Assembly Information

This bike will arrive partially assembled in a large cardboard box and needs to be assembled and tuned prior to riding. Here is a brief general list of what you need to do to complete assembly of any Vilano Bike:

  • Install handlebars
  • Install saddle
  • Install pedals (**the RIGHT pedal is installed clockwise, the LEFT counter clockwise**), use grease
  • True the wheels
  • Tune the brakes
  • While assembly is simple, it takes time and specialized tools which are not included. We highly recommend bringing it to a local shop for a safety check/tuning by a qualified bike mechanic prior to riding and at regular intervals thereafter.

Customers are mixed about the quality of the bicycle. Some mention that it has a solid construction, and is pretty high quality for costing under $200.

Fatal Flaw: Handlebar latch
3 Stars
Fatal Flaw: Handlebar latch
I really wanted to love my folding bike, but the handlebar latch soured my experience from the beginning. It was too tight to engage from the factory and trying to adjust it led me to find out many ugly things. 1) They use a hex-head bolt to mate with a round bar on the handlebar tube to energize the joint. 2) The adjustment in made by turning a threaded screw which is held in place by a set screw. So a set screw has to deform the threads preventing any future adjustment. 3) I could find no way to turn the adjustment screw with disassembling the whole latch. 4) The latch is held together with a tiny 6mm retaining ring with holes so small, ordinary snap ring pliers don't work. 5) Being metric, replacement snap rings are hard to find and a 1/4" E-ring seems to fit, but falls out easily. I'm spending about $30 to buy snap ring pliers with small tips and metric snap rings so I can enjoy my bike like I should have from day one.So far, I'm impressed by the other aspects of this bike, but I wish they would think through this component a lot more.

1.0 out of 5 stars The bike seems sturdy so I'm shocked
Reviewed in the United States on January 24, 2017
As of now stay away. See attached pics.
I ordered this bike on Amazon on Jan 2 and received it Jan 6th 2017. We had a snow storm in the area(Long Island) so I started using it Jan 12th. I got it for my commute as I take a train and my work is a little over a mile from the nearest stop. The bike developed a crack in the frame near the seat post as of Friday January 20th. That means I got only 7 round trip rides on it before the frame started to crack. So 15-20 miles max. I own a Full Suspension XTR equipped Mountain Bike and a Carbon Fiber road bike and have thousands and thousands of miles on those bikes. I had many bikes before those and never an issue. The bike seems sturdy so I'm shocked. Maybe they went to thin on the seat post area. Pics are attached. I really do like the bike in design, folding ability and simplicity maybe I just got a random factory defect. I'm going to exchange this one and write an updated post after that in hopes that I just got a random lemon and the line itself is good but as I right now stay away. You can see the crack and the seat post sleeve also was coming in which it should not do. I actually can't get the sleeve back in without a tool. I will keep riding the bike with no seat until I can get this situation fixed but that however is very uncomfortable.
