Friday bike update, update, update............

Back in January I featured the Honley 250 Venturer.
This turned out to be the Zongshen RX3 rebadged by the British importer. It is also sold in Belarus badged as M1NSK, and now in the USA as the CSC Cyclone!
Looks like the importer in each country gets to stick there own badges on it!
If anyone out there owns one, or has even ridden one, please let us know what it's like.

  1. Hey there. Been lurking and thought I'd comment.

    The CSC Cyclone has had a lot of publicity here in the USA, but I haven't had the chance to see one in person yet. Tire size is what we really find odd. Why didn't they go with 19 in the front and 17 in the rear. They definitely fill a niche market in cc size.

    1. Interestingly, the M1NSK version has a 17" rear wheel. Maybe these will be fitted for Europe and the US where it is a more common size. Like everything about this bike, it'll be 'wait and see'.
