An appreciable decrease is seen in the use of bicycles as a major mode of
transport in the last couple of decades. This is mainly due to which the pace
at which the world is changing. The bicycle though is still very popular among
playful schoolchildren and is also a major mode of transport in certain
college campuses and in rural areas. The teen bikes (boys) come in various
price ranges depending on accessories like shock absorbers, gears etc. Among
the low priced models (without the above given accessories) the brand NITROGEN
from the Hero group of cycles is worth a praise. priced at Rs.1999/- it
outclasses many other brands in the same price range like the THRILLER, TRACER
and AXN from the Hercules group and MACHO from the Atlas group of cycles. The
Nitrogen is a newer and modified of the DEVIL which was common a couple of
years ago The construction of the bike is ideal as for instance the distance
between the seat and the handle is inch perfect unlike the axn which is
uncomfortable due to the short length. The braking system has a much longer
lifetime than any of the other brands especially the macho which is poorly
rated for this fact. The seat is another part which is worth a mention. It is
neither too soft nor too hard with a waterproof layer making it the best in
the fray. It is available in four flashy colours which being black, red,
silver blue and silver red. It too has reflectors placed at certain places
giving it a royal look after dusk. The HERO NITROGEN is a best buy for people
looking for a simple, enduring and economical bike.
