It is a great initiative as it provides the buyers with the convenience of testing out the tyres according to their requirements without really having to worry about the money spent on the same.
Apollo is planning to increase its market share in the motorcycle tyres segment, this initiative will assist them with the same and go well with their expansion plan.
