1985 Mountain Goat Trials bike

The Trials model was designed for more extreme obstacle riding and featured a taller bottom bracket (13"), shorter chains stays (16.5") and a steeper head tube. This bike is fully fillet brazed including the high rise stem (there is also a 3/4" headset spacer to bring the bars up higher). Many Trials bikes would have only used a single or double chain ring setup but this one has a three rings.

Bullmoose bars, new production sample

We've been tossing around the idea of having some new bullmoose type bars produced (AKA: Goat Horns). This was our first sample set and there are some things that need changed. These are the same dimension as the titanium versions we have been selling but will be substantially cheaper (110mm reach, 660mm width, 10 degree rise, 10 degree sweep). We have ordered a second sample with some revisions and in chrome plate. Let me know whatcha think.

What is happening at MOMBAT???

Well, the shop is quite busy with nice weather but we are still working on a list of bikes we have received.

In the line are:

-Mountain Goat Trials
-Mountain Goat WTR reverse-reverse team splatter...opposite the normal reverse splatter
-Trek 850 Pink/White
-Fat Chance Tandem

We still have never finished the Prairie Price painted Fisher or the really early WTR so those on in line as well and maybe a few others that I cannot think of off the top of my head.

here are a couple teaser shots of the tandem to tide you over

1996 3D Zerox full suspension

Not the best fs design we have seen but far from the worst as well.

1995 Mountain Goat Route 66

This was from the mid 1990's crop of high end "hybrid" bikes that never really gained momentum. The tires are 45mm wide and just barely fit which makes it hard to argue that these bikes were early 29" wheel bikes. We got this one as a frame and had to build it up with period parts. We had the wheels laying around and didn't really have a good bike for them.....so here they are!

1992 Mantis XCR EC

We have always liked the "composite" construction of these and really like the chrome on both ends. Check out the incredibly long cable noodle for the rear brake!
