Back in my day when I was riding bikes (1990s), Huffy was like a bare bones Toyota Corolla, and Mongoose and Dyno were more like a fully-loaded Toyota Camry in terms of quality, features, reliability, build, and performance. Things could have changed since, but we wouldn't be caught dead riding a Huffy back then. Might not matter as much for a 7-yo, but if the price is comparable, I'd personally go with the Mongoose...especially since he may be riding it until he's 10-12, depending on his size and how fast he grows.

Hope your son has fun!

I am 6'1", and I was riding 20" BMX bikes into my mid 20s. Heck, I'm almost 50 and still ride it sometimes.

I appreciate the nostalgia, but the good brands of the past are practically all just names these days, owned by huge conglomerates and being put on the equivalent of big box store Huffys.

For example, Mongoose was sold to American Group which was sold to Bell, then Brunswick (the bowling ball company), then Pacific Cycle (Walmart version of Huffy), then Dorel, and is now owned by Pon Holdings. Nothing of the original company remains but the name.

All of these bikes are for store pickup only (shipping not available). My local store has a couple in stock of each of these styles. If interested, might want to buy soon as I think this deal will become increasingly YMMV.

I see a couple available locally. I am in market for my kids 12inch and 18-20inch. Walmart has Huffy Rock it for around $78. Any comparison or feedback for mongoose vs Huffy? My kid will be 7 and is around 4ft

Can this be used by girls for regular cycling? I am in the hunt for a 20" cycle but believe the BMX may not be the right style for my daughter.

There is more to it than just calling it a 20" bike. Fork angle and frame length from handlebars to seat also matter. My kid has the older version of the red mag shown here. He is 5' 4" and rides it just fine. In fact I jump on it every so often. It isn't something you would take on a 20 mile ride, but it is great to jump on, go down the neighborhood and have some fun with. Note it is way heavier than a Dyno or Haro, etc that some may remember from back in the 90's, but it is good for entry level tricks

I was also eyeing the walmart at $78. That one has coaster brake (brakes by backpedaling), while the Mongoose has hand brakes. That's one difference I see.

I'll predate you by at last a decade. Diamond back and mongoose were always "mid tier" bikes, huffy was the "poor kids bike" (I know because I had one and was made fun of. ) So I eventually wound up with several diamondbacks. The top tier bikes were like haro, pk rippers, GT, and several others. I have no idea about durability anymore, that was in 1983. But if status matters because of the age, I'd say mongoose. But I've also heard people call my mongoose mountain bike (that I bought at Walmart a while back) called a Wal-goose so maybe they're all the same anymore…they're all built in the same place nowadays!

80s guy here. It was Redline and Mongoose in our crowd. Huffy had some decent Pro Thunder, but they were heavy. I got all excited when I saw mags, but then realized they were metal. You want fiberglass or composite for weight. Kudos to any kids wanting to ride nowadays. It seems like all I see anymore is ebikes, electric scooters, and power wheels. Get those bodies in motion again!
