this is an ace thread i have a Mongoose Decade that I've had since i was 13 - i'm 29 nearly now

still has proper skyline mags on too. Decade was the first bmx (i think) to have the brake cables attached so that the handle bars could spin right round without tangling the cables - called a spin-tech or sommat.

god, i feel old now but i'll get it out the shed tomorrow and get some pics up

i had a ride of a pk ripper at my local bmx track a couple of years ago and was an experience to ride one. didnt ride like the S&M next gen i used to own but was cool as fuck to be able to ride it round the track.

would love to own one but they go for silly money nowadays
