Indeed it is ;-)

Canada 16, the 09 Super was a lot different:

Looks nice. I had a Tyax Elite 07...Mongoose seem to be good quality all round. Sold it to my mate last month for £100(had my pants down). Solid bikes.

Prices on Mongooses are usually pretty good though. It'll be interesting to see how they're going to handle this economic "crisis".

i've currently got a mongoose tyax super 08 it seems to be pretty good with what ever i throw at it

Here is the new Elite:



£450. Seems a big rise, but is basically specedd like last years Super. So rebound adjustable forks, hydro discs and 8 speed put it well above most others on value. Will be quite heavy though, but meant to be ridden harder than an XC bike.

The Super gets a Tora Uturn fork, hydros and 27 speed SRAM for £600!

I have been waiting for the 2010 super to come out as l couldn't seem to get hold of a 2009 from shops supporting my cycleto work scheme. The £200 price jump was quite a shock!

As you said though, the 2010 elite looks like the 2009 super so I will be going for that at £450 I think.

Other bikes I was considering are:-

2010 gt avalanche 2.0 - £550
scott aspect 45 - £530

Any reason why I would want to go for either of these over the mongoose?

Bike will be used 50:50 road/xc
I am 5'10 and 17 stone so it's likely to be under a bit of stress

I've still got my '06 super. Really solid bike, I was riding any/everywhere when I was 18+ stone. Now it's my winter bike, and lend to mates bike.

I have had my tyax comp 08 for about a year and i ride it every day to school and trails quite often and its held up well. Well for a £230 bike it has, nothing has even broken on it. I like the look of the new super, might have to have a look at buying.

Am i the only one on here with a mongoose and gets mocked by your mates for it being a bmx?

quagmire man

My 08 when it was out and about good solid bike for the money


now its a home bird
