I have used one to commute and grab business cards. The bike is made of Chrome Molly and the frame is strong and durable. I would highly recommend these bikes.

It is my fav bike, a fixie, and I own three. Rides like a dream. Picked it up for 200$ from the 300$ that it was advertised at. Lovin it. Wish there were more reviews online for Virtue.

Simple as that. I was forced over there not by choice but because I wanted to stay in business. What cost me $400 to make here costs $120 to make there. And I ship all materials over from the u.s.. Maintaining control of the factory is the key. For all those that bitch about Chinese made 99% of them are unwilling to pay the premium for us made. The toothpaste is not going back in the tube. I just bought a virtue 6 from the bicycle stand in long beach ca. Of my 9 bikes this is the best I own . Bar none!

Haven’t heard about the other components.

Is there a catch somewhere? I wonder what the quality is, given they’re manufactured in China (instead of, say, Taiwan).
