The Mongoose Raid BMX Bike is a great buy for young riders and beginners and with an entry level price of under $170, does not cost much more than traditional bikes. As far as Mongoose BMX bikes go, this is a fantastic beginner’s choice and solid enough considering the price.

Also, the handlebar brakes can be too stiff as well which may make it more difficult for younger riders to use at first. You may also run into an issue when it comes to tightening the handlebars. The pedals don’t feel all that reliable, so you may want to upgrade to newer ones in the future.

This seems to be better if the one you order arrives intact and you are able to follow the instructions. The instructions are not clear and having an Allen key is useful. Once assembled the bike looks good and allows children to get used to riding bikes.
