Hi,

My current trail bike is a Mongoose, and looks like this:

trakcycles.com.au8Open ↗

...but I worry it's a knock-off, since I didnt' pay 389 for it. ($200).

Is there a version one step below? How can I tell which mongoose it is?

OK, I'm answering my own question. It's not the D.H 1.5. The bike I have is the XR-100, and that is
a step below the D.H.

Supposedly the retail is $300, and I paid $185ish.

I couldn't find it anywhere so I posted here. THen I got the idea to look on ebay and found it.

It's a bit on the 'heavy' side at 45lbs. A bit. Yeah.

Maybe this will help someone else.

The XR-100 sells at Walmart.com for $149.
