 "Good Buy" 2009-12-30
By Joe Buyer
It's a nice sturdy bike and fairly easy to assemble. My son likes it a lot. The only shortfall we noticed was that it doesn't come with a kick stand. Otherwise, it's great.

 "Nice Style for a Child; Manual Stinks!" 2009-12-28
By Sibylle Mangum (DC/VA/MD)
My son (11 years old) LOVES this bike. I like the style but the manual sucks! It is not written in a manner that makes it clear which model it is referring to when detailing the various setups. I had a hard time figuring out the correct configuration for increasing the tension for the rear brakes..... my son eventually wrapped the line and used one of my hair bands to hold it to the handlebars to decrease the slack allowing enough tension for the rear brake to pull! I refuse to take this bike to the shop to pay upward of $100 for a $120 bike!

By Tuan Nguyen (Houston)
I'm 40yrs old and bought this bike for my 8yr old. Growing up, I remember being in love with Mongoose bikes. Unfortunately, the Mongoose bikes of today are nothing like they used to be.



The bike came with missing parts ( misc bolts, screw to fasten the seat); the owner manual is NOT specific to the bike model; calls to customer service were answered by a call center person who is NOT at all familair with the bike.



I guess this is the trade-off we must pay for having stuff manufactured cheaply overseas (China).

The bike say for a 6 to 11 year old. My son is almost 14 and he loves it. Not a bad price for this bike.

 "Great Bike..." 2009-03-19
By Monica Fiallo (Miramar, FL Florida United States)
We bought this bike for our 11 year old son, even though the box states from 6-11 years old. I think it 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.

 "Good bike for the price" 2009-10-24
By Val
It looks nice and the quality is pretty good. I bought this for my 8 year old daughter and she is quite happy with it. The only problem she got with it is that the shifting wheel is hard to turn for her.

 "Good value for the price" 2009-10-17
By Manish Deliwala (Phoenix, AZ)
Don't expect great finishing quality. The packaging being poor, even though ships Fedex, the product had parts (pedals) poking out of the package. The frame had scratches, and the handle was definitely not brand new with defective threading and old sticker / glue of some kind. The pedal's threading was not smooth so expect to use WD-40 in a few areas. Due to this experience, if you can buy at a store for a good price, I would highly consider that.



Overall assembly is easy, but I wish the pre-assembled frame / rear tire and brakes did not need adjustments which would require opening them, as playing with brakes adjustment can be tricky.



This being 'called' a mountain bike, the tires threading ensure that this is not a smooth road bike. The minimum height of the bike from ground to the seat is approx 2 feet 6 inches, and the maximum height adds another 6 inches.



As always, the kid loves it regardless.

 "Good starter bike with gears" 2009-09-23
By K. Ratakonda
We bought this as the first bike for my 7-yr old daughter. It was not packaged well -- the paint was chipped and the rear tire had a flat. Putting it together was easy - every thing is pre-assembled except handle, pedals, seat and front tire. It took 30 mins to do including adjusting the breaks (I didn't bother adjusting the gears as she will be using it as a single speed bike for the first couple of months while she learns). Fixing the flat meant a trip to the k-mart. I couldn't easily find the dimensions of this bike in the description or else where -- as a reference, I needed to set the seat to its lowest point for my 53" daughter. She has been using this for the last 1 week and it seems to be holding up well so far to a few crashes - including running into a wall when she forgot to use the brakes. I am hopeful that it will hold up for another 2 years until she outgrows it.

 "6ood bike, but they didn't pay attention to details" 2009-09-05
By J. L. Cornell (lower michigan)
I bought this for my 7 year old, since she recently did a 10.5 mile bike trip on her single speed bike. She needed something bigger w/gears. This bike has what she needed, but these are the downfalls... The controls are too hard to use. The brake levers are designed for an adult, a child's hand can't reach them very well. Even the grip shifter is to hard to use. I also don't like the gearing. To me, it needs a larger sprocket in the front. It appears she peddles almost at the same rate as her old bike. I'm going to take to a local bike shop and see if there is anything they suggest. If she could shift, it would be a good mountain bike. If it was geared better, it would be good for asphalt riding. Overall, the bike is decent, what you would expect fo [...]

I bought this for my 9 y/o sister who is 5'2." She said that it is a little big for her, but she is able to ride it. She likes the bike a lot and has been very happy with it. For the price, I think its is a very good value.

 "Amazing, better than k'nex and lego - top notch, extremely educational" 2008-02-03
By C. Dillman (North Yarmouth, Maine USA)
This toy is great, built several models with my 7 yrs old that was rapidly growing bored with lego & k'nex kits.



The compressor operation is impressive with all of the pneumatics working perfectly. All cylinders are clear and their workings can easily be explained to a younger audience.



A real great legacy toy that will be used for years.

 "Bike in a box" 2009-12-28
By Baron von French (Tallahassee, FL)
Bike arrived mostly assembled in a retail box. The bike had several deep scratches on it and the nuts and bolts needed to assemble the bike were tossed in the box loose. At first I thought this was a return, but every still seemed to have factory wrapping. Why they could not put all the nuts, washers and bolts in a bag is beyond me.



The parts that were not assembled were not the most simple of items (handle brake, seat, tires, etc.). The instructions were terrible. When it came to the seat, something I figured would not be too difficult, I had to guess as to which parts to use as the instructions were not clear. Being a pretty handy guy, I was getting frustrated as I can be a tad OCD when it comes to making sure things are assembled correctly. My Father-in-law came over and he could not make heads or tails of the instructions either. Now that both of us were stumped was exceptionally rare.



Having parts left over, I kept them as I was sure I would figure out where they went to. They went to nothing structural as I would not let my kids play on an unsafe toy, but the instructions gave no indication as to where they went. I finally did find when they went as I noticed the grip on the hand break had an spot for a tightening screw and nut.



Over all, the bike is very solid and my daughter loves it. It wasn't too hard to assemble, but clearer instructions would have made it a snap. I do wish they had invested in better packaging so that the amount of scratches and the risk of parts falling out of the box in shipping would be reduced.

 "Great first bike" 2009-11-08
By Andreina Castro V
Not too lightweight, have not assembled yet. I bought this one for christmas. I later saw it at Sports Authority and my daughter tried it. She is 4 and 102 cm tall (do your math in feet & inches)and she reached the pedals with no problem. I guess this will do a good first bike. In my time Huffy was a good bike, at least for what it is expected to do: teach a young girl ride one

I had a hard time figuring out the correct configuration for increasing the tension for the rear brakes..... my son eventually wrapped the line and used one of my hair bands to hold it to the handlebars to decrease the slack allowing enough tension for the rear brake to pull!
