Would not recommend this bike
If all you want is a multi speed aluminum frame bike at a reasonable price and you can get free shipping, then this bike is OK. It does have Shimano gearing, but everything else is generic non-branded product. The bike is overpriced, but when you take into consideration sales taxes and shipping the effective price is about $120.00 less. Sears charges over $100. to ship the same bike. The bike is about 85% assembled out of the box, but my box did not include a manual, the instructions were for another bike and so are some of the parts included. There is no web site for ZeroGrav, no model number, and found no warranty information on this bike. Based on all the information I now have, I would not buy this bike, nor recommend it.

Damaged in shipping • NOT A GOOD BUY
I read the other reviews so I knew I was getting a cheap entry level road bike. Just to verify, yes very little low-end Shimano components. And the tires are not going to make it around the block. I was also disappointed that they did not put quick-release on the front wheel. They put one on the seat though. I would have rather the rim, guys. But the saying, "you get what you pay for" is coming to mind.The real issue is that it is pretty banged up from poor packaging and I guess from being only 20 pounds the monkeys at UPS decided to see how far they could launch it a few times. They slipped the crank through the front rim so a spoke is bent and the rim is no longer true. Several scratches to the frame with two down to the metal. I guess we should be glad aluminum won't rust?Nothing is tuned. So expect some serious time yanking on cables. While adjusting the front caliper, we noticed a washer out of sequence and had to remove it to reassemble the brake.Sorry folks.This one is NOT A GOOD BUY.

54 cm Aluminium Road Bike
Just bought this bike.All I can say it is crappy.Also remember the title is misleading "Shimano".The only components that are shimano are:1.rear gear cassette2.rear derailleur3.front derailleurI wanted an inexpensive road bike under $300.Was thinking between GMC Denali Road Bike and this one.And went with this one since it is only 20 pounds compared to GMC's 25 pounds.Now i regret that i have purchased this one.Cons:1.Tires are inexpensive and they were bent when delivered (may be due to packing)2.The left pedal did not have proper threading and it did not fit at all3.Brake levers are cheap inexpensive and even the pedals4.You don't even want to use the seat.5.The water bottle that came with this bike can be thrown away immediately.6.The crank is bent,so it continuously rubs against the front derailleur.The frame,handle and the rest are ok, but may due to the packaging there are lot of scratches when the bike arrived.The bike is black and they are clearly visible.Overall this bike is not worth $250.The only thing that is worth is the frame may be.I did not even ride it because i could not even fix the left pedal to it.I have contacted the seller and they have asked to take pictures of the items,which doesn't make sense to me.How can one show slightly bent tires,crank and the thread of the pedal that doesn't fit!
