HOI KIT

: More than 1 year

: en_CA

I bought this bike as my first roadbike 1 year ago and it has been serving me good. It's not the lightest roadbike on earth but with the price I paid there is nothing to complain about. It's not going to make you win in a race but I will probably race and I am more leaning int

o bike touring so this bike is a very nice choice for me. Wide tires, pannier racks and mudguards mounts also makes it very capable as a commuting bike. I would recommend the RC520 as it got 11 speed Shimano 105 rather than the 9 speed SORA on this and I kinda wished I went for the 520 with a marginal price difference. However don't get me wrong as the 9 speed is very capable in all terrains and elevations and I would say it's enough for a starting recreational cyclist.

The RC500 is the best bike for the price. I don't think I have ever purchased a high-quality bike for a better price. Something to note, I had the bike mechanics adjust the lower gears and the chain, which was a bit loose, causing the gears to make noise when on the lowest

gear. They modified it on the spot and informed me that the road bike had included bike servicing for the year, which is handy. In addition, I had them add SDP-compatible pedals with cleats ($55) and bike shoes ($60), removing the original pedals. I am in the six-foot height range, and the x-large version was a perfect fit. The bike is lightweight, thanks to the carbon-bladed fork and a light frame. The road bike was super affordable and functional. I am pleased with my purchase. I'm not sure if I mentioned how fast this bike is, but it is a machine for entry-level to advanced riders. It's perfect when riding uphill on an incline. I would recommend the RC500 road bike. On a side note, Decathalon has very affordable prices for quality athletic gear and products.

We bought this bike for our son who wanted a road bike, but isn’t interested in racing or multi sport. It seems well built, the geometry makes it a comfortable and stable ride and the Shimano Sora group set is solid and reliable. Not a race bike, but a sporty looking fitness m

achine.

It has not been over a month since I’ve bought the bike, and there are some issues every other day. Just a day or two ago the spoke came off and the spoke nut got into the tyre, luckily nothing fatal happened. I’m really upset that this happened, would have expected better fro

m such a brand, further the bike technician at decathlon also told me the spokes tension is all over the place. I should have gone with other brands might have got money’s worth
