HILAND 700c Road Bike, 14 Speeds, Light Weight Aluminum Frame, Racing Bike City Commuting Road Bicycle for Men Women

I've had this bike for about a year and a half or about 2000 miles, it has far exceeded my expectations. At its price point I guess I expected it to be an uncomfortable mess that falls apart after a few weeks. It's been a solid performer and makes for both a reliable daily driver as well as a solid piece of equipment for both long rides or short sprint workouts.Most of the other reviews mention the same missing screw over and over. I do remember that mine had fallen off in shipping, but I found them in the box under one of the flaps. I wonder how many people who's were missing got thrown out with the box.It took me a little while to get everything adjusted and tightened down, but once I did I never had a problem again. The shifting and drivetrain are dependable, once I got the derailleurs dialed in I never have to worry about the chain slipping or falling off the chainring.I did have to order a stem riser, the handlebars are very low, which was a problem for me when I got it because I wasn't used to being in that riding position, I didn't have a lot of experience on a road bike. Because of its price point I suspect a lot of riders who choose this bike will have the same problem.The customer service so far has been pretty great. About a year into ownership I reached out to the amazon seller about the specs on replacement parts, and they've happily answered quickly every time I do.Its definitely not the lightest or most aero bike on the market, but it doesn't exactly make me yearn for something lighter or sleeker. Mine weighs 28lbs currently, it's easy enough to carry up and down stairs, and I don't feel like its weight is hurting me on climbs.I've been training quite a bit on this bike this summer and I've made massive gains in personal performance, honestly I get a special kind of joy riding this bike blowing past riders on one to two thousand dollar bikes on my local bike trails.Overall I've been very happy with this bike, and would probably recommend it to friends who were looking to get into cycling

I’m riding in the Police Unity Tour May 2022, I was looking for a cost efficient bike, I planned on training on it for a few months then the tour in May, which is approximately 380 miles in 4 days.I received the bike and had my local shop assemble it and fit me,, clip shoes is a must! The shop own said for the price it’s a great starter and fits my needs.Well I’m a novice rider,, I started training a few weeks ago and I’m pleased with the bike,, I’ve had absolutely no problems, I’d say for the money this bike is amazing,, almost to the point I may go further with road biking. It’s holding up on the war torn streets of New York where potholes are protected lands due to the migration of frogs, so no repairs will be done.Everything about the bike is great for beginners, I will say I was happy the gear shifters were mounted by the neck,, upon riding any accessories I wanted could not be used because the shifters are in the middle. Cell phone holder, center bars to lean on etc can not be mounted. Honestly nothing there allows me to focus on riding.I will update after the tour from Ground Zero to DC,,, hopefully the bike holds up

My husband loves this bike... which is saying a lot! He has a more expensive road bike, yet he wanted one to keep at the house, and one at our camper along side of a bike trail. It is light weight and good quality. We ride over 2500 miles each year. It's a great reasonable priced bike.

The media could not be loaded. I selected this bike based on all the great reviews, as I wanted a good commuter bike. Not two months later I am coming down a hill at night at a high rate of speed, and the left crank came loose and almost fell off. I took it to a bike shop to discover the square of the crank was stripped at the factory and looked more like a circle. It's frustrating to have problems with a two month old bike with a part that was pre-assembled, and this could have potentially caused a serious injury.I reached out to Hiland customer support and provided my amazon order screenshot with address and purchase date and asked them to send me a new crank. They responded with "Why don't you buy one on amazon and we will refund you the cost?" and provided a link to a generic (non factory matching) crank. I responded with "Why don't you send me one so I am not incurring additional expense and waiting for a refund?" They said, "Sure, this will take two weeks." I didn't wish to wait two weeks, so I bought the 170mm square hole replacement crank. Only when it arrived, it is a bit longer than 170mm, so now I will have to buy an entirely new crank set to ensure the length actually matches. Hiland should have done the right thing and sent a matching factory crank as this was obviously a defective unit on delivery. Further, the gear shifts, even when fully flush with the tightening screw, STILL rotate around the handlebar when you try to change gears - which is also dangerous and in need of modification. The white handlebar wrap - which gets dirty easy and looks bad on a black bike - is already coming undone and looking like a ragged mummy, so this will also need replacing. All said, I will have spent an additional 100+ to get this new bike functional. A highly frustrating experience with Hiland and, hindsight being 20/20, I would have selected a different bike.
