Hello from AZ
Hi all,
I am new the the site and new to the Chinese bikes. I got a couple of SSR 70's for my kids and now it is time for the wife and I to shop. She is looking at a 125 of sorts and I just dunno where to start lol. I am looking at pulling the trigger on An Apollo 250, Hawk 250, or the Bashan Storm 250. Can you point me in the right direction? I am about 230lbs and I will be doing more dirt then street for sure. I want to putt with the kids but daddy has to play too ya know? ANy Suggestions would be really helpful. Thanks and it is great to meet ya all! |

The Apollo 250 is a nice bike but it is dirt only. If your wife is ok with dirt only check out this bike. Getting lots of good reviews.

You should be able to pick up the Apollo 125cc for $800.00.
Just keep in mind neither the Apollo 250 or 125 are street legal. / |

Welcome to the forum. I lived in the East Valley for about 15 years, until 2010. I did a lot of mountain biking there.
