5.0 out of 5 stars great deal, January 7, 2009

By	Stanislav Pretetsky (Santa Rosa, ca) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I ride a state-of-the-art 2008 Specialized Epic Marathon, but picked up the 2008 Mongoose Tyax Comp as a present for my father. After some research, I found this bike to be the best deal for the money. Shifts better then my old 2000 Specialized Rockhopper. Rim breaks are not as good as on the old Rockhopper, but yet the stopping power is not any worse then on my friends brand new Specialized HardRock with Disk breaks. The fork does not have much (if any) damping, but again has more usable travel then my old Rockhopper and comparable to new Hardrock.

I am usually good at finding great values in used deals and rarely buy new, but for this price Tyax Comp beats any used bike I could find. If $300 to $500 is your budget -- go for it. (I got mine for $330 with free shipping, amazon.com)

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent for the money, May 9, 2009

By	tk_seggel "Thomas" (San Jose, CA) - See all my reviews

This is a solid beginners mountain bike. For the price, don't expect fancy components (i.e. it has lower end Shimano stuff), but it all works in a pretty nice, solid package. I would highly recommend it.

5.0 out of 5 stars DaveC, June 2, 2009

By	DaveC (Carrollton, Ms) - See all my reviews

If you're looking for a fantastic bike for under 400.00, this is the one for you. Its rock solid. mine performed perfectly out of the box with no adjustments except for the seat and brake levers. Great buy, best bang for the buck!
