| "Back in the day" Mongoose was a bike not a bike manufacturer. The manufacturer was BMX Products INC. and
they were what GT is in the 1990's... a BMX Super Power, ruling the market and influencing many, except BMX Products INC. was a lot cooler!
On the right is some of the original Mongoose stickers and patches. The yellow Goose sticker on the lower left is a fork sticker, the Warning sticker, top left, reads "Warning, if you value your own life as much as I value this Mongoose DON'T MESS WITH IT..." This sticker was very popular back then and was printed up with the name of a lot of other bikes as well. |

 The bike the kid rode with ET in the basket was a Kuwahara! |
 the Mongoose discription. This Redline Warning sticker is made with what was very popular at that time... Rainbow Tape, aka: Disco Tape. |
 Race INC. built some sweet anodized frames and handle bars. In 1979 I had a 13 lb. bike
with all alloy parts including a Race INC.
frame and handlebars.
I finaly had to get rid of my Race INC. after
my racing started to suffer. Come to find
out, it was just way to light and short, it
turned me into the washout king!

Fox as it is know today or Moto-X Fox as it was known in the
"Old School" use to be very popular. As with many other company's back in the early days of BMX the Fox roots had already been laid in motorcycle motor-X. The Fox head and tail loogo's were recognized far and wide, even non-moto/motor-X fans were wearing and sticking the Fox trademarks.
The two Fox tail stickers on the right are rub-on's as is the upper sticker, far left and far right stickers are of the rainbow variety and the middle has a clear background. |
