The front disc brake will significantly enhance stopping power and rider control during daily city commutes. With this launch, the Passion+ Disc joins the Splendor XTEC Disc in a select group: the only two 100cc Hero motorcycles offering a front disc brake. This gives the brand a major advantage over direct segment rivals from Honda and Bajaj, which still miss out on this crucial safety feature.
