Super pocket bikes - larger or more powerful versions of pocket bikes

Interestingly, there is a fair amount of confusion about exactly what a 'super pocket bike' is. It depends who you ask.

The term super pocket bike is used on Ebay a lot to describe pocket bikes that may - or may not! - actually be something that could be described as a 'super' version.

So, knowing there is no precise definition of a super pocket bike, how do you know what to look for? Well, the term 'super' does suggest that there would be something special about the pocket bike in addition to what you would expect from a standard version. Polini, the most well known Italian manufacturer, produce three types of engine, the best of which is their 'super' engine which is water cooled and very powerful; these most certainly would be termed super pocket bikes due to their exceptional performance.

Another way of describing a super pocket bike (also known as midbikes or superbikes) is in terms of their size and features. Some say that super pocket bikes are significantly larger than standard pocket bikes. They usually feature 'big bike' extras such as headlights and brake lights, a speedo, turn signals, larger fuel capacity, key ignition, horn, front and rear shock absorbers and electric starter. So, less 'cute' than the smaller pocket bikes, but equally wicked in the fun deparment!

So you need to decide what 'super' means for you in terms of the pocket bike you want. Is it a performance version of a standard pocket bike you want, or a larger pocket bike with many more luxury features than found on similar models? Only you can decide!
