About this product
This offering is for a vintage Mongoose ATB (All Terrain Bicycle) mountain bike frame and fork from 1986-1987. Constructed from double-butted Tange steel in a chrome finish, it's sized at an extra-large 21.5 inches for unisex adults. The package includes the frame and fork along with Suntour SR SAKAE components and Dia Compe U-brakes. Buyers have the option to choose additional parts like stem, crank, seatpost, bottom bracket, and headset. It's designed for 26-inch wheels and embodies a retro, old-school aesthetic, suitable for a klunker or cruiser build.
Our take
If you're looking to build out a vintage mountain bike, this Mongoose frame and fork set from the mid-80s offers a solid foundation. The Tange double-butted steel construction points to a durable, quality build, and the chrome finish is a classic look. Being a frame-only package with optional extras means you'll have control over your component choices, which is great for a custom project. However, keep in mind this is an older frame designed for 26-inch wheels and a U-brake setup, so you'll be working with vintage standards. The extra-large 21.5-inch size also targets a specific rider, so ensure it fits your needs.
