General Trials Talk

Hi all, I live in Australia and plan on going over to Europe to ride next year and was just wondering where the best place to train is. I know that Pons runs a coaching clinic in Spain but was just wondering if their are any other options. I don't mind where i am just want to spend lots of time on the bike and get some good coaching. Cheers

Hi folks, I've had no response from the Beta forum so I'll try here instead. My '97 Techno has no cut out switch. I want to fit one or maybe a lanyard switch. I know they only have two wires (having fitted a new one to my lads crosser) but I don't know which wires to chop into on the Beta. Any ideas?

He hasn't posted for nearly two months. Anybody know if he's OK?

Has he been at the Gas Gas factory or has he really been elsewhere?

Missing, presumed drunk? Haven't seen a post from the bugger for a while.

After a bit of time out, Im just getting back into trials. Im considering a new bike, but hesitate cos they aint got bleedin seats and only have tiddly tanks FFS! How on earth do you guys do road trials now?? How the ferk do they compete in something like the scottish???? Unless you convince me otherwise, might have to just settle for the twinshock...

I dont kno wether anyone has noticed or not but where the hell has Raga gone from the spanish national indoor champs rounds? Cheers Jono

I have been trying to contact Cliff B via this Forum and E-mail. I want to organise some accomodation for the 2010 exmoor three day trial. No reply. Not even on facebook. Anybody know where he is...doing time maybe???

Hi all, Im selling my '99 mont to buy a new bike. Should I buy a brand new bike or a almost new trials bike? and what make and model? Danny

i want a bike for around 1500 i want a reliable and also light bike. i like the gg pros but i heard that the gearbox's are s*it. also i like the sherco but ive heard to many things about the main bearings, also i think the normal txt will be good but maybe a bit to heavy. does any body no the weight of these bikes? thanks.

So here we go! Which 2 stroke oil is best?

gasgas 250 or Beta Evo 250?? what would you go for and why?

Ok guys iam in the market for a 08 /09 4 stroke trials bike so whats the best one to buy for the money beta/sherco/gasgas/or monty would like to hear from riders who have had one or riding one at present

I am by no means an expert rider, but I am not a complete novice either. For the last couple of years I have been practicing on a Scorpa 175 4t and am now thinking I would like something more competitive. I like 4 strokes, so I'm thinking Montesa 260, or Beta evo 250/300 4t. From what I have read, I think I would be better with the Beta than the old Montesa, but it's possible the new 260 is a different beast? If I went for a Beta, why would I pick the 250 over the 300 or the 300 over the 250?

Hi all I expect this has come up many times before but I bent my trusty renthal bars and I am considering what to replace them with. I am considering moving to pro taper bars but I am unsure of there quality and riding position. I prefer the pro taper bars on my YZF250 to the renthals on the YZ250. The renthals on the TY has the same effect as those on the YZ in making my right hand go numb after about 20 minutes. I am unsure if it is the type of bike or my riding position that has more effect on this rather than the make of bars. I know that most of bar choice is down to rider preference but hopefully your advice will help me select a set. Basically I need to know t…

Hi guys, I currently ride a 2008 scorpa sy250 but have had a 2007 beta rev 3 before it. Im thinking of changing agian but dont know which one to go for. think i would like to try the GG or the beta evo. Does any one any good adivse on theses bikes or any problems to look out for.

hi were going to an extremely wet trial tomorrow and my dad has two bikes -sherco 290 2006 and a 270 gas gas 1998 which should he take? the sherco has an irc tyre with good edges the gas gas was not used for 8 years and the tyres were pumped up to 30 psi so its still quite hard even whith no air but its getting softer as we keep riding it. again has good edges so which would give most grip. there are no rocks just mud the sherco is not very smooth the gasser is easy though please answer soon as trial tommoz thanks ben
