They're just using a standard QS138 70H V3 with their own fluid for cooling. Nothing unique there. However the frame does not look familiar, so that might be something proprietary. Regardless, for that price, either do your own conversion (which is basically what this bike is), or just buy a Stark. Happy to see other companies trying, but today you either have to come in with something completely different or straight up more affordable in order to set yourself apart.

You're kidding, right? If this bike had been out when I bought my Varg, I probably wouldn't be on this forum right now.

Agreed on the full size bike.
You can buy a used Stark that's still in 1 year warranty (same as this) for that price. And the weight looks nice, but 4kWh and 41HP is only suitable for hardpack leisure MX riding. The battery being a quick swap is nice, but it being 4kWh low voltage one also means you will have to. If a 6.5kWh holds for about 30-45 minutes this won't do half of that (gross-nett gap and not draining to 0%). You might just get 15-25 minutes. After wich you have to swapp the battery, wich i'm pretty sure is not incluided in the price.
Also the low voltage battery will run quite high currentes to get 41HP, overheating will probably be an issue.

Add to that this runs FastAce suspension, wich Zero did too and now offers ZERO support for... Not comparable to Starks KYB that are top of the line and itterations have been on the market for decades at this point. It also doesn't run a linkage, do you think a budget suspension brand runs a proper PDS system?

I feel that in MX it will be a ''wives bike'' or an ''introduction bike''. The bike that ''tag along riders'' ride for it being cheap and simple to run and ride. And lets be honest, there is nothing wrong with that! Just get your aims right.

Their 50-65-85 line-up is a different story though. There are no real big competitors at the moment for the 85 class. Kids grow out of the 50/65 offered by the market and have to move to 85cc ICE's.

I do wish them best of luck though, they do sound like a passionate bunch, and passion always deserves a chance!

I've read the datasheet: 78 V, so they should have chosen their name better: HVR stands for High Voltage Racing.

One advantage of a bike like this compared to a conversion is that it has been done neatly from people who presumably have experience; the company may be new (I don't know) but the employees probably have expertise. I wouldn't rely much on my electrical connections and my waterproofing abilities, while probably they know better how to do certain things.

The little known suspensions brand and their proprietary motor and battery look like a disadvantage for the less support compared to more common components, especially if either gets discontinued.
 
And DIY conversions are just that DIY, wich means building the thing. And i'm pretty sure it's more profitable to do some overtime at work than to buy a used bike and covert it with expensive E components that don't actually fit easily.
Buying something like this with a year of warranty is a cheaper and more secure deal.

The suspension brand is used on more budget bikes. For example Mash uses it and Zero used to. However they are most known for MTB suspension wich is something completely different.
And after stopping a production of some unit they also stop building spare parts. For my Zero i have to find universal fork seals on AliExpress...

I did look if they have dealer near me (since i live quite close to Germany) so i could do a testride for my little Youtube channel. Sadly that corner of Germany is not covered by their dealer network. The one dealer in the Netherlands is a rental company that does E MX rentals on a simple track (like karting) on the other side of the country. They however only have the small ones on track.
So looks like i won't be testing one.
 
I was a tad negative about MX use, but where i can see this kind of bikes shine is in Hard Enduro. Lightweight, more than powerfull enough and battery capacity doesn't really matter. I know a lott of Germans go to places like Bilstain (a rocky gnarly Hard Enduro park).

I have emailed them about pricing and listing on their parts since there is nothing to find on their website. If that battery is sub €1000 it is a pretty good deal, if we're talking €4000 it's a lott worse.
