From the company's initial cast-magnesium MotoMag wheels to its current crop of BMX, mountain, and pavement bikes, the Mongoose name has been synonymous with bicycle performance. Mongoose builds specifically for riders, which is why the company's BMX designers aren't wasting time watching reruns on ESPN2. Instead, they're constantly testing their new designs at the park, on the track, and on the hill. This continuous experimentation is what drives Mongoose to cook up things like the Front Porch head tube, which lets you fine-tune the handling on Black Diamond series mountain bikes, or Freedrive suspension technology, which eliminates pedal bob and provides a super-efficient full suspension. Mongoose bikes don't just push the limits; they set new ones.

Road Bike Spokes

Choosing the right mountain bike for you is not always as simple as it seems. There are a number of factors which you will need to take into consideration and the wheels on the bike are just one of them. There are certain features on the wheels which you will need to think about such as rims, tubeless and traction. All of these features are potentially important and if you are to benefit fully from mountain biking then you will need to ensure that you choose the right features to suit your needs.

The Different Features on the Wheels

In order to make the right choice when choosing the wheels on a mountain bike, you first need to understand what each feature does.

The rims on a bike are what the wheel is actually mounted on. There are different types of rims available and the two main materials which they are made from include aluminum and steel. The thing you need to remember with the rims is that the more expensive they are the better quality they will be.

Also you can tell a good quality rim from how many spokes it has. A poor quality rim will have more spokes than a good quality one and a good quality rim will have hidden nipples. If you are unsure as to what rim nipples are, basically they are the raised features which you will find on the rim which stick out. Their purpose is to allow the spokes to connect to the rim.

The traction is an important feature which you have to consider when purchasing new wheels. Basically the traction is what allows the wheel to grip the surface of the pavement when you are riding. So you will need to take into consideration where you will be riding your bike the most. What kind of terrain will it be? Will it be smooth or will the terrain most likely be rocky and rough? This will make a huge difference when it comes to choosing the right tire traction to suit your needs. If you choose a wheel which has hardly any traction then it would be a huge mistake to ride it over rocky surfaces.

In order to see how much traction a tire has, simply look at the wheels. Have they got a tread pattern or do they look almost naked? If a tire does look naked then that means that it hardly has any traction. The more patterns the wheel has the more traction it also has. So always keep the terrain in mind when looking at new wheels.

Overall the wheels on a mountain bike are extremely important and they will make all the difference when it comes to riding and controlling the bike.

CheapThule 962XT Speedway 3-Bike Trunk Rack

'04 Honda Civic SI (hatchback) - Thule 962XT Speedway 3-Bike

This is an excellent bike rack but the hatchback design for the newer hatchback SI leaves some improvements to be desired for the trunk mount. The top and bottom hooks are secure but the ones mounted near the rear brake lights (as shown in the Thule example) seem to slide down as the car hits bumps in the road. This loosens the mount and it begins to bounce more as you ride. There are no sharp corners to adequately hold the side hooks so I am looking to add something (tape or closed cell foam) to prevent slipping. Secondly, my mountain bike design does not fit well on the rack. I have to rest the rear suspension spring on the bike rack arm so the weight is not evenly distributed. This could be another element causing the side hooks to slip. Either way, it's an excellent bike rack aside from the design issues with my hatchback Civic SI and Iron Horse mountain bike.

World Class Bike Rack

I go to a lot of big road bike events and ride road bikes several thousand miles a year. I looked at a lot of other racks at events and talked to the people were using them. This is one of the the most sturdy, stable and well detailed racks available. The robust rubber stays and guides keep the bikes securely positioned and protected. If you are going to put very expensive road bikes on a car rack, you can afford the best rack.

Excellent Quality

I purchased this rack for my daughter's Hyundai Santa Fe. The quality is excellent and fit well on the Santa Fe. She said that it performed well, holding the bike securely while moving to Boston from Alabama. After seeing the quality of this product I plan to purchase another one for use on my Toyota Prius.

=======================================================================

Solid rack

No problem in using it. Easy to install in general. In the beginning I bought the roof type of rack but it turned out difficult for me to put the bike on. This one is pretty convenient for occasional (weekends) trip.

=======================================================================

Does it fit or not???

OK - So I'm researching about buying this bike rack. I just happen to own an Audi A4 Wagon and the picture on the listing here at Amazon and other sites actually show the rack mounted to an A4 wagon. But when you look at the installation directions for the rack it says that you shouldn't use the rack on an A4 wagon because there's no safe place to secure the top straps. What??????

======================================================================

Poor Design

We ordered this rack to carry two adult Trek bikes and a youth mountian bike. First, there's almost no way to carry three bikes on this rack without incurring damage to the bike frames or spokes. Once could possibly partially diassemble the bikes and accomodate three bikes but that sort of defeats the purpose. Secondly, this is not a stable unit. Loaded with three bikes the rack tends to pull away from the vehicle (Toyota SUV) even with the straps conced tightly enough to flex the rack's frame. Even more troubling is the fact that the arms of the rack are secured with only two cheap spring-loaded pins which hold them into a plastic housing. On our rack, it was possible with just a little effort to jiggle and torque the arms enough to dislodge the pins. On the road that would result in the loss of all the bikes. This is a poor design ... save yourself the effort of a return.

I want to purchase new road bike wheels--what determines a comfortable set of wheels? Number of spokes?

Or is there something else one should look for? Thanks in advance for your responses.

If your interest is speed, you'd look for the lightest wheel set you could afford. Light generally = $$$.

For general running about, you can compromise on weight and save lots of money.

For comfort, wider tires with lower pressure. Spokes don't have anything to do with that.
