The Mongoose Tribe was founded by Eric Carter in 2006. The idea was to form a group of riders i.e. "Tribe Members" that love to ride, hang out together and have a good time. Riders benefit by Eric "EC" Carter's relationship with his sponsors such as Mongoose, SRAM, Kenda and TLD. EC is also on hand to share his infinite riding knowledge with riders and is just an all around good guy.

Riders are chosen by Eric Carter through Sponsorhouse.com. A rider submits a resume to Eric's sponsorhouse account and is approved based on their riding resume. By participating in the Mongoose Tribe riders can purchase a Mongoose frame and kit, Mongoose Tribe jersey and THE helmet. Click here to visit the Mongoose Tribe page on Sponsorhouse.
