If the price is right, I’d get the mongoose. You know what it is, and it’s newish. There are parts that will probably need upgrading fairly soon. But it’s better than parting cash with a bike that might need more work, or just simply isn’t as good.
The others look like slightly upgraded completes. So I’d guess not full chromoly either

HAHAHAHA yeah not worried about front brakes hey, i might run rears. Leaning more towards to goose, has 1 dirt tyre already, i live on a small holding so my thoughts are aimed more at riding on dirt roads, can order a tube and tyre quick and easy for it. Plus its a 21'' TT and im a taller guy so im 85% made up that im going for that.
