I like this bike over-all, but I needed to adjust the derailleurs out of the box and quite drastically. Also, the rear brake was completely disconnected. WARNING: MONGOOSE WILL NOT HONOR THEIR USUAL LIFETIME WARRANTY WHEN PURCHASED FROM AMAZON!!!! I had a small defect that's not covered, but I emailed them and it was resolved to my satisfaction.

As far as the lack of kickstand goes, this is a budget/entry level pro mountain bike - most of the time these don't have kickstands because they get in the way. If you're looking for a bike to ride in the city or light retain like gravel or dirt paths, this bike is overkill.

This bike works as advertised, I was easily able to switch over my standard kickstand from my old bike. My only problem was right out of the box the highest gear slipped. I have tinkered with the derauler for two days and have been unable to fix it.

I'm generally happy with this bike and everything on it appears to work correctly. It might just be that I'm not used to the front suspension yet, but at times it seems that the bike isn't built very solidly. But at any rate, I expect to get a lot of good use out of this bike.

This bike is what my man wanted for christmas in 07 and i got it and would you believe it didn't come with a kick stand; so now i have to take it to a bike shop and have them to put one on it. You would think for the money i paid for this bike it would automatic come with a kick stand but i guess i thought wrong on this one.
