I bought a Mongoose maneuver mountain bike back in the nineties when Mongoose was a good brand. That bike was awesome and reliable! I recently bought a Mongoose dxr mountain bike and it sucks! Its literally a piece of crap!

I heard that Pacific bought Mongoose and a few other brands which is why Mongoose now sucks! Having said that, what other brands are now owned by Pacific and do they all suck because they are owned by Pacific?

I was thinking of buying a 2008 GT Outpost Mountain bike from craigslist for 300 because at the store it cost 500! However, im pretty sure GT is now owned by Pacific so im not sure if this 500 dollar bike is any good.

Any advice, suggestions, and or comments would be appreciated. Thanks
 
Pacific owns Mongoose, Schwinn, and Dyno a sub-brand of GT. The good Mongoose and Schwinn bikes are still being made but are only sold at bike shops. The stuff you find at Walmart and other department stores are the cheap junk with the same name.
