The Mongoose Elite bike is great value for money. It features a heat treated alloy frame combined with a SR Suntour XCM 100mm travel front fork and uses Shimano FD-C050 front derailleur, Acera rear derailleur and Suntour cranks.What MTB Magazine Review "Out of all four test bikes (Giant Yukon - Decathlon Rockrider 6.3 - Revolution Cuillin Disc), the Tyax Elite feels most at home on man-made singletrack, and this is due to its fork. With the fork not rebounding over every ripple, you can decend faster and more sure-footedly. It even climbs easier because the fork tracks bobbly surfaces better. And on technical sections the very wide bar and well-balanced feel make for great slow-speed stability. Brakes and gears are only slightly more low-rent than its rivals, and the differences don't add up to anything you can feel through the seat of your pants. In fact, because it handles better on technical climbs, it feels as if its gears had a 34T bottom cog instead of a 32. The Kenda Komodo tyres are reasonable 'all condition' treads, a bit like a budget Fire XC Pro." See the detail at wiggle.co.uk
