5.0 out of 5 stars 5 year review - tough bike and she's still going strong!
(function() { P.when('cr-A', 'ready').execute(function(A) { if(typeof A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel === 'function') { A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel('review_text_read_more', 'Read more of this review', 'Read less of this review'); } }); })(); .review-text-read-more-expander:focus-visible { outline: 2px solid #2162a1; outline-offset: 2px; border-radius: 5px; } I bought this bike 5 years ago and she's still in great shape! I'm a large guy, 6'4, 230lbs, and I ride the rough trails of the Wasatch here in Utah. Steep, rocky terrain. I'm amazed at what this bike has put up with over the years. It is a bit heavy, but with that comes long-term durability and strength.Like any and all bikes, I've had to do my fair share of maintenance on it over the years, but none of the primary components that came with the bike have failed. Same derailers, same shifters, same discs.I had my reservations when I bought a bike from China, but US mountain bike prices are outrageous. Who wants to drop several thousand on a good bike? My original purchase price was $450, so the price has gone up, just like everything else in the world.Thousands of pounding miles later, she's still a champ. If you're looking for a large, quality hardtail mountain bike that's affordable and will last a long time, give this one a shot.The tires that come stock aren't the greatest for mountain biking, I'd recommend upgrading to a quality tire if you're into tough and rocky trails. I also replaced the pedals with Chester pedals, and the seat with a more comfortable and squishier seat (never understood thin narrow hard seats). Also fits paniers and saddle bags quite well due to its large size.
4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty good bike!
1. The bike arrives within 4 days of ordering - awesome!2. The bike is easy to put together. Took me about 30 minutes, taking your time to enjoy the process and doing it right.3. You need to have allen/hex keys, wrench, screwdriver.4. You should have chain oil and grease to lube the joints and chain.5. You need to bring the bike to a bike shop to tweak it in order to get a warranty.6. Make sure you order the correct size. I am 6ft tall and the large size is the correct one for me.7. The handlebars are wide "for better stability" but that may be tricky for squeezing between city traffic.8. The bike is strong, well-built, and has enough gears to climb anything, but it is not a speedster.9. The front fork has a suspension that feels a little bouncy at first - like riding a horse.10. The saddle is a pain in the ass and needs to be upgraded.11. The brakes are awesome, just awesome.12. The pedals are basic.I am enjoying the bike and would recommend it.* UPDATEThe crank became loose after two weeks. I should have done point number 5. The bike store fixed it and did a full checkup - well, well worth doing.
1.0 out of 5 stars Defective Product - Unreasonable Warranty
I have had the bike for 6 months and ridden it twice. On the second ride the entire crank arm came off the bike. It wasn't part of the installation and came already installed from the manufacturer. In my mind, that would be a manufacturer defect and covered by warranty.To my surprise, I contacted Tomasso to submit a warranty claim and was quickly told that the crank arm is not covered by the warranty. How can that be when I did not install it and it was obviously defective from the factory.Word to the wise, you can get an equal or better bike at an equal or better price from a more reputable and honest company who will cover their manufacturing defects under warranty. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND steering clear of Tomasso!
5.0 out of 5 stars Great bike for big guys!
I'm not a real big review writer, but I felt the need to write this review for the bigger folks out there who are trying to decide if this bike is good for them.To start, I'm like alot of people, who hasn't ridden a bike in years, but wants to start getting out there to get some form of exercise. I have very bad knees and walking for miles, tears up my joints, so I wanted something with less impact on my body.I also knew that I didn't want some box store run of the mill bike that wouldn't last (again I'm a big guy) but also knew, I didn't need a $3000 carbon bike, with full suspension either. So that brought me to Bolo.I live in the middle of nowhere, and don't have any bike shop close to try bikes and have one tuned and all that, so I had to kinda wing it. Trying to find a bike in extra large, for a guy who is 6'4", and weighs right at 270 lbs, proved to be a bit of a headache. I got caught up in all the specs, and being right on the cusp of the weight limit of so many bikes, had me hesitant to say the least. Logic then kicked in, and I started looking at what I'm really after in a bike. The answer is, to be able to get out with minimal impact on my knees, so both me and my dogs can get exercise. I'm not jumping, downhilling, or even trail riding. I'm literally riding around town on gravel roads.So that made me realize, alot of the cautions, and prerequisite's didn't really pertain to me. I would maybe worry about the weight limit, if you are going to launch this thing down mountain sides or try to jump huge jumps, or anything like that. If you are not, this bike will be perfect! It very well may do all that stuff as well, I don't know. I just know what it will do as I've experienced.If these bikes are supposed to be tuned, by a professional, they must do a pretty dang good job at the factory, because I literally assembled it, rode it and have had zero issues.All you have to do, is install the front wheel, handlebars, seat tube, and in my case, a new seat. The original seat is not good for a big person. I got one of those plush gel seats off Bolo, and man it made a HUGE difference.This bike rolls great! I've never ridden a bike that is so smooth! I got on and peddled a couple rotations and could not believe the ease at which this thing got going. I was in second gear up front and 3rd out back. The range of gears this thing has is absolutely amazing! 24 in total! Thankfully the brakes are equally as impressive, because I was a bit jerky at slow speeds and turning at first, since I'm not used to the large 29 inch tires. The larger tires really do make this bike ride over rocks and dips and bumps with ease. I've also never ridden a bike with a front shock before, so that was pretty impressive as well!I know this review wasn't a whole lot about the bike, but instead about the type of person I am, and riding style I will be using it for, to maybe help alleviate any concerns another big person may have, if they are looking at this bike. I've ridden about 25 miles already, in 2 days, just trying to get a feel for this bike and could not be happier! I have ZERO regrets purchasing this bike and if I ever need or want another bike, I'll probably look at this company again.
2.0 out of 5 stars Bike warranty
I was not informed when I made the purchase that I do not have any warranty because I did not pay the 125.00 to have the bike assembled by an authorized bike shop. I would not have purchased the bike If I had been informed of that before purchase.
4.0 out of 5 stars Not bad for the price
Not a bad bike for the price, i feel like all all the cables should be guided inside the frame, also the bike did not come with a kickstand.
