or
- YOU DON’T NEED TO SPEND MORE THAN $600: Because Tommaso is a direct to the consumer brand you can now get a bike with 100% Shimano gears, super lightweight aluminum frame, and lightweight wheels for under $600. Tommaso gives you value like no other brand. We provide a lifetime frame warranty and great service through our U.S. based customer service team.
- THE IMOLA IS AFFORDABLE PERFORMANCE, NOT ENTRY LEVEL: If you are just getting into cycling or returning after a long hiatus, this is your bike. New and returning cyclists don’t need “beginner bikes”, that won’t meet your needs or last. You deserve affordable performance! The Imola embodies the idea of affordable performance with a full Shimano groupset you hope is on bikes costing $100’s more. Compare the Imola’s specs with any bike, and you will see the difference between us and the competition
- STEP UP TO THE BRAND NEW SHIMANO CLARIS R2000: The Shifters, Derailleurs, Crank, and Brakes are all new 2018 Claris. R2000 Claris STI shifters now mimic 105 and Tiagra components up the line. Cables are routed under the bar for a clean look that shifts perfectly. Only bikes with integrated shifters and brake levers will perform at optimal levels. Don’t be fooled by imitators using off-brand cranks or shifters, they aren’t optimized for Shimano gearing and can’t deliver precision shifting.
- YOU DESERVE A COMFORTABLE RIDE: Our compact frame geometry offers a more relaxed position for all riding styles, with a shallow handlebar drop so that you can still be comfortable when riding in the lower handlebar position. We even added extra control on turns by equipping the Imola with wider 25mm, 700c road bike tires. Every part of the Imola is designed for maximum comfort and efficiency, so that you can get the most out of every ride
- BUILT TO LAST: All too often things are made cheaply and break before their time. We believe that bikes should be reliable and built to last. This is why we use the highest quality aluminum in our bikes, and back it with our industry leading lifetime warranty. We also use only Shimano components, which are backed up with Shimano’s two year warranty and are designed function better and last longer than anything else on the market. Ride with confidence, knowing your new bike was built to last!

one more thing- tbh, while i wait for my custom, i bought a really cheap mail order bike. it's got shimano claris components (basically the super bargain level of shimano stuff for road bikes) but the bike fits me pretty well and while I'm not breaking any speed or endurance records, it's worked out pretty well. (I'm 5'9" but have a 29" inseam which is short, so I got a size SMALL which is 53cm according to the frame). It's light enough, it's got a good feel from my novice perspective, and I slammed 50 miles on it with no issues at all the other day. Even the saddle, which I expected to SUCK, was actually decent.
It's a fair bit more than $330cad, but it might be something to think about for ya as an entry level road-ripper if that's what you're looking for. https://www.amazon.com/Tommaso-Endurance-Aluminum-Shimano-Claris/dp/B00LRSVPVM
But as many others will likely suggest, you could probably get a really sweet used bike for a decent price, too. Just remember that a lot of bike tools are /r/specializedtools/ so you'll likely need to bring any used bike you buy into your local bike shop to check every single component for performance and safety and that usually starts at $60 USD/ $79 CAD so there will always be an additional expense if you don't have the proper tools. To be fair, my mail order Tommaso I recommended didn't require anything other than some allen/hex keys, white lithium grease (for pedals) and an adjustable wrench to dial in and get road ready, so it's all up to what you feel comfortable with/what you want to do. Happy trails, brother!
