I perchased this bike 15 days back its awesome and comfortable for riding. Usually it gives moderate milege, and I thought it may useful for race(i recommend you guys). I feel it has some good facilitated braking systems as compared to old models. It is an 4.85 star bike.Ii has awesome handling and controllability. It need some good maintainance especially in rural areas because usually the roads in rural areas are not at good conditions.
