Today’s Bike Of The Day is a red Mongoose Title Pro XXL ridden by Steve Silman! It’s a nice blend of a few stock and 3rd party high end parts. He even put some custom decals on the frame and that red and white color scheme is fresh! Be sure to give this bike a rating in via the sliders below
When I was a young teenager me and a good school friend called mark used to ride together. As I got older we sort of lost contact. Forward 20 + years later i was extremely over weight so I decided to lose it and join a gym and became very successful at it and then came the lockdown all gyms closed. I got in contact with mark who still rides to this day and with his influence got me very interested in riding again and being out of riding for so long he gave me a lot of advice. I have always been a big fan of mongoose so the title xxl was the choice for me. Being in lockdown gave me time to bring myself back up to date then the modifications happened
Now the lockdown restrictions have been relaxed the tracks are back open and now like the gym once was this has become once again at 40 my new sanctuary and now training with every spare minute to race next year against my good pal.SHOUT OUT TO, Keith at the jump club for the coaching. Source bmx. Crucial bmx for top advice and my new parts
