Beta USA is bringing two new models to the Mini Adventure sectors to the market: The new Alp 4.0 and Alp X. Inspired by the historic Alp 4.0 which has been produced and sold in Europe for more than twenty-five years will now be available to USA riders this June. Beta technicians have updated the design of the Alp 4.0 as well as created a new urban version, the Alp X model.
Beta's tagline, Rideability®, has been built into the new design of both models, with features that offer an easy ride including a low seat height and the Bosch ABS system, make for pleasurable short or long adventure rides. The ABS can be turned off if desired.
The Alp 4.0 offers a more off-road package with an 18/21" wheel combination vs the Alp X model's 17/19". Both models use the same chassis and engine packages. Both engines are a 350cc liquid-cooled 4-valve head with a six-speed transmission and fuel injection that produces 35 hp. Robust in design and built for high mileage use.
The Alp X model is a more urban based model, while it can still handle tough trail riding, the wheel package and bodywork design make it a model that will be used for all-around on and off-road riding in the more populated areas.
What stands out the most about these two models is their performance on and off-road, with the low center of gravity, more rugged trails can be tackled while at the same time on the road, they run very smooth. A bike for almost all conditions, unlike other adventure bikes that feel very top-heavy and awkward off-road. While most other adventure bikes are 80% road/20% street, the Alp models are more 50/50. Each model will be offered in two colors, dark or light gray for the Alp X.
