They look pretty good. Especially the tripple.
Wonder what the prices will be like?

My mate is racing the 07 ECD over seas at the moment.
I never really liked them but after i had a ride of it i love the feel of it.
Corners sweet and holds the fast straight lines really well.
I dont like the 08 colours though

Thanks for posting, I'm a fan of the 'gooses. Riding a teocali super at the moment & loving it.

Would love a caanan too..

Hmmm, time to go sell my arse down St Kilda way...

the mongoose dh/freeride bikes are sweet. i rode a guys black diamond triple and even though the frame was too small (his was a small frame and im 6ft, so knees were smakin the bars) it felt really sweet. I would love to have a fair dinkum go on one.

The new khybers look pretty sweet, as does the ECD and black diamond triple. Would like a full length seat tube though.

they look great but even if you bought one you would still be riding a 'goose

so the sticker says.


the only difference between a goose and another brand is your paying for the name.

mongooses are very good value for money and are building a good reputation with the "free drive " system.

would love to have a ride of the new khyber. looks like a very good all mountain bike/free ride bike

I'm really keen to have a few runs on an ecdh. It would be interesting to feel how the floating bottom bracket goes. Interesting design though. Looks kinda good.

The floating bb feels great the distance from rear axle to bb never changes, Doesnt pull chain and you can pedal throught a lot more rought stuff. GTs I-drive does the same thing. Cant feel any brake jack aswell which was a suprize as they are in a sence still a singel pivot. I have had 3 FSR rear ended and a Kona but the ecd is the best yet.

Where do you think the freedrive thing comes from. Look into it.


Having been present when a Teocali was pulled down to replace suspension parts, I was quietly horrified at how flimsy some of the bits are that you don't see. This alone would prevent me owning a 'Goose.

However, the Canaan is a real sweet looking bike in the flesh. Love to ride one.
