Default Roketa? and PowerSportsMax?

Wondering if anyone has experience with powersportsmax.com?
The appeal to me is that I can go to their showroom.
Any comments on the linked buggy?
I'm not clear on the maker but possibly Roketa?
The intended use is for my kids who are 8 and 10.
Thanks for any info.

Not a Roketa but it has the Honda CT series cloned engine. The engine will not be a problem for they are very good and long lasting engines. Being a no name brand the frame would be my concern since with the stiff suspension if frame is made with recycled steel tube they have a tendency to be brittle and break when driven on the rough trails.

Good info, thanks. Since posting the question I've bought and old Yerf Dog 3200 and dropped a Predator 212 into it. Based on this I'm guessing that any 2 seater with less than a 200cc engine will be underpowered. Any comments?
Thanks

Cool

No . Your 212cc Predator is a 6.5 H.P. Industrial / Lawnmower / Snow blower type .
The 150 cc gy6 found in the 150 Buggys are Motorcycle / ATV type and makes 8-9 H.P.
Just picture all the 125 cc , 175 cc Motorcycles' , and the many 200cc Three Wheelers' . Whole different breed than horizontal shaft Industrial engines .

Hey I purchased a buggy from powersportsmax this year. I was super worried when making the purchase. So I gave my boss cash n he put it in his credit card. Since it had protection lol. But all was well and shipping was fast to Illinois. I didn't however receive the "free gifts".
