Unless you are mechanically handy, do not buy a bike in a box. Also, the wrong pedals were sent in this box apparently they were 1/2″ instead of 3/8″ threads. I found this out when I went to pay $40 to have this bike assembled. We like the bike OK, but it cost quite a bit to have assembled and the pedals were wrong.

I had to send this bike back because the holes for the pedals to attach to the bike were not drilled large enough for them to fit through! I did not bother to replace it after that. Schwinn was good about the return though, good customer service.

This bike was very easy to assemble. I had an issue with the back rim; but, with the excellent costomer support I had a new rim in just two days.

This “freestyle” bike had all the features that my son wanted; “mag” wheels, front and rear axle pegs and it was a MONGOOSE! (a critically important aspect.)
I was very reluctant to buy the bike based on the other reviews here, but I did order it and had it delivered to my office. I was able to put this bike together in about 35 minutes while wearing a suit and tie. No problem at all.
This bike is not super lightwieght, but it’s not really heavy either. A Diamondback “Viper” BMX bike is considerabley lighter, but this bike is OK. It also has the gadget that allows the rider to spin the handlebars and not tangle up the brake cables.
All in all I am very happy I decided to buy this Mongoose and get my son exactly what he wanted his Christmas. After all, how often does that happen?

This bike is very cool, my son loves it, but 5 hours into the assembly I finally realized I needed to take it to a professional to finish putting together. I can follow instructions but the manual is apparently for all bikes mongoose sold over a 5 year period. Very difficult to put together!
