Have you seen pinoy bmx style in the 80s! You gonna love it im sure..😊
Does it have araya rims?? 😮😍😎🤙
I've had 3 Hutch's , 2 Pro Racers. 1 was a 1st year model and one was a couple years old and black. And a 1st year Trick Star. I miss all of them, but if I had to pick 1, I'd take the OG Pro Racer. It had Red Line Flights, Shimano platform pedals, Comp3 tires, 1.75" front 1.25" back, Araya rims w/Hutch hubs. It was an awesome bike & I didn't know how nice it was until I tried to build others that weren't ever as nice .
Thanks for taking me back✌🏼
This was awesome. I still have my all orig. '88 GT Pro Performer, blue, white mags, fold-down front fork stands, rear frame stands & Skyway rear pegs. Got it for x-mas 1888. Just need new white GT tires to get it back to OG status. I live in lower Manhattan/NYC and still ride it in the spring/summer…and it's so rad. People go nuts for it, take pics, want rides, want to talk about it forever. It's just an awesome scene.
I have a blue haronsport and a red hotfoot love to see this
Where is this bike manufactured???
OMG!!! I remember getting my blue Mongoose Expert for Christmas back in the 80's. I actually have a video my folks made of Santa delivering it to the Christmas tree. I get teared up everytime I see it, cause I want that bike back!!!
my first bike was a bsket case super goose with metal mags lol
lol the supergoose was the bmx racing bike… I think at the time, it came as full "4130" chromoly whereas the cheaper bikes had some other steel on the rear triangle. Diamond back did the same with the Viper and then another model.
Seeing this brings back soooo many memories, I had the candy apple red team mongoose, and the blue one as well.
7:03 I came here from the 80s. To pull off that trick you need to bend your right knee to get a bit lower on the bike and then rotate you right hip forward a bit. That’s the best way I can describe it. 🤟
Alright boys…I gotta jet. Knight Rider is on at 8:00!
(You’re standing up too high and stiff) Ride on!🤟✌️😜
Crikey, I had one of these. It was chrome though, not red. I remember the Velcro on those foam things.
You nailed it!!! 🤩🤩🤩
Rad vid my dudes. What I remember from the1980s wasn’t a table top trick is were the bmx in the air laying flat horizontal. I bought my first bmx back in 85/86 it was a kuwahara neon pink cost was $1500.00(CAD). I wish I still had it but it was stole and sold for drug money by my little so called brother when I went away for summer camp. The best bmx I ever had
My mate had a chrome Californian, that was a beautiful bike. I myself have a 85 tangerine orange GT Performer and a 85 chrome Aero Reflex, both carpet queens, they’ve never seen the tarmac.
Pro riders have moved on loads, but, the average kid in the street can’t do what we were doing back in 83/84.
Theres no neck bracket with the big O in it, the bottom tube sticker has been remodeled and I think that chrome was the only color for that time frame. Nice bike but does not make me think of 1980 Mongoose. I raced ABA in 1982 with a classic Mongoose. Had to ditch those mags for spokes.
Hello guays. Thankyou
It gets me geeked to see younger guys have love for our bikes from the mid to late 70's to mid 90's, I'm 48 years old, & still riding, but now a Sunday EX, not an old GT Pro Performer Team Model, or Ross Piranha like I had a a kid! 😆
How come that all BMX bikes back in the Eighties had a high saddle. Whereas, now saddles are low. The saddle should have a high position again, just like in the original BMX bikes!
Would be great if it was built with a man’s sized 21.5 or 22” frame
My friend had the moto mag nickel plated Mongoose from 1979 or 1980. Believe it or not that is the year I started riding bmx bikes
Here’s the classic story, my big brother busted his ass on a paper route for two years to buy a supergoose. Chrome with blue. I didn’t even think he had it two months before it was stolen out front of the arcade. But savvy parents had the bicycle put on the homeowners policy and he took the money and bought a Toyota pick up truck instead because he was turning 16 in three months.
on the hunt for a good 80s bmx bc I don't like the newer designs.
Just got this bike today. I'm an 80s kid and never had 1.
I know modern BMX bikes are much stronger, but man the 80's BMX have so much more style! And when you see one, you know which brand it is. Now, all brands look the same.
Sporting the Canadian Tuxedo
Such a cool bike for us old guys!!!
That's awesome more like my riding days video's RAD!!
"RAD" Are a great many of us that would go to our local grocery store, and beg , literally beg, our mom to rent a VCR (which was the size of a suitcase) and the movie "RAD." When we were lucky enough to have a copy (because the stores would only have a copy or two of a movie) we watched that movie ALL WEEKEND LONG! Watch the movie, then go outside and do some tricks. Come back in and watch the movie, the go do more tricks. This happened all weekend until it was time to go to bed on Sunday evening.
"RAD," back then, was truly a way of life. Helltrack forever!
I believe I was the first one to put it out there on the track but some people need influencers to assure them
That's rad…. I wanted one back in the day..
Such a sick looking bike
Compared to your current bike how did it feel to ride? much weight difference?
