We are ecstatic that youth icon Arjun Kapoor is now associated with us and will represent our brand and its ethos in the public and media.”

Arjun Kapoor added, "I am extremely proud of this association with the world's largest cycle brand. Hero Cycles has shown the world that Indian made products can compete with the best in the world. I am happy to be face of the brand because cycling resonates within me like millions of Indians. Hero Cycles has been part of my life since my childhood just like so many other children in India.”
