I saw this 2024 JTT Truegoose 26in BMX Bike on Facebook and had to get it submitted to the series. Lou Genitempo got this awesome Johnny True Torch Mongoose inspired custom 26in frame built up nice. He chose the classic chrome plated and red color combo and it looks amazing. And yes it’s a 26in frame with 24in Skyway Tuff Wheels!

An exact replica of my 1st (hand me down) aside from this bike having 7 spoke Tuffs and original having 5 spoke bike in 1982 when I was 7 years old. The current bike is a 26” custom version of a 1980 Mongoose Supergoose 20”
