A very well built bike with stunning looks. But just double check every nut and bolt.
1st off let me start by saying I was not expecting much of this bike, and boy I was wrong.The frame is very very light. If I didn't see the perfect welds I would think it was carbon. The wheels are what adds the weight to this bike. And over all it is still very light. Carbon wheels would make this bike super light. Although the wheels that is comes with are very nice aluminum type.The brakes are great once adjusted, and the fit and finish is exellent. However I am changing brake levers to fit my bars My wheels were true and everything worked correctly.I added some TT bars and a carbon seat. Which saved even more weight. My carbon wheels are on the way. If you are looking for a very nice well made bike for the money this is it. With a few carbon upgrades this bike looks and rides like bikes 4 times as much. By the way I am 6 ft tall and this bike fits like a glove in TT trim.This bikes TT geometry sold me. I am very happy with my Dioko.It is worth it to mention that as far as some features shown in the pictures are not on this bike (or a least mine) such as a water bottle bosses, and a nice chain. The chain that comes with it is subpar. Also be sure to check everything before your 1st ride even the fixed gear. Mine was not tight.Update. After 500 miles on this bike I have found zero faults. It performs amazing. I have done ton of carbon upgrades as well as a lighter crank and graphics. I have got this bike down to 18 lbs without adding new wheels yet. I wish I could give it more stars!Update #2. 800 miles and still going strong. Added superlight wheels and every piece of carbon that I could and have gotten this bike to 13lbs on the nose. The frame is 1st rate. I hope others have the luck that I have had with theirs. Also added some new graphics. Now looks like a Scapin. See pics. Very happy with my purchase.

I can say that this bike holds up pretty well; she’s been beat
After about a month of usage, I can say that this bike holds up pretty well; she’s been beat, hit by cars, etc etc. What I will say, is that it’s pretty heavy out of the box— I’ve since then added carbon to pretty much every component possible & there is a HUGE difference.The bike is great, especially at its price point. With a few upgrades, you’ll be pushing this bikes maximum potential

Cool lookin'
Well, I'm 5'11" and the bike fits a little small. It has a very tight turn as well which takes getting used too. Mine came with a bent spoke - but I don't really mind. Overall it's a great bike. Nice and lite and aesthetically pleasing.

For $350 not bad
A lot of heads turn when I ride .....but I think I've cleared up an issue... I've gotten 4 flats in 2months and come to find out there is a plastic material on the inside of the rim where the tube sits on ...do yourself a favour and take that out asap get some rim tape for the inner part of the rim and thank me later..(it should be done for all bike)so check that out if you have a lot flat issues....N.Y. Isn't cold get so ill get some more time to ride

perfect bike for the price point
Quick delivery, perfect bike for the price point. Please adjust your brake pads so that your wheel decals remain in tact other than that enjoy your ride.

Great bike. But the brakes...
It was well packaged, came with no dent, no scratches.But one thing that I didn’t like was the brake. I removed the back brake so I don’t know about the back, but the front brake wasn’t fully touching the front wheel.Except that, everything else seems good :)

The aesthetics are great, but there are too many inherent issues to make it worth it.
UPDATE: Returning the bike given that they did not respond to any requests to service the dented frame. Will not be purchasing a replacement bike from them.I purchased this bike because I was looking for an attractive and high-quality track frame with the potential for upgrades. However, while this bike is attractive, it lacks the quality I was looking for and the customer service to address these issues.As alternatives to the Dioko bike, these are the options I wish I went with:1. Buying from a reputable manufacturer with customer service (look at the Specialized Langster or Fuji Track instead for example).2. Building a bike myself with quality sourced parts. Spend a little more on a nice alloy frame and buy a quality groupset. You can also get a lot of affordable carbon products parts online/overseas (including deep section carbon wheels).As far as the Dioko Zico, here is my honest review:Pros:- Head turner on the roads- Reasonably lightweight but has the potential to be a lot lighterCons:- Received a dented frame and the seller JOYCE LIFE is unresponsive to replacing it. Note that this is especially important for alloy as they can shatter from damage whereas steel frames absorb it better. Trying to figure out a way to pop out the dent and fix the paint but mostly worried about the structural integrity.- The wheels are not trued by any means. Now I didn't expect them to be perfectly trued but there are parts of the wheel that the brakes don't touch and other parts where the brakes rub. The wheel is securely positioned in the forks and the brakes were centered so the only variable left is the wheel.- The seat drops and rotates around regardless of how hard the seatpost clamp is tightened or how much friction paste I use. I suspect it is a faulty or low quality clamp component. It's also near impossible to find the right replacement part to fit this frame since it is a niche brand.- Many of the parts are of low quality like the seat, seatpost clamp, pedals, brakes, chain, tires that'll need to be replaced. I'll probably replace the non-depreciating parts first and replace the chain/tires when they are worn.
