The 2011 Beta Evo 250 4T is a four-stroke trials bike from the Italian maker Beta. Its liquid-cooled 249.6cc single makes 18.2 hp through a five-speed gearbox and chain. A low 680 mm seat, 72 kg dry weight and 2.6-litre tank keep it light and precise in sections.

Best for
Built purely for competitive and recreational observed trials riding, tackling extreme low-speed technical obstacles rather than any form of road use.
Built for
An ultra-light, razor-precise trials tool with instant throttle response and pinpoint balance, designed to hop, climb, and pivot over obstacles a normal bike could never approach.
Not ideal for
This bike is not suitable for anyone wanting a comfortable commuter, a highway tourer, or a passenger-carrying machine.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
