This post prompted an email deep dive. I bought a Mongoose Malus (basically the same) back in 2015 for $177 and rode the crap out of it. I eventually gave it to my dad and got an Argus Sport that I still have, put on some even fatter tires, a Box 1x9 drivetrain, and it's still getting used regularly.

All that to say, fine starter fat bike but oof inflation. Plan on lubing everything and replacing the bottom bracket.

I think the Ozark Trail 26" M.3 Ranger Fat Tire Bike is probably a better deal. Cheaper, better drivetrain, and has an alloy frame.

I bought one of these about 7 or 8 years ago for somewhere around $225. Decent for the price. A bit clunky and quite heavy but shifted well and rode nicely. Definitely a low end fat tire bike but not bad for beach riding where you don't want to use a more expensive bike.

Bro we bought this bike from toys r us for like $120 and back then we was like wow this is a premium bike compared to the regular mongoose bikes starting at $80. Inflation is insane, does this bike have the new iOS update or something?

I got this in the Costco version called the bronco on clearance for $140 back in the day. Thing is a beast on trails, mud, sand. When in doubt power out.

Had to replace the rear cassette hub thing once
