The expert in setting impossibly high standards is Eric Carter himself - the undisputed King of downhill and 4-cross. So when it came to designing an expert-level, downhill rig, Mongoose called on the King to come up with a race-ready ride that would meet his standards AND the standards of a true downhill junkie. Thus, the EC-D was born. And this year, it gets a larger, beefier 1.5" headtube and the all-new, amazingly smooth, Rock Shox Boxxer Team fork with 203mm of suspension, and a Rock Shox Vivid 5.1 rear shock with external adjustments for beginning and end stroke rebound! Now really...does vertical fun get much better than this?

   * FreeDrive Downhill 6061 aluminum full suspension frame with patented floating bottom bracket, 1.5" headtube, 150 x 12mm thru axle dropouts/disc mount and 7.3-8.4" of rear travel delivers super-stiff and powerful performance for all your near vertical descents
   * Rock Shox Boxxer Team fork with 203mm of suspension soaks up the roughest stuff and the biggest hits like the World Cup champion that it is
   * Rock Shox Vivid 5.1 rear shock offers the perfect amount of cushioning and shock absorption in any terrain
   * TruVativ Holzfeller crankset with Howitzer Team bottom bracket is the benchmark of downhill riders thanks to its incredible strength, stiffness and lightweight construction - and no pedal inserts required
   * SRAM X.9 triggers and rear derailleur make your shifts quicker, faster and more accurate than ever before
   * Funn handlebar, Funn RSX Boxxer direct mount stem and SDG I-Beam seatpost deliver bomb-proof performance
   * Avid Juicy 7 hydraulic disc brakes give you exceptional, all-weather, braking power
   * Kenda Nevegal DH tires penetrate the dirt and hold fast onto loose terrain
   * Burly Sun Ringle Jumping Flea and Abbah SOS hubs with MTX rims supply heavy-duty strength and reliability on downward gradients
