When people see the Ohvale GP-2s for the first time, they often assume it’s just a hobby. They see the small wheels and think it’s a novelty.
But MiniSBK and FIM MotoMini Canada aren't just about tiny bikes; they are a deliberate, structured stepping stone.
If you look at the kids running up front in the Canadian Superbike Championship (CSBK) right now—especially in the amateur and lightweight sportbike classes—so many of them started exactly where Jäger is. They started on small wheels, learning racecraft and close-quarters battling before they ever threw a leg over a full-sized Yamaha R3 or Kawasaki Ninja 400.
The small bikes force a rider to be perfect. Because you don't have 100 horsepower to mask your mistakes, if you mess up a corner exit on an Ohvale 190, you lose three positions.
It is the most proven development system we have in Canada. By the time these kids transition to the big tracks on big bikes, they already know how to draft, how to pass on the brakes, and how to handle the pressure of a national grid. The pathway works.
