2007 Chinabike quality vs. 2024 Chinabike quality
I bought a Roketa 185 back in about 2007 for $900. It did what I needed it to do but the material quality really put me off. The plastics were particularly bad. Very stiff and brittle. But at $900 you get what you pay for. Never thought I would buy another China bike, but I am considering a Lifan KPX 250. By all accounts it would appear that material quality as a whole has improved but I can only see videos. How do the plastics compare to Japanese dual sports? I can get a brand new Honda XR 150 for the same price. I'm a bit torn as to what to get.
