For everything you ever needed to know about Minimoto’s

Whether you're looking to buy a MiniMoto, or you already spend all your time on the track, a new website called Minimoto World http://www.neooptic.com/minimoto/minimoto.asp has launched purely dedicated to these fantastic Mini Motorbikes that are taking the country by storm.

Pocketbike motorcycles or Minimotos are true miniature GP racing motorcycles. Mainly Italian crafted, these "mini-monsters" are very accurate in respect to their relationship to full scale GP motorcycles. They boast floating disc brakes front and rear, tubeless racing compound tires, full fairings, hi-tech polished aluminum/magnesium alloy cast perimeter or tubular-frame and swingarm.

Minimoto is a popular racing sport in Japan and Europe. Despite the size, some of these miniature motorcycles can travel up to 65 mph. The bikes are available in 2 sizes, mini and midi. There is no official distinction between the 2, but midis are normally around 10% bigger than minis. This means that midis tend to be a bit more comfortable to ride than minis, but some people find that minis handle better due to their smaller size.

Minimoto manufacturers include Polini, GRC, Pasini, Stamas, ZPF, DM, GEM, Vitorazi/ATM and Blata. All are Italian, except for GEM (British) and Blata (Czechoslovakian).

Minimoto World features a wealth of information on these miniature works of art: mimimoto reviews, FAQs, and news, you can even buy your very own mini bike through a number of recommended retailers. Visit the site today at http://www.neooptic.com/minimoto/minimoto.asp.
