I have been riding my Imola now for 10 months, it was great out of the box and the only change made was a new neck for fitment purposes, and I changed bar tape to black tape. The white was getting way to dirty.
The good:
- Price, duh.
- Great gear range for all types of riding.
- Clean looks get lots of complements
The not as good:
- I was not in love with the seat at first. I picked up a new PI pro bib and that made all the difference.
- Its light, but not that light. You may get carbon envy when you see the ultra light bikes going up the hills.
- The groupset needs adjusting semi regularly. I have adjusted it once a month or so. Upgrading soon to 105 black!
Overall thoughts:
I love the bike! This bike proved to me that I love cycling. As my first road bicycle the experience has been great. I am outgrowing the groupset that came with the package and will be upgrading soon.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this bike to anyone. Buy it, ride it, love it.

3 weeks ago I recieved my Tommoso Imola from GiantNerd
I am a first time rider, and I have been riding my Tommaso Imola for 3 weeks. I started with a 8 mile ride, then a 10 mile, 20 mile, and now I am doing 40 mile rides on my Imola. Thanks to the experience of owning the Tommaso Imola and riding it for the last 3 weeks, I can honestly say I love riding and will continue with the sport for a long time to come.
