Mongoose used to be a good BMX company but was sold years ago. It is now a company that mass produces bikes that you buy at Wal-Mart etc... The modern day Huffy if you will. Often they are fitted with very low line componentry and sold for $100 or less. I'm almost certain that's what you'd be getting with this deal. Not worth a 2 year gym committment. The only exception I've seen is with Performance cycles. They sometimes take a Mongoose frame and fit it with very high level componentry for around $1200 bucks. I KNOW that's not what your gym is going to be doing.
