Great fat tire bike for the money!
This is our third Mongoose Fat Tire bike in the family. Arrived in great condition and it was pretty easy to assemble. The other two bikes we have have been working for years and I imagine this one will serve us well too. The fat tires will allow this bike to go on almost anything. Just adjust the tire pressure to fit your need.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fat Tire bike for less than $250? "add to cart..."
Reviewed in the United States on July 24, 2017
Color: Silver/BlackVerified Purchase
Simply put, this is a fantastic fat tire bike for the incredible price of less than $250. I've already put in over 60 miles in the last couple of weeks, and it's just a joy to ride. I was pleasantly surprised at the power/torque this bike has when tackling hills. I was a bit worried about how it would handle steep inclines given its weight, but man... the first steep elevated trail bridge I climbed, I easily outpaced others who were riding multi-geared road bikes. This puppy can also easily take off from a standstill with little effort.

I was originally looking for a bike with a smooth ride for suburban/trail biking, and this has proven to be exactly what I wanted. This is by far the least expensive bike I've ever purchased, but it's also the MOST FUN I've ever ridden! I'm sure the $2,000 - $6,000 fat tire bikes would smoke this in a heartbeat, but seriously... for under $250, this thing over-delivers! Rides really well on paved and gravel paths. Plus, it's always a hoot to hear the various comments from others who've never seen a fat tire bike before!

Is it perfect? No. The one thing I would recommend that everyone upgrades immediately is the seat. I know that bike seat comfort is highly personal and subjective, but I found the factory seat to just be rock hard and uncomfortable for any ride over a few miles. So for another small investment of $45 for a quality seat, I'm sitting comfortably at 20+ mile rides with no complaints.

Pros:
- Low cost but solid quality
- FUN to ride. There's nothing like fat tire biking.
- Nice power/torque. Easy hill climbing and quick take offs.
- Fairly easy to assemble.

Cons:
- Factory seat is a bit hard. Recommend replacing ASAP.
- Mine was missing a nut for the front tire assembly... minor inconvenience though.

Summary:
- Looking for an intro to fat tire biking? BUY THIS. You won't regret it.

:::Many updates so please scroll to bottom to see whole review:::

So I've only ridden this bike for about 60 miles so far but here are my initial thoughts: This is a fun bike to ride, I haven't taken it off-road but did ride on some rough side hills for a bit and it rides nice. It's a nice looking bike, much better colors than its brother. As you'll see below I've made a number of upgrades to the bike to make it much more capable. Each is pretty easy to do with basic mechanical skills. If you are interested in what others have done to their bikes search for the thread "The dolo in the (semi) wild".

Suggested setup:
Before you ride it the first time, grease and adjust everything-I pulled the wheels apart and regreased everything. They will come from the factory with a minor amount of grease and most likely will be overtightened.

Upgrades:
 Vuelta MTB Comp Crankset
Ibera Bicycle Triangle Frame Bag, Large
Sunlite Cloud-9 Bicycle Suspension Cruiser Saddle, Cruiser Gel, Tri-color Black
YST Sealed BSA Cupset w/Bearings English Threads
Shimano MF-TZ31 Tourney Freewheel (14-34T Mega 7 Speed)
Kenda Juggernaut Tire 26 x 4.5" Steel Bead Black
Vee Tire Co. Snowshoe XL Fat Bike Tire: 26" x 4.8" 120tpi Folding Bead Silica Compound Black

Tools Needed:
 Sprocket Remover/Pedal Wrench
Park Tool Crank Puller for Square Taper Cranks
Park Tool FR-1 Freewheel Remover for Shimano Freewheels

Edit:21Nov2015
Took it for its maiden ride in the snow. The modifications were great upgrades. I stayed in the lowest gear most of the ride. Was a lot of fun. Tires were running 6 in the front and 8 in the rear. Might need to drop a little lower for additional traction.

Edit:18Jan2016
After about 40 miles of snow riding I have decided to get new tires for increased float and traction. The stock tires are good all around tires but I easily broke them loose in the lower gears. I installed the 4.5 inch juggernaut tires above. There is a good amount of clearance between the frame and chain in the lowest gear. If we get more snow this year I'll be pumped to see what they can do.

Edit: 9Jul2016
I have almost 300 miles on the bike now and I still like this bike a lot. Back in February I rode a fat bike race and it performed well, I on the other had didn't do so great. I've been pulling a cargo trailer and bike trailer a lot the last few weeks and it's a nice ride. I'm really starting to love fat biking especially since it makes all the roads smoother and I don't have to worry about seams in the road to throw me off. I'm planning to take this on RAGBRAI for a day so I'm feeling comfortable taking the bike on long trips though this is significantly farther than any previous one.

