Beta Announces Return of Minitrial Electric Models
Cycle News Staff | February 6, 2023
Beta’s Minitrial Electric model is back and comes in two sizes. The 16-inch model is designed for youth riders between the ages of 5-9 years of age and the 20-inch model is for riders aged between 8-12 years. These two MiniTrials Electric Bikes are marketed as “…great introduction to riding trials for young riders in a non-intimidating way,” says Beta.
Beta added, “These models have taken electric trials to a new level with their seamless power that has no hesitation or gaps. This alone will build confidence in future trial champions. The frames are aluminum, making the bikes a full eight pounds lighter than other brands. These bikes have fully hydraulic brakes with an adjustable air shock in the back. Maxxis tires provide these bikes with the grip and control to produce a stable platform for kids to learn the sport of trials.”
The Minitrial E has a three-position power switch (Slow, Medium, Fast) and will run for roughly a full two hours on the slow/trial position.
Availability is March with a $2299 MSRP for the 16-inch and $2499 for the 20-inch. CN
