 Great Entry Level Road Bike December 29, 2008
Paul B. Baker (St. Charles, MO)
About 7 months ago I was getting into road biking and thought this bike would be a great start. I am 5 10 and this bike fit me pretty well. The frame is a bit longer than other road bikes, but you will not notice the difference if this is your first bike. I have put about 500 miles on this bike and have had very minimal problems. The biggest downfall to this bike would be the lack of a quick release skewer on the rear wheel. This bike is a bit heavier than a more expensive entry level road bike, but again, is a great bike to start out on. I have stepped up to a Bianchi Nirone C2C, and this is now my campus cruiser. Highly recommended for a first road bike. If you are into biking though, I would step it up to the $700+ range.

After a stressful day of going around with an Avid cyclist, trying to find a good road bike to fit my budget, we gave up on going to all the local cycle stores and took our hunt online. We came across this bike and my friend was hesitant with giving it the o.k, however it turned out to be a good call. I'm around 5'10 200 lbs, and the bike fits me great, though as previously stated the handle bars are a bit iffy, but you get used to it pretty quick. After riding about a year I'm now ready to upgrade, but it's definitely a great bike for any starter. I've put at least 500 miles on it and I stress at least, and its held up great.
