Zanetti Motori

From 1967-75 the firm built mopeds, and also supplied bicycle attachment engines as kits with the motor mounted above the front wheel.

Models include: Bicizeta C50 42cc two-stroke

It appears that the Zanetti Bicizeta may also have been built in Argentina, where it was marketed by the Puma company.

Zanetti C50
I am attempting help my friend get his zanetti c50 running. We have all the pieces, and have taken it apart and cleaned it, and are in the process of reassembling, i have noticed that the piston rings are broken, we have been looking on the internet to find information and try to find parts. The number on the engine says zanetti c50/2/316 and on the inside of one side of the engine cover is says c50/2/356. We dont know anything about it other then it is orange, doesnt run but does not appear. To be missing any pieces. If you know of any thing that may help us it is very much appreciated

message: Hello,
I recently became the owner of a nearly pristine Zanetti motorized bicycle. I can find virtually no information as to the lineage of the marque. Mine appears to be in nearly perfect condition, but will need a new fuel tank cap and pedals. Any help would be greatly appreciated. The exact model is a Zanetti Motori C-50.

Found a couple of Zanetti entries on Ebay Mexico - a Super Zanetti Splash Road 125 scooter, and a Moto Zanetti 250cc Impecable Tipo Fatboy - the latter is a 4 stroke twin.

All I know about this mini is that it has 2 stroke motor with a manual clutch that says motori zanetti bologna on side cover. and that it has front and rear drum brakes, 3.10x10 tires. Some people said was a Benelli but I can not find any photos of it. If any one can help please e-mail me at angelogazzara at hotmail dot com thank you
