  1. Hi,

    I'm possibly looking to buy a new TRS 250 but struggling to find the differences in the models ONE vs ONE R vs ONE RR vs ONE Gold. I am a novice clubman rider,  based in the UK. I 'm looking for the model that has the highest spec suspension but with the softer engine.

    Can anyone point me where I can find the differences between the models. I looked on the importers website but it isn't 100% clear to me.

    Thanks

  2. Hi

    I have a 2013 Beta Evo, had it from new, very little use (5 trials a year on average, give or take) and when it has been ridden it's just the easy course.

    Just before Covid started the fork seals went so I had them replaced by my local Beta dealer. I did 1 trial then lockdown struck and the bike didnt see any more action until November last year. I did 1 trial and the forks seals were leaking again. I have had them replaced by my local dealer again and done 2x easy trials and now they are leaking again. BUT also, when the bike is sitting on a stand in the garage doing nothing, the oil is pooling underneath almost as if its pressurised and pushing the oil out by itself? The RH side is worse than the LH side but both sides are leaking.

    Any thoughts what the problem could be? I don't want to throw another set of seals in, I suspect something else is wrong? Bushes could be worn but I'd be surprised given how little use it's had??

    Thanks

  3. Hi, looking for some direction. I’ve lost touch a bit with the trials scene and there’s been a few new manufacturers over the last few years, TRS and vertigo.

    I seem to ride better with lighter weight bikes, with smooth controllable power. I’m just a novice rider, don’t need stacks of power.

    I’m fancying changing my beta evo 250, I love it, especially how smooth and controllable the power is, but for no other reason than I fancy a change. 
    Am I right in saying the trs is the lightest bike on the market? I saw some conflicting info on the internet?

    I hear the 300 betas and trs are generally softer power delivery than the 250? I’ve always had 250s but wonder if I should consider a 300. 

    I hope to try a few before I buy, but trying to get and idea what to try first. 
    Thanks

  4. Hi, I’m looking for a bit of help. Not ridden my beta in nearly 2 years. I was going to enter a competition a few weeks ago and found my rear brake was not working. I bled it and unceased the calliper pistons, but didn’t see much difference, so I didn’t compete. Went green laning instead

    I took it to my local shop he had a go and thought he fixed it. He bled it, did more unceasing of the calliper pistons and adjusted the rear brake pedal. I chucked the bike in the garage but didn’t try the brake. Stupid I know! Fast forward to now, I was gonna do a competition tomorrow, got the bike out and back brake is still rubbish, maybe marginally better. 
    there looks plenty of meat on the pads. 
     

    what else could the problem be?

    thanks

  5. I’m needing some new trials pants. I tried on some mots, although the waist was fine, they assume my legs are like chop sticks. It felt like they were sprayed on my legs, like skinny jeans.

    can anyone recommend some makes of trials or enduro pants that are a bit baggier, more of a comfort fit for us who don’t have such an athletic figure?

  6. Hi

    i currently ride a 2013 beta 250, which I love and is the best bike I’ve had, very easy to ride. I’ve saved some penny’s and fancy a new ride and love the look of the TRS bikes. There is no point buying another 250 beta as I might as well just keep mine and I fancy a change. 

    What are people’s opinions on what the easiest of the TRS bikes to ride out of the 250, 280 and 300. I’m just a novice rider so don’t need a load of power. I know people will advise to go ride one which I will, but any up front info and options will be great. 

    Thanks

  7. Hi just wondering what the best brake pads are for the evo.

    looking on the beta page £25 for a pair of fronts and £15 for rears.

    looking on other trials websites you can get non beta aftermarket pads, some cheaper, some same price. 

    cost doesn’t bother me so much, I would rather the best.

    any recommendations?

    cheers

  8. Does anyone know, or heard any rumours if Beta will bring out a new model for 2019? The EVO has been going a long time now. It's due refresh. Saying that it is still an awesome looking machine, for me the best looking machine out there.

    My EVO is now 5 years old and I fancy an upgrade. Should I take the plunge or wait 6 months, hmmmmmm, decisions decisions.

  9. what do people typically use for security for their bikes? I have a heavy duty chain and lock but don't have it secured to a solid anchor point. With all the bike thefts recently I want to upgrade my security.

     

    What do you guys use?

  10. Hi all, I'm looking to pick up some road legal goggles for trials/enduro helmets? 

    Im sitting my bike test in a week and my instructor told me mine weren't road legal and wouldn't be allowed to use them in the test. 

    what goggles to people use for trials/enduros that involve some road work? Like the Scottish 6 day? 

    Thanks in advance.
