Customers like the performance, appearance and sturdiness of the bicycle. For example, they mention it's a very competent all-around bike, the brakes work really well and it'll do decent in chunky and rocky areas. That said, some appreciate the weight and handleability. That being said, they do complain about the derailleur being bent on arrival and the chain breaking out on the trails.

I purchased this bike to commute to lunch during work hours and for the occasional off-road riding.
The bike comes in a large box with a few parts requiring install such as: handle bars, front wheel, reflectors, seat and pedal wheels. Everything is wrapped and protected for shipping. It did not come with assembly instructions but did come with a nice owner’s manual. Installing the parts without assembly instructions was fairly intuitive. The package did not come with tools for the install. You will need a decent assortment of allen wrenches and a ¾” wrench to install the pedals. It took me a little over an hour to unbox and assemble. The allen screws appear to have lock-tite on them from the factory, that is a nice touch ensuring they won’t unscrew.
I am 6’-2” tall and weigh 180 pounds. The large frame fit me perfect. I would say a shorter person could fit on the large frame as well as the seat is lots of room for adjustment. The bike is fairly light which makes it nice to pick up and maneuver if need be.
I have never owned a geared mountain bike so the shifting gears depending on the terrain slope was new to me. Be careful when continually downshifting the gear for uphill riding, the chain will shift off the gears. This happened to me and it took some work to get the chain back on the gears. Proper understanding of the shifting and realizing there is second lever for upshifting will eliminate your chain and gear problems.
Overall the bike rides and feels great. It is very sturdy and the shocks really do a good job dampening the rough terrain. The front and center shocks are all adjustable to your liking. I see myself riding this bike for years to come. The front and rear brakes have some serious stopping power I might add.

taller stem, better reflectors, handlebar extensions, better grips, shortening the width of the handlebars. Bike was doing well, around 2,000 miles. Excellent brakes
Unfortunately, the chain broke out on the road. Waiting for a higher-grade chain.

It looked like a good base frame bike to buy and then maybe add some upgrades, but I don't want to change a thing! Quality components give it a smooth ride. Gears/shifters are responsive and handle well. Aggressive tread also helps with climbing rough terrain. I haven't been able to take it on speedy downhills yet, but so far it feels very stable for what I have done.
Assembly wasn't difficult, but do follow the instruction manual. It gets a little confusing because the manual refers to some parts that do not come with the bike (not needed), so that can be a little confusing. I am a fairly handy person and I did not have any troubles with assembly. You will need a couple of tools. I used my Allen Wrench set and a adjustable wrench. Very excited to hit some more trails!

This cost me many hours of frustration as well as a broken chain on the trails.
Mongoose needs to do better getting this bike to the customers door in running condition.
- Replaced the shifter and derailleur with Eagle GX. Much better now!
- The rear cassette is heavy. I Installed a used DT Swiss wheel with an Eagle GX cassette.
- Installed a used Fox 34 front fork and better rear shock.
- Installed a more comfortable saddle.
- Added a nice dropper post.
Pros:
- Tires have excellent grip
- Shimano hydraulic brakes work really well
- Nice black color
- Reasonably light weight
