SINCRO FACTORY MY 2026
SINCRO movement
The
moment eagerly awaited by trial enthusiasts has arrived: Beta launches
the new Sincro Factory. After revolutionising the game with the
introduction of the all-new MY26 Sincro, Beta continues its tradition
with the Factory models, which represent the ultimate expression of
competition in the trial segment, according to the Florence, Italy –
based manufacturer.
This
Factory version is designed for those who are wanting a higher level of
performance in trial competition. Every component has been designed to
reduce weight, increase responsiveness and ensure a direct connection
between the bike, rider, and terrain. High-level components along with
an engineered design provides the rider with a motorcycle capable of
conquering the most technical sections with precision. With the Sincro
Factory, every obstacle becomes an opportunity to push the limits and
experience Trial in its purest and most adrenaline-fueled form.
The
starting point for the Factory range is, of course, the all-new Sincro
model, recently introduced which offers features that are not found on
other brands such as:
- Hydroformed single-beam aluminium alloy frame with new forged components and a built-in fuel cell.
- Revised suspension with wide steering angle and completely redesigned rear shock leverage ratio.
- New lightweight swingarm, with modified geometry and design.
- New engine (stressed member), with a direct cylinder reed intake for broader power delivery.
- Cooling system with new hidden internal passages for a reduction of heat transfer.
- All-new diaphragm clutch with adjustability for different progression.
- Additional added new components, including: rear brake, wheel hubs, airbox and much more.
Building
on the technical base mentioned above, Beta has worked to enhance all
of the new features found on this new model, from its benchmark
manoeuvrability to the extreme manageability of the engine, to develop a
bike capable of competing at the top level in all forms of trial
competition.
These
new Sincro Factory models have updates to their engine and chassis to
enhance the character of the original Sincro range, yet with an added
amount of personality that makes the Factory models a step-above.
- ENGINE The engines of the Factory versions differ from the standard ones in the following characteristics: Black
magnesium cases: a bold design that combines aesthetics and pure
performance. The new magnesium cases reduce the weight by about 1 kg
compared to the standard version, giving the bike uncompromising agility
and responsiveness. Taking advantage of the new cooling circuit
designed for the Sincro My26, the coolant does not come into contact
with the magnesium alloy, preventing corrosion. This is made possible by
a nylon insert mounted inside the engine case - clutch side, which
creates a hidden coupling between the water pump outlet and the cylinder
inlet.
- Clutch
(only for 250-300cc engines): the new diaphragm-style clutch uses a
higher number of clutch disks over the standard model (7 instead of 6),
while maintaining the same external dimensions. This variant allows for
precise control and consistent operation, maintaining the same
smoothness at the lever even with intensive use. The new clutch ensures
approximately 20% more transmissible torque, even with higher power in
play. All this is particularly useful in managing the most extreme
repeated actions, even at high rpm, where the management of
transmissible torque is very delicate. By acting on the pressure plate,
the Sincro Factory clutch can also be adjusted to three different
positions, changing its preload.
- Red anodised engine oil caps. Simply for beauty.
- Titanium
exhaust: the entire exhaust system has been redesigned. The titanium
exhaust manifold on the 250/300 models reduces weight by over 500g and
improves performance at medium-high revs, thanks to the increased
internal diameter. The silencer has also been redesigned to work in
junction with the new manifold, creating a more direct system that
enhances maximum power and makes the throttle response more responsive.
The result is precise and responsive power delivery, which still
maintains the excellent manageability of the engine, thanks to the new
layout.
The SINCRO Factory 125
exhaust, also in titanium, differs from that of the larger displacement
models in the first part of the manifold, which has a reduced diameter
and length (cylinder side), and in a dedicated terminal. The silencer
has been resized with a shorter length and a smaller diameter inner tube
(compared to 250-300cc), helping to optimise the performance of this
small 125cc.
In
keeping with Beta tradition, the Trial Factory models are equipped with
a more powerful engine than the standard model, and this feature is
also confirmed for the My26.
Thanks
to the lighter weight of the cases, the new titanium exhaust system and
the dedicated cylinder, the bike is more manoeuvrable, while the
engines ensure greater performance and rideability, guaranteeing
explosive power and performance at a higher level when needed. Handling
is exemplary and vibration is reduced to a minimum.
In
the new 2026 model year, the spotlight is particularly on the 300 2T
model, which introduces the dual sparkplug system to a trial bike for
the first time.
The
new Sincro 300 2T Factory is equipped with a brand-new engine, both in
terms of the CYLINDER and the ENGINE HEAD, which houses two SPARKPLUGS.
