Default Poor little Mongoose. CHOP CHOP

I was walking through wally world and this poor little BMX mongoose was just sitting there with a clearance tag of $29.00. It was smiling when it left the store. Until it rolled into the garage and saw the power tools, welder, grinder and cutting saw. (bike torture chamber)

Little did it know it would soon live the life of a motorized low-rider. 7ft 6" long. Frames highest point of 24.5". The schwinn OCC in the first shot is in fear knowing it is next.

This bike will not be for the rookie or inexperienced rider. Stretched this far (52 deg) will have steering flop. This MB will be totally about "holly moley I survived the ride" and I lived to tell about it.

What can I say.... I have never built a specialty bike to be normal. This is the first stages. Poor little BMX Mongoose.
