Rock100: The cheapest 100cc bike

By By: Saneesh Michael

The Rock100 features a 4-stroke engine, electronic self-start and kick-start facility, aerodynamic headlight with halogen bulb and sporty indicators. The company claims that it gives a maximum mileage of 125 km/litre which is higher than any bikes on Indian roads. Tachometer and gear indicators are among other features of the bike. The bike looks pretty contemporary to match the urban tastes. Sporty design and stylish body make the bike competent to any modern bike.

The popularity of the new bike is proved as advance bookings of 1,60,000 units have reached the manufacturers. Rock100 is the result of the revolution that if made affordable with quality performance the customer base for any product will shoot up in digits. The normal pricing of the commonly used bikes range from 40,000 to 60,000 which of course is affordable for a rural citizen. But Rock100 comes cheaper than the commonly used mopeds. After the price, it is the millage that matters when a bike is considered. 125Cc, possibly a bit less on road, is pretty good. Rock100 by all means, is the bike of common Indian man.
