Company History
Under the ShineTime label, exporters have offered straightforward 50–250 cc scooters and commuters aimed at riders who need inexpensive, serviceable transport. The value proposition is simple hardware—air-cooled singles, CVTs or five-speed boxes, steel frames—that can be maintained by neighborhood mechanics with common tools. Over the last decade, QC has improved in step with the broader Chinese industry: better loom sealing, disc brakes that hold adjustment, and EFI on emissions-regulated variants. Importers generally localize racks, lighting, and sprocket ratios to suit cargo use and rougher roads. While ShineTime will not win spec-sheet contests, it earns its keep by starting in the rain, surviving tip-overs, and keeping parts like variator belts and pads on the shelf. Historically, ShineTime represents the quiet backbone of urban mobility across Africa, Asia, and Latin America: affordable, fixable machines that turn long walks into short, controllable rides for students, shopkeepers, and delivery workers.
