I like this bike, seems well thought out.





With the same platform, they've managed to create four models, with the same chassis, motor, and battery.



The battery has a design very similar to Stark's, it appears to be made of magnesium as well and has the same passive heat dissipation lines.



12.9 kWh at 360V is quite decent for a 200 kg vehicle. It has an integrated 6.6 kW charger, but they claim it charges to 80% in 15 minutes, which is impossible at 6.6 kWh, it's not fast enough. I cant understand that


I think this is the inverter, yet another motorcycle that opts to install the inverter separately from the engine like Yamaha with the YE-01
Or maybe the inverter is the silver box on top of the battery althought that should be the charging plug





The smartphone app connectivity looks interesting, but I hope it also has an integrated display. I like the "battery health" option, and it also shows the tire pressure, nice.



Overall, it's very good. With 94 hp, it has to be a beast, the scrambler model will possibly be the most powerful to date.

€16,900 seems competitive to me, it could easily compete with Stark when they release road models.

Looks good, specs seem nice. I think i'm in danger of having multiple bikes again. I'm looking forward to the release of the Royal Enfield Himalayan (Him-E). Looks like we are about to get a whole range of great bikes competing for market share.

Hero displayed a couple of electric bikes at EICMA.
I can't find any details right now.

thats the one with Stark drivetrain and battery?



that bike should be very heavy, i think i prefer lighter models

wow thats nice, the market is growing... I've noticed there are more new manufacturers of electric motorcycles than combustion... it seems to be a world with more potential for innovation. I see a lot of motivation.

will be nice to see Stark at ICMA 2026 for the first time maybe revealing the ÄLG and maybe 1 or 2 more models

These BBMs look interesting.
Also, there must be something in the water here, as they are also a Spanish company (Bilbao).

I'm a fan of the overall looks (probably because they started with building customs) and the fact that they don't "look" electric (huge reason I went for the EX).

WOW i think we need to make another thread for HERO, the MX model is very beautiful at first sight... carbon fiber frame, they choose for swapable batteries and i dont know more specs but that got me thinking the max hp will be around 45

Also i like the idea of the children's motorcycle where the suspension is raised as they grow. MINUTE 22:46

I like that BBM Hero, from what we can see.

I guess that the inverter is indeed that part that you have indicated with an arrow and it seems to me that it's the only thing connected to the radiator. I would have expected the motor and the battery to be liquid cooled as well.
The rear shock looks like one of those that achieve progression via a certain tilt angle instead of linkages, like the Ducati Scrambler 800 for example. That shock also doesn't have an external nitrogen canister; probably the nitrogen is inside it.

Here it is.
The idea is awesome, since one of the problem, if not the main one, of motorsports is their low feasibility and the consequent frustration of many children who are not allowed to practice them; this is IMO the right mindset to solve it. Surely it is to be proven how sturdy that system can be.
Unfortunately, the specs are disappointing, since as you can see in that website the performance can be software limited via app but even when set at maximum they are really low. I would personally allow a 7 years old child to have more than 500 W peak power, at least tenfold more.
