Company History
Tank Sports helped introduce low-cost Asian scooters to U.S. buyers in the 2000s. Results varied by dealer quality, but where PDI and spares support existed, owners enjoyed cheap, simple transport. The episode underscored a lesson: distribution and aftersales can define a budget brand’s reputation more than the underlying castings. Tank’s legacy is the normalization of value scooters in suburban commutes.
