Overall, the Tricity is an interesting, recommendable alternative to a 125cc scooter. The double front suspension makes it more comfortable, more stable and safer. It is independently damped, but brakes together. The worse the (road) conditions, the more the advantages of this modern concept outweigh the disadvantages. Only a little more power could have been given to the Dreilalla, then it would have earned the rating Very Good.
