Picco Monza & Blast .21 engines
Picco from Italy have introduced their new Monza .21 Team on-road and Blast .21 Team off-road engines. Starting with the on-road engine, 3.5cc power plant features a newly designed crankcase that improves internal gas flow and produces a higher performance over the whole RPM range. The 14mm crankshaft utilises a silicone insert and it is DLC-coated in order to prevent wear of the pin as well as oxidation. The shaft rests in a high-quality rear ceramic Swiss-made bearing. The 7-port cylinder and piston is made using special alloys to optimise lifespan and reliability of the unit. Paired with the long stroke design the Monza provides great bottom end power to suit demanding high grip on-road tracks. The super-aligned knife edged aerodynamic connecting rod is also made with a special aluminium alloy. The carburettor sports the latest double bottom-end adjustment for fine-tuning.
