Men’s Mongoose Malus 26-in Fat Tire Bike

The drive train is setup for either snow or sand riding and my son seemed to ride comfortably.

The front and rear disc brakes give you a practical way to stop. Based on how many miles riders get out of this one, it seems to be a very durable pick. It’s made with a steel frame, a four-inch-wide bike-wheel size, aluminum crank arms, and front and back brakes for optimal riding in anything mongoose mountain bikes from sand to snow. The rigid frame works well for snow and sand riding but loses ability in comparison to a suspended mountain bike. The Argus just so happens to be capable enough for trail riding too. Blaze new trails everywhere you go on this Mongoose Dolomite fat tire bike.

He did say that he noticed a difference in the handling with the big tires and it felt kind of like his Kawasaki KLX 110. The components all functioned well with minimal adjustments needed and served their individual duties. The mongoose bmx bike traits of handling and stability will most certainly transition to snow riding as well. Fat tires tend to make riding very stable. They slowed my son’s riding down when needed but functioned as any mechanical brake set would.

That is the seat I bought to replace the stock torture device. The new seat is about 13.5″ inches wide and the horn is a lot shorter. It is a lot more comfortable. As far as I can tell, the Malus and Dolomite are essentially the same bike, just with different rims and colors. I have been looking at high rise handlebars or bar risers to help with the riding position. He did a good video recently on some more budget parts (including hydraulic disc brakes) as well as he has been playing with a Walmart MTB recently.

There is a low level shimano hydraulic disc brake kit that is SO NICE compared to the cable disc brakes. I have a 7 speed Shimano thumb shifter and aluminum mountain bike pedals on the way. The stock brakes kinda suck too so I was thinking about upgrading to Shimano hydraulic brakes in the future.
