Mongoose Ripsaw
Hey guys, just purchased this bike. After working some magic with customer service I ended up getting the price dropped from $699.99 down to $253.99 (price matched off Walmart and a bunch of coupons and offers later.). This will be my first bike and am going to use it for hunting state land and light trail use. Hopefully it’s a decent one!

The bike has decent specs and should be fine for light duty. Think of it as a starter bike to see if you want something nicer in the future.
Is the bike really 39lbs?

For 270 bucks I can’t complain. I have ATVs for my toys I got this as a tool for weight loss and to have something to do after work that. Think of the 39lbs as extra effort for weight loss 😂😂

The biggest cons I noticed in the specs is that they do not list what the wheels or brakes are.
