    Description

    For sale is a used 1984 vintage Mongoose Californian BMX Bike (20" wheels). Single owner (purchased new from a bike shop in '84) and all original except for:
    - mid-80s era Peregrine Graphite Composite Rims (they appear to be 1st gen)
    - mid-80s era Dyno Drain Pipe seat post
    - mid-80s era Odyssey Gyro
    - mid-80s Dia Compe 128 brake levers
    - Newly replaced handlebar grips
    - Newly replaced tires
    - Newly replaced brake lines and cable housing
    See photos for condition. There are some rust spots on the frame and some light scratches (see pics) and the Mongoose decals are scrapped up from use. There is also some old sticker residue in some areas of the frame but overall in good shape and rides well.
    Regarding the serial number seen in the photos for this Mongoose Californian: The "E" (after M4-) is the month this Californian was manufactured (May of 1984). It seems only after 1985 they stamped E for Expert and C for Californian (source: vintagemoongoose.com).
    Please message for any questions or more photos. A great opportunity to add a rare old-school mid-80s BMX bike to your collection with rare Peregrine rims!
