New winter project MTB
This just got delivered today. 92/93 Amp Research B2, rebadged as a Mongoose Amplifier.
This has never been built up, a few minor scratches and rub marks. Was purchased New by a young fellow before he left for university and had sat in his parents basement for the past 25 years.
Looking forward to getting all the correct bits and assembling as a unique retro bike.
Anyone with advice or appropriate parts available please let me know.
Thanks,
Brian