This system has been used on Beta’s off-road Race models with success
and now it arrives on the Factory Sincro for the sport of trial.
The
use of a dual sparkplug engine on the 300 2-stroke displacement
represents a significant step forward in terms of efficiency and
consistent performance. The presence of two ignition points also ensures
more uniform combustion within the combustion chamber for the Sincro
engine, reducing detonation and improving smoothness at low revs, which
is crucial in trials where low speed control is everything. This system
ensures faster and more controlled combustion, optimising engine
response and increasing manageability. In addition, the double sparkplug
contributes to better engine heat management, reducing the risk of
fouling and promoting consistent performance even under prolonged use.
The result is a more responsive, smoother and more powerful bike,
capable of tackling technical sections with greater precision and
confidence.
The
new dedicated cylinder also features a different EXHAUST port design,
where the flow is managed differently and more directly than on the
standard model, all with the aim of increasing responsiveness and torque
at low revs. The cylinder, together with the new double sparkplug
engine head and redesigned exhaust system, which contribute to
increasing performance at maximum rpm, creates a high-performance engine
with a decisive yet manageable character throughout the entire range of
use.
To
control the new engine, the ECU control unit has also been modified,
particularly with regard to the advance map, which has been suitably
calibrated to balance the increased performance resulting from the use
of the above-mentioned components.
All
Sincro Factory models are not equipped with an electric starter motor,
which represents an avoidable weight in racing (the electric starter
can’t be added later).
CHASSIS
From a chassis and design point of view, the new Sincro Factory My 2026 differs from the standard version in the following ways:
- Front
Fork: like the Sincro, the front fork has evolved in the Factory models
in terms of both mechanical operation and hydraulics compared to the
past, working with a 10 mm reduced fork tube centre distance. The fork
sliders are new, both in terms of aesthetics and internal machining. The
reduced length of the fork tubes contributes to the weight reduction of
the component, enhancing the feeling of lightness in aerial manoeuvres,
while the gold finish embellishes the model both aesthetically and
functionally offering reduced friction. The colouring is the result of a
TIN treatment that gives the front fork excellent smoothness. The
Sincro Factory My26 also features double compression damping, which on
the one hand ensures better support for the most demanding landings and
on the other hand significantly reduces pitching, improving traction.
The hydraulic setting has been modified to cope with more racing use of
the model, increasing its responsiveness. This new fork can be adjusted
for rebound as well as spring preload for different riding conditions.
- Rear
Shock: Designed exclusively for Factory models, has a new mounting
position which, together with a setting dedicated to the new link, makes
it more progressive in its response, contributing to the centralisation
of masses (without changing its wheelbase). The body is made of very
light aluminium despite being larger than standard models. A new
adjustment has been added for compression, while those for rebound and
spring preload remain unchanged.
The
new features in the suspension ensure greater progression in
compression and better responsiveness in rebound, simplifying 'floating'
between rocks and the ability to absorb significant impacts, such as
landing from large obstacles. - Blue
anodised billet triple clamps: these ensure rigidity and lightness
(weighing approximately 100g less than the standard ones), also allowing
the handlebar clamps (two mounting points) to be moved forward/backward
to find the ideal riding position. The design of this component is new
and significantly enhanced with machining, just like on the bikes of the
Factory Team riders.
- Black
Ergal footpegs: thanks to CNC machining, they offer high structural
rigidity with reduced weight, improving riding precision and force
transmission. The material guarantees corrosion resistance and thermal
stability, ensuring high grip for the boot even in extreme conditions,
as well as having a superior aesthetic finish.
- Blue anodised handlebar: the new blue anodised Reikon handlebar retains its unrivalled flexibility, ensuring a stunning look.
- Custom
red silicone radiator hoses: these contribute to better cooling of the
engine as well as being more durable over a rubber hose while adding to
the bikes racing look.
- Galfer
racing brake disks: for maximum braking power in both dry and wet
conditions. The new Galfer disks with self-cleaning design are extremely
lightweight, which helps to reduce the bike's unsprung weight,
improving handling.
- BrakTec
brake and clutch master cylinders: the best possible choice in terms of
control precision, to satisfy even the most demanding rider.
- REAR BRAKE CALIPER with anti-vibration brake pad system
- New blue anodised Excel rims.
- Dunlop Geomax Trial tyres.
- New
graphics: the racing character of the model is enhanced by the new
graphics, which combine the raw aluminium frame with the distinctive red
and blue colour scheme typical of Beta's race-ready models. The blue
anodised components complete the look of the bike, which is more racing
than ever.
