Picked this up last night. Not sure what it is.. looks to be a mongoose but there are some things different. Probably a cheap knock off don't know though.. Please help

Oh and the only serial number I can find is 000123 on the brake bridge, If that helps

i never seen a mongoose like that.

It looks like the welds are pretty nice under all that paint.

The forks have holes for safety washers, which is often a sign of a low-end bike. But the forks might not be original to the frame.

Does the frame have a kickstand mount?

goose forks? powerlite frame. little later model than the square or round brake bridge models. perhaps 85 or later.

Frame looks to be 1979-1981 Powerlite. Seems that Powerlite and GJS shared the same brake bridge design. I have had a few of those with that brake bridge and gusset combo. The mid-1980s Powerlite didn't have that front gusset.

Forks look to be the Team Cycle (Goose Knockoffs)

yep it look like a Powerlite, nice find!

Dave- No kickstand mount it has realy decent welds on the frame but I agree the forks don't look to be for the frame... Looking closer at both welding jobs they look quite a bit different in quality. Thanks guys for the input
