That's not just good that's an excellent bike. It's high on my wish list as is most of the top end Mongese like the Teocali, and the Pinn'r. I don't think anyone here was degrading those, and I certainly wasn't comparing my Mongoose Detention with the likes of such bikes. I just get a little erked when people act like you will die on one if you ride it on a Tech level 2 or easy 3. Not all mountain bike riding is done on Tech levels 3 and 4. Tech Levels 1 and 2 are still Mountain Bike trails and are fun to ride wheather it's on a Boot'r or a Wal-Mart Mongoose such as mine.

I hope you guys are all getting some good riding this weekend. My buddy and I are getting the trailer ready for Bike Week at Sturgis SD so I'm stuck at home. (I know off topic)
