ECR website had a short bit on the CF Moto bike. Didnt get much further than the 1st line of specs ; Weight: 125 kg (approx. 276 lbs)

Sadly, release of these new EV machines might not happen anytime soon given the power sports business landscape in free-fall currently. & why is it that only Surron has figured out that these LH rear brake configurations really need a dual piston caliper to perform adequately ?

I have an Ultra Bee that I've pretty heavily modified the suspension & ergonomics on to be (mostly) suitable for mid-west single track riding. .. it's still too short but thats a whole other conversation. The light weight & instant response are truly terrific on the right type of terrain ...

Restricting max HP almost makes some kind of sense , although .. is displacement restricted in Super enduro for ICE bikes ? Is a 65 HP 450 legal to run ? But a minimum weight of 270 LBS to be able to compete .. Pure cowardice on the part of the FIM for essentially putting their collective...

Maybe just procure a Surron & be able to test the concept whenever / however you'd like ? They are quite inexpensive typically & the Light Bee & Ultra Bee are likely the largest market of prospective customers, at least currently.

The 60HP Varg I test rode really needed to be at 50 HP or thereabouts to be able to reliably & instantly loft the front over things similar as an ICE bike with a clutch. It was nicer to ride at around 40-45 HP, but just didn't have quite enough pop to stand the bike up at a moments notice at...

Early on I had an email conversation going with an EV powertrain engineer & expressed the same thought of reducing battery mass for a lower OA weight & reduced range. I believe the Varg battery is about 77 lbs, a 30 % mass reduction would likely be about 18-20 lbs lighter as some of that 77 is...

How so ?. What attributes do you think elevates it above a 250/300 xcw ? I had a Varg on order from day one & was able to test ride it prior to delivery, I felt that there were two characteristics of the machine that for me at least were deal breakers for the type of slow-ish single track we...

This makes sense & jives with several comments from Varg owners about having to run in a higher power mode than they'd prefer on single track in order to get the kind of quick response & power to lift the front reliably. I have noticed on some of the videos on the E-motion bikes that the...

Congratulations on the continuing forward momentum of the product. A question regarding the kind-of-a-clutch / re-gen thing ; does the system have the ability to RELEASE stored energy as with a traditional mechanical clutch ? I find that when riding my electric & I need to lighten the front...

Given your mission parameters & operating conditions , a tracked electric would seem about the only viable option. On a conventional round wheel bike, those narrow-ish rolling wheels wont perform well even if fitted with studs when pulling a payload, it'll want to dig down more than forward...

Electric bikes & their lithium ion batteries dont like cold. Wrong tool entirely. Yikes ! You'd do better to look at other successful arctic expeditions & see what type of equipment has proved worthy in those conditions. As you're surely aware ; your life may depend on the equipment choices...

Maybe not a Cake bike .. Link ; uh-oh

The premise is great & the execution surely looks the part ! A competent lightweight that doesn't need thousands of $$ in power & suspension upgrades. Yes please. I'd wonder what kind of range can be expected from a 39Ah battery with a 15Kw nom / 25Kw peak output ? I have a 200lb Ultra...

It's interesting ; for most single track trails Varg needs to be less motorbike / Ultra needs to be more motorbike. I bought an Ultra & have been developing the chassis ( throwing $$ at it ) for a couple months, it needs several critical mods / parts to feel competent & thus fun on the trail. I...

When one thinks of electric cars, which name comes to mind ? Chevy Volt ?, Ford Escape -E ?, Audi E Iron ? Nope .. it's Tesla. Why ? because they were 1st to have a viable product that consumers actually wanted to purchase. I think the big manufacturers are lobbying hard to throw up...

It's one of these ;

Thanks, very well .. so it shall be. Looks like this ;

Alta throttle, tried it for one ride on my Ultra Bee. Liked the stock Surron throttle better for it's lighter spring. 100 shipped in cont US.

FIM = spineless hypocrites. All these sanctioning bodies shout from the hilltops about 'growing the sport' .. & then they cave under the least bit of pressure & exclude one of the very things that offer new opportunities for more participation & additional venues. Isn't that the definition of...
