Trials Overall

Modalities: The trial is divided into different modalities, such as the open-air trial (outdoor) and the indoor trial, which takes place in closed spaces such as stadiums. There are also variants such as the bicycle trial (bike trial) and the electric trial.

Scoring: In the trial, the pilots are scored based on their ability to overcome the obstacles. Each obstacle is assigned a value and points are awarded for mistakes such as touching the ground with your feet, going off course or falling off the bike. The goal is to accumulate as few points as possible.

Techniques: Trials requires a combination of technical skills, such as balance, throttle and brake control, traction and precise address. Riders use techniques such as the "zero crossing" (in which the bike is held completely still), the "two step" (where the momentum of the rear wheels is used to overcome an obstacle) and the "jump" ( to overcome high obstacles).

Trial bike: Trial bikes are specifically designed for this discipline. They are usually light, with low displacement engines and great maneuverability. They also have an adequate transmission for speed and power control in technical situations.

Competitions: Trial is a competitive discipline with national and international championships, such as the FIM Trial World Championship. Competitions are held in different categories depending on the age and skill level of the riders.

Trials is a challenging sport and requires constant practice to develop technical and physical skills. In addition, it focuses on control, concentration and the ability to make quick decisions. It is important to practice the trial in designated areas and respect the safety regulations to guarantee a safe and satisfactory experience.
