The History of Mongoose! The Official Story of how Skip Hess decided that BMX bikes needed better wheels - lighter, stronger and way cooler. In September of 1974, he founded BMX Products, Inc. with a single product offering - the MotoMag One wheel. From these humble beginnings, Mongoose was born and became one of the biggest BMX brands in the world.

BMX Products was one of the first bike companies to sponsor BMX racing in the early 1980s, and very soon Mongoose bikes began to dominate the sport. Mongoose quickly gained an international following as well, and in 1983, the French company Motobécane was licensed to produce and distribute Mongoose bikes in Europe.

Racing was a big part of the company's marketing efforts, and the results were impressive. Mongoose won the first-ever ABA National #1 Title in 1980, signaling a move by BMX Products to larger-wheeled, adult models. In the coming years, Mongoose bikes dominated the cruiser racing circuit with six National #1 Cruiser Titles.

"The true history of Mongoose as told by the people who built it into one of the bike industry's most iconic brands."
