The Mongoose Montana Women’s bike arrived in a timely manner. It was easy to assemble. It is lightweight yet sturdy. The seat is can be removed or adjusted without tools. I ride it to work and for errands. It goes smoothly over unpaved areas. I have not done any serious trail riding with it. I thought it was a good buy for the money. And it’s kind of pretty, too!

This friction mount is easy to use. It also doesn’t leave any ring on my windows that would alert would-be criminals to a Garmin being in my car. It also makes it easy to store my Garmin under my seat. And it’s legal in states where the window mount is not legal.

Uncomfortable. The bike comes with the hardest seat I have ever sat on! Also, the way the seat is so far above the handle bars, or Mongoose Montana Womens Mountain Bike seems that way, makes my wrists hurt.

Definitely a great bike for the price!. For [...] you can’t beat this bike! Granted, it’s not near as light as the bike shop mountain bikes, but it’s also a fifth of the price. I couldn’t find another bike for under [...] that had dual suspension AND dual disc-brakes. Now, the partial assembly could have been better, though. Out of the box, the front fork was on backwards, and the derailleurs were totally out of tune! But the front fork was as easy as loosening the nut and turning Mongoose Status 26-Inch Dual-Suspension Mountain Bike around, and the local bike shop tuned the derailleurs for [...] so I now have an awesome bike for right at [...] Overall a great purchase!

GiGi-Hannah’s grandmother. Love it, love Mongoose ShowTime Boys Bike and love it. Super fast shipping. I bought this for my granddaughter who just turned 3 years old. Easy to assemble and great quality for a tricycle. She not only loves the tricycle, but has a blast with the bell. This tricyle is made like the bike of yester years. Super price on Amazon along with the free shipping. I would recommend this product to all who are considering the first tricyles. A+A+A+

Can’t say enough bad things about this bike.. I ride about 5 miles a day from home to school and back. Very flat, good weather, easy ride, and I’m not huge or anything. I figured a cheap bike like this would last a year, and then I’d upgrade. I’ve had Mongoose Montana Mens Mountain Bike a month, and there have been a number of problems.
In general, the parts are flimsy. The seat post clamp won’t prop up the seat. The handlebars are loose because the bolt that holds them comes loose. The bike feels like it’s off balance. Also, while making sharp turns, my toes scrape the front tire. Biggest problem – pedals made of really weak plastic that actually ripped. Drivetrain, shifters, and brakes OK so far, but I’m not expecting much.
Do NOT buy this bike if you expect to ride it on a daily basis. Spend 2X or 3X more and get better quality components.

Great Bike…. We bought this bike for our 11 year old son, even though the box states from 6-11 years old. I think Mongoose Gavel Boys Freestyle Bike would be a bit large for a 6 year old. This bike seems to be more appropriate for 9-15 year olds. The bike has a great graphic design on the middle section. It can hold 200 pounds. I think this is a great buy for a preteen and teenagers. It also had the extra bars for the ride-ons.
