Well I have been out of the bike scene for a while but I didnt realize Mongoose sold out and sells cheap ass bikes at Walmart
Much like I wouldnt buy drivetrain components at walmart (if they sold them that is), I wouldnt buy some cheap downhill bike there either. I would glady pay $3K for a well built and sturdy bike. After all it is my life that is at stake and I wouldnt want to risk that to save some dough. Anyway, if you buy your bikes at walmart stay off the trails im riding on!!!
