I purchased this bike for a low cost test to see if I would like road biking. The over quality of the bike is quite good and has been , I feel, put together very well. I purchased the bike for under 300 so I can't really complain. I have so far ridden about 3-4 hundred miles on the bike right out of the box. Only thing I added were clipless pedals to fit my mtn shoes. I'll probably up grade down the road, but will keep this bike for my commuter. I read the Vilano site and some folks are actually using the bike for their first tri events and I think the bike would fit that very nicley. I put the bike together in about 1 hour. I have a background in bikes so it was not terribly difficult. I am very happy with the bike and would recomend the bike to anyone interested in a low cost above average quality road bike.

I shopped around quite a bit before deciding on the Vilano. In the end it came down to the frame and color selections. Most of the other bikes in this price range have flashy/silly graphics which I don't like. I like the simple color schemes. I was also drawn to the aero frame.

I received the bike quickly in good shape. I'm very impressed with the bike. The frame is very nice, it looks like it belongs on a much more expensive bike. I also like the shifters on the handlebar, they're easy to reach. All in all this a great bike which I will use for years to come.

Just getting into road cycling and did not want to spend $1000. Had bike for two weeks and so far so good. Like the shimano shifters. Poor quality tires though. Had a bead blow out after 30 miles. But no big deal as the overall price is great. Came with a decent vader split seat. Overall more impressive than a GMC PRO Denali that we purchased for my wife at $100 more than the Vilano.

i bought this bike im new to the cycleling work and for 300 bucks its a great bike i bought a boke on how to keep maitnance on your road bike and i learnd how to tuned the bike it runs smooth

What a great bike! The bike is very lightweight and solidly built. It comes disassembled but was very easy to put together. There are even instructions online if you run into a problem. This was a fantastic bargain and made a great Christmas present!

Bike arrived relatively quickly, but arrived with some minor shipping damage as well as poor pre-assembly. Forks aren't perfectly straight. Front brake caliper was rubbing badly against the fork causing more damage. Also the rear tire popped due to the plastic spoke protector being installed incorrectly (not by me).

this bike is no good. you dont have any warrenty on it you have to spend money on it cant get parts for it or get tuneup
