A few folk said this jade delivered a smooth ride.
At least one owner felt that the saddle was comfortable.

The Rapido revealed stupendous handling capabilities to some owners.

13 reasons not to buy

Toeverlap was an issue. The aggressive fixed-gear geometry was unexpected for some owners, who couldn’t tolerate the turning wheel’s proximity to their toes.
Handling was described as not being responsive.
The weight of this plug was a frequent complaint. It was deemed heavier than average, largely due to a a steel seatpost, bars and other components.
No-name brakes delivered often unremarkable / sometimes undetectable stopping-power. They were difficult to adjust and many owners chose to replace pads immediately.
Handlebars loosened themselves, requiring sanding to increase friction.
Cranks were weak and exhibited excess flex. Failure was common from 2 days to 2 months use.
Decals were numerous, ‘ugly’ and sometimes arrived peeling.
Damage on new models included a bent fork, a broken brake and damaged bottom bracket.
The bike infrequently lacked lubrication and the rear hub needed to be opened and repacked with grease.
Owners remarked on the saddle’s ability to be simultaneously squishy and painful. A few buyers pointed out that the seatpost is a 27.2mm diameter - and not 25.4, as advertised.
Riders decried the thin, hard grip-tape which was painful on longer rides.
The Rapido is offered in one size, which is represented online with differing measurements.
When riding fixed, the lockring and cog sheared off (twice for one owner, threatening safety), and was unable to be repaired by a local bike shop.

Bottom line

Maybe this bike earned its name from the hasty decision-making process required to make the purchase. Most high-level ratings for the bike came from eager customization hobbyists, who were happy to swap out many or most of the sub-par components. That said, those that chose to do this were sometimes still riding their bike after two years of regular use. Many buyers were somehow surprised that the drop-bars necessitate a bent-over ‘racing’ position when riding. To some, it was uncomfortable. A fair number of owners suggested that equal value would be gained from spending a bit more money to acquire a better quality bike. I’ll leave you with the words of one consumer-reviewer, “This is a cheap bicycle and it shows. I have buyer's remorse.“
