1. If you have any better ideas, please let me know in the comments, I will keep this list updated based on your suggestions, and my own experiments
2. Choices below are linked directly to online stores that I could find in India, and prices are for the cheapest variant, irrespective of stock availability
3. These are just suggestions based on my preferences, feel free to mix and match, or ignore it entirely
4. To reduce the budget to < 25,000, you could pick a helmet from Shiro/SMK/Axor etc., but I have no experience with any of these brands so they are not in this list

I like the SPG Centaurs for everyday riding and they fit like a second skin
For hot climate like ours I have a SPG Helios jacket and it’s really well vented
For helmet saw your review long time back, bought, a SOL Metalman and I don’t like any other helmets after that
SPG has some good products, but I don’t like their warranty policies.
So the bikeratti jeans look like a good option.. I have a size 36 in Levi’s Jeans..
as I don’t have any vendor where I stay to do a fit.. would the size 36 of these jeans fit the same, in your opinion..
do tell please
Yes it should fit pretty alright. If you go to their site and click on the Size Guide thingy, they have some very specific dimension data to get you a good fit as well. That should help make sure it’ll work out. https://www.bikeratti.com/info/riding-denim-steam
Thanks ! That will do.. will look it up bro
How about the TBG Knight jacket around the 10k budget?
It’s a good option, especially from protection point of view, but I didn’t include it because it’s not very well ventilated in my experience, combine that with the black color and it could get uncomfortable in summer.
