Excellent bike for the money
I love it. Great bike for me. Since I had read in reviews that the bearings were all basically dry, I tore it apart to redo them when I first got it. I found though that there was some grease in all bearings, though I did add more. I have had zero issues with the quality of the brakes and shifting. Everything has functioned flawlessly with one slight exception. The front brake caliper was adjusted slightly to the left causing a slight rub as the disk rotated in the calipers. The caliper was easy enough to adjust, so it now makes no contact and thus no noises or interference at all. The brakes do stop well enough, but not o a dime. The only other noise is the tires themselves. They do have some road noise, but not extreme. Being a big guy at 310 lbs, this is a great source of exercise for me, but there were 2 musts. 1. I installed a better seat. 2. I installed new handlebars with a 5 in rise. Both of which made it SO much more comfortable to ride. I don't plan on doing any actual mountain or trail riding, but on city streets and park trails, this has been great. I would highly recommend this bike for the money.

    Good value, sturdy ride
    I've put about 40 miles on the bike so far and it has ridden well. Definitely going to want to upgrade the saddle, makes riding much more comfortable and able to go longer distances. Bike is also very sturdy I go about 6'3 370 and this bike holds me well, the fat tires make a big difference in supporting a larger rider and give a good workout because more effort to pedal than standard tires. For the price can't beat it but will require upgrades over time such as the brakes and shifter but overall I've had no issues with stock ride so far.

    Great bike at a reasonable price!
    great price on a great bike. This is the base unit all the other color variations are built around. Pkg was well packed, arrived without a single blemish, with all assembly parts and owners manual included. Must have metric allen wrenches and box/openend wrenches. The only glitch in the unit I received was the front brake cable was routed incorrectly. Was able to reroute it by unbolting the front caliper assembly from the forks, correctly routing the cable assembly around the front of the bike and reattaching the caliper to the fork mounts. All of the cable assemblies were properly preset and worked fine. Removing and reattaching the front caliper assembly didn't effect the settings at all. Overall a great bike for a great price. $50 less than the same exact bike at Amazon.

    Would definitely recommend and purchase again!
    The price was cheaper than anywhere else online or in store, the bike arrived earlier than expected and in excellent condition. This is a great starter bike that can be upgraded, this is not your Mongoose from the 80s and you will want to upgrade the brakes because the ones on it are awful. Over all Im very pleased with the purchase. Just FYI I also purchase a Mongoose Malas, Malas and Hitch and Dolomites are all the same bikes just different color schemes. Happy Riding!!
