Man I dig this channel so much. As a kid I hung out with the older kids and always bought there bikes off them. My shed was stacked with old mongooses, dynos, gt, and more but those were the main ones. I tossed everything but 2 bikes I purchased way back when they were brand new. Watching this channel brings me back and has giving me the bug again. Wish I could buy from you directly but I’m 3k miles away smh.
