Is This Particular Mongoose Bike a Good Mountain Bike?
So I am looking at buying a new, fairly inexpensive mountain bike and I have bike shops and chain stores to get an idea of who carries what. Based on my online research, there seems to be a huge stigma associated with buying a bike from an x-mart and I understand why from reading the posts.
However, this particular Mongoose bike seems to have good quality components and many features that I would not be able to afford with only $500 at a LBS (local bike shop). This is my first bike and I don't have much more to spend than that and this bike caught my eye.
Take a look and I appreciate everyone's advice.

this bike is heavy, and does not have comparable components to a hardtail in the same price range. a comparably priced hardtail will take more of a beating as well. there is NO GOOD FULL SUSPENSION RIG PRICED UNDER $1000. the rear suspension on this bike is very inefficient, which means you will work harder when pedalling! go back to your LBS and get a hardtail! unless you're doing downhill or aggressive freeriding, the hardtail will suit you just fine! if you are doing downhill or freeriding, this bike will be busted by September..
