This review is from: Mongoose Maxim Dual-Suspension Mountain Bike (26-Inch Wheels, Silver/Red) (Sports)
Amazon offers free shippment on this bike which caused my attention to buy it because as you guys know it's almost 50Lbs. The expected deliver date was on the 18th - 20th, but I received it on the 16th. That really impressed me.
This bike kinda heavy but I admitted that it looks phat. However, I was having a problem to adjust the U-brake springs with its screws. Be sure you have all the tools, like 6mm, 5mm allens because it doesn't come with them in the shippment. The derailleur is not make in high quality materials that's what I wasn't expected. I think this bike was manufactured by Mongoose because it has its logo on it. Maybe that's why its MGX - MonGoose. The rear suspension is not the same as the picture shown on the web.
In my opinion, I'd rather paid $20s more and get one with Shimano's shifter and derailleur at Target store because I think that is more valuable.
