I was steered to this bike after coming in for a trek. Staff was great in letting me test drive both. I was sold on the first ride. Light, very responsive and it did not break the bank. Highly recommended!

Comments:

The bike is decent. We had a little trouble adjusting the front derailer not to rub on the chain in the highest gear; meaning, we couldn't do it. We had to bend the Sora derailer because of the frame-flex under moderate pedal pressure. I had to change from a 54cm to a 56cm against the advice of the seller. When I got it home I raised the seat about 6cm and I changed the tilt of the bars substantially. Overall, it was an okay experience. I'm confident that I got the right size and the price was good for a brand new bike.
