Hanway B50 - Specifications & Review

Company History

Hanway focuses on approachable small motorcycles—cafe racers, scramblers, and standards that wrap proven single-cylinder engines in clean, retro styling. The recipe resonates in Europe and Latin America where A1/A2 licensing and tight budgets dominate: fuel-injected 125–250 cc powertrains, ABS or combined braking as required, and ergonomics that suit daily use. Hanway’s strength is platform flexibility: the same underlying chassis can wear different tanks and seats, letting distributors tailor models to local tastes while keeping parts common. Early criticisms of budget Chinese bikes—soft fasteners, weak looms—have been addressed through industry-wide improvements and better importer QC. The brand’s success ultimately depends on the regional partner’s aftersales: documentation, spares, and warranty responsiveness. Historically, Hanway helps normalize a global entry segment where style and practicality meet; it gives new riders the feel of a classic without vintage headaches, and does so at prices that undercut legacy marques. In busy cities, a Hanway’s light steering and frugal consumption turn commuting into an easy habit, which is exactly the point.
