A sturdy aluminum double extruded beam frame provides both strength and lightweight characteristics, while the Marzocchi upside-down telescopic front forks and a progressive rear suspension with adjustable spring preload ensure that the bike can tackle any road condition with ease. The braking system, featuring a 320 mm front disc and a 230 mm rear disc, offers impressive stopping power, giving riders confidence in their ability to handle high speeds and sharp turns. With a seat height of 760 mm, the Mito is accessible for riders of various sizes, making it an ideal choice for those looking to experience the thrill of sport riding. **

Pros

  • Exceptional Power-to-Weight Ratio: With its light frame and powerful engine, the Mito 125 offers exhilarating acceleration and nimble handling.
