Inevitably, wider society was sooner or later going to come into contact with BMX. A significant milestone in this regard was the release of the 1982 film ‘E.T. The Extra Terrestrial’ – directed by Steven Spielberg and featuring a young Henry Thomas as Elliott Taylor. Featuring the iconic scene in which the boys are being chased by cops on BMX bikes, pedalling at speed, tearing around the neighborhood, jumping and eventually taking flight.
We think that this offers our customers the chance to celebrate and embrace the nostalgia of Mongoose, while moving forward in the modern BMX world with taste, style and strength. Hop on the Mongoose MXOne BMX race bike and you’ll be ready to take the track by storm. The MXOne features a durable steel frame with BMX Race geometry and BMX Race bar with Taper leg race fork.
With the continued development of quality products and a vision to grow the sport of BMX, the crew at LUXBMX are super excited to now stock a bunch of Mongoose products. This is the first time that the Mongoose brand has partnered with LUXBMX, a momentous occasion and one driven by our desire to support a brand that has literally been there from the start, a truly original company. These bikes will act as a well-rounded addition to the LUX selection, providing a range of sizes (16 to 20 inch) in the ‘Legion’ model, a 29 inch option (in varying colours) for the ‘Hooligan’ as well as 20 inch options for the old-school classics.
Get ready to look good both on the path and in your camera roll. With throwback features like moto-inspired handlebars and a cruiser-esque frame, the Vega makes it almost too easy. Make May the month to celebrate your little one’s new riding skills!
From a design point, it’s kind of apples and oranges, really. From a weight, geometry and design standpoint it is a better schwinn mountain bicycles frame. Build quality completely depends on other factors that are beyond our, or in fact Mongoose’s control…
The thing rides so good that my daughter just bought a 1999 off of craigslist. Well, from reading the posts, some really stick to old school American made while others do not mind Mid school or things being made in Japan or Taiwan. For now, until I can afford that old school Super goose I will ride this loop tail and have some fun. It doesn’t matter what you’re riding – cargo bikes or gravel – Mongoose has all the bikes you need to get where you need to go. Mongoose has developed a solid reputation for quality bikes at an affordable cost in the cycling industry.
