- GASGAS’ all-new generation MC 50 and MC 65 offer next-level performance
- Adjustable ergonomics allow each bike to be adapted as riders grow
- Check them out in GASGAS dealers from December 2023
Kids grow fast – sometimes a little too fast – which is why the GASGAS engineers have made the MC 50 and MC 65 adjustable in size. This means youngsters can continue riding a familiar bike, really getting the most out of it before stepping up to a bigger model. Plus, as both bikes are built from quality components in the same way as full-size GASGAS MX models, you know that these little rippers are the real deal.
MC 50
The new engine creates a broader spread of power, making the MC 50 so much easier to ride, and with classic GASGAS styling influenced by our full-size bikes, it really is a seriously good-looking dirt bike! Everything about it, including the new ignition, cylinder head, exhaust, frame and WP rear shock, combine to really boost the overall performance and handling of this awesome little 2-stroke.
Technical Highlights – MC 50
New and adjustable ergonomics – For the first time ever, the MC 50 features adjustable, child-specific ergonomics, which means the bike perfectly fits a wider range of riders. The bodywork, shock and subframe can now be fitted in two positions, offering a seat height of either 634mm or 682mm. This allows smaller kids to start on a smaller bike and stay with the MC 50 as they grow – in both size and confidence.
New bodywork – Influenced by our full-size bikes to create a unified look across the range, the new and scaled-down all-red bodywork looks the business!
New motor – With a slightly larger capacity of 49.9cc, the new motor creates a much broader spread of power when compared to the old generation but make no mistake, this little motor is just as high revving and packs a real punch!
New frame – Replicating the design of our bigger bikes for ultimate strength, improved handling and confidence-inspiring stability. The shock’s mounting position has also been moved to reduce energy transfer through the frame for next level rideability.
New polyamide reinforced steel subframe – Strong, light and height adjustable with two positions to accommodate growing riders, while playing a vital role when it comes to the bike’s overall handling.
New cylinder head – Redesigned inserts made from two separate parts for simplified maintenance – who doesn’t love that?
New ignition – The new digital ignition is largely responsible for the increased power and durability of the new MC 50.
New clutch – A reinforced basket means improved durability while the multi-disk clutch pack helps deliver smooth and predictable power.
New radiator – One large radiator (instead of two) helps simplify the hose routing to improve cooling in all conditions.
New exhaust – With the welds on the inside smoothed over it makes for a noticeable power gain throughout the rev-range.
New WP XACT Rear Suspension – A shorter rear shock lowers the back end of the MC 50 to create a much more balanced chassis and is perfectly matched to the WP XACT front forks.
New footpegs – All-new design improves grip, prevents mud from building up and stops them catching on deep ruts.
New handlebars and grips – A super modern bar bend improves body position and boosts technique while ODI grips offer maximum comfort.
New hour meter – For making sure routine maintenance stays on schedule.
MC 65
For kids stepping up from the MC 50, our MC 65 is ready and waiting. Because riding the MC 65 could be the first time a child throws their leg over a dirt bike with a clutch and transmission, our engineers have designed both components to be easy to use and maintain a consistent performance. This, in addition to the unrestrictive ergonomics, more usable spread of power and a perfectly balanced chassis, allows young thrill seekers to focus on what matters most – riding fast and having fun!
Technical Highlights – MC 65
New and adjustable ergonomics – For the first time ever, the MC 65 features adjustable, child-specific ergonomics which means the bike caters for more riders. The bodywork, shock and subframe can now be fitted in two positions, which offers a seat height of either 715mm or 760mm. This allows smaller kids to start on the lower seat height and eventually graduate to the taller setting, keeping them riding the same bike for longer and building up their skills and confidence.
New bodywork – Similar to the new MC 50, the new bodywork is a scaled down version of our full-size bikes abd also looks the business!
New motor – Much more powerful than the old generation and sets the bar even higher when it comes to 2-stroke performance!
New frame – Replicating the design of our big bikes for ultimate strength, improved handling and confidence-inspiring stability. The shock’s mounting position has also been moved to reduce the energy transfer through the frame for next level rideability. Riders will also enjoy carving through tighter corners thanks to a wider steering range.
New polyamide reinforced steel subframe – Strong, light and height adjustable with two positions to accommodate growing riders while playing a vital role when it comes to the bike’s overall handling.
New cylinder head – Redesigned inserts made from two separate parts for simplified maintenance.
New ignition – The new digital ignition is largely responsible for the increased power and durability of the new MC 65.
New clutch – A steel basket means improved durability while the diaphragm spring clutch self-adjusts to maintain performance.
New radiators – Two new Pankl radiators replicate the same design as used on our full-size GASGAS dirt bikes but scaled down to fit the MC 65. These rads, in addition to a new coolant hose layout, keep the bike running super cool for maximum power and motor durability.
New exhaust – With the welds on the inside smoothed over it makes for a noticeable power gain throughout the rev-range.
New WP XACT rear suspension – A shorter rear shock with 253.5mm of travel lowers the back end to create a much more balanced chassis and is perfectly matched to the WP XACT front forks.
New footpegs – All-new design improves grip, prevents mud from building up and stops them catching on deep ruts.
New shift lever – Influenced by our full-size bikes, precise shifting in all conditions is super easy thanks to its clever design that prevents mud from building up around the tip.
New kickstart – A quick prod of the redesigned kickstart and the MC 65 fires into life. Simple!
New handlebars and grips – A super modern bar bend improves body position and boosts technique while ODI grips offer maximum comfort.
New hour meter – For making sure routine maintenance stays on schedule.
