CFMoto launched its ZEEHO electric sub-brand earlier this year with a concept scooter - the Cyber that promised 125 cc performance and impressive range . Now the production version has been approved for sale in China and its styling revealed in detailed patent documents . The Chinese type approval means key dimensions and performance details have been confirmed . Power is listed at 5kW , which is just 6.7 hp , but it ' s worth pointing out that ' s a ' continuous ' rating reflecting what the motor can sustain for unlimited periods without overheating . During its launch earlier this year , CFMoto claimed a peak of 10kW ( 13.4 hp ) for the concept version , and it ' s likely the production model will achieve similar |
performance for short periods , putting it close to the 11kW limit on 125 cc bikes . The officially rated top speed of 64 mph certainly suggests that ' s the case and is close to the 68 mph that CFMoto originally cited for the concept version of the Cyber . The numbers mean the Cyber should be capable even at A-road speeds , even though it is by no means a ' big ' scooter . At 1,380 mm , the wheelbase is the same as a Vespa GTS125 , and the wheels are small 12 inch units with 100 / 80 front and 120 / 70 rear tyres . Compared to the concept version , the changes include a more sensible seat unit , with space for a passenger , replacing the original show bike ' s single-seat design . The floor has also been made flat , where the concept |
featured a significant hump between the rider ' s feet . Another subtle but welcome change is the switch from chain drive to a quieter , less maintenance-intensive belt for the final version of the bike . Brembo brakes are retained for the production model , although surprisingly the Chinese market version isn ' t certified as having ABS . That might change as and when the bike reaches Europe . Although the certification documents don ' t reveal details like range , CFMoto claimed the original concept version was good for 80 miles on a charge and that the battery could be topped up to 80 % in half an hour on a fast charger . The documents do confirm the bike ' s weight , putting it at a surprisingly light |
133 kg . With type approval gained in China already , and patents for the styling published worldwide , the official launch of the production Cyber can ' t be far off . |
