Pros and cons
Advantages
Lightweight
At 76.0 kg dry, it should be easy to push around and park.
Low seat
The 740 mm seat height can make foot placement easier when stopped.
Things to consider
Limited power
The 49.0 cm³ single makes 4 hp, leaving little power in reserve for brisk acceleration.
Drum brakes front and rear
Expanding brakes at both wheels provide less stopping power under hard use than disc brakes.
