Its mono-coil spring offers suspension for rear part, while hydraulic telescopic forks offer suspension for front part. Vehicle’s drum brakes seem effective enough compared to its weight. But considerable number if users are not happy about its turning stability. Perhaps, due to small wheel radius units that fail to establish firm grip on the road.

Pep +is fitted with rear-view mirrors that look cute, while sleek headlamp and front fender’s edgy style gives premium feel to this scooter. The vehicle’s odomer, gauge and easy to read speedometer helps girls to keep track about their speed.
