Gear Speed

• Single Speed

  For hassle-free riding within a city. Low maintenance and cost of ownership. Perfect for flatlands.

• 6-7 Speed

  Ideal for small climbs within a city, like flyovers. Simple enough with gears shifting only on your right hand.

• 9-12 Speed

  Optimized gear ratios for city and light trail riding. With gears only on the rear sprocket, shifting on the right side of the bar is straightforward. Suited for MTB riding with very steep gradients.

• 16-20 Speed

  Mostly used in road groupsets, providing enough ratio for usage on tarmac climbs and descents. Reduces shifting complications by removing redundant gears.

  Gear ratios that help you tackle any kind of climbs or descents. With three rings on the chainwheel and multiple on the freewheel, this is suitable for climbs up to a 16-degree gradient.

Suspension

• Rigid

  Rigid forks offer less power loss and are perfect for paved roads. They are also lighter and easier to maintain, making them ideal for urban commuters.

• Front

  Suspension forks that absorb any imperfections on the road. They take the beating so that you don't, reducing strain on your arms and wrists. Best for light off-road use and city streets with bumps.

• Double

  Front and rear suspension for maximum shock absorption on rough terrain. Also known as full suspension, this setup is perfect for mountain biking and aggressive trail riding.

• Centre

  Provides improved control, traction, and comfort on uneven surfaces. It refers to a rear shock absorber placed in the center of the frame.

Frame Height / Rider Height

Note: Frame height is measured from the center of the crank to the top of the seat tube. It is a critical factor for a comfortable ride, ensuring proper leg extension and standover clearance.
