I bought caliber croma 8-9 months ago. I selected this dispite of having victor, freedom, pulsar in options. I felt KB caliber croma the best in this range with disk brakes, power, style and fuel efficiency.
This is why I made this selection. Victor comes in almost same price(very less diff.) without disk brakes, but lesser power(109cc), and almost same milleage. Freedom carries the same reason. Bajaj Pulsar is good on its own but meant for heavier pockets. Bec of its lesser milleage and high cost. Power is obviously no problem for Pulsar.
Caliber Croma comes with a wonderful pickup and top speed of about 100Kmph compared to that of victor 'n' who are freedom below 90kmph. I don't even feel the bumpers with its great shock absorbers. Mine gives a milleage of about 65kmpl in city. Comfort is good enough for a perfect ride. Its international beautiful styling attracts people wherever it goes. I observed it myself with my silver shining bike. Its a remake of unshakable caliber but its far beyond that with its new light, disk brakes etc. Hoodibaba!(115) is a remake of croma but there isn't mush diff. except bhp and disk brake(both compensate together). Also both have same displacement(111.6cc). Though Victor, freedom etc. claims about 8.1 bhp but we forget to see at how much rpm(ie.8500). Caliber croma offers 7.7bhp @ 7000rpm. Using unitary method calculate it yourself abt which ones greater. Now, after such difference why should one go for victor, freedom, splendor(97cc) etc. with caliber croma around.
I recomend this bike bec. of its attractive style, power, braking and fuel efficiency.
