Mongoose-Stranger Things 3 Freestyle 20" Kids' Bike- Silver/Yellow

I found out about this bike a little late and it was out of stock everywhere. I was patiently waiting for them to restock and almost gave up. This was actually a gift for me and I splurged on it. I remember the 80s bmx bikes and miss the design. There was no way I could pass up on this. Although yellow isn't my color, I still had to get it. It was well worth it to purchase! I love it and the yellow isn't that bad at all. I'm glad Target, Mongoose and Stranger Things put this out. I am so happy owning it. I can't stop staring at it. I want to buy another just case something ever happens to the one I have. :-) If they ever make one with blue mags I'm there! Go buy it you won't regret it!

5 stars but I would much rather have a Kuwahara E.T.

welds are nicely done for chinese made bike

I was really excited when I found out that Mongoose was going to release a Stranger Things Special Edition of the Bike that Max has in Season 3. I was even more excited to find out that Target was going to offer them exclusively at their stores. Knowing that the odds were against me to get one because of the fact that there was going to only be 2 Available at each store, I had to act fast. I woke up early on the release date (6/30) and saw that my local store had one in stock. I instantly bought it. A about an hour later I got an email stating that it was ready for pick up. 15 minutes later i was there to get it. And there it was, behind the counter. I couldn't believe it! I actually got it! I confirmed Pick Up with clerk, and rode it out of the store. If there was any bike that captures the spirit of the 1980's and isn't actually from then, this is the bike to have! It's like Summer of 1985 when ever I ride it. Aside the stickers being exclusive to the Stranger Things bike, almost everything about it is near identical to an early '80s Mongoose. From the Yellow Pads, Seat and retro Frame, it's definitely the closest representation of a Vintage Mongoose. I'm so psyched that I got it because people are already selling them for nearly Triple the $219.99 store price, and they are all Sold Out! For the Price, it's a solid bike. I made a few adjustments as needed (seat, handlebars), and It's good to go. If you didn't get one, I'm very sorry. To those that did, Congratulations. I'm reliving my Youth all over again. Peace -T.C.

Great throwback retro from Mongoose, WELL DONE!

Very cool retro BMX bike. Nope it's not top quality and nobody expects it to be at the price. It's a cool tribute to one of BMX early bikes the Mongoose.

There are alot of haters that will review this bike but for a little over $200 this is a nice retro Mongoose BMX bike. Take a look online. Its sold out everywhere. For a bike that is built out of the USA, the welds are nice, wheels roll smoothly, and comfortable to ride. The pad set is cheaply made but that's my only negative find. Could mongoose have made this a little bit more like the one on the series? Of course but the price point would be much different. If you are looking for an inexpensive, cool retro bike, in my opinion, you cant beat this one!

The best bike ever !!!!!!!!!!
