If there is one common memory every Indian kid gets to cherish and grow up with, it is the one where we spend days trying to learn how to ride a bicycle with our parents steadying us throughout the journey. It symbolized growth, independence when we can cycle without any support and a good laugh with our parents who become busy with time.

This is why choosing a bicycle that becomes a part of any Indian household for years, takes credit for a child’s fitness and acts as a groundwork for strength, is an extremely important task.

Here are the top ten brands for Indian bicycles to help you make the choice:

1) Hero
