Their bicycles are known for their build quality and durability, which is very important for BMX and MTBs. Their reputation is well-deserved but also counts as their weakness. Older models, such as the Mongoose Element bike, are harder to tag since they are no longer available in most retail outlets. This is when the pre-owned marketplaces become useful aside from purchasing Mongoose bikes cheap. We’ve looked at both a Greg Herbold Miyata from the early 90s and a late 1990s Ibis Bow-Ti before. Also on display were a number of Santa Cruz Syndicate racing machines, countless other classic race bikes from the Velo Cosmos/Dirty Sundays collection, and more. Tour the town or ride dirt trails through your favorite park, a hybrid bike can handle it all. To buy a Mongoose bike online you can use our Click and Collect service. Simply enter your post code at the checkout then choose your closest 99 Bikes store.
