Carbon Road Bike, SAVA HERD6.0 T800 Carbon Fiber 700C Road Bicycle with 105 22 Speed Groupset Ultra-Light Carbon Wheelset Seatpost Fork Bicycle

(Insert gloomy expression here)br>br>Delivery Presented in: br>This particular order had the Amazon Prime flag on it, as well as a "guaranteed delivery" date of two days. The bike arrived a day after their "guarantee" was supposed to arrive. " I don't blame Savadeck for this, but I can see how this could be a problem for someone buying this as a gift or something similar. br>The packaging was well designed. There was a lot of padding and filler, as well as protective foam wrap and plastic wrap around sensitive parts like the wheel hub. There was one broken piece of plastic, but I couldn't figure out what it belonged to, so it probably did its job well. br>br>Bike Setup: br>br> br>As they had previously stated in their "answers" sections, putting the bike together was simple. It took me longer to remove all of the protective plastic and wrapping than it did to assemble the bike! It took me about 30 minutes to complete everything. The front wheel, handlebars, and seat post are the only pieces that need to be assembled or attached. br>The stem was slightly misaligned, but this was easily fixed by unscrewing two bolts and re-tightening them. screwing back in/repositioning br>The brakes are reversed from what I'm used to, but if I decide to switch them over, it'll be a simple fix. (Back wheel=left brake, forward wheel=right brake)br>The serial number does not appear to be engraved, but rather is part of the paint scheme. This could be a problem if the bike is stolen or lost. br>br>Quality of the Ride: br>br> br>I've only had the bike for a couple of weeks, but it's already one of the best I've ever ridden! I've gotten about 100 miles out of it so far and it's been flawless. The 105 components are smooth and precise, with a comfortable saddle and well-designed handlebars. The grip has a "grippy" feel to it and appears to be of good quality. When performing its intended function, the freewheel makes quite a bit of noise (which I personally enjoy, but can see how it might annoy others). Overall, the bike is extremely light, comfortable, and enjoyable to ride. br>br>Additional Benefit: br>A saddlebag, a touch-sensitive phone case, and a rear rack were included with the bike. A small toolkit, as well as side reflectors and mounts. br>br>Abridged Reviewbr>br>br>br>Prosbr> Quick delivery (3 days), good packagingbr> Easy setup (about 30 minutes from opening box)br> Great ride!br> Looks awesomebr> Included "goodies" (saddlebag, phone case, rear/side reflectors, toolkit)br> As of now, I am 100% satisfied with this purchase

br>I'll update this review if anything unexpected happens, or if something breaks or turns out to be less than I expected. br>I'll probably update the review once I've ridden the bike for a few more miles. br>br>Overall, a fantastic purchase. Five out of five stars.

I chose this bike because I was looking for something in the middle. This bike was ideal for the job. br>br>Before buying another bike, I did a lot of research and was initially hesitant to buy a bike from a lesser-known brand (at least in the United States). However, after some research and comparison shopping, I was confident in my decision to buy from SAVA. The frame is light. br>br> It has the light weight of a carbon frame but the stiffness of a steel frame. The 105 components are also good. Yes, Ultegra and DuraAce are superior, but the 105's will get you where you need to go, and the shifting and breaking are both very responsive and smooth. br>br>What drew me to this bike over others was the inclusion of 50mm carbon wheel sets, which are NOT included with most bikes. It would be difficult to find 50mm wheel sets for less than $750 per pair if one were to shop solely for them. The majority of them would easily cost over $1000. These are included in the price of a $1500 bike, and the wheels are lightweight. While riding, they make a cool sound. The only disadvantage is that when it's windy outside, they behave like sails and require more attention when the wind picks up. Whatever the case may be, I adore them! br>br>When the bike arrived, it was far more fully assembled than I had expected. Putting it all together took only a few minutes. Within an hour of taking the bike out of the box, I was probably riding it. There was no shipping damage, and the shipping time was shorter than expected (approximately 20 days from click to delivery). br>br>Overall, I am very happy with my purchase and have thoroughly enjoyed riding this bike; however, there is a reason why this bike only has five-star ratings (at the time of writing this review). I would recommend this bike to anyone looking for a good 105 road bike with a carbon frame.

A "needle in the haystack" was discovered by me! Because I wanted to upgrade from a "robust but heavy" $189 road bike from Walmart to a more competitive model, I spent countless hours, days, and weeks researching and benchmarking models, makers, and recommendations from people who own bikes, I came across SAVA HERD6. br>In summary, this experience has been remarkable because the ease of ordering, Amazon's finance program, and the lightning-fast delivery straight from the factory provided me with an unforgettable experience, and now that I have ridden this bike for 275 miles in the first month of 2020, I am looking forward to riding it again. I have to say that it is a highly recommended product. br>One comment is that if you plan to buy a bike to compete in races, this is the right product for you, but I discovered that the crank set is only 2T 50/34 MS, with the smallest cassette at 11T, limiting its speed. You can find Shimano crank sets with 2T 53/39 or higher (I'm not sure if SAVA would custom build it for you with a larger set), but I did some research and discovered that increasing its crank sets will provide speed gains on flat terrains at the expense of extra effort on steep hills, so you must weigh your options if you decide to upgrade to gain speed. I also swapped out the factory seat for a Velo plush in order to have a more comfortable experience in my gluteus and its surroundings, as the factory seat is quite thin and difficult to stand for 3 hours on a 50-mile ride. or more. I will purchase products from them in the future.
