FINISHED MY MONGOOSE BEAST TODAY - NEW DECALS

[Rat Rod]

After several iterations of this bike, I finally decided on the look that I wanted. Tore the bike down last night and ended up painting the frame and fork today.

Installed a set of Sunlite Crusher 26 x 3.5 tires yesterday and they are much better than the original rolling stock.

Here's what the bike looked like last night...

And here's how it looks today...

Tires sure do look much better, and I bet they roll a lot nicer.

Did make a world of change. Looks really good. If those rims are aluminum I would do the draino
trick and polish them. Its a little bit of work but would really make it look custom.
Polished 100's do look good. :lol:

Supa SWEET. bet those tires , pedals , and seat are a 100% upgrade in the comfort department. Must roll with a bit less resistance. So just what is that fresh sprayed color
on that Beast?

That's awesome Steve. 8) I'd love to see someone with some Fab Skills roll out some Aluminum fenders and Horntank, rebuild the Frame to accomadate them,do up a Springer, and make a huge vintage looking light with modern LED guts, and then give it a "Patina" job.
