June 11, 201016 yr Hi, im looking at getting my daughter a trials bike, she's 11 year old and wasn't sure how long an 80cc would last her for size and power or is it worth getting a 125 and just letting her practice till she's old enough to compete. Cheers.
June 11, 201016 yr My lad had a TXT80 big wheel for 12 months and it did him proud, it was easy to start and felt very light. It made riding simple because every section was first gear, he got on with it very well. He spent so much time restarting and picking it up at first that a heavier and harder to start 125 might have put him off completely. Pete
June 11, 201016 yr A Beta 80 would be more than powerful enough and size wise much more manageable than a 125. My sons have Beta Rev80's and they pull my 12 stone up and over banks and rocks. The Beta Rev 80 from 2008 onward is a very capable bike from the first ride up to youth C national trials. Hope this helps JFC
June 11, 201016 yr I would go for a beta 80 as they are more manageable, a 125 is the next stage up and quite abit more powerful, if I am right she would have to be aged 12 to compete on a 125
June 11, 201016 yr I see kids all the time riding around on 125's that are way too big for them.. All they do is blast about up hills, better to get one with less power and a size that they can throw about and learn more from. its all good handling the power but if they cant do anything because the bikes twice their size and too heavy its just going to slow their learning curve until they grow enough to use it properly
