This bike was purchased by my father when I was a child and we are using it till now like a new bike. Mileage of bike is very good approx 60 - 65 kmpl in Indian markets.Bike is very light so its very easy for anyone to start biking with it. In case of reliability, I would prefer to say that all bike of Hero are made to keep our trust on them. New splendor looks so cool as anyone can purchase its desirable colour and design. Its pleasure to say that now it comes with self start. Using splendor is like using a bicycle so anyone can handle it easily.
