Don't believe a quoted weight.

All this aside they are a nice ride, just keep an eye on the bearings in the little dog bone link behind the BB, Mongoose's are notorious for flogging them out, especially in muddy or damp conditions. And the kit is not cheap either.

Took the Mongoose Canaan Team for a test ride today. A good 3 hours of hard climbing and technical downhill. A most impressive xc bike. Climbs like a goat and soaks up the rough stuff on the down. Nice bike.
