Mongoose Kustom Oldschool BMX

Yesterday we put the final touches on the Mongoose BMX – our dream Old School build, created by my girlfriend and me. 🤘

What started as a standard BMX has been transformed step by step into the ‘80s-inspired Retro BMX we had envisioned from the very beginning. Swipe through the photos to see the journey—from the bike as I bought it, through the restoration and customization process, to the finished build we’re so proud of today.

I’ve been fascinated by Skyway Tuff Wheels ever since I got my first BMX at the age of 12. Back then, owning a bike like this was only a dream—I simply couldn’t afford to build one the way I imagined. For me, Skyway has always been one of the most iconic brands in BMX history, and Tuff Wheels are more than just wheels—they’re pure BMX emotion. To this day, for me, nothing captures the unmistakable look of an Old School BMX quite like a set of Skyway Tuff Wheels.

A huge thank you to Rainer for all the support along the way. From sourcing those hard-to-find parts to helping us with the final details of the build, your knowledge and passion made this project possible. We truly appreciate it! 🙏🤘

This is more than just a bike—it’s a tribute to the golden era of BMX and a project built with passion, patience, and a lifelong love for Old School BMX.
