The 2026 model of Chinese brand Zontes' middleweight adventure bike, the 'ZT703-F,' retains its 699cc inline-triple while newly adopting ride-by-wire, cruise control, a bidirectional quickshifter and a 6-axis IMU. It will be offered in two variants: an off-road-leaning version with a 21-inch front wheel, and an on-road-leaning version with a 19-inch front wheel.

A 699cc triple with a 6-axis IMU and even a bidirectional quickshifter thrown in - I genuinely groaned in approval looking at the spec sheet. A triple is exactly the kind of thing that appeals to connoisseurs too. Being able to choose between a 21-inch and 19-inch front for on and off-road is clever differentiation as well. I want to line the equipment up against Europe's middleweight ADVs and compare down to the last detail, exactly where and how they differ.

Nice that there are on-road and off-road versions, you can pick based on how you tour.

Chinese bikes fitting IMUs now, feels like a different era.

The off-road-leaning version with a 21-inch front, genuinely want this one.

Feels like the engine's unchanged and it's just electronics that got loaded up.

A 699cc triple with a 6-axis IMU and bi-directional quickshifter, packed with equipment.

With all this equipment at Chinese pricing, the Japanese adventure-bike brands should be worried.

With a 6-axis IMU you get cornering ABS, so it boosts the safety margin.
