  • Picked up these three 1980’s Bmx Bikes from an old highschool friend. One was a 1986 Mongoose Pro Class in Smoked Chrome!

    cool video. I love getting old bikes at a reasonable price. I'm more into the 90's myself, but great to see these guys go to a good home! !!!

    Good find dude. The pro class alone is probably worth 10x what you paid for all 3? But it's not the price;- it's the passion. I look forward to seeing you bringing them back to showroom condition.

    Handlebar on the blue bike looks like a Haro brand bars. Not sure about the frame cau as e it doesn't look familiar.

    • @generationofbmx
      @generationofbmx  Před rokem +1

      Ok thanks! I think the blue rat bike style frame might be a Grants Department Store Cracker Jack bike frame!?!

    • @kellyblossom7188
      @kellyblossom7188 Před rokem

      @generationofbmx1887 never heard of Grant's but it's possibly a department store type bike. I had the Mongoose California bike when I was 14 and rode that thing for several years. Wishing I had that bike still.

      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!

      Yes..my friend in the uk in 1984 had a chrome proclass...at that time it was worth almost £500 sterling....thats the top shelf mongoose right there🤘🤘

      @@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. 🙂
