My 13 years old have the 24R. It's a great bike, but can be a bit handful for a 8 years old in my opinion. I'd go with the 20, or 16 depending on his height. That's the problem with children, they grow up fast, requiring constant change of gear (helmets, boots) and bikes...

Wow, I can easily see it happens to me on map 4. Since trail riding (opposed to MX) consist of different terrain types changing rapidly (rocks, roots, sand, mud, loose stones...), too much rear wheel power can cause wheel slide easily. The throttle hand should be very precise

Riding trails on map 4 is not a common practice. Brutal power and acceleration on the MX/EX as it is.

14 years old and riding an Alta. That's impressive! We rode for about 3 hours on the stock battery, and had some left. However, as can be seen in the video, it was slow technical ride. The kind that does not waste much energy

Thank you sir

My son got an Oset 24R for his 13th birthday (Bar Mitzva). We had the best time riding enduro today together. the Oset & Alta played along nicely, and it was obvious that things that I learn in 3 weeks, he gets in 3 minutes. this is his 2nd ride ever on a dirt bike. He did really great.

What about the EM Escape is not suitable for your kind of riding? Not nimble enough? can not attack obstacles well enough? Lack of torque?

I live in Israel and have a Multitool installed and operational, so if someone needs help in this side of the world... (We have 6 Altas in Israel).

Here is my attempt with the Insta360. Found it to be a nice gimmick, not more than that.

I love my Alta, but willing to trade some of its weight (it's a heavy bike) for less range & power. The Pohlbock is interesting for these reasons. Until its licenced in the US, I can not have it imported though. In addition, it seems intented towards motocross. How does it handle on the trails...

What kind of riding do you do?

Honestly, this is the best Storm Bee video I have seen -

I followed a forum's member (VINSANITY) idea of modifying the throttle grip to half. this modification should eliminate one of the main problems I had with the Redshift - Whiskey throttle. since there is no clutch to cut the throttle when needed, and no gear to keep the power contained, I found...

Thanks, that's the information I needed.

Looks like I may need stiffer springs for my weight (WP 4cs, 2018 stock EX). I weigh 93 kg (203 pounds) without gear, and ride enduro only. Anyone knows the stock spring rate?

I use the Fastway pegs. They have adjustable height. Put them in the lower position.

My friend just got his new 2021 Energica Eva. Quite a machine. He upgraded to Ohlins suspensions (stock is Marzzoci), and few other upgrades. Everything on the bike screams high quality, quite a machine. Having said that, the feature I like the most is its reverse mode, brilliant.

Very nice. Since all the good colors were taken Hond -red Kawa - green KTM - orange Yamaha - blue Husky - white Sherco - purple And so on... I think Alta should have gone with black / grey at the time. But no one asked me 😉

We mostly ride very technical terrain, rocks and some trial type obstacles. Riding last few hours easily. This is how off road guys get such long periods of time on their Altas. Racing will definately chew up the battery much faster.

This is exactly my experience. Bike will last quite a while in hard enduro conditions. For faster, more flowy enduro tracks, range will decrease. I Don't see how map 4 can be used for enduro races. It's more intended for Motocross tracks, in my opinion. KTM Freeride-e is even worse (range...
