Factory Bike has positioned this motorcycle as an ideal choice for younger riders or those new to the sport, promising a reliable and responsive machine that caters to a variety of riding experiences. At the heart of the Chrono SM 50 lies a spirited 49.70cc single-cylinder, two-stroke engine, delivering an impressive power-to-weight ratio that enhances its nimbleness.

Its hardened steel CrMo frame not only contributes to the bike's lightweight nature but also ensures durability and stability under various riding conditions. The PAIOLI hydraulic front suspension and monoshock rear suspension work in harmony to absorb bumps and enhance control, providing a smooth ride whether you're navigating city streets or tackling dirt paths. Safety is prioritized with a robust braking system, featuring a 320 mm front disc and a 200 mm rear disc, delivering exceptional stopping power. The bike's kickstarter adds a nostalgic touch, appealing to those who appreciate the classic feel of motorcycling. With a sleek black finish, the Chrono SM 50 also stands out visually, embodying the daring spirit of the super motard genre. **
