Q&A(8)
Q: What is the maximum weight limit of this bike?
A: They say 40-60 pounds, give or take 5 pounds or so. The frame isn't that high speed fiber composite you'd find on bikes 1k plus. But, you knew that already didn't you?
submitted byGeeselord - 5 years agoA: The bikes don't have a set weight limit due to the testing done to meet industry standards. The bikes are tested at a variety of weights and forces and several factors determine how much weight a bike can hold such as tire psi, maintenance, and riding style. Thank you.
submitted byMongooseCustomerSupport - 6 years agoBrand expertA: I'd say 300+ lbs. Why? My brother is 6'4 and he sat his burly (another word for a donkey) on the bike and he was fine. He rode it and tried unsuccessfully to buy it off me.

Q: I am 5" 3 1/2" Tall, will this bike fit me?
A: We suggest a rider height range starting at 5'2" so this should be a great fit. The Dolomite has a 28" stand over which correlates to the rider's inseam for best sizing. Enjoy the trails! Nicole

Q: I notice that the pictures of the bike show two different types of tires. Does the bike come with the tires that are more knobby (The picture with the seat lower) or does it come with tires with a smoother tread (the picture with the seat higher)?
A: The Dolomite comes with a 26x4 knobby tire. The tire will look like the photo that is more focused on the chain and crank set area.
