How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built purely for competitive and recreational trials riding, tackling obstacles, rocks, and technical terrain at walking pace rather than for any kind of conventional riding.
- Built for
- A featherlight, razor-responsive two-stroke trials tool defined by explosive low-down torque delivery, pinpoint chassis feedback, and total disregard for comfort or a conventional seat.
- Not ideal for
- Not suitable for anyone wanting a road-going, touring, or daily commuter bike, as it lacks a real seat, lights, fuel range, and any high-speed capability.
