Avanti is an International Bicycle brand originating from New Zealand. Avanti started their journey way back in 1985 and have grown to become an established and performance focused Bicycle brand with Road Bikes, Hybrids, MTBs and Triathlon Bicycles as well. Avanti have recently forayed into the Indian market and we got the opportunity to test ride the Avanti Giro F1 and here is what we thought.
Weight: 11.9kgs
Category: Fitness/Commuting
The Avanti Giro F1 is a lightweight, fast and comfortable to ride hybrid bicycle with a superior frame and performance focused components.
The Avanti Giro F1 is built on a full Alloy frame. This frame is well designed, sturdy and lightweight. The frame geometry on the Giro F1 is the perfect combination of comfort and aggressiveness for a Hybrid. You will find yourself forward bent to an extent, which ensures that you are in an ideal position for balanced riding. The frame has a combination of circular and tapered tube profiles across the frame sections. This results in optimizing strength at the key joints, while minimizing weight where larger tubing is not required. The Alloy rigid fork is bladed and strong enough to handle bad roads.

The Avanti Giro F1 is an aesthetic looking Hybrid Cycle. The frame design and eye catchy tube profiles, along with smooth welds, translates to the Giro F1 being an aesthetic Hybrid. The Bicycle which I test rode came in a full Black primary colour and Metallic Blue as the secondary colour for graphics and text. The matte finish paint job was top notch in quality.
The Avanti Giro F1 comes in 2 colour variants, Black/Blue and Silver/Black
The 21-Speed drivetrain on the Avanti Giro F1 is a combination of a 3-speed Shimano Tourney as the front derailleur, and a 7-speed Shimano Altus as the rear derailleur. Shifting was good across gears, with hardly any lags felt during the test ride. This gear combination is ideal and expected at this price point. The drivetrain is controlled by Shimano EF500 shifters, which were positioned well and easy to use.

The Avanti Giro F1 comes with Alloy V- brakes. These brakes were solid in stopping power and felt balanced to use even when jamming them. The levers were also lengthy and had an easy spring action which made it possible to operate using just 2 or 3 fingers.
The Alloy handlebar with a slight raise was perfect in length for a comfortable riding posture.

The Avanti Giro F1 rolls on a pair of 700x35c stock tires that are fixed on to Double walled Alloy rims. The treading and size of the tires were ideal for city commuting and long rides. The rolling resistance was fast and the tread pattern provided enough traction on wet roads as well.
The stock saddle has an ergonomic shape and build to it but it could have more cushioning for better comfort.

This is a Hybrid Bicycle with a comfortable Alloy frame which is easy to accelerate and to ride on inclines. The aesthetic design with a matte finish paint job made the Bicycle look premium. The ride quality was enhanced by an impressive Shimano Tourney/Altus 21-Speed drivetrain, internal cable routing and also the Alloy V-brakes. Priced at Rs.39,990(as on 19th April 2022), the Avanti Giro F1 is an ideal choice for anyone looking to by a Bicycle for fitness, long distance rides and daily commutes.
