    • Today visited a new riding gear showroom in Gurgaon. It has a pretty good collection of stuff. Best part is that the rates are cheaper/equal to the rates i was quoted in mahalaxmi and chopra.
      Address:

      High Riders
      Opp Raj Cinema
      Old delhi gurgaon road (near the mahavir chowk)

        This place is owned by the Mahalakhsmi guys. Someone in his family has started this and the stuff is supplied by Mahalakshmi

            • Am planning to get a Cramster Pulse from the same place this weekend or next.

              Just wanted to know one more thing.. Do you guys use your riding jackets while commuting to work in formals?

                Yup. Isnt a problem unless
                1. Your shirt has a tendency to get crumpled easily
                2. Your commute is long cause you might start sweating with the jacket on

                  Egg-jag-ly! I too had a hard time locating it. Though the industrial complex is quiet well known by the locals...provided you know how to get there at the first place. Anyway, they told me that I can order stuff by phone and can be paid on delivery on the same day itself if you are within mumbai ONLY. Of course you have to use common sense and order them well before their shop closes to receive on the same day. Call them or look up their website here

                  • IMO its possible to visit, then going there and getting the gear by oneself is the best option. Since we'll be spending 5k for it, best to try out different sizes and take the best fit

                    The down side is, that there'll be a lot of temptation to shell out some more $$$ on other goodies that will be there

                      temptation..what temptation? Its guaranteed . You'll end up buying more than you intended. I did .

                      • Hi Riders,
                        Got Myself a pair of Joe Rocket's GPX hand gloves couple of days ago.

                        • @ alligator. nice gloves there buddy.

                          I wanna ask which one is the best jacket amongst the DSG maze, Phoenix and nero is good. AFAIK i guess maze comes with CE armor in elbow and shoulder, and the back protector is foam... Does that make any difference. Can someone shed some light on this? and help me out with the choice?..
                          A fact -- It takes more love to share the pillion seat, than to share the bed.

                            • @Alligator: The Joe Rocket gauntlet look superb! The quality is unmatchable. I am sure you paid quite a lot for this? The normal Cramster/ DSG/ Motogear gauntlets retail for about Rs.2,500 INR. How much did you get these Joe Rocket gauntlets for?
                              :)
