Help to identify new bike, please
Greetings! I normally hang out in the Classic and Vintage forums, but today I got a BMX for my 11 year old, and I can't seem to identify the brand. It has a bunch of Mongoose branded parts on it - but honestly ... it could be anything judging by the seller, if you know what I mean.
Here is the serial number stamped below the BB.
The 11 year old is already in love, had to take the bike away - it came without a brake, and he already wants to ride it all the time!
Many thanks in advance!

How about posting a picture of the entire bike? That might help a bit,...

Late 90's Mongoose race bike - '97-'99 Mongoose Menace maybe?
Doesn't look quite right for a supergoose, but I could be wrong.
