Written on: 18/07/2012

I have owned a shineray XY 125- 14 IIE road bike for five years and it has had a new battery and some new bulbs. It has been good quality for the price, when buying a Chinese bike it is important to get one that has been put together by a reliable mechanic and importantly had its electrics tested and installed by someone who knows what they are doing. From what I have read it is also best going for the more expensive Chinese bikes. Mine is mainly alloy and plastics and has a Honda engine.

With This Model.
Good Points:
1 The engine (better acceleration than other 125s I have been on and uses very little fuel) 2 The riding position (It is ok to make long journeys) 3 The Price 4 The reliability has exceeded my expectations.

Bad Points.
1 The Wheels are quite narrow 2 The Part of the exhaust that isn't ally has started to rust 3 The headlights are not very bright 4 taking the plastic panels off to assess the battery etc for maintenance is fiddly.
