Lets All Welcome Mongoose To The Table

No idea what that is but it isnt a shifter.  Count the 3 cables coming from the bars and the sram twist shift listed in the spec. :blink:

Yeah, plus the gear cables run along the seat stays, it would make no sense for the mount to be there. Looks like a bottle holder >_<

the seat stays look sooo snappy happy

I'd have given them more credit if they had copied someone else to be honest. Atleast then they would have a bike which has already been tested

We maybe wrong though. It could possibly perform so well it p*sses over most modern, common bikes

Aesthetically......I think not

Again, i don't know why they had to make the stays a mile long - would sell better and probably be cheaper for them to manufacture.

Other than that, looks Ok-ish, but as has been said, it woulda been better to copy a well-known frame's geometry, sold it for peanuts and made a fortune.

It would be a good beginers bike as i dosent limit them to just using it for trials becasuse if you look at the bikes linked on the page in the top right hand corner it is the same frame as all of the their other dirt jump bikes. Hence the non trials specific geo.

But i started out on a 14" XC frame which lasted a year so anything is possible :S

BTW WTF is that on the down tube it aint a shifter because the cable routing doesnt match to it :-

Yeah, but it's gonna be limiting him to some extent? From the pics from that MBUK shoot in Marseille he can go ridiculously big, so if he was on a more "trialsy" frame as opposed to a dirt/street compromise like that, maybe he'd go ridiculously big^2? :(

Back in the day i started doing trials on an XC bike too.....

but now the choices are alot better - if you are a begginer, get an onza . . . or something else i would reckon.. in fact buy ashtons new frame - if you are smart you can finish that baby off for 500 with pretty grand stuff - it doesnt make sense to buy it Im sorry
