Review: Great bike at a great price! - **Update from last review** We went head and ordered a 2nd exact same bike for our other son. This time we got a desertcart return (One at a discount). The bike had a few minor imperfections, slightly bent front wheel (2min fix w/ a spoke tool) and a bent right side crank bearing (Pretty simple and painless fix if you know how to repair it). Also did a rear tire coaster brake conversion to a freewheel since my son wanted a bike that could back pedal. Am I happy with both bikes, YES. Are my sons happy, YES. If I had to buy them both over again, YES I would buy them. ***First post*** Read lots of reviews and to be honest. Allot of folks should just buy a preassembled bike if they can’t read directions. Very strait forward and easy to put together. Make sure you have all the tools needed before starting on this, plan on it taking 20-40mins depending on your mechanical skill level. Does Not come with a kick stand! No problem, we pulled the adjustable one off my sons old bike that we got on desertcart for $5. I will be buying another one of these again for my other son when his B-Day comes around. If he behaves 😉 Absolutely yes a good buy!
Review: Excellent bike for the price - Reading some of the reviews I was expecting a pretty cheapie bike, but was pleasantly surprised. My son outgrew his old bike and I had a used on I planned on sanding down, painting and putting back together. When I priced out the materials, paint they were almost the price of this bike! Using up a weekend fixing it up made less sense than buying an entire new bike. Fast forward to receiving this, it was very well packaged and an absolute cinch to set up. I'm really surprised at the complaints of installation difficulty. It's not rocket science putting it together, and that's with not even reading the instructions. If you are even a tiny bit handy and have a socket set this shouldn't take you more than 10-20 minutes to put together. I added a push bar which immensely helps in pushing my son, who at times just doesn't have the muscle to make it up hills. Cranks and wheels turned smoothly and perfectly, brakes worked well, my son was very happy. The only suggestion I'd make is for Mongoose to include a cheapie bell, for what probably costs pennies at scale I think it would make kids happy. But no biggie, I'll just spend a few bucks and buy one. Overall a great bike for a kid, especially someone who you know will grow out of the bike in 2 or 3 years anyway.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does the bike come already assembled?**
A: Front wheel and handle bar alone assembly is not easy. And the instruction that comes with the product is not clear at all

**Q: Does this bike have a kick stand?**
A: No

You don't need a kick stand until the training wheels come off.  There's a center hole for a standard type and other other after market models that will work just fine for under $20.

**Q: Dose the  bike comes with training wheels**
A: yes, it does have its training wheels

**Q: Does this bike have coaster brakes and caliper front brake?**
A: Yes, it has both. Hopefully you get all the parts to the bike tho...parts were missing to the one I purchased and when I reached out to Amazon they never responded. Good luck

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Happy son...Happy Dad
*by B***R on August 12, 2019*

Ok so im gonna start off by saying all the other reviews of this bike were by people who have 0 experience with ANYTHING mechanical. I had zero issues putting this together in the 45 minutes it took me. That included unpacking the bike, greasing all the bearings and putting it together. The other reviews that complained the handle bar stem came upside down were only half right. Yes they came packaged upside down...you have to loosen the bolts and adjust the stem to sit correctly on the bike then tighten the bolts back down. They package them like that to fit in the box. If you have no mechanical knowledge of the simple things (like a bike) you shouldn't be attempting to put one together! Anyway...For $99 im happy with the quality. The rims are true and the frame is solid! No problems for me and the best part is....My son loves it! Win win for this Dad.
