The DH-Team has been an awesome mountain bike for out here in Montana. I ride some very rough trails out here in the Bridger mountains and the Rattlesnake Wilderness. The DH- Team is well designed with a great rear linkage and an adjustable front fork. There is no rattling or buzzing when riding on rough slag. The frame and finish are very good, and my DH-Team looks virtually new after 2 years and 900 miles- mine is "house kept".

I also have the 3 year old XR-Comp (essentially identical to the DH-Team) and an 8 year old XR-450 with 2700 miles on it. If you know Montana, you'll be aware we have some super rocky trails.

I have Cane Creek 3G Thudbuster Short Travel Seatpost, 27.2's on the DH-Team and XR-Comp and a Nashbar Elastomer seatpost on the other one. I also have... Read more

mongoose d-h team bike is very nice for the price. I ride hard and i know that some parts will need to be replaced when i break them. But for an average rider that does not thrash on a bike it should last just fine. For this price i think it's a great bike. The frame is the best part of this bike. It seems to be very well made. Gears are not low enough for extreme hill climbing, but i doubt that many people who would buy this bike will ever climb hills like i am talking about. Bike shiped fast. I recieved it several days early. It only took 45 minutes to assemble.
