Reviews
Below are some positive reviews about Mongoose Returning Featuring Professional Grade HydroformedThe highlights of this are the frame and forks. I thought I would probably need higher bars because I'm 6'1", but these worked out fine. When I started riding, I was quite heavy (270), and the cassette hub started making popping noises. (I've already lost 30 pounds.) The cassette hub never skipped within the first 2 months of riding, but the noises were getting progressively worse. The back hub seems like a Black Ops with no labels. The rear hub has sealed bearings, but on the drive side, there was only one nut and no lock nut. If you tightened the rear axle, that's probably OK, but the bearings were a bit tighter than they needed to be. The KMC chain was an econo model and stretched in a relatively fast time in about 2 months. The rims are like V rims. I don't know where anyone would buy those separately. The rims are working out fine. They seem fairly wide and are 31mm wide on the inside of the rims. I'm not having any problems with the cranks or the stem. I didn't have a bike and am a returning rider to the sport, so the whole package (with pedals added) was race-ready. Then as some of the parts mentioned wore out, I could upgrade it the way I wanted to. The whole original bike with Time ATAC pedals was under 23 pounds which was impressive. The BB height is 12.5" which works fine for me on modern tracks. On an old school track I liked a lower BB, but I didn't have any problems. The back-end of the frame seems very sturdy in the dropout area. The front hub seems very durable and working fine. They gave some attention to details. I like that they did 32 spoke holes on the front, and 36 hole on the rear wheel. Many parts have black color. For the price range I'd give it 5 stars because the frameset is good, and I can upgrade it as I like when I have the money.
The bike looks GREAT!!!!It came with all of the parts, very easy to put together, rides very smooth and it feels great, very easy to adjust the breaks too.Just anyone can put this bike together in no time.I bought it for my 14 years old son, but I really think this bike is good from the age 10 and up.Very light and satisfying to ride!
Was very easy to put together. I read the reviews before i purchased it but its true, the seat is overall the worst. Might as well be sitting on a piece of wood. No way to adjust the seat. I purchased a seat to replace it but i ordered the wrong seat. Im about 5’8 and its a bit small for my overall liking. Just gave to one of the kids.
