by Simon Ananda Raj July 24, 2025 1 min read

Cosmic is one of the very few Indian brands which provide both value for money and Performance focused bicycles. The 3 series is their MTB range which is aimed at being both functional and affordable. We got the opportunity to test tide the Cosmic 3 29er and here is what we thought.Weight: 17kgsUsage: Fitness/Trail

The Cosmic 3 29 is a Hardtail MTB with smooth shifting gears and a useful front suspension with lock-out to breeze through rough roads and moderate trails.

: The Cosmic 3 29 is a Hardtail MTB. This frame is built fully using Alloy. This frame comes with a slanting top tube which made it easy to get on and off the Bicycle and also safer for the rider on bumpy rides with the extra standover clearance. The frame geometry ensured the rider was upright with relaxed shoulder and wrist positions for a pain free ride.Being a Hardtail the 3 29 comes with a stock front suspension fork with an 8mm travel and a mechanical lock-out which helps in better acceleration in flatter surfaces

The Hardtail Alloy frame comes in a 19 inch frame size
: Cosmic have started using Microshift components on some of their Bicycle models. Microshift as a brand is on par with Shimano in terms of performance and quality. The 3 29 comes equipped with a 9-Speed Microshift Marvo at the rear along with Microshift Marvo 3-Speed at the front. The Microshift drivetrain on this MTB was both quick and smooth in shifting with no lag experienced during the test ride. The 27-Speed gearing system is controlled by Microshift's TS38 trigger shifters.

This Bicycle comes with a Microshift Marvo 27-Speed drivetrain and Microshift TS38 shifters
: This Bicycle which I test rode came in a full Teal primary colour with Yellow, Grey and White as the secondary colours for the graphics and text. The graphics were bold with contrasting colours which made the Bicycle look flashy. The matte finish paint job was smooth and the tube welds were perfectly molded.

The Cosmic 3 29 comes in 3 different colour variants
: The stopping power on this 29er Hardtail MTB from Cosmic is taken care of by a pair of Tongli branded Mechanical Disc brakes. These brakes were of good quality with rotors and the disc plates which were powerful in stopping amidst traffic and even on flat muddy surfaces.This MTB handlebar with a minimal raise was wide and gave optimum control for the rider when riding through fast paced flat trails and also when maneuvering through sharp turns.

: The 3 Cosmic Alloy MTB comes with Compass Jumping Hare 29” x 2.25” MTB tires. These tires have bulky treads and a uniform tread pattern which provided great traction on trails and flat muddy surfaces. This tires were ideal for faster rolling resistance as well as being balanced on flat trails.The stock Saddle from Cosmic wasn’t the most ergonomic in design but had enough cushioning for a soreness free ride.

: This alloy hardtail MTB was comfortable to ride thanks to its frame geometry and the wide handlebar. The Mechanical Disc brakes and 8mm front suspension with lock-out made it easy to ride and stop on muddy trails and wet urban roads. The 29” Compass tires were heavily treaded and fast rolling as well. The 27-Speed Microshift drivetrain was smooth in shifting and definitely on par with Shimano. Priced at Rs.27,(as on 18th October 222) the Cosmic 3 29 is an ideal choice for anyone looking to buy an MTB for both trails and riding on rough urban roads.Prices and Specifications/Components are subject to change by the brand, without due notice.
