        This bike is affordable for middle-class riders and offers superb off-road capabilities. It has low maintenance costs, decent mileage, good braking, and strong overall performance. The only drawback I’ve noticed is the slightly rough seating, but apart from that, everything is perfect. Truly loved it.
