Research and Design From Years Ago
Back in the simpler times of 2014 (when Mongoose only made rollerblades), we had the idea to make some bikes out of wood. Fender even sent us a bass guitar to make a bike out of, and it even worked (for a few minutes). Leif showed up in his jumpsuit and aero helmet, and Monty jumped into his trailer. With a laugh, we made a video bravely test riding our weird bikes. The video went viral and ended up on every cycling news site It was great fun for us to see that other folks shared our sense of humor, but then the video vanished a few days later. We'd had some settings wrong on our Vimeo account, and it deleted our video.
