   Fun, first road bike review by KG on 5/28/10

   Got my Corsa about 2 months back and enjoying the ride! Great looking price and overall happy camper. Rode my first tri and helped improve past years time significantly (that's what happens when you borrow a bike not fitted to you)...Two things that concern me about this bike, the chain rubs side of bike and back brake caliper gap between caliper and tire is too close. Apparently this may be a design flaw in the brake mounting bracket. The mounting bracket is way to too low/close to the tire and therefore the break caliper is rubbing. Managed to figure a solution but still concerning the caliper is too close to tire. Only real solution will be to test different calipers, maybe. Anyone else having this issue?

   Good Bike review by Daniel on 5/11/10

   It's made in Taiwan (like most bikes) and has 16 gears. Overall a good bike for the money - I just finished my first Triathlon. I've had some problems adjusting the front drailleur (it was sticking really bad) but seems OK now. The chain is rubbing at some of the lowest/highest gears.

   Excellent first bike! review by Kevin on 4/12/10

   Exactly what I wanted for the price I wanted to pay! Simple, functional and very well built. It is my first road bike and after much deliberation I decided against purchasing from a local bike shop and paying double, and bought online and I am glad I did. This is an excellent bike and will definitely recommend to everyone! Super fast shipping came in 3 days.

   Good Bike review by Beno on 2/21/10

   I just got my Corsa. It came quickly and was in good condition. I took the bike to my local bike shop to have them finish the assembly. The bike looks great and is very quick. My one complaint is that the chain rubs the side of the bike in the very high gears. It's not big deal. I'm very happy with the purchase.
