Proving the old adage, electric trials bike OEM OSET has launched its TXP line in 20” and 24” sizes. Standing for Trials, Xplore and Play, the all-new TXP models offer a significant advance in battery and motor technology. “These bikes are a complete, ground-up redesign over the existing models,” explains Ian Smith, founder, and CEO of OSET Bikes. “You cannot underestimate the work that has gone into these bikes. We have analyzed every single component to ensure we reach the highest standards of excellence possible with today’s technology. From frame to forks and battery to brakes, we have researched and developed every inch of the bikes and are delighted to announce what really is a new generation in electric, off-road bikes.”
The TXP bikes will also dramatically change existing off-road convention by including two seat options. Convertible, trials, and explore configurations will enable riders to develop skills across different riding environments, with just one bike. “We understand that a traditional trials bike without a seat can feel like an alien concept, so we offer two entry points,” adds Smith. “The same bike will suit a backyard rider or a person competing at the highest level of trials competition. Simply dial it up or down and change the seat or trials unit to suit ability and adventure.”
The TXP-20 is aimed primarily at children aged seven to nine and offers an increase in battery capacity over its former model, whilst the TXP-24 is aimed at pre-teens, teens and adults. “The bike is capable of usurping the gasoline powered 80cc equivalent trials bikes – the same as the original 20” OSET bike did in the 50cc class,” states Smith. “The TXP models take that heritage and deliver a complete game changer again! The writing is on the wall… and it says OSET!”
Purchased by Triumph in June of 2022, OSET Bikes was originally formed in 2006 by Ian Smith who built the first model of electric trials bikes for his son Oliver — OSET stands for Oliver Smith Electric Trials. Call them what you will, opportunity is knocking just in time for the holidays. OSET is now looking for a select group of dealers for key markets in both the USA and Canada.
