Quintana Roo Kilo

Price Paid:  $840.00 at Tech-Bike San Diego

Favorite Ride:
Quintana Roo

Summary:
Tried several Tri-Bikes... Quintana was best bang for the buck. I would of prefered the Caliente but the Kilo was just as good of a ride, but the Caliente was a softer ride. For a $800 difference I'll take the kilo until I can afford the next level. No other bike compare to the kilo in the same price range

Strengths:
Price,weight and fast

Weaknesses:
There are softer rides but at twice the price.

Favorite Ride:
flat, with the wind at my back

Bike Setup:
(out of the box) 105/Tiagra components, Volicity Deep V wheels, arrowbars. added a softer seat

Summary:
Out of the box, this 47cm bike was 17 lbs.
Add pedals, and a new seat,(the one that comes with it is a board),water bottles, blowout bag, spair, and tools and Im up to 20 lbs. Great wheels for the price. 650c volicity deep V's. Looks like Volicity hubs, but no logo so cant be sure. entry level arrowbars with end shifters. The bike can climb! and is suprisingly smooth, thanks to the carbon forks. Could have spent alot more and been less pleased.

Strengths:
light,fast,comfortable,cheap!!
Looks great, great paintjob and smooth welds

Weaknesses:
105/Tiagra components, hard seat
