I dont know about the colors, but i do like the frame

The Mongoose Maurice existed long before that crappy Wal-mart Cache.

It looks good but the price is all wrong. Also, integrated stem/bars suck.

old one is cute. New one doesn't make me rage but I won't be riding it anytime soon. Speaking of which I'm considering a leader 725 build. Cannabalizing the sputnik and rebuilding it later as a old styled trackish build with box rims and a lot of polished steel.

The newest reincarnation looks like it can do barspinz with a 700 minus the brake.... possibly?

I'm thinking Murdered out with a bit of steel, B43's, Track drops, nothing flashy, but nice clean, thick lines.

the new one would look so much better with normal(read not color matched) stem, bars, grips and levers.

Totally dude, and i'll throw on a rack for panniers and some fenders while i'm at it!

My sputnik is actually going to get some Low pro box rims and a more daily rider commuter treatment.
