Dwayne Taylor, LRC/Mongoose Team Manager
One of the perks of being sponsored by a classic BMX brand like Mongoose is occasionally we get a sneak peek of new products that we’ll be riding. This past month, the La Revolution Café (LRC)/Mongoose race team had the unique opportunity to take part in a photoshoot for the Mongoose 2020 Title Series Race bikes, which was held at the world-famous Chula Vista BMX track located inside the Olympic Training Center in scenic Chula Vista, California.
The beauty of scheduling the photoshoot in SoCal was that the weather could not have been better. The first part of the shoot was with Mongoose Factory Pro Justin Posey and his custom Mongoose Title Elite XXL. And man did he make things look easy! Justin has style for miles and speed for days, and his fully built 2020 Title Elite looks amazing! The new black and white C&G with orange accents looks lean and mean, and the new tapered headtube feature really puts this bike on par with some of the best bikes out there. Justin rides with so much speed and power, yet makes it look effortless. Most importantly, he really looked stoked and comfortable on his new race build.
For second part of the day, Mongoose invited its amateur teams to take part in the shoot – both Factory LRC/Mongoose and the LRC/Mongoose Squad. A majority of our riders don’t live near Chula Vista, so we had team members arriving from all over California and Nevada to see and ride the new 2020 Title and Title Elites completes on the national track.
It was awesome to see the team looking over the new bikes and instantly noticing all the small changes and improvements. The riders were all smiles from ear to ear, and were already talking about how they are going to build theirs when it arrives. The entire LRC crew is looking forward to running the new bikes for the final races of the season and into 2020.
Big shout-outs to everyone at Mongoose Bikes for really putting a lot of time and effort into this new line. We appreciate all their support, and look forward to riding Mongoose for years to come!
