Puch is a brand known for manufacturing small motorcycles and scooters, primarily popular in Europe during the mid-20th century. Founded in Austria in 1899, Puch initially produced bicycles before expanding into motorized vehicles. The company became well-known for its reliable and efficient two-stroke engines. In the 1960s and 1970s, Puch gained a loyal following among enthusiasts, particularly for models like the Puch Maxi and Puch Monza. These vehicles were often used for commuting and recreational riding. Although Puch ceased production in the late 1980s, its legacy continues through vintage motorcycle collectors and enthusiasts.
