I ordered the Vaast R/1

"I ordered the Vaast R/1 ultegra about a month ago and I'm very happy with it. It came quickly and I didn't need to take it to a shop for assembly -- easy to put together. I've been riding it about two or three times per week and have been loving it! It's fast and smooth. I would make a note that the handlebar tape needed to be replaced immediately -- it started shedding it's top layer even before my first ride. If I were to buy again, I would have some already prepared when it arrived. This isn't a big deal for me, so no loss of star. Especially considering the price of around $1600, I'm very happy with the purchase so far."

Bike was impeccably packaged &

"Bike was impeccably packaged & delivered w/o a single blemish on the box. Noticed cobwebs in the spokes, which was no matter yet I did make it a point to lube fittings, apply some Wolf Tooth bar tape, install toe cages, a modest CatEye cyclometer, some 30mm GreenGuard tread & a ShockStop stem ~ All told, am one happy clam & I believe my son will enjoy it for years to come ~"
