Overview

Introducing the 2016 Ice Bear Monkey Blade, a charming minibike-cross designed for both enthusiasts and casual riders looking to embrace the thrill of two wheels. This pint-sized powerhouse is perfect for navigating tight urban spaces or hitting the trails, appealing to a wide range of riders from beginners to seasoned veterans. With its vibrant styling reminiscent of classic bikes, the Monkey Blade stands out in the market as a fun, accessible option for those seeking an agile and exciting ride without the commitment of larger motorcycles. At the heart of the Monkey Blade lies a lively 107cc single-cylinder, four-stroke engine, delivering a respectable 8.05 horsepower at 8,500 RPM and 7.00 Nm of torque at 6,500 RPM. This dynamic little engine propels the bike to a top speed of 80 km/h (49.7 mph), making it an ideal companion for short commutes or spirited jaunts through the countryside. The air-cooled engine, paired with a carburettor fuel system and CDI ignition, ensures consistent performance while remaining easy to maintain. Riders will appreciate the engaging power delivery and nimble handling, thanks to the lightweight design at just 60.8 kg (134 pounds), providing an exhilarating experience whether you’re zipping around town or tackling off-road trails. The Monkey Blade is equipped with a range of features that enhance both comfort and functionality. The bike boasts an electric and kick starter for reliability and ease of use, while the telescopic front fork and dual rear shocks offer a smooth and stable ride on various terrains. With drum brakes at both the front and rear, riders can expect dependable stopping power, though it’s worth noting that this setup may not be as responsive as disc brakes found on larger models. The bike's compact dimensions (1,308 mm in length and 859 mm in height) and a seat height of 678 mm make it accessible for riders of all sizes, ensuring that everyone can enjoy the thrill of the ride. **

Pros

  • Lightweight and Maneuverable: Weighing in at just 60.8 kg, it’s easy to handle, making it perfect for both new riders and those looking for a fun, agile ride.
  • Versatile Performance: The 107cc engine provides enough power for spirited rides, whether on the road or the trails, without being overwhelming.
  • Accessible Design: With a low seat height and compact dimensions, the Monkey Blade is user-friendly for riders of all experience levels.

Cons

  • Drum Brakes: The expanding drum brake system may not provide the same level of stopping power or responsiveness as modern disc brakes.
  • Limited Top Speed: With a maximum speed of 80 km/h, the Monkey Blade may not be suitable for highway riding or long-distance commutes.
  • Basic Suspension Setup: While the suspension provides a comfortable ride, it may not absorb bumps as effectively as advanced suspension systems found on higher-end models.
