heck yea u got one
Yeah. Ordered first day or two they came out!
Interesting to see that your bike (and the Mongoose website) has no front brake when the bike I got has a matching front brake??
Yeah. Not sure on that
I bought the supergoose and i have a consyrucion site in my neighborhood their is so many ramps
Awesome
Nice, I just ordered the black (all they had left in stock), is the frame painted or chrome/nickel plated?
Nice. Chrome plated
I just got one last night, the frames are definitely not chrome plated on the 2021 reproductions. They are painted light grey. These new reproductions make good wall hangings but they are not made exactly like the original ones that were made in California in the early 80's.
Was the original 80s bike actual chrome or was it always chrome plated?
@@LOPANindustries the original Californian frames and handlebars were nickel plated and were shiny like chrome.
@@adrenalineguy Thanks for your reply. So the current release is just nickel plated? Does it look cheap and nasty?
Are they limited edition like…. The stranger things mongoose?
500 of each color
@@nufnuffz28 cheers mate
How's the quality?
Decent for a retro imo
hey bro nice bike , im nearly 6 foot tall is the 20 inch to small you think
Its a little small. Im 5'11 and I can cruise it OK
@@nufnuffz28 ok 24 inch it is
So angry at this moment, bought one of these from Germany brand new from a bike dealer, they had took it out, built it up then re packaged it within one of their own generic extra large size box and threw away the original packaging. When I contacted them they said they must check over bikes and part assemble all their bikes, but yet when I bought the stranger things Netflix mongoose from the same company a few years earlier they sent it in original box. Must say I was pretty angry not getting this one delivered untouched.
So sorry about that!
Shame that they only used chromoly in the supergoose
True. I still love this little POS. Haha
So small
Just like I remember though!
@@nufnuffz28 I bought the red one when they released it. Haven't put it together yet. Is this a comfortable ride tho for a 5'11 adult?
@@johnhozak3903 not too bad honestly. Im 5 11 175... not roomy, but not ackward
You got burned
I'll be Ok. :)
