Review of Mongoose 2001 Rogue by
epsym
Advantages: strong, light, cheap
Disadvantages: not that good parts.
...this here is the mongoose rogue bmx. now where do i start i have one off these and they are exellent bikes and as cheap as they are thats even better. they have a full cro-mo frame and fork cro-mo handle bars and loads of added extra's like tough double walled wheels, 36 - 13 tooth gearing, cassete hub and the newer models come with colour coded grips and pedals. it comes in a range of colours (black and red) lol..
one off the great things about this bike though has to be if you are a bmx enthusiast you can go out and buy new parts for it like stronger wheels lighter forks and things like that. i garuntee you that you will have loads of fun with this bike and hours off enjoyment....

Old Scott is still good.
Review of Scott Boulder by
AmenTeen
Advantages: Solid Frame, Excellent Gears, Durable, Value for money
Disadvantages: Small pedals and seat, V form brakes (not endurable)
...Scott Boulders is an MTB (stands for Mountain Bike) from Scott, limited, the leading resource of the best MTB in the world. Even if the Scott boulders is a 1999's production, it's very notable for the solid metallic frame and life longevity.
The Boulder comes in two different bend of colors; a burst of dark grey, blue, silver, white and a little bit of red, and the second where the blue is replaced with silver for a sleeker chrome look.
The triangular uni-sex frame is used, the front fork is shock k-absorbing, while the seat tube is left without shock absorber.
The handlebars are the Scott Strike Comp 1 P.G low-rise 600mm; Solid. The set width makes handling easy.
The frame is the Scott Bi-Axial Alloy 7005 Liteflite D.B. Scott Disc D/out.
One thing, I like about it is that the frame allows to ride more comfortably and efficiently...
