i checked out LA Sovereign Urbano online. its totally different from the type i use. is that low handle comfortable? also i live in a hilly area. so half the distance i cover is uphill. is that kind of cycle and handle good to do uphill?

anandsharma021

lt takes 2-3 rides to get used to lower handle bar position. It is aggressive yet comfortable. This position is more aerodynamic.
If u do more of uphill than u should think twice as it is available only in compact(53-39) crank option and road-bike have low gear-ratios compared to mtb or hybrid. But test-ride of the bike can give u a fair idea that it suits to ur needs or not. If this bike fits u well and suits ur riding needs, then there is nothing compared to this bike in this price range. Its one of best budget road-bikes available right now.
Bike comes only in one standard size that is 50 cm. suitable for people of 5.3" to 5.8" height.

I am 6'1" tall and need a bike with good ride and handling for commuting in city and exercising. My budget is around 30k. Please suggest a bike for me.

For city commuting a hybriad or road bike is unmatched. For hybriads, you can check Bianchi Aeron sport & Bianchi spillo quarzo.

In road-bikes you can have a look at Trek 1.2- it is around 41k.

First of all, congrats for your new bike. BSA Mach is a decent bike for beginners. You made the right decision. Ride it for some time-period and then upgrade to a decent road-bike. You can have a look at LA Sovereign Urbano, Trek 1.2 & 1.5, Bianchi Nirone 7.
