Youth Trials

Hi, I'm 14 years old and right now i'm riding an 04 sherco 80cc. A second hand gas gas 125 08 has popped up for

Hi just a Quick Question, Have the sections in the Youth BTC been timed this year, A,B,C,D ?

Hi First post.... We have a Beta 50 2002 mini trial rev and go, now has new clutch with new springs but will not tick over at low revs, (same with old clutch) stalls constantly when revs drop, or we turn tick over up high and bike gets to hot. I guess this is due to lack of flywheel on mx engine. Any fixes /advice please, my son is fed up stalling in sections, and I am fed up starting it!

A big thanks to Barry, Ian and all the Y.M.S.A. team for organising this years trial, having been involved in organising the IOW indoor i know how much work you must all put in, and i take my hat off to you. As well as the trial, Sunday nights entertanment was fun and the kids loved it, thanks again and well done.

Today i got up at 2.30am, got the 3.30 am ferry to the mainland, drove 250 miles to JST at Buxton arriving at 7.55 am to pick up new GG125. Left at 9.20am drove 250 miles back to catch 1pm ferry home, and arrived at 2.30pm. While i did some last min Xmas shopping AGIOW put the new bike together and it's now up and running ready for a steady Boxing day trial. Tonight and tomorrow i'am on call for any breakdowns for our garage, i don't know if i'am mad, bad, or just sad, all i know its that i feel a bit knackard right now. All for the love of trials …

After taking my two sons 8 and 11 yearrs old to the dirt bike show, I have decided to buy them both bikes for christmas. I've ordered a new 20" eco for my eleven year old but am on the look out for a 36v 16" for my 8yr old. The thinking is that maybe next year the 8yr old will move onto the 20" so should get plenty usage from the new bike. The question is what do I need to look out for when viewing / buying a second hand Oset, this is new to me and would hate to buy a dodgy bike for my sons present. Any help will be much appreciated.

Hi, does any one know where i can find a entry form for the iow national and/or if a standard ACU form is ok? thanks

Hi, I've heard there is a "competition" clutch available for the Beta 80. Can anyone tell me how much this is and if you purchase this direct from BetaUK? Also, is this a straight swap with the standard plates? Thanks

Is the above trial at Tansley nr Matlock still on tomorrow ??? Thanks in advance Phil

Hi guys I'm looking for a helmet for my 4yr old son ... His head size at 55cm is big enough for a S or XS adult lid but I was worried it might be a bit heavy for him ...been looking at the Spada and Wulf lids ... Can anyone recommend a lid that they have used with a child of same age Thanks Phil

There sure are a lot of cheap xr70s etc out there. Anybody go old school and adapt one for a beginner trialer? It seems to me like the venerably TY80 wasn't far from a trail bike. I'm a pretty good welder so I'm not afraid to move pegs or even change neck angle. Just looking to give an 8-year-old a bit of a feeling of a trials bike on a budget. It seems to me a grunty 4 stroke would be a good introduction.

hi, how old do you have to be to ride a 125cc ??? brad

A Class Sheppard 19 Sadler 38 Brain 41 Evans-Luter 59 Maunde 59 B Class Gosden 12 Walker 14 stay 14 Walsh 15 Howell 15

A & B Class Here C & D Class Here Looks like most routes were set out pretty well. The C class Looks like it was a bit tough and section 8 on the Medium wheels D class looked a bit pointless. However the riders seem to have been sorted out nicely.

I'm looking to get my 8yr old son his first bike. I'm keen on an electric bike as I hope he'll get more use of it, due to it being quiet, and I hope he'll take to it better than a bike with a clutch. Can some one please advise the difference between the Beta and the Oset 20. I'd probably go for the Oset Eco, rather than the Racing. Cheers

Bumpy will be holding a Conducted Trial for C, D and E class bikes before the Novice Beginners on the 19th May.

This Sunday we will be putting on a Small Wheel trial at the Castleside Club trial at Rogerly Quarry, running alongside the main trial. For the Small Wheels we will use the centre 'bowl' at Rogerly, which is excellent for kids. Big enough to run a 'proper' trial, but close enough for parents to be near. We will run two routes if there is enough demand:- Easy Route for Oset / beginners etc Hard Route for those a little more advanced. Suffice to say neither route will be anything dangerous, but hopefully challenging enough to take marks. There will be a full day, depending upon numbers of riders and observers (helpful parents !) of trial and practice time and I'm su…
