Very Decent Single Speed
By Robert Smith
I bought this bike last week and received it this past Monday 8/15/11. It came in a proper bicycle box and was delivered right to my porch. Inside, it was packaged professionally. All the parts were there. At this point, I was excited! To make a long story short, it's a great bike for the money. My only ISSUES are that the brakes are a little cheap and the seat is really uncomfortable. But I have several saddles, so I just swapped it out. After I put air in the tires, the bike rode great. It is super fast and super fun, you can really fly on the thing. If you don't want to deal with a multispeed bike and just want the low maintanence of a single speed, then this bike is for you. I spent an extra couple of bucks and bought aerobars for it so I can tuck and really fly. Overall, the bike is really sharp looking, really neat and overall, I'm really satisfied. I gave it four stars b/c of the brakes. Good luck!

After five months, still loving this bike
By cllcle
At $200, I was very skeptical about this bike since the price is probably one of the lowest you'll find on the market today. However, here I am still riding it and loving every moment of it.I bought this bike back in August of last year and still use it to commute to work every other day (which equates to roughly a 9 mile round trip). And for the price, I could not complain.There are a few caveats to the bike however, and that would be the uncomfortable seat and the cheap tires and rim tape that it comes installed it. However, I did not dock it a star because this bike was $200 after all. I replaced the tires with gatorskins and got different rim tape all around and swapped the seat with another bike I had and I haven't had problems since.Just remember you are not buying the best of the best, but this is definitely a solid entry level bike that will get you from point A to point B.

Simple, clean, fun
By S. Gangotena
Ordered on a Saturday and received it on Tuesday, it arrived before I even got the email that it had shipped. The gear ratio is perfect, picks up speed really quickly. Its sharp, light, and looks fantastic. For 200, I don't think you're gonna find a deal nearly as good as this. Assembly was simple.
