Italjet Jack 150 - Specifications & Review

Company History

Founded by racer and designer Leopoldo Tartarini, Italjet has long treated scooters as canvases for Italian ingenuity. The 1990s Dragster became an icon: a skeletal trellis frame, hub-steering front end, and a stance that looked like motion even at rest. Beyond showmanship, Italjet products often handled well—rigid chassis, real brakes, and geometry that rewarded aggressive urban riding. Period minibikes and pocket racers showcased playful engineering and helped seed youth motorsport scenes. After ups and downs, Italjet revived the Dragster in the 2020s with modern EFI, ABS, and emissions compliance, proving the concept’s longevity. The brand sits where industrial design meets daily utility: luggage solutions, thoughtful ergonomics, and materials that survive city life. Historically, Italjet argues that small can be special; it rejects the idea that scooters must be anonymous appliances. Owners buy into a design language—a bit of Bologna theatre—that still works as transport. Few marques have so successfully made a 125 feel like an event without compromising ride quality.
