Company History
Serpento’s proposition is accessible mobility backed by local spares and financing. Bikes prioritize durability—steel racks, simple singles, and rugged suspension—over outright speed. By focusing on aftersales and realistic usage (cargo, passengers, mixed surfaces), Serpento helps small businesses and families extend their radius affordably. Historically, it’s a case study in distribution as destiny for value motorcycles.
