October 27, 20223 yr New rider looking to get into the sport coming from MX, competent on a bike but have never ride trials. I only weigh 62kg so am wondering if I should go for a 125 or go straight for a 200/250? Looking at either gas gas or beta Thanks
October 27, 20223 yr Beta evo 250 ideal all rounder and ideal for easy resale if you decide to upgrade
October 27, 20223 yr Based on your background I would say anything from 125-250 would be fine and I would side on the 200-250 side if I was in your shoes myself. Having played on 125's plenty with my wife/daughter having one, I think you would be wanting more soon enough to start on something a bit bigger. My thoughts/opinion at any rate. Good luck with your choice.
October 28, 20223 yr After 30 odd years of trail riding and doing the occasional enduro (plus sport bikes etc) I started out with a 125 and that was right for me (80kg), I learned a LOT from having less power and my most loved bike (a TY175) makes about the same amount of power. I'm not aggressive rider though, I do trials to enjoy myself rather than being competitive.
