Scooters have many inherent advantages for traditional cross-cycling, such as large storage space, easy to get started, comfortable riding, etc., and in the scooter family, medium and large pedals can be described as long-lasting, so many manufacturers will be involved in this field, and Sycolong is no exception. However, unlike other manufacturers, SECRON has only deeply cultivated the RT3 car for so many years, studied it in depth, eaten it thoroughly, and launched many different configurations to meet the needs of various types of consumers.

Not long ago, Sectron finally launched its second medium and large scooter - Sectron RT2. If the RT3 is a long-distance artifact that focuses on comfortable riding and 500 kilometers of refueling at a time, then the RT2 gives those who do not have the opportunity and time to go out for a long time to ride for a long time and want to feel the fun of medium-sized pedal riding.

This should be the reason for the launch of the RT2 by the RT3 family of Sectron, which has been operating for so many years, after all, every new car on the market is a more risky behavior, there is no full certainty, I believe that Sectron will not easily make such a decision.

So today, we will explore what is the excellence of the Sycolong RT2, which can stand out among many competitors of the same type.

I believe that many people see RT2 for the first time, will think that it is RT3 hulling products, in fact, the wheelbase of RT3 is 1545mm, and the wheelbase of RT2 is 1400mm, the two cars in addition to sharing the powertrain and some parts, there is not much relationship, the frame and shock absorption have to be redesigned and tuned, it should be said that RT2 is a new product created by Sycolong according to RT3's many years of experience.

Official RT2 is defined as the next generation of urban sports pedals, emphasizing the next generation and sports these two keywords, in terms of the overall appearance, RT2 design style is indeed very advanced, it did not choose to follow the footsteps of the most fashionable ADV pedals, but another way, the ADV and sports organic combination.

The front of the car's "duckbill" aerodynamic layout borrows some elements of the ADV pedal to provide some downforce, but the swooping front shape and the ferocious eagle-eyed 4-lens LED headlights are "warning" you of its movement genes, which is not a good car, as if it will be irritable at any time.

Although the whole vehicle adopts a very tough line design, relying on a large number of aerodynamic simulation analysis, after continuous repeated testing, in order to achieve the modeling effect of minimizing the wind resistance of the vehicle, that is, the coexistence of appearance and strength.

From the rear point of view, you will see through the design sense of RT2 at a glance, the design style of the double taillights is not available in many vehicles of the same type, perhaps this kind of automotive grade L-type split LED taillight design is difficult to control, and the horizontal distribution of the double tail lights is highly recognizable, which can improve driving safety to a certain extent.

In addition, the RT2 also uses a combat-style barrel muffler, the appearance is thick, and the tough style of the front of the car complements each other, achieving a balanced effect between the front and back, while also providing a mellow sound, it is worth noting that the RT2 muffler uses 409 stainless steel material, rust-proof and corrosion-resistant.

After talking about the next generation of design, it is time to see if the car meets the officially declared sporty attributes.

First of all, it can be clear that the wheelbase of 1400mm will have a certain degree of positive impact on the sports performance of the whole vehicle, because the RT2 benefits from the design of the short wheelbase, its turning radius reaches 2.25 meters, the control is very flexible, and the RT2 is comfortable in the scene of urban commuting. In addition, with a forward extension angle of 27 degrees and a forward extension of 102mm, the sporty properties of the whole vehicle are more sharp.

In addition, the RT2 also adopts the high-strength lightweight wheels that have always been used in the sports pedal, due to the use of thin spoke design, so that the wheels have a lighter weight at the same strength, which has a very significant effect on reducing the weight of the spring, and the lighter under-spring mass will bring clearer road feedback and enhance the sense of movement of the whole vehicle. For urban cycling, a good sense of road is really good, and anyone who has commuted through a small displacement model knows it.

Moreover, the wheel design of the front 14 inches and the rear 13 inches is also in line with the ultimate sports style, coupled with the full force of the semi-hot melt vacuum sports tire, so that the RT2 can achieve the best grip in temperatures above 30 degrees.

The power delivered to the tires was provided by a 250cc single-cylinder water-cooled four-valve engine jointly developed by Sectron and Daelim, South Korea, which has been reported to have reached 100,000 units worldwide, and there is no doubt about its reliability. And on the RT2, the engine has undergone a new motion tuning, optimized the gas distribution mechanism, the maximum power is 17kw/ 7500 rpm, the maximum torque is 22.5 nm / 6500 rpm, and the acceleration time of 0-50 km / h reaches 3.4 seconds.

In order to "restrain" the RT2's extremely strong acceleration ability, Sectron is equipped with a front 270mm, rear 220mm dual disc brake structure, supplemented by dual-channel ABS, in addition to the diameter of 35mm pre-motion shock absorption and 5-stage adjustable rear shock absorption provide excellent support, adding 10% to the RT2's sporting properties.

In addition, the main frame adopts a high-strength frame braided frame made of Q235 high-quality carbon steel, and is welded by a 5-axis robot, which avoids the unsightly welding caused by manual welding, as well as the shortcomings of stress concentration, which greatly improves the yield rate of the frame.

The RT2 has a seat height of 770mm, which meets the needs of most people, although it does not look very high, but the scooter seat is usually relatively wide, so the seat height must be controlled within a reasonable range. However, the front of the RT2 saddle adopts a sloped narrowing design, which has been measured to alleviate the problem of seat height to a certain extent.

In the process of testing RT2, some humanized performance is also particularly obvious, keyless start is very convenient, get on the car and leave, no longer need to take out the key, and RT2 is also very intimate to retain the mechanical key, providing double protection.

In addition, the RT2 also uses the fifth generation of high-brightness full-color LCD instrument, even in the strong sunlight at noon, but also has excellent reading resolution, thanks to the high contrast design of this instrument, everything from the driver's point of view to design the product.

In terms of power performance, RT2 and RT3 can be said to be completely different cars, if RT3 gives people the feeling of being calm and heavy, then RT2 gives people the feeling of being light and agile, and the throttle will go out to the end. And after actual measurement, the cruising range of RT2 is more than 400 kilometers, which includes national highways, high-speed and congested urban roads, which can have such a cruising performance, presumably inseparable from the 12.6-liter fuel tank capacity, such a mileage performance, enough to meet a variety of long-distance use needs.

Finally, to make a summary, through the actual test of the Seclon RT2, we can see that on this RT2, the official interpretation of the two keywords of the next generation and sports is very good, without any exaggerated components, which can be said to be a very pertinent and pragmatic evaluation. From the market point of view, the guidance price of 20800 yuan RT2 is bound to cause a lot of shock to the entire domestic medium and large scooter field, this price for consumers who want to buy a 250cc scooter, may be able to attract them to see the real car, test drive, I believe that the excellent performance of RT2 can impress them.
