    Finally purchased RR 5.3. I would like to thank everyone for their valuable suggestions and recommendations. Bought it for 32k including accessories like wireless bike computer, rear light, spare tube, tyre levers, Allen key set, helmet, gloves, lock, stand, bottle cage, pump.
    my first ride was of 41 kms. Found my riding position little uncomfortable. Hopefully I will be able to counter this by using softer handle grips and also raised bar ends.

    Congrats. You bought the bike went for a ride and still no photos ?? Why?
    Biking is not about what you have between your legs, its all about how well you use it!!!!!!!

        It depends on what are you planning to use the bike for? Commuting, trail riding etc.

            If you are looking at road cycling then go for a Hybrid or even a roadbike. Before you buy a bike, do ride a roadbike and see how you like it!

                  Buy a better quality second hand bike from Cyclop. You will get good deals in 20k.
