Lots of motorcycle manufacturers are eyeing 2024 to be a big year. Chinese motorcycle brand Zontes is clearly one of them, as in EICMA 2023, the company showcased quite a lot of new models. Apart from its ambitions of entering the premium, high-performance segment, Zontes is also expanding its entry-level offerings.
Cruisers have always been considered ideal beginner-friendly motorcycles thanks to their low seat height, friendly performance, and overall accessibility. Small-engined cruisers like Zontes’ new 125 C take accessibility to a whole new level, making them among the easiest bikes to ride. From a styling perspective, the Zontes 125 C detracts slightly from what we’ve come to associate with the brand. Gone are the aggressive, angular lines in favor of a more retro-inspired approach, similar to what we find in Honda’s Rebel lineup of cruisers. It gets a muscular tank, a round LED headlight, fork gaiters, and a laid-back, low-slung stance.
