Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a minibike best suited to young riders, beginners, or experienced riders using it purely for pit-bike style fun and practice.
PurposeBuilt as a small-capacity 2-stroke minicross machine for backyard tracks, pit lanes, and learning off-road riding fundamentals.
Rider FitIts tiny 44 kg dry weight and low seat height make it extremely easy to manhandle, flick around, and pick up, suiting smaller or lighter riders best.
CharacterA lightweight, high-strung 2-stroke that rewards playful, aggressive throttle inputs and rewards riders who enjoy tossing a bike around tight, technical spaces.
Not Ideal ForNot suitable for highway use, long-distance touring, carrying a passenger, or taller/heavier adult riders seeking a full-size off-road bike.
