mongoose detain is wut i ride. its far from stock tho. bought her last year on clearence at the wally world here. its not a bad bike in stock trim. its even better as a fixed gear. the rear hub does have the flip flop hub. freewheel was actually installed on wut ya use for a fixed setup didnt realize it til after i rode fixed on was suppose to been the freewheel with a BB lockring then it finally broke. parts i have change over time have been: the crankset went from the stock steel to a alloy projekt fixie. avenir cog and lockring. orgin8 saddle( brooks style) and recently retrospec pista bars in a older nitto stem. tires are duro fixie pops red draggins. older mks ar-8 pedals with unknown brand toe clips with straps. i run 44X16 right now

It's got a bent seat tube ala Schwinn Sprint and KHS.

lol its the stock kickstand. it works. have rode without it but i cant always just lean her against sumthing like a wall,pole,tree,etc. and i rarelt to never lay her down. its disrespect to the bike to me. when u put in the wrench time like i have on her to keep her alive in this unforgiven society i have to exist in. its brutal honesty not an argument.
