The year is 1984. You’re 12 years old, and summer vacation feels like a dream with a special outcome. The next 100 days become one endless, repeating arc of waking up at noon, slamming two or three bowls of sugary cereal, and then heading out for the day’s adventures on your bike.
The question is: What are you riding?
If you fit that age bracket, your fantasy had to be a Mongoose. For the bad boy stealing pizza from the mall food court and skulking around the arcade, it was the Supergoose.
And if you styled yourself the All-American wonderboy, with flowing locks, a pocket full of bubble gum, and the awe-inspiring ability to land a gainer off the high dive on cue, it was the California Special.
This week, Mongoose brings them both back — and everything that comes along with them. Put down your Atari joystick and dream a little dream of retro shredding with Mongoose Classics bikes.

Mongoose Classic BMX Bikes: Supergoose, California Special
The Supergoose and California Special will be faithful “repops” of the original bikes (catch a glimpse here), using reproduction parts to emulate the originals in precise detail.
The geometry, materials, construction, and original spec will be the same down to the seat clamp, brakes, and colors.
