The Mongoose Impasse is built to last and is more affordable than other mountain bikes in the same range. The 29-inch wheels make this bike suitable for adult riders who are between 5’4″ to 6’2″ in height. The low price, however, means these bikes don’t have the huffy beach cruiser stiffest frames or quality features. A Mongoose discount bike will be OK for you if you want an entry-level bicycle to use for work, store, or neighbourhood rides. But don’t get me wrong, properly taken care of these bikes can serve you well for a long time.
The bike’s Shimano STRS-785 STI hydraulic brake and shift levers allow for instant stopping, keeping customers safe.

Nevertheless, we offer the Mongoose Premium Bikes for Men and Women Mountain Bike with by far less than that price as a high-end bike in this article.
