Recently Asked User Questions

Q. What is the difference between drum alloy and disc alloy - Passion Pro 110?
  • Drums are made from cast iron and are named for their “drum-like” shape. Drum brakes work by forcing 2 arched “shoes” housed within the drum, to expand outward into the inner wall of the spinning drum, using hydraulic and centrifugal force. This generates friction, slowing the drum and your bike.A disc brake system is comprised of a large metal rotor, 2 flat brake pads and a hydraulic clamp called a “caliper”. Pressing the brake with disc brakes, forces brake fluid to fill the caliper. A metal piston inside the caliper is then forced against the back of each brake pad. This presses the pad’s friction material against the spinning rotor, quickly slowing the brake rotor.My suggestion is if you had a bike with drum break previously then you should go with drum break only, do not try the disc break as it stops the bike at sudden. and if you could not control the bike you and bike may fall and you could get injured.
  • Braking difference but I had drum alloy version and never had any problems with the brakes it works wherever you want it to
  • Disc alloy is batter

    Bajaj Pulsar N160: Sporty Yet Comfortable 

    Having owned the Bajaj Pulsar N160 for over six months now, I find it to be a noteworthy upgrade from its previous models. Powered by a 160cc engine which churns out 15 PS of power and 14 Nm of torque, it packs a good punch for spirited rides. The mileage is reasonably good too, managing about 45 kmpl in mixed driving conditions.The bike's sporty aesthetics are a head turner and I appreciate the added features like the single channel ABS which enhances safety. The ride quality is smooth thanks to its well tuned suspension that handles bumps and potholes gracefully.

    The N160 is a beast 

    After clocking over 5,000 kilometers on my Bajaj Pulsar N160, it’s time to tell the story. The N160 is a beast, with an engine that delivers 15.7 HP and a torque of 14 Nm making it an absolute joy to rev. Its fuel efficiency is commendable too, standing at around 45 kmpl striking a fine balance between performance and economy.The bike's handling and agility in traffic are top notch all thanks to its lightweight frame and responsive brakes. Riding it feels secure and exhilarating at the same time.

    Smooth and refined engine 

    It can easily give mileage around 35 to 40 kmpl and everything feels good and now it comes with the modern features. It gives good power in the initial and mid range and is very good for both city and the highway and it is a commuting style powerful bike. It is a good enough bike and there is no problem with this bike and the seat of this bike is large and comfortable but the top end performance is not good. The engine refinement is very good without any vibration and is very smooth.

    A Trusty Commuter with Modern Touches 

    As a daily commuter, my decision to buy the Hero Passion Xtec was driven by its reputation for reliability and fuel efficiency. After several months of use, I am happy to report that it lives up to its promises. The digital analog cluster with Bluetooth connectivity and turn by turn navigation support genuinely makes my everyday ride smoother and a bit more fun. The 110cc engine, producing 9 bhp and 9 Nm of torque, is adequate for city traffic though it would not blow your socks off with speed.

    Redefining Commuter Experience 

    The Hero Passion Xtec a new age in commuting bicycles in which innovation and practical everyday life go hand in hand. The 110cc engine provides smooth performance and smart connectivity is integrated via Bluetooth to make it more convenient. The Airport's cool looks, LED headlamp, and digital instrument cluster raise the level of its aesthetic appeal. On the other hand, the seat might be difficult for long rides, while the chassis could feel stiff on bumpy terrain. A prime example of innovation, The Passion Xtec turns an everyday commute into a connected journey to success.
