thanks for the video Danny sorry for pestering you and now feel satisfied . can't wait for the next few videos . I'm thinking of changing from gas gas to trs is there much difference cheers
I rode the very first model of TRS when they first launched. Felt like a great bike even at that time. Prefer the gasgas or beta bikes personally but the TRS does look the goods.
@@TrialTube 100% Dan they're great tour reviews, makers should take note, it's not all big Toni and co !! Cheers from nova Scotia, (but I did ride in the UK in the 80's and 90's)
Owner of a 2019 TRS 300RR with 150 hours , Best Bike I’ve had so far out of 3 (2 Sherco 300 ST factory editions previously ,, also good bikes but the TRS is better IMO), My favourite thing about the TRS is the power delivery , it’s amazing , throttle control feels precise , clutch is super light adjustable and very precise , the finish and components are top shelf🥇The front loom is actually pretty good Dan , once you trim it down ( get rid of the headlight and rear light )and move the map switch into the super skinny TRS bar pad ( there’s even a little diamond notch in it already ) However my three complaints are identical to what you’ve discovered in this review , Snail cam tensioners like on most other bikes are definitely easier, but supposedly the TRS style tensioners don’t slip when tightened to spec and once you keep the adjuster threads copper greased they’ll be mint. Only one piece of advice for taller riders , I’m just over 6ft1 And I like to run a 5mm spacer under the handlebar clamps for just a little more comfort while keeping the fork legs in the exact stock location in the triple clamps , if you want to use two spacers under the handle bar mounts (I’d recommend only to go for 2-5mm spacers) be careful when un tightening the handlebar mount nuts underneath the top triple clamp , They are tight tight and you can round off the Nuts when using a ractchet which you’ll need as it’s hard to get a spanner in there , not only are they really tight but you need to use a vice or rubber mallet to get the two metal pin bolts out of the triple clamps , turn them upside down and re insert them into the top triple clamp and you have more space on top for a spacer and just enough thread below the triple clamp to tighten the nut fully. You can buy Carbon Fibre Foot-peg Knuckle protectors from Steve Saunders TRS Distributor UK , they’re a bit of a fiddle to fit and may need a bit of fettling , but they protect the part of the frame that gets scraped by the foot pegs ,, Although I haven’t seen them in stock for a while , (Steve get them back in stock 😢) Only one complaint Dan ,,,would have liked to see you try a few more sections 😋 However , well bloody done on the step up to 90 degree hop off , tasty riding there D 👌🏻
Great comment 🔥 love it when people actually post well thought through comments! Really appreciate the feedback and better do some more riding in the next one!! Thanks again and don’t forget to share the video! It really helps us
Yea, I agree, and the TRRRRRRRRSSSSSSSRRRRRSSS has always looked a bit, let’s say over styled, sometimes less is more? It does look a very nice well built bit of kit, but the prices of most bikes now are on the fringes of a really nice car. Especially when you think most of it is old tech, not cutting edge, look at the GG, improved but still carb and not vastly different from the pro from 02? IMHO..
Great review, i can relate to your findings. I love the driveabilty and lightness of my 2020 250 TRS Raga Racing Replica (how many R’s can you add). I switched to a billet CSP tank cap to protect the private parts. Only known weak point that TRS should adress in my opinion is the waterpump seal, mine started leaking after 6 rides and my mate had two of them go bad in one year.
Love my 2021 250 RR. HOWEVER, there are like 7 of them in my club... EVER single one leaks at the water pump seal. They keep "updating the seal". My latest fix was a new pressure relief valve on the radiator. Holding now, but feel like it's on borrowed time and will leak again. My buddy has a new 22. It leaked within minutes of the first ride. TRS needs to figure this out.
Yup pretty similar to my thoughts. Never noticed the light wiring on the bikes I've tested. The rear does look a bit sloppy but I wonder if it needs to be a bit ick because of where the light is mounted. If it was nice and tight it would do bad things when the fender bends. 🤷♂️ . Anyway I feel like the TRS compared to my R2 is a little more skecty in the corners. The front seems to blow out with less warning. I don't care for the 250 motor, but the 300 was really nice. Anyway great vid as always. Thanks again for another good and honest review!
Thanks for a great view and comment Shawn. I know what you mean my Nitro feels more stable in a corner but the TRS climbed so well! Anyway brother, don’t forget to share as it really helps the views
Love watching this channel, so thanks from Australia. I rode bikes years ago but not trials. Am now 62 and wanting to get into it. Can you do some tests on entry level bikes maybe, even whether I should consider a twin shock one. I'm only a light weight shorty. Any advice welcome. Thanks again mate.
Incredible to hear from you all the way from the other side of the world! Ain’t the internet incredible?! I will try my best to get some entry bike test done. Maybe I need a 125 review?
I’m feeling like modern trials owners are becoming spoilt with choice. Re Graphics, here is hoping GasGas approach with less is more will take off in future updates for the TRS. Thanks for another great review.
Danny. 😃Dont worry about the cable of the back light. Coz the lights (front and back) usually stop working after 5 to 10 minutes maximum. At least on my (so far) two 300 RRs and the one of my pal. 👍🏻NICE REVIEW as always. (🙃except the looooong shot of your rear end of course) Also nice riding!
It’s amazing how different the 250 and 300 models feel. 250 TRS, Sherco, Beta feel small and nimble. The 300’s of all those bike feel like bloody tanks, no comparison. Strangely the GG and Vertigo bikes don’t have the same issue.
Great video Danny. How did you like the clutch ? Any drag or slippage in 2nd and 3rd gear ? Do you know what oil they’re using for the gear box ? Thanks mate 👍🏻
Any chance of a 280cc review, or maybe 250 vs 280 vs 300 TRS comparison?. There's so little info (especially on TH-cam) about 280cc models. They are the forgotten (best of both worlds) clubman hero 😆👍
I am new to trials but having a blast riding and competing with my two young boys. Great family sport as mom comes along, too! I have a TRS 300 RR and appreciate all your videos and, yes, I shared it with friends. Im thinking the 250 would better match my (lack of) skills. TRS is very popular in my area but most people are doing electric start. Maybe we’re lazy but it’s nice to hit the button.
The button a great Idea and why wouldn’t you wanna just hit the button and go straight to the enjoyment portion?! Thank you for sharing and watching and let’s get this trials sport back on top!
@@johndimeo1821 I think you could get a better deal, why would you trade in a newer bike against an older one? I do not know your circumstances but I am sure you could find a better trade in?
I completely disagree with you on the chain tensioner point there all enduro and mx bikes use the trs method and it is way way easier than adjusting the chain on my gas gas good video tho
I like the old school way… but each to their own my man! Ps saw a very experienced rider struggling with them a few weeks back…but I suppose it is what it is lol
I'm not a fan of the TRS rear wheel adjusters either. Not familiar with the newer GG adjusters, but looking at pics it looks like they're inboard cams which I also don't really like. My older GG has outboard cams with notches in them, set both cams to the same notch and tighten the axle, done in like 5 seconds.
gone back to to have a look at this after the new beta podcast. the styling of this bike is a mess. everyone needs to learn from how the new gas gas looks. ie. like if ferrari made a trials bike.
Of all the bike you've tested this bike is my favourite
Great bike well made pure quality! Finally made the switch to trs after having gasgas an scorpa bikes ! So glad I made the move!
Good to hear! Different folks different strokes lol
I rode one of these over last weekend. The suspension was phenomenally good. Plush would be the word to describe it.
All new bikes have great suspension!!
Some still better than others
love it. These reviews are spot on and crack me up.
Glad to hear it!
Thanks for these reviews Danny Butler, Trial Tube has quickly become one of our most valuable resources.
Thank you too!
Another great review. It does look like a ton of thought went into how to get to everything when it comes to servicing time. Neat bike.
They are so easy to work on. Probably the best bike for this.
Love it! Yeah they are decent it seems and plenty of space for maintenance. No sore fingers
Once again another banger video!! Love from the US
Thanks man appreciate it
Great machine! Our intake testing has been very positive with this make/model/year. The future of Trials is good!
We completely agree and thank you so much for an amazing comment from an awesome brand!
Do you have a part number for the Reed valves?
You say, and you have! Another great episode. Greetings from Poland 👍
Hey man! Thanks for watching in Poland!!
@@TrialTube The pleasure is all mine man 🤠
thanks for the video Danny sorry for pestering you and now feel satisfied . can't wait for the next few videos . I'm thinking of changing from gas gas to trs is there much difference cheers
They are very close to the feeling of the GasGas for sure but it was developed by two long time GASGAS legends!
I rode the very first model of TRS when they first launched. Felt like a great bike even at that time. Prefer the gasgas or beta bikes personally but the TRS does look the goods.
It is always great to have many brands available!
Another great vid Mr B, as honest as ever. Keep them coming, great to listen to someone who tells it as it is. 👍
I try my best and really appreciate the support!! Thank you!!! 👍👍

