Looks like a fun little bike. It's still a concept but hopefully it will be on sale in the next few years

Wicked!! One of those with quick release wheels and a set of tyres for dirt as well as tarmac would be the shiz. Doesnt look like it should weigh 88kg tho . . . thats *only* 8 kg lighter than my CR, would have thought it would be heaps less.

What do Trials bikes normally weight?

Look in one of the latest Two Wheels magazines, it's in there. And I remember telling you about it a month or so ago...

And on top of that, the bike was supposed to still be used as a means of transport in particular in urban environment.

Sooo . . . does this mean there will be road kit for it!?!

You told me about the tricker, which is a mountain bike with a motor. This is more of a BMX. The Tricker would be fun to ride but I'm not a big fan of its looks, and a MX bike would be able to jump and would be lighter

Looks like a trials bike is far lighter. The Gas Gas 300 pro is 146lb's which is 66.4kg, and thats the heaviest bike in the Gas Gas trials bike range. Thats pretty amazing since they aren't decked out in carbon fibre goodies. Wonder if you can shed a lot of weight off it if you did replace components with carbon fibre

I like the look of the Air Tricker more, and it has a YZ250F motocrosser motor with higher gearing so it would be faster than a trials bike. But a Trials bike is lighter and you can probebly do a lot more on it like enter proper trials meets, whilst the Air Tricker is more of a expensive toy
