OSET Electric Trials Bikes

Reading on the oset website it says theres becoming a wide variety of aftermarket parts available and alot of bike parts to suit the oset. Has anyone got any websites that do oset aftermarket parts, or know of any parts that would suit the oset from bikes? I wouldnt mind fitting disc brakes and hydrolic levers onto the 12.5, is this at all possible?

Hi Being now the proud owner of a 12.5 and a 16 36V (for the boys you understand ) I am a bit confused over the charge indicators on the throttle. Having built them up and plugged the charger in, the light on the charger turned to green within 5 minutes, indicating a full charge. When you turn the bikes on, 3 lights on the throttle assembly turn red. Does this indicate full charge, or do the lights on the throttle go green? Another quick question, the grips don't appear too big for my children, but the brake levers on the 12.5 are tiny (length wise), are they just replacable with cycle parts as I would like to get similar length levers to the 16. Also the bar ends peo…

Hi anyone on here any advice on which forks etc will improve the handling of the OSET 16?? Ive found a Rock shox rear shock which with a little engineering will work but I'm unsure which front forks I could use from say a mountain bike, Rock Shox, Fox or similar? Are they sized as 20" then? 1 1/8 steerer? It just seems to me that once the rider has progressed to a reasonable level the bike is letting him down, as the suspension doesnt damp like it should but rather just springs and bounces around lifting the wheel off the ground and losing traction. I dont want to spend a fortune as I am rather hoping his legs will grow and next season get him a petrol bike. Any ide…

Hi, Is there any indication/stickers referring to the manufacturer of these bike in China or which district they made in, any clues would be really useful to me. Thanks foozoo.

After reading a few other posts on this topic I understand there are a few niggles with the oset throttle control. My problem though sounds a bit different to others who have posted. Having adjusted the 'throttle response' adjuster throughout it's range; when the throttle is chopped the bike continues to pull or drive forward for anything between 1 and 4 to 5 seconds depending on 'throttle response' adjuster setting. Having had the oset 12.5 with an ordinary petrol engine type throttle response my 5 year old has found his new bike uncontrollable and to be honest unrideable. Can anyone confirm it has a fault or are there adjustments elsewhere not listed in the manual.

Did someone try bypassing the Relay, and directly connecting the wires together? My relay is bad, so I tried that on the Oset 24r, but unfortunately, the bike is not responding to throttle commands this way. Rest of the lights (battery indicator, 48v feeding the relay from the controller) work well.

My daughter likes riding her trials bike more than anything else (although rock climbing comes a close second) she is just getting to the stage where she needs good brakes but being a very small five year old, her little hands can't apply much pressure on the brake lever. I've tried various ways to improve the brakes but have now 'bitten the bullet' and fitted a twin piston hydraulic system. The Clark Skeletal system is designed for mountain bikes and offers impressive adjustments on the lever for both reach and span. It also comes with a 185mm wavy disc and allows even Jess to use just one finger on the brakes. I was pleasantly suprised when it took just 10 minute…

Just got a 16 24v and was suprised to read in the manual that the tyre pressures should be 30-40 PSI front and rear. Is that the right setup for trials? Many thanks in advance.

with the bike dialed in to have a low top speed, i find the throttle impossibly sensitive for a 3 year old - for him it is basically a digital on and off switch - providing a near instant 0-5mph acceleration. great torque but intimidating for a 3 year old. I would have hoped that with 2007 electronic technology the throttle reponse would be smooth and linear over the length the throttle turn. Clearly, this isn't so easy to do. Anyone have ideas for a work around?

Hello to all the people! Do you know if the manual for a kill magnetic switch exists? Is for my oset 12.5r 2016 and don't look here this. thanks in advance!! Dani

Just spotted this on YouTube, pretty impressive for a 7yr old... Young Wheelie King Video

Hi all first post so hellooo.... I would like to get into the trials scene as I have recently bought my daughter a torrot and going anywhere with her on my ktm is a big no no these days so I am looking at getting the oset 24 but i am a little worried that being 6ft 2 it will be a bit small, is there anyone else this tall who has one? Are they ok and what mods can be done to make it ok for us lanky folk? I am in the weight limit so that is not a problem and I will also be getting a better battery for it so I'm just concerned about them being too small. Cheers ?

Hi I am new to this forum and trials in general, I normally ride enduro or rally raids. I have ended up here because; My eldest son (6 years old) moved up from a PeeWee to a Beta Mini trial, this meant his little brother (3 n a bit) could inherit the PeeWee. Unfortunately the youngest is very small and can not manage the PeeWee, then I spotted one of the 12.5's at a Surrey School Boys events a couple of weeks ago. It was 50/50 between putting up with the PeeWee or getting an Oset until I found this forum, reading back through the messages made up my mind we now have a new 07 12.5 being delivered for Christmas. This is either going to be magical or war as the Beta…

My son (8 year, 30kg) rides MX but also has an Oset 20.0 R for technic training at home. It is a MY18 (bought 2019). We are the 2nd owner. I didnt reflect over top speed when I bought it because I didnt knew how fast it should go and had no speedometer. I have had a feeling during the whole Spring that something is not right with the speed. It only goes up to 21km/h while it should be speeding over 50km/h. The bike feels very strong, both when it comes to power and response. But I have nothing to compare to, so maybe it should be stronger. What I have done is, bought new batteries (it didnt help). I also screw down and put together the whole bike (and …

How many kids woke up to find a shiny new Oset this morning? My lad got his last Christmas and I thought he was going to 'pop' with excitement

Anyone tried these on a oset? http://www.boost-bikes.co.uk/products/16-20-lite-36v-oset-battery-pack-and-smart-charger?variant=3135462019 Really tempted for my sons bike to improve ride times

Have a look at thse videos http://www.youtube.com/results?search_quer...p;search=Search The first one 'OSET - On the Hill' shows a fairly deep beck section about 1 minute 40 seconds in
