Mongoose Maxim Womens Dual Suspension Mountain Bike (26 Inch Wheels) – Reviews

The bike looked great and I tested it myself. It was a gift for my girlfriend. The first day she rode it the front wheel came off and she had to get stitches on her chin. No clue why or what happened all I know is I haven’t heard the complaining lessen. Oh Well.

If I could do it all over again, I would stay away from this bike that I purchsed for my g/f. It arrived with the box damaged, a big hole in the box where the peddles punctured through leaveing a hole. The stem wedge must have fallen out of that hole in the box, so I couldn’t even attach the handlebar. I had to get another one to make it work. Parts were a bit bent. The paint was skuffed/removed on parts of the bike from all the parts rubbing on each other in the box. Finally after assembly, the inner tube would not inflate due to a tear. If it were a smaller item I would have sent it back, but I was just tired of the hassle after making some of the repairs and needed the bike for the weekend. I was expecting more from a company with this brand name stamped on it, maybe its just a cheap bike but even cheap bikes shouldn’t come with all this BS.

I bought this bike for short trail riding and family time…..not to fly down a mountain and do stunts. I did not purchase through Amazon as the local outdoors store had it on special for $74.99. It was already assembled and all I had to do was tweak the tightness of the bolts and adjust the brakes for rubbing the tire instead of the rim. For what I paid I get a decent bike to ride with the kids (I don’t need speed to keep up with a preschooler) or when we go camping. If my skill and fitness level/ interest gets higher as the kids get older…..I will definately have to get a more comforable bike (probably a road bike) for those longer rides. I’ve never had a high end bike….and found this a little better than the last schwinn cruiser I owned….I love the squishiness of the suspension.

This bike was a gift– very nice looking– and I was excited to use it! Upon riding for the first couple of times, I found my feet hitting the front feel upon every turn. I am average height– 5’4″ so it is not because I am too tall or have big feet. The bike has to be returned =( or at least exchanged. This is a safety issue as far as I’m concerned.
