Mongoose Domain Dual-Suspension Mountain Bike

Featuring a new frame design for 2007, the 21-speed Mongoose Domain all-terrain bike is built to handle the toughest trails in the mountains, across the desert flats, and throughout the urban jungle. Ideal for the intermediate rider for everyday use–either men or women, 5 feet or taller–it offers a full (or dual) suspension, which adds a heavy-duty shock absorber to the back wheel, in addition to the front fork suspension. Full suspension provides more comfort and greater control as you attack the trails. Other features include a lightweight aluminum-alloy frame, nimble cross country suspension fork, SRAM MRX, and large, chunky tires for rough trails and other rugged surfaces.

Key Features:

• Alloy front triangle dual-suspension frame is more lightweight than a standard steel frame and provides good shock absorption on bumps, rocks, and rougher terrain
• Cross country suspension fork allows for a smoother and faster ride than a traditional bike fork
• Flat MTB handlebar with stem and bar ends offers multiple riding position options
• Alloy handbrake levers are more durable and have a more stylish finish
• Forged-steel three-piece crank offers better pedaling performance and is much more lightweight
• 21-Speed SRAM MRX shifting system offers efficient and precise shifting
• Front and rear alloy linear pull brakes provide sure stopping power
• 36-spoke alloy rims are lightweight and rustproof

About Mongoose
In 1974, BMX Products, Inc., later to be known as Mongoose Bicycles, launched from a humble garage. The first of its kind, the BMX bicycle was named after bicycle motocross and was designed to fit the needs of the rough-and-tumble dirt-racing pastime that took its toll on wheels and bicycles. The heavy-duty, one-piece cast-aluminum Mongoose Motomag wheel was soon born, and it was the first competition-ready BMX bicycle available. Skip Hess, while in Australia pursuing his motor sports passion, came into contact with a strange and unusual cat-size animal–the mongoose. Known for its passive nature while unprovoked, yet vicious and aggressive enough to kill a threatening Cobra twice its size, the Mongoose impressed Hess, who quickly registered the Mongoose trademark for his new bicycle racing frame.

The Expert BMX bicycle model, which is still a cornerstone of the Mongoose BMX line today, was introduced in 1980. Shortly after, Mongoose captured the first ever ABA National #1 Cruiser Title. Previously known for the 20-inch bicycle, this title signaled the re-direction of Mongoose bicycles to larger-wheeled, adult-sized models. Several years later, Mongoose continues to dominate the cruiser racing circuit with six National No. 1 Cruiser titles, leading to the introduction of adult-sized Mongoose all-terrain bicycles (ATBs).

In 1992, Mongoose pioneered the full-suspension market with the introduction of the Amplifier. This design is still the most-copied suspension design in the market. Several year later, Mongoose launched the Newman adult bicycle frame, which is proven to be 15% stronger than any other bike frame in the market. The design, while functionally sound, also raised eyebrows because of its distinctive look.

In the next few years, Mongoose increased its marketing focus to dominate the bicycle industry, and more important, extend beyond it. The Mongoose brand marketing initiative makes more than 100 million impressions. Mongoose’s brand awareness increased by over 130% in 1999 and solidifies the No. 2 market share position in units and dollars. Mongoose was acquired by Pacific Cycle, LLC, and continues to grow and prosper with more than 40 models of BMX, mountain, trail, freestyle, jumping, comfort, road, and cyclocross bikes.
