It's time for a Price Drop! You can buy these cycles from Decathlon's stores in Kolkata at Salt Lake, Shakespeare Sarani, Newtown, Garia, or online from Decathlon's website/app or Park Street Connect store.
Decathlon has permanently dropped the prices of more products in February, 2024 to help you play more as you spend less. There are many ways by which Decathlon is able to drop the prices of products. One of the various ways Decathlon is able to drop prices is by designing mass-market products in a more optimum manner.
I got to see how some of Decathlon's cycles are manufactured at a bikes factory in Ludhiana and shoot the above photo of the Riverside 500 Hybrid Cycle. One of the guiding principles in Decathlon's local manufacturing is that the process is paramount. Decathlon team works closely in the day to day decision making, right from weighing, measuring and counting the incoming components to all the processes that go into making the final product. This enables Decathlon to keep optimizing and finding ways to reduce prices so you can pay less and play more.

The Triban RC100 Road Bike has a new price of Rs 24,999, down from Rs 29,999. This is one of Decathlon's entry level road bikes, a category I am a bit biased towards as I myself ride the Triban Gravel 120,. Having ridden my way up from a BMX followed by a Hybrid Bike, it's hard for me to prefer anything other than my road/gravel bike.
These Triban bikes like to move. The aerodynamic nature of these road bikes make it easier to accelerate and keep a comparatively faster pace going. As it has 700x32c tyres, you get a comfortable ride with the tyres helping to absorb bumps and gravel.
The Triban RC100 Road Bike comes with a single chainring drivetrain with 1x7 gears. It weighs 11.3 kg in size M without pedals.
