The wheelset is a bit on the heavy side too.
The headset grinds a little, and there is some drag on the drivechain. It handles beautifully, even up over 30 miles an hour. It's not the lightest bike on the planet, but it's pretty fast and takes bumps very well. For me, price was the main concern in buying a bike, and I think that this one is well worth the money. My housemate paid more for his Schwinn Le Tour, but this Iron Horse is lighter and has better components. It took about 30 minutes to get assembled (I have a lot of experience working on bikes), but it needed a bit of fine tuning (the derailleurs were not well adjusted and needed to be properly aligned). I was kind of weary about buying a bike over the internet, but my fears have been allayed. Wonderful!Well, I've had the bike for about 3 days now and I've put over 75 miles on it already. Any other bike i found with carbon forks, and shimano tiagra components started around $750. Great DealThis is a great deal for the money. I loved the bike, and the price was fantastic. Great bike!I bought this bike and in the same week rode 150 miles in a charity ride. When I went to get a replacement tire at a local bicycle shop, the owner who has been in business for 35 years told me that the quality of Iron Horse has gone down so much in recent years that he no longer services them, let alone sells them. The plastic pedal attachments have a very cheap feel, and after only three rides there is a problem with one of the actual pedals. Also, three small pieces, two on the handlebars and one on the stem fell off before I had a chance to ride it. Before riding it I had to replace the front tire because of a puncture in the tube, and damage to the valve and valve cap. Out of the box the handlebar tape was loose. Iron Horse Triumph 5.0 Adult Road Bike Low Quality, Even For An Entry-Level Road BikeThis bike reeks of shoddy workmanship.
