I have conversed at length with the people from Bintelli. The common practice for distributors who want a quality scooter is to buy from Znen, as Wolf does. Justin at Bintelli used to do just that. BUT. Znen is the largest manufacturer of scooters in China and can be lackadaisical at times. Justin switched to another manufacturer and my intuition tells me that in pursuit of better quality he found a company that would listen. I had the opportunity to visit a dealer selling Bintelli and put my hands all over the scooters. The body panels were substantial, the metal work was quite good and all exposed connections and clamps looked solid.

Having said that, either company, Wolf or Bintelli, is a good choice. They only sell through dealers and never drop ship. Yes, the extra money is worth it. Quality control at the source prevents a ton of niggling problems later and both companies strive for that.
