Overview
Introducing the 2022 Cleveland Ace 250, a motorcycle that effortlessly embodies the spirit of all-round versatility. Positioned within the burgeoning entry-level segment, this bike caters to new riders and seasoned enthusiasts alike, combining an approachable design with robust performance. Crafted by Cleveland Cycle Werks, known for their dedication to style and performance, the Ace 250 stands out with a timeless aesthetic and modern engineering. With its compact dimensions and lightweight structure, it promises agility in urban environments while retaining the comfort and capability for longer rides. At the heart of the Ace 250 is a sprightly 249cc engine that delivers a commendable 16.8 horsepower at 8,500 RPM and a torque of 16 Nm at 6,000 RPM. This air-cooled, oil-cooled powerplant is paired with a smooth 6-speed transmission, allowing for seamless gear transitions that enhance the riding experience. The engine's compression ratio of 9.3:1 and its compact bore and stroke dimensions contribute to a surprisingly responsive throttle, making it easy to navigate through city traffic or tackle winding country roads. The bike's lightweight frame, tipping the scales at just 130 kg (286.6 pounds), ensures that riders feel confident and in control, whether they are maneuvering in tight spaces or enjoying a leisurely cruise. The Ace 250 is equipped with a host of key features designed to elevate the riding experience. The tubular backbone frame not only adds to the bike's aesthetic appeal but also provides a solid foundation for the inverted front forks and twin coil-over oil damped shocks at the rear. Safety is paramount, with ABS-equipped single disc brakes at both the front (300 mm) and rear (220 mm) ensuring reliable stopping power. Riders will also appreciate the choice of colors—classic black, vibrant red, or cool blue—allowing for personal expression. With both electric and kick start options, the Ace 250 caters to a range of rider preferences, ensuring that starting the engine is as effortless as the ride itself. **
