Best for
A budget commuter styled as a sport bike, built for affordable everyday urban transport and short paved trips rather than genuine performance.
Built for
A humble, no-frills African-market 175 single: cheap, reliable-minded and easy-going. Sporty looks hide gentle carbureted, air-cooled performance.
Not ideal for
Not for speed seekers, track riders, long-distance tourers, or anyone wanting real off-road ability; the modest 12hp engine tops out near 56mph.

Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
