First look: 2023 Beta RR 50 enduro range
Beta has released their 2023 baby enduro model range, the 2023 RR 50 models which take inspiration from the factory race bikes of Steve Holcombe and Brad Freeman in the EnduroGP World Championship.
Which kids doesn’t dreamed of owning their own enduro bike which they ride to class, meet friends without depending on anyone, and then hit the dirt at the weekends?
Beta’s 50cc range answer that with an eye on the fact that baby steps are the nursery for future enduro riders, a way of building the relationship between themselves and customers from an early age.
2022 saw the Italian manufacturer update their smallest displacement range with a new chassis and a Euro 5 compliant engine. That means the 2023 models basically only get new colours but they are good ones if you aspire to ride around looking exactly like Steve Holcombe or Brad Freeman.
Beta RR 50 Enduro range highlights:
Available in three versions – RR Enduro, RR Enduro Sport and RR Enduro Racing – which basically are more or less equipped with different spec parts although all of them share common components like frame and engine. When you look at them quickly, We have to admit it’s hard to tell the difference between the RR Enduro Racing and the RR Racing 125 model.
Cycle parts:
- Chassis with a revised geometry, for better handling and claimed greater agility.
