  • Ever wondered how good a small 2 stroke dirt bike would be at hill climbs? Well that's what we are here to find out! Today we're riding at the awesome Wern Ddu Quarry enduro complex which has a list of awesome hill climbs. Some nearly impossible, but many of them bike breakers! We decided this would be the day we will take our tiny 150cc dirt bikes and try sending them up some ridiculous hills. Enjoy.

      If the 150 is the most fun and it clearly makes your riding better, why do you class the 300 as the best bike you have owned? What does that do better for you?

      @@MrCRAIGREVO I just have no other 150's to compare. The 300 is an all round bike and out of all the ones I've owned the 2024 is by far the best. Smooth power, suspension, frame, peg position and the list goes on. I feel a lot more comfortable on it.

    Hey MX, for those smaller 2 strokes and even the bigger ones, don't hesitate to lay on the throttle more. Your friend kept making it up because he would gain some speed, and keep higher rpms. You gotta twist the throttle more before you hit the hill. And then hold that throttle until you have to. Don't be afraid to go faster

    Been riding dirt bikes for 45 years. Had my share of big bore 4 and 2 strokes. I am getting older and starting to loose stamina with my 300exc so I bought a 150exc a couple of years ago. Love it! It doesn't wear me out as fast as the 300. A bit lighter. I can just keep up with my boys on their 300's till about 80km/h then they pull away but in the tight stuff I'm all over them if I am fresh.
    Have you made some adjustments to the power valve spring. Mine really came to life after a few tweeks.
