      This bike is really good if you're looking for a good-looking mileage friendly bike on a tight budget and don't want to stick with splendor. The engine is reliable and extremely mileage friendly. I get around 65kmpl in city traffic rides. The features might not be THAT useful for you but the core aspects of the bike are very nice.
