My road bike is an entry level model the Vilano Shadow. Purchased online and at the end of the season I paid less than $325 delivered and now have more than 1000 miles riding it. If you are thinking about riding yourself then you would do well to consider this model or one in the same price range. But, budget another $90 or so for a better set of tires - just to be safe. The Road Biker here. Welcome to my blog! So, today I talk about my Vilano Shadow road bike and this time I turn the camera on myself. You get to see the Road Biker and his bike, but I promise more videos soon where we'll take a ride together. Hope you enjoy watching this video and that you look for more videos in the future offered by this bike blogger. http://www.bestroadbikesunder1000.net/best-road-bikes-under-500-dollars Thanks for watching and coming along... And, check out these other videos and my Vietnam Veterans website: http://www.21strac.com https://youtu.be/oSyT-HzFK4s https://youtu.be/CpFp5-vePhk https://youtu.be/o4gT2c4JZ8o https://youtu.be/-AHJ3xb5OmQ https://youtu.be/GsIYj76yeQk https://youtu.be/Ll2BfaCE19A https://youtu.be/REo1lmyeVwA Video: iPhone 6 Velocity Clip Harness Road Bike: Vilano Shadow. Shimano Shifter and Sigma Bike Computer https://youtu.be/CojsAvHQ8YU. I decided on this road bike because GNC reviewed and listed it as a best road bike under 500 dollars and more importantly best road bike under 1000 as well. Gerry Granatowski

I've seen vilano core electric bike for assist up hills and overall commute for 850 bucks on sites such as sears and Newegg. Do you think its worth it? https://m.newegg.com/Product/index?itemnumber=9SIA05V5376505&nm_mc=KNC-GoogleMKP-Mobile&cm_mmc=KNC-GoogleMKP-Mobile-_-pla-_-Bikes-_-9SIA05V5376505&gclid=Cj0KEQiA-f3CBRCbluKf4vu008kBEiQAl-iGq5fku7bFAaIsuwzbjAbXU-OwqKK-eQn4pWPVavN5TwAaArLl8P8HAQ&gclsrc=aw.ds

Hi i gust got mine and like you say its a god bike i know im going to get a lot of good kms on it!.. enjoy your rides!.. :) nice video!..

great video Gerry really helped me a lot thanks!!!

What width rim tape is appropriate for the rims, please

What size is the bike? Medium or large? Great video btw

I've purchased this bike yesterday, I live in Syracuse NY, with Pro Build, how long does it take to deliver and do i need Lube when i have to assemble?

See i didnt want to say this because its a little embarrassing I bought my gmc at walmart and me and my cycling buddies think of it of a joke front wheel came slanted and got a flat on the first day and I've had it for about 1-1.5 months and i have a total of 3 months to return it. And the main reason this bike cought my eye because this in an "entry level bike" and the gmc is not and the second reason is the intergrated shifters on the bike seem intriguing but I've never used a bike with intergrated shifters

I currently owna gmc denail road bike should i trade it for the vilano shadow?

I just ordered this bike, so excited!

What kind of saddle is that?

Great videos, all of them. You give a good perspective of the bike... likes/dislikes. Not sure if you included any info on fitment specs. Like the bike size you chose and how it fits you?

Great video!

Does the frame have rear rack mounts? I can't tell from the pics. Great video! :)

Dude thanks for the video!

great content. thanks for the video!

Hey cool overview of the bike. I've own my shadow for 2 and a half years now. I have about 4500 miles on it now. I got my first flat on stock tires at 900 some miles, not too bad then I changed tires at 1300 to gator skins and today at about 4500 miles, I placed another set of gator skins on. It's a really good bike considering all the riding I do with it. Check out my channel if you get a chance, I upload videos every Sunday about my adventures on my bike. Thanks for the review!

Would it still be ok if i use these tires they come with? Dont have enough money for new ones.

does this bike feature quick releases for the tires?

Thanks for the video. I actually own several much more expensive bikes but I wanted a bike dedicated to my Cyclops trainer. I believe this will be perfectly suited to the task. Thanks again.

thanx nice one
