Mongoose RX 9.7 bike review

Mongoose produced the RX 9.7 bike in 1999 and can be classified as a Road bicycle, this exact model costs in american market arround $2,599.00.
Mongoose Road RX 9.7 can be found in one single color which is Brushed.
This bike is equiped with 650 x 23c Vittoria Action HSD kevlar tires and Wheelsmith stainless steel spoke wheel while the rims are manufactured by Mavic CXP 23, 32-hole. Mongoose equiped this exact model with Shimano Ultegra Dual Pivot brakes, Shimano Ultegra STI levers braking system and Shimano Ultegra hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride Mongoose used 3Al/2.5V titanium material for the frame. Syntace Stratos high strength material is used on the handlebar of this RX 9.7 to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of Syntace Force.
For the smoothest biking experience Shimano Ultegra, 44/55 teeth is used on this bicycle linked to Shimano CN-HG92 chain that is easily replaceable as stated by Mongoose, the whole system is connected to a high reliability Shimano Ultegra STI Dual Control gear shift levers.
