Pros and cons

Advantages

  • Light dry weight

    At 140.0 kg dry, it should be easier to push and manage at low speeds.

  • Useful ground clearance

    The 185 mm clearance leaves room for uneven roads and ruts.

Things to consider

  • Rear drum brake

    The expanding rear brake is a drum-style setup, which generally offers less consistent braking feel than a disc, especially when used hard.

  • Air cooling

    Air cooling relies on airflow rather than a liquid-cooling system, so heat is less actively managed during slow, stop-and-go riding.
