Product Description

The Kilo's greatest claim to fame is the fact that it is responsible for getting more tri athletes hooked on the sport than any other bike in its class. If you are craving a slick ride, a light aerodynamic frame completely new for 2006, and kick-butt and take name performance, Quintana Roo's Kilo is your fix. Designed to conquer the toughest race courses around the world, the Kilo's custom-butted AN-6 aero tubset is continually imitated by our competitors. Superior fit and comfort delivered by Kilo's eight sizes and careful selection of tri-specific components make the retail price of this bike almost illegal. Feel good about your addictive personality with the 2006 Kilo.

Strengths:    light, fast,comfortable

Weaknesses:    top tube is way too short and the wheel size is 650c so it is easy to pedal but unstable and hard to find parts for.

Bottom Line:

This is a great bike. mine still needs a seat but weighs around 19lbs. i brought it to cycle loft and parts were hard to find cuz this bike has a rare setup

Date Reviewed: May 1, 2007

Strengths:    Nice light frame (9.3 Kilo the complete bike). Nice color.

Weaknesses:    The wheelset is good for training only. The bearings are a little bit rought. Saddle was not comfortable. Heavy aluminum seat post (QR offers a carbon replacement).

Bottom Line:

Nice blue frame! Rearwheel is adjustable in horizontal direction.
Due to the big tubes the frame is a little bit noisy. Mainly the noise are induced by bad bearings of the rear wheel.
I doesn't feel comfortabel with the saddle and brake levers - I replaced them.
It is not very stiff, but I do not miss this for long distance thriathlons.
Replace the brake pads by the shimano ultegra pads - they are much better.
Good bike for this price! But some weaknesses too
