Training with Jaume Masiá gave us a completely new perspective on something many riders in our community often overlook: the value of the mini GP bike.
For a lot of fast local riders, the mini GP bike is just a toy—something fun, something small, something that could never compare to a full-size race machine. But watching a professional like Masiá work with that same “toy” was eye-opening. In his hands, the mini GP bike transforms from a simple plaything into a precise training tool, capable of sharpening technique, exposing mistakes, and elevating riding skills in ways big bikes sometimes can’t.
He showed us that the bike isn’t what defines the quality of the training—the mindset is. Where an amateur sees a limitation, a professional sees an opportunity. Masiá uses the mini GP not to entertain himself, but to refine his fundamentals: body position, corner entry, braking precision, throttle control. On a small bike, every mistake becomes clearer, every skill becomes cleaner, and every habit—good or bad—shows itself immediately.
This is the difference between a fast rider and a true professional.
It’s not just speed. It’s the ability to take anything— even a “toy”—and extract value from it. It’s the discipline to turn fun into focus, and simplicity into progress.
Training with Masiá reminded us that improvement doesn’t depend on the size of the bike, but on the size of your approach.