No doubt it felt good!!
Thanks for agreat review. Very interesting. Hope you kept Jordi happy 🤣
Not a clue but I am sure he will tell me!
I loved my 2020 Trs One R 250. Only downside was having to warm the airbox lid back into shape about once a month.
Haha I heard a rumour about that! But did give a nod to that..

Just gotta make it now lol

Thanks dude and really appreciate the support hope you shared it? Lol (just appreciate the views) ps the lights were bad…
@@TrialTube btw. The rear tensioners work fine so far. Also exchanging or takin out n in the wheel is quick n easy.
Good to know…

I would go with that. The smaller 250’s feel good and the 300’s in the GASGAS (2023 especially) and the infamous Nitro feel awesome in all the sizes!
Can you get protection for the lower frame near the foot pegs Danny?
Ask Steve Saunders he may have something in stock?
Thanks I’ll give them a call 👍
Good as always👍🏼🤩
Cheers man don’t forget to share!
I really enjoy these videos, but the real question is, is it better than a vertigo JBR?
Hahaha it wasn’t a comparison…luckily 😉
❤❤
Positive that if they changed the colour it would have a bigger audience.
I agree! 😂
We Americans like "low brow" and you do it very well!!!...lol....great job
That’s what I like to hear!!
Great video Danny. How did you like the clutch ? Any drag or slippage in 2nd and 3rd gear ? Do you know what oil they’re using for the gear box ?
Thanks mate 👍🏻
No drag or slippage! It felt really good!
I have a feeling you still prefer the Nitro.
I’ll have to try a Vertigo one of these days.
Did he say fork angle or four candles.
Fork Angle for candles…
cool vid
Cheers dude!! Give it a share!
You asked politely… sub’d and liked 😁
Thank you so much makes a huge difference!
