Design and Features
The TVS Ronin is indeed a more youth-oriented model that comes dressed in striking dual-tone livery and features a contemporary scrambler-like design. Aesthetically, it gets a round LED headlamp upfront with an integrated T-shaped LED DRL, a tear dropped shaped fuel tank, a single-piece seat, a raised & wide handlebar (good for long rides), blacked-out powertrain & exhaust pipe, and 17-inch wheels wrapped in blocked-pattern rubbers.
The Ronin also features a USB charger and a single-pod instrument console that further gets smartphone connectivity support, notification alert, tour mode, ride mode, voice & ride assist, and turn-by-turn navigation.
Taking care of the braking and handling are disc brakes at both ends with a single/dual-channel Antilock Braking System. The suspension duty is taken up by a 41mm Showa USD fork and preload-adjustable rear mono-shock. The bike tips the scales at 160kg.
