10 Best Mens Road Bikes
for December 2023

The Casulo electric bike is a well-priced, versatile electric bicycle that rides well, cruises gracefully, and is great fun to ride. It has most of the features youd expect from a high-end electric bicycle, including front suspension, front and rear lights, and disc brakes. And the Casulos 350W rear hub motor delivers plenty of power, with speeds up to 32km/h (20mph). The Casulo is step-through, making it easy to mount and dismount, and it rides like a mountain bike, with responsive handling, good traction, and a comfortable, upright riding position. The pedal assist mode is quiet, and the torque sensor throttle mode delivers enough power for most riders. The Casulo even has some nice touches, like front and rear suspension and kickstand. The Casulo is currently the best electric bicycle in our test, but it faces competition from several other good, affordable e-bikes, including the Raleigh eZip, the Yamaha PW-X, the Mongoose eSuper, and the Currie Electro-Bicycle.

The Redfire Hybrid Road Bike is an easy-to-ride, comfortable city bike that is ideal for commuting, running errands, and casual rides. It's lightweight, and its 700c wheels roll effortlessly over pavement and gravel. The 700c wheel size provides nimble handling, and the bike has a lower center of gravity, which helps it feel more responsive when riding. The bike is easy to assemble, and we were able to put it together in less than 30 minutes. It has 21 speeds, and we found the ratios to be ideal for riding over moderately hilly terrain and for cruising on flat ground. The bike has front and rear disc brakes, which provide steady, smooth stops. The bike is versatile enough to be used for commuting and running errands as well as for casual riding, and the tires provide a good amount of traction. The bike's 19-inch frame is well-suited to adult riders 56 to 61, and the 21-inch frame is well-suited to adult riders 60 to 64.

The OBK XC550 road bike delivers solid performance, but it falls short in a few key areas. The bike's 21-speed shifting is simple to use, and the wheels were smooth and balanced on test rides. The bike's 700C wheels are a bit of a step down from the 29-inch wheels on other bikes in our test group, but the difference is small enough that it was hardly noticeable on flat roads or trails. The bike is reasonably priced, and the 21-speed shifting makes the bike a good choice for riders who aren't very familiar with shifting. The bike's disc brakes were a little slow to respond, and the brakes didn't provide much stopping power on hard braking. The bike's frame is 54cm, which is a bit shorter than most bikes we tested, and very tall riders may struggle to get a good fit. The bike's seat is also low, so tall riders may find it uncomfortable.

If you're shopping for your first road bike or upgrading from a department store model, the PanAme's road bike is a great choice. It's less expensive than many other similarly equipped models, and it's more comfort-oriented than race-oriented. We liked the way it handled on surfaces ranging from paved to rough, and the upgraded components, including the new Shimano 105 22-speed drivetrain and hydraulic brakes, make it feel fast and nimble. The bike is easy to install, and the assembly instructions were very clear. The bike is also lightweight, so it's more maneuverable than heavier models. The bike has suspension in both the front fork and the rear shock, and we found both to be very effective for dampening road vibrations. The bike's seat is narrow, and it doesn't have suspension, so it's less comfortable than some bikes, but most people will find it more than adequate for short commutes or weekend rides.

The Hiland Aluminum Road Bike is a solid value for the money. While it's not as light or as aerodynamic as our top pick, the Hiland can handle bumps and potholes better and is made for riders up to about 6 feet tall. The frame is made from aluminum, which gives it a slightly heavier feel than some carbon bikes, but it's lighter than our pick's steel frame. The 700C wheels have wide tires, which make them less aerodynamic, but also better for handling on bad roads. The bike's handlebars are closer to the rider's body, which makes for a more comfortable ride. The bike has 21 gears, which is enough for most road cyclists. The Shimano rear derailleur is versatile, and it's easy to set up, thanks to Shimano's Quick Release System. The bike comes with a kickstand, but it doesn't have a bell or lights, so you'll need to add those if you want them to be functional. If you want an affordable road bike that can handle most road cyclists' needs, the Hiland Aluminum Road Bike is a great choice.

The YH-XC550 road bike is a comfortable road bike that rides smoothly and quietly, and is fairly light for a bike of its size. The frame is constructed from lightweight aluminum, and the suspension fork provides a comfortable ride. The 21-speed Shimano drivetrain has a wide range of gears, and the dual disc brakes provide reliable stopping power. The 54cm frame is a good match for most people, and the frame is narrow enough so the bike fits on crowded city bike lanes. The 700C wheels offer a smooth ride, and the bike rolls well on pavement and over bumpy pavement. The bike is sturdy and well-built, and will last for several years of riding.

The Trinx TEMPO1.0 700C Road Bike is a well-built, affordable bike for tackling a variety of terrain. The frame is reasonably lightweight for an aluminum bike, and it's made of strong 6061 aluminum. The frame comes in at just over 5 pounds, which is fairly lightweight for an aluminum bike, and the 56cm frame length is suitable for most riders. The 700C wheels spin on double-wall alloy rims with aero-grade Winzip tires, which provide good grip and traction on a variety of surfaces. The 700C wheels provide a nice balance of speed and stability, and, thanks to the wide tires, the TEMPO1.0 is a good bike for riding on rough roads. The bike's components are all reliable, and while the Shimano A050 shifters are a little dated, the Shimano TZ500 front and rear derailleurs offer plenty of range, and the Shimano TZ500 cassettes offer plenty of gears. While the TEMPO1.0 is a fairly basic bike, it's a nice value for the money, and it's a fun bike to ride.

The Vilano R2 Commuter is a good choice for those who commute by bicycle, whether it's to work or for leisure purposes. It's comfortable, lightweight, and easy to ride, and it's reasonably priced. The Shimano 105 components provide smooth, reliable shifting, and the Axis Sync internal gear hub makes the bike's gearing intuitive. The bike does feel somewhat cheap, however, and the tires aren't the best quality, so we'd recommend upgrading to a better brand if you want a better ride.

The Giordano Libero is an affordable, good-looking road bicycle that proved comfortable for a full day's riding. The aluminum frame is lightweight, strong, and well-proportioned. The brakes are strong, the rear tire has good traction, and the front tire rolls smoothly and quietly. The bike is easy to set up, and comes with 700c wheels, so you'll have no trouble fitting it onto most bike racks (the wheels aren't quick release, so you'll need a wrench to remove the wheel). The bike's components are average, but at this price point, the bike is more than adequate. The Giordano Libero is a good choice for anyone looking for an entry-level road bike, but you want something that's attractive, comfortable, and can last for years.

For riders who are looking for a high performance road bicycle, the XC560 Classic is a great choice. This bike has 21 speeds, making it an excellent choice for riders who want to be able to experience a wide range of speeds while riding. With its 700c (26-inch) wheels, it also has a much lighter overall weight than most road bikes, which makes it an excellent choice for riders who prefer an upright position, or for riders who want to be able to ride longer distances with ease. The bike has a comfortable seat, which has an 8-degree forward slope, which can be adjusted to 3 degrees to get a more upright position. The saddle height is adjustable as well, so riders can adjust it to their liking. The bike also has wide handlebars, which make for more comfortable riding, and they are also adjustable, so riders can adjust them to their liking.
