Ill start off by saying if your just looking for a commute bike you might as well make it a comfortable ride, right? Well this has it, I was looking for something to get back and forth to work with. This in mind i live where there is a lot of curbs and bad roads etc. so I wanted something that had some suspension. 217 bucks plus i bought the Kryptonite 2 lock (35$) i say you cant beat it. It came the day it said it would, box in perfect condition and only need to adjust cables and attach front wheel, just a smidge of an adjustment to the derauiler and everything was just they way it was intended to be. oh and make sure you clean front disc brake BEFORE the first ride to insure it brakes-in the correct way. hope i help any furture buyers out there.

Looked at a lot of bikes on Amazon before making the decision to buy the Mongoose. Excellent quality mountain bike for the cost. I had it shipped though a second hand company to get to me in Afghanistan (im a deployed soldier), and I ride it daily around the FOB. Was easy to assemble out of the box, and brakes and derailures came pre set and I had no trouble jumping right on and heading down the road! Only issue, the seat is hard and uncomfortable, so a gel seat should be aquired to save your butt.

This Mongoose is pretty not bad right out of the box. I have ridden a few Mongoose bikes prior, and have always like their ergonomics. This one is no different. The paddle shifters are short throw and precise out of the box. The derailer on the main rubs a little when in second, but its a quarter twist of a screw later and its perfect.
Pros:
Out of the box, bike is very well setup- needing only a few minor adjustments for your preference, and size.
Came double boxed from Amazon, both boxes arrived very well even with overnight shipping.
Stock seat is almost usable.
Nice fat tires, with nice irregularly spaced and designed tread.
Zoom front susp. is very responsive. Action is very quick and no clunks from the front!
Rear swing susp. is responsive, quiet, and solid.
WONDERFUL brakes.
15 minutes from arrival to riding.
Cons:
Reflectors on rims look out of place (terrible color, design)
Stock seat is almost usable.
Pedals have plastic hubs.
All and all, Im happy. Ill update this review after I get some miles on her this weekend.
08/18/2012 UPDATE:
I went on a good ride today, putting about 12 miles on the bike from black top to sand. Had some very steep climbs, as well as some switch backs and high speed runs.
PROS:
Great brakes
Great suspension
Great balance, even over mixed rock.
Cons:
Front brake squeeks- but it is a new bike
09/02/2012 UPDATE:
So in the past few weeks I would say I have put just under 100 miles on the bike. Everything works wonderfully, tires dont go flat, shifting is super smooth, and NO BRAKE SQUEAKS!!!
Top speed; for me, seem a pretty solid 35mph- that being on flat paved surface, 3&7 respectively. My dad owns a XR-350 ant it too, works very well- @2500mi on the clock on that guy.
Im happy- she is a keeper!
