Thanks to serious investment made by Pierer Mobility AG, in addition to GasGas’ longstanding passion and commitment to trials, we’ve created our best trials bikes ever! This successful alliance between Europe’s #1 bike building company and GasGas, the trials specialists, has created a strengthened R&D team, a re-energized GasGas Factory Racing and U.S. trials team, and a clearer, more detailed testing process, which directly led to the creation of an all-new generation of GasGas trials bikes.
Our goal heading into 2023 was simple—to build the best performing GasGas trials bikes ever made! Besides retaining the finest, competition-focused aftermarket components, the TXT Racing and TXT GP are pretty much all-new. Everything on the outgoing generation was thoroughly analyzed and then refined or replaced with better, stronger, or lighter parts. The 2023 GasGas trials lineup represents a fleet of bikes that more than exceed what we set out to do.
Developed over the last two years, the latest generation of GasGas TXT Racing trials bikes deliver unrivaled performance with looks to match. Ensuring serious rideability has always been at the top of the list when building our much-loved TXT Racing range, which is now complete with even more quality components to lift the all-important fun-factor to impressive new levels for 2023. The two proven capacities—300cc and 250cc—give riders of all abilities the chance to experience something very special.
With “GP” in the TXT GP naming standing for Grand Prix, you know this model range means business. Capable of competing at the highest level straight from showroom floor, the TXT GP is available in two classic displacement sizes: 300cc and 250cc. Designed specifically for the more serious riders out there, these are the very best 2-stroke trials bikes that money can buy.
The TXT Racing range will land in authorized GasGas dealerships from July 2022 onward. TXT GP models will follow this fall.
