If your looking for a pee wee 50 then look at an older model second hand jap like a PW50 coz they are better than the china 50s. I have even seen some LEM 50s about that price

1) Change/check the brake fluid.
2) Make sure all the nuts and bolts are tightened.
3) Check over all the connections to the back brakes.
