I think the Zenoha is one of the most robust engines at all. However in Germany the ZDZ is cheaper than the ZG.

I know the question was lowest price power, but what good is the extra power if the real price you pay is extra weight? ZDZ by far is the lightest and likely the most powerful. Like they say...you get what you pay for. Good luck.

Don't overlook the Brison 2.4 (40cc). I don't like, or at least avoid, rear carb setups so I would go with the Brison.

I'll weigh in with preference for either the FPE or the ZDZ.

The ZDZ will have much more power and be much lighter than the others you have asked about. The ZDZ is an electronic ignition engine, the others are magneto ignition (much heavier and not as much power) ...

I have 4 zenoahs, and love them all, but they are a bit on the portly side......
