The Technological development and the investment made in R+D has allowed the Trial motorcycle sector to grow homogeneously in all its ranges. Maybe, the most benefited from this development are the smaller riders, who have numerous intermediate steps until they reach the big bike, ensuring an optimal development of the most important techniques on a bike according to their needs.
In this way, we have gone from large and crude petrol motorcycles with discreet chassis parts, to motorcycles with very wide technical possibilities. However, the key to learning is still at the first level. That is, in the first few meters or hours. In those moments, when we don’t even know if the fans will curdle in the little one, it is decisive that he learns with an easy bike that gives him the greatest confidence.
As we have seen in our Trial School, the students who progress the fastest are those who ride an electric motorcycle. The fact that they are not conditioned by the noise and the security that power brings them with them, has a direct impact on their evolution in a very positive way. In addition, thanks to electric motorcycles, the age at which you can start riding drops to three years, thanks to the fact that they can easily be limited and the ground clearance is truly comfortable.
Covering this market we have two brands: Mecatecno and Oset. The first one has just landed and we haven’t had a chance to test it yet. Oset, on the other hand, is well established and positioned in the market. With two versions available (3 to 5 years / 5 years to 10 years), it is the undisputed leader in the industry. The power provided by its three batteries can even propel an adult with ease. Its range, close to four hours, is enough to meet the demands of a vehicle of these characteristics.
In terms of equipment, we find great details: disc brakes (in the large version), ignition key, adjustable stem and numerous protectors.
At the Trialworld School we are working intensively with these bikes and the result could not be more positive. We have a test unit that we take to our Trial Coursesso you can see their performance for yourself.
Trialworld will market both Oset models through a physical store installed in Las Rozas (Madrid), without increases in cost. That is, maintaining the same RRP, but offering more added value by providing a specific Training Plan through our Trial School.
