On the user front, city riders and early adopters commend its low cost of operation, excellent ride quality, and lightweight.

Expert commentary on performance and design

Performance Commentary

  • Responsive throttle action — applauded for its gentle takeoff, particularly for new or older riders

Design Commentary (Expert Insight)

  • Practical design with cosmetic updates — maintains the utilitarian, commuter-oriented shape.
  • Enhanced finish compared to previous Gracy versions — slimmer panels, tighter gap between panels, and improved finish
  • Satisfactory ergonomics — roomy footboard, comfortable saddle, and telescopic suspension provide comfort for urban riding.
  • Conservative design — not flashy; rather more functional than sporty or premium in appearance
  • Light frame — easy to maneuver around tight corners or for parking, particularly convenient for a female or elderly driver
