What is the difference between this bike and this one: http://www.amazon.com/Performance-Hyb...

This Vilano has linear pull brakes, or V-brakes, (used on hybrids and mtn bikes) which are much better than the Performance Commuter's caliper brakes(used on road bikes). The Vilano may use caliper brakes but the Performance Commuter cannot use linear pull brakes (due to lack of mounts). But you can get the expensive dual-pivot caliper brakes that can match the performance of linear pull brakes.

Hi, not sure what the difference is exactly, but I must admit that I find this one much better than the previous one. It is lighter and more durable so I fully recommend getting 83 slow. Sorry I can't be more of help

Wish I could help with your question. For me, it's a great bike, but the tires that came with it were too narrow for the best ride, even on roads. Changed tires and it's a great ride.

In my experience they have about the same range. They both use thesame motor and battery. The only difference is that the SS motor is factory set to run up to 28 mph.If you were to put both bikes on a flat surface and run them at maxyou would go a few miles further with the SS. But rarely do you runat full throttle all the time when riding normally.Kind RegardsJack

Based on feedback from other reviews I replaced the brakes before I used the bike! I am very very happy with the bike overall - by upgrading the brakes, the chain tensioner, and new rim tape. This is a screaming bike,make sure you have a bike shop give it a tune-up before riding.

BMX refers to the style. It's a dirt bike with knobby tires. Unlike some bikes that have smooth street tires.As far as I can tell, the handlebars are not any further away, but they are adjustable, as is the seat height.It's a good, tough little bike. If you have a kid that you think is going to ride the heck out of their bike, this is the bike. We're still happy with ours...

Hi,This cycle won't stack up against the pro bike you're used to 100%. For the price, it's just not possible. BUT, with that being said, I personally haven't found a pro bike that it doesn't stack up to based on price and quality. I've had mine for a while now. Not only was set up easy (roughly 45 mins as the previous user stated) but it has been working exceptionally well since I bought it. You are most likely used to a bit more in terms of bells and whistles, but this bike cuts that out (lowering cost) while maintaining amazing quality. I would sincerely recommend this bike to anyone; it has been that great of an experience having one. Hope this helps! Hi,This cycle won't stack up against the pro bike you're used to 100%.

I purchased my through Amazon strictly because I wanted it delivered somewhere specific. But Walmart would be a better choice for two reasons. 1 the bike comes assembled which is not hard to do but you do need a little bit of mechanical ability to make proper adjustments. The second reason is for sizing which I did not do and found out the bike is a little taller than I prefer.Hope this helpChris

You place your bike on it and ride indoors in place of riding outside.The difference is the bike is stationary.

Both are specification related questions which you can easily find on its website. What I can tell you it's a BMW of bike. Very good bike to own. I am very happy with the decision.

Although I purchased the Men's version, there is very little difference. I am very happy with this bike. It is extremely lite in weight and remains pretty rugged. It picks up speed with little effort and I love the ride. The only complaint I have is the tire tube needed replacement after only several Months.

I'm not aware of any of the bikes you are referencing. The key points to this bike that some others don't feature are a thicker durable frame for rougher terrain, the amount of gears, the double suspension, and the full sized wheels.

This is a GlideBike: http://www.glidebikes.com/ezee-glider - different brand. Most of these differences are more about preference. Personally both of my children love the design of this bike and a drop-tiered frame is more about aesthetics than anything else.

I have both scooters. No difference at all. Different retail stores where item was sold.

I am enjoying my bike. I am purchased the rear brake, and you may want a different set of handlebars. However, that would be a personal preference. I kept the stock handlebars. The rear brake was a big deal to me. I feel that it gives me more control over the bike.

This bike mostly has the same cheap components as the one I bought. The frame is similar but slightly different. It looks like this bike has better trigger shifters and a better rear deraileur. If so, it may be worth the difference in price. If you live near a large university and you can hold off until May or June, there are good deals to be had from students selling their bikes at the end of the school year.
