Anyone got any details for the 20.0?

Oset 20" link

All that we know at the moment mate. We had Ian Smith in the shop on saturday and he is still finalising the spec of the bike with the manufacturers

cheers

this looks really good! and impresive wheelies from oliver!

yeah i watched that one too. hes getting really good on that bike! i cant wait till my boys old enough to start doing those sort of things

I heard some rumours from OSET Us today. He didn't say it was secret so I will throw it out there. Hope I don't make anyone mad.

The 20" is likely to be 48V using sealed lead acid batteries. They are making sure they get everything just right so it is delayed a bit. I imagine it will get to the UK first, but they say it will hit the US in late summer or early fall.

Yay for 48V! Not yay for SLA batteries but I guess I can just convert that one to lipo too. Not yay for the delay but I guess it is better to get it right and late than to get it early and wrong.

I have a deposit down on a 20 so can't wait. Further unconfirmed rumours are: UK launch June and there will be factory 'upgrades' available for those wanting better runtime/performance.

Is it just me or is this getting a little silly. It's August and still nothing.

The UK launch was at the WTC. Bikes should be at UK dealers in September. RRP

Thanks Dave. Any news on specs? Specifically around batteries?

Yes, the standard bike is running 48v lead acid batteries. The run time is far longer than the smaller bikes. Running at 70 amps.

Spoke with Oset this AM. There might be a factory battery upgrade in the future but no dates for now. As Dave's pointed out, the bikes should be in the country end of August, at dealers in Sept.

It looks a fantastic piece of kit, new controller looks great and very tuneable.

Just bought a 36v for mini baldilocks but its getting delivered via the north pole and will arrive on a sleigh towards the end of December.

I've mentioned this before but the 20 makes the case stronger, will our current kids under say 10 years old ride electric bikes all their life. I can see my son being on the 36 for a couple of years then maybe the 20. Think how much land access may improve if there was an adult version. Gas Gas and Sorpa currently make one so its not that far away, 5 years perhaps ?

it could be sooner than 5 years if the prices were a bit cheaper.

I was having this conversation with fellow trialers last weekend. They recommended I do not wait for the Oset 20 and buy him 'a real bike' so he can 'learn to use the clutch' properly early on. I think it is just round the corner for kids to never use a clutch again.

That said, my boy rides a KTM 65SX with clutch and 6 gears as his other bike. Little MX/Enduro bikes still have a way to go but I really hope it happens sooner rather than later so we can get some tracks and riding areas back!