Edit: 29Oct2016
The last year with this bike has been great. I took it on one day of RAGBRAI and it survived 74 miles of fun. I have started to pull my cargo trailer more often and it does a great job conquering the hills with up to 120 lbs behind me. Not much more to report other than at 650 miles it's still riding well. Time to get ready for winter riding.

Edit: 25Dec2016
Just installed the 4.8"  Snowshoe XL  tire that I studded by hand using flat top bike studs. The tire is slightly smaller than the 4.5" Juggernaut I run in the summer. Great traction with this combination, I didn't even know I was riding ice until I put my foot down to check.

Edit: 3Nov2017
Wow, it's been awhile since the last update but the bike is still going strong at 1,522 miles. No issues to report.

5.0 out of 5 stars Way better than expected!
Reviewed in the United States on September 27, 2023
Color: Matte BlackVerified Purchase
This bike far exceeded the reviews I read. I had it on the road within an hour after it arrived and started assembly. The instructions are a little inconsistent, but it was so well put together out of the box it didn’t matter. Once it was all together, it rode great! It’s only been six or more hours, but I am really impressed having owned Trek, Stumpjumpers and Canondale.

The only damage was a broken reflector (as if I use them). The stem is a little short but not critical for a bike in this price range.

I would consider this more then entry level at a extremely reasonable price. More to follow. This is first impressions.

I’ve always wanted a fat tire bike and I finally saved up and got my hands on this one. It handles well and it was fairly easy to assemble out of the box. YOU NEED ALL THE TOOLS THAT ARE MENTIONED ON THE BOX. I removed all the reflectors and the mongoose decals because I wanted to show off the beige color.

PS: If you’re going to do this use a box cutter blade and be very patient. If you’re going to remove the aluminum emblem in the front use a thin flat head.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very nice bike, Easy assembly
Reviewed in the United States on February 22, 2024
I’ve always wanted a fat tire bike and I finally saved up and got my hands on this one. It handles well and it was fairly easy to assemble out of the box. YOU NEED ALL THE TOOLS THAT ARE MENTIONED ON THE BOX. I removed all the reflectors and the mongoose decals because I wanted to show off the beige color.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good bike, obscenely priced, poor instructions.

Okay so I am going to start with the Pros:

1) The bicycle frame seems very sturdy, and the black with white accents on the steel frame is sharp - as are the black aluminum rims.

2) The bike is MOSTLY assembled in the package.

3) The wheels are fantastic, you can just ignore so many obstructions with this thing while on the trails.

Now for the CONS:

1) The Price. I don't know who wants to wake up these bicycle companies about it but Covid 19 causing a supply deficit can't be used as an excuse anymore. I am CERTAIN that the supply and demand has balanced out by now. Y'all are just greedy and don't want to go back to the proper cost balance because you can make more this way and it is messed up. The cost of bicycles in general is ridiculous. This bike went for around $400 before Covid and I had to fork over more than $900 that is Corporate Greed at its finest.

2) The weight, Just so you guys know this bike is made with a Steel frame - as they state - and it is HEAVY.

3) The brakes - because of the weight of the bike in particular - take quite a bit of time to engage and bring you to a stop - I recommend using the rear and then the front brakes to ensure a safe stop. If these brakes were on a lighter weight bicycle I am sure they would perform much better.

4) The seat. It is far too firm. Also the seat post assembly does not like to stay where it is, the seat will shift downward if too much pressure is applied to it and that is a problem for people that don't like to smash their scrotum against their seat - which I am certain is most of us.

5) The assembly instructions. They suck, there is no ifs ands or buts about this one... They hand you a "generic" assembly guide and expect you to figure it out. Just based on the simple fact of how grossly they overpriced this product you would expect them to at least provide proper building instructions. But alas that is not the case here.

6) This is a specific one directed to Purolator - and whichever other channels that this bicycle went through to make it to my doorstep - not the seller so I will not blame the seller for this one. BUT there was a hole in the bottom, and side of the box they delivered this in. There were ALSO loose components in the bottom of the box that were necessary. It was a MIRACLE that nothing was lost due to this oversight on the packaging.

In summation:
Solid bike, Great frame and wheels, not without its flaws, RIDICULOUS price, Braking is challenging due to bike weight being so heavy, Seat and Seat Assembly just suck all around. Instructions are wrong and just generalized, and your delivery method needs to be more CAREFUL. My advice, just wait until prices go down, and save yourself the heartache and ridiculous pricing.

This is not a good choice for a bike snob, but you know that already, right? This is a cheap fat bike for someone who doesn’t want to spend 3 to 4 times as much on an “entry level” unit at their local bike shop.

I ride a fairly decent road bike during spring to fall, and picked one of these up for the winter. Yes, it’s a definite step down in terms of overall quality. If I wanted to, I could replace a whole bunch of the components to make it a lot nicer. But is it perfectly acceptable for my 15-minute winter commute? The answer is of course yes. I’m satisfied, especially given the price point I was able to snag it at.
