Mongoose Maurice fixed: the democratic build thread

1. Are you ever going to run it SS?
   
   

I'd like to keep the option, and I don't want to spend too much money on the bike because it'll hold back the build I really want to do on a new frame.

1. Do you like the cockpit? Are you going to keep the risers etc?
   
   

I do quite like the risers, actually, for every day riding. A nicer mtb stem is a good call, yes.

1. Strip cranks back to silver and leave silver. (they'll fit nicely with the silver hubs and spokes on your new rear.
   
   

Definitely beginning to agree with this; I'll try it and if I don't like it I'll paint them over.

Thanks for the good ideas. I'll update the list.
