5Very happy with bike
By Flagstaff
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.

4Vilano Road Bike
By Smith4tx
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.

3Vilano with p.o.s. crankset
By Jason&Julia
This was my first road bike I purchased online, and also my first road bike that was newer (as in not from the 80's). It shipped just fine and arrived on time, and was also in perfect shape upon arrival. Assembly was a breeze, maybe 20-30 minutes tops, and was ready to ride immediately. However now, after a few months after purchase, I have noticed some small problems and a slightly larger one. The gear shifters have never worked right, I have used the tuning screws to fine tune them so I could fully utilize their capabilities but to no avail. I am without the highest gear on my crank set, and without my highest two on my rear shifters too. Not that big of a deal though cause I can simply replace the shimano gear shifters for a decent price. The big problem I have with my bike is the crank set. It is as if it is loose, but it is not. It is already broken, worn through threading and shot a bearing. Strange that this would happen after maybe 100 miles on the bike. I now have to pay to get it replaced, which can be expensive if I want a nice reliable crank set.But for the price, would I advise someone to purchase this bike, maybe. If you can find an old schwinn at a garage sale and fix it up, do that instead. But if you want a newer bike, with a newer look, and is very light, get this. Over all I give it a 3 star rating, because of the gear shifters and the crank set. Had there been no issue with either of them I would have given it 5 stars without a second thought or moment of hesitation.
