This is my first time writing a review. I purchased this bike a few days ago and can’t be more pleased with the purchase. I took it on about an 8 mile ride (had to break it in). I wasn’t sure what I was getting into having previously only owned mountain bikes. I love the flat bar system, being that I am a pretty big guy (I’m about 5′10″ and 240lbs) I know I wouldn’t like the standard road bike handle bars. The 700c tires get you up to speed effortlessly. I was riding with a good friend of mine who owns a mountain bike (I let him ride it and it convinced him into buying a road bike). Riding downhill was a thrill no need to pedal just let the tires do all the work. I bought the bike wanting to get into a new hobby and also getting back into shape after having knee surgery and gaining about 40lbs. I would recommend taking it to your local bike shop to get a tune up, averages about $40. The only negative I can think of is while I was riding I noticed the chain would rub in certain gears. Having looked and shopped around online and at the local bike shops this bike was definitely worth every cent. Overall, the bike was a great buy for the money, very durable, very comfortable, and very fun!!!
