Pros

  • Lightweight and Agile: Weighing in at just 98 kg, the DT125Sport is easy to handle, making it ideal for both new riders and those who crave an agile machine.
  • Attractive Design: The striking color options combined with sporty aesthetics ensure that you’ll stand out on the road.

Cons

  • Limited Power Output: While great for city commuting, the 12 HP may feel restrictive for those seeking higher performance on highways.
  • Drum Brakes: The expanding drum brakes, while adequate for everyday use, may not offer the same stopping power or responsiveness as disc brakes found on more advanced models.
