With the brand history done, let’s review why Mongoose bikes are outstanding. In October 2021, an Amsterdam-based company, Pon Holdings, acquired Dorel Industries to form a leading bicycle company with a revenue stream of over 2.5 billion euros! Despite this acquisition, though, Mongoose still sells
under Pacific Cycle Inc. In 1985, Mongoose was sold to an American group and marketed by Service Cycle, a subsidiary of American Group. Economic downturns, competition, and strategic acquisitions saw Mongoose sold several other times, including to Pacific Cycle in 2000 and Dorel Industries in 2004.
For riders looking to learn tricks and stunts, then a freestyle bike is the correct choice. Intermediates usually get new cranks, wheels, and pedals–but the frame and other components remain. This ride features a stable and reliable Samox 3-piece aluminum crankset for efficient and flex-free power delivery as you race across the race track. Plus, Mongoose has completed this BMX build with a robust and stylish finishing kit. BMX bikes have varying frame sizes with different top tube lengths to enable riders of various heights to enjoy BMXing. Mongoose bikes have top tube lengths up to 21.77 inches.
The 30mm profile rims, optimised for use outdoors in blustery conditions or so we’re told, will come in both 20” and 24” and are tubeless ready. Beside the fact that we’re hearing rumours of major brands having trouble keeping the tire on the rim during ‘elite level’ corner testing, we still like the idea of tubeless race bikes. Getting rid of that rotational weight has got to be a major advantage! The rims will also be available with a basalt braking surface for the shrinking group of riders who still like V-Brakes.
Our flagship Tyax series has been designed to provide riders with everything they need on challenging climbs, winding switchbacks in the XC world! Whether you’re looking for a men’s 29er or women’s 27.5″, youth 24″ bike, they have got your back (and wheels). So I got my hands on the 2018 Mongoose Title Pro XXL BMX racing bike! At $250 the bike is super affordable but it also means that the quality of the parts are definitely not high end. The frame on the other hand is put together really well.
You can take on a variety of outdoors with a Mongoose bike and that makes them good. The Elite 24’s drivetrain consisting of 42×18 teeth with a two-piece aluminum crank, efficiently transfers your pedal input into motion. This drivetrain also enables you to ride at a higher cadence, thus increasing the time it takes for muscle fatigue to kick in. Mongoose has been a dominant player in the BMX bike industry for more than 45 years. Logically, that length of time is more than enough to prove the reliability of Mongoose bike models. In September 1974, Skip Hess started BMX Products, Inc. from his California home garage.
This complete bike is made for entry level BMX racing but the frame is good enough to keep and upgrade as you progress. It features internal cable routing on a lighter but stronger hydroformed and butted professional-grade aluminum frame. Hydroforming is a process of using fluids under pressure to vary bicycle tube frame shapes and thickness.
In its early years Hess recalled that about 600 frames per day were produced at its Chatsworth, Los Angeles location. The Mongoose Title Elite complete bike has been around for a while but we’ve finally been able to get our hands on one thanks to the Aussie distributors PSI Cycling. When the Title Elite hit the market it caused quite a stir, and it’s easy to see why.
Mongoose bicycles is back in the racing game (as reported by News on June 6, 2017), and has seen big success with their “Title” line of complete bikes. A local dad came up with a revolutionary wheel design from the confines of a garage. Their innovative, durable, high-quality, cost-effective bike frames and components soon thrust them into global recognition.
