WIND IN THE P46 How Low Can You Go? Beta Xtrainer Lowboy B eta USA introduced the latest addition to its off-road lineup: the 2026 Xtrainer Low- boy. Building on the success of the standard Xtrainer, the number-one-selling entry-level enduro model according to Beta, the Low- boy variant is designed to offer even greater confidence and control for riders of all sizes. The Lowboy was previously available as a special order for an additional cost. This new model is factory-built and has the same MSRP as the standard Xtrainer. The standard Xtrainer, Beta says, has long been celebrated for its "Rideability," bridging the gap between heavy, low-suspension four- strokes and full-size competition bikes. "The new Lowboy takes this philosophy a step further by lowering the center of gravity and seat height, making technical terrain more manageable than ever before," says Beta. Key features include a 1.2-inch lower seat height compared to the standard Xtrainer. This reduction is matched by lower footpegs and ground clearance, "ensuring a balanced geometry that keeps the rider con - nected to the trail without compro- mising handling." The Xtrainer Lowboy is offered at the same MSRP and dealer cost as the standard Xtrainer model. The Beta Xtrainer LowBoy will be available in February with an MSRP of $8990. CN The new Beta Xtrainer LowBoy is essentially a standard Xtrainer with an even lower seat height.
