Mongoose Bicycles History

Originally developed in 1974, Mongoose has managed to evolve from a components manufacturer to a fully-fledged bicycle maker.

Currently, the company which merged with Pacific Cycle in 2001 is a subsidiary of Dorel Industries. Unlike many of its rivals, this company has managed to maintain its focus on specialized BMX and mountain bicycles.

The firm has expanded into other areas of production but these still take a secondary priority to its core product line-up. By maintaining its expertise in the fields of BMX and mountain bikes, Mongoose can very well boast that it is one of the few firms in the industry, which heavily specialize in such production techniques.

Mongoose Bicycles Special Features

Mongoose has a strong advantage in the production of BMX and Mountain bikes because it has managed to heavily utilize the use of lightweight materials such as magnesium with highly reliable designs.

The use of revolutionary technology has allowed the company to experiment with a range of unorthodox designs. However, its core product lineup is always well known for simplicity and durability.

The heavier focus on off-road cycling also means that the components produced by Mongoose are typically more rugged and more resistant to wear and tear.

Interesting Facts

Mongoose was one of the first companies to perfect the use of lightweight materials, especially Magnesium in the production of bicycle frames and components. One of its first products dubbed the "Motomag" wheel, was renowned for the fact that it was produced of cast magnesium.

"Proud owner of my second Mongoose bike (the first was stolen) and I must say that I have never actually been able to ride one that can provide such awesome value for money. My personal favorite is the Meteore Elite; busted my savings on it but it was worth it!..."
