We seem to have two camps here. A good healthy debate. I love odeds videos because I see him taking the same lines i would take. I can also predict where he is going to have an issue very accurately. He doesn't get stuck per say but I can predict where electric overspin is likely, even on...

Does the fact that each parallel group has only 4 members make this configuration less tolerant of a single weak cell within its ranks? Maybe the probability of having an actual cell failure is really low as long as it is robustly connected and protected. I haven't looked to see if that...

I know this is an old thread and maybe sergey isnt around anymore. This is the only thread I have found that has anybody hacking into the Alta communication system. I don't understand much of it but here is my summary. -Water got into the DCCP and blew a few components up. The fast charger...

"The range of the Stark VARG is similar to a full tank of gas on a 450. The bike can complete a full heat at MXGP intensity, or up to 6 hours of trail riding. A full recharge takes 1-2 hours. There is 6kWh of battery capacity, and our battery system is the most energy dense in the world. The...

I call it electric overspin. You can see it on Poskitt's videos, too if you know what to look for. If you can keep any sort of momentum and weighting of the back tire, electric bikes work great and many times are easier to climb stuff on. If the terrain or your suspension kills your...

As far as tracking rate of consumption, the bike is logging data from the BCU during operation. When using multitool to look at data, it offers a few data sets that you can look at graphically as time ticks away on the y-axis. Under the BCU tab, there are only 18 available checkboxes to select...

Is that a freeride on trellborgs?

This is great. As you can see, many questions and concerns are being raised about the battery. The specs you have listed sound great to me for a general offroad bike: kWh capacity, weight, charging rate and resistance to overheating. Waterproof rating has been described but can you say...

Some food for thought, most people have no idea of how much fuel they burn offroad. Thats great because you are riding without the burden of range anxiety for the most part. https://dirtrider.net/forums3/threads/4-stroke-vs-2-stroke-gas-mileage.62627/ Very imprecise but I assume this guy is...

I'm sure it a more advanced, higher output model but I'll bet the $100 Stark deposit that its made by Fukuta and/or was arrived at upon dissecting an Alta. The "designed from the ground up" claim is on shaky ground. The conjoined motor/ inverter structure in a cast, watercooled unit is also...

Here is another pressure washing code 37 Does anybody know how to reset code 37 Going back to the picture in post number two. You see the corrosion is on the edge of the battery module. That edge of cells is adjacent to the bottom battery seam on the right side of the bike. It also looks...

Yes the cell configuration and case is interesting. The Alta battery is like a four layer cake while the Stark battery is like a tortilla folded in half. If this is a major improvement, I can imagine reconfiguring Alta modules wouldn't be impossible and might have been a natural eventuality

I think there is a bunch of information we can pull out of the data logs that all of our bikes create every time they are ridden. We have the data but it just sits there. I'm going to start with diving into the rate of energy consumption during a specific "ride". A general question and area...

I agree with the zero traction struggle situations you describe. Those spots can quickly deplete any energy the rider has and ruin the ride. As for simple wheel spin, i think it varies. If you are just accelerating the mass of the wheel as you spin on a slimy rock, less energy is lost in...

I have heard claims that the Stark will go the distance with a pro in mxgp. Not sure if it was in the intro video...I have also seen numbers stated here by respected AOF members as to MX pro average power output of 14 or 15 kW (19 horsepower) 6kWh/14kW=.43 hours=26 minutes I looked up timing...

There are a lot of ways to look at this given more information about your specific rides and requirements but here's a place to start. You need a bike that has 40% more range than your old Alta to get from 100 minutes to 140 minutes ride time, your lowest benchmark. Does the Stark bike have...

Sorry, i let my mind wander to the nefarious side of the slippery slope that might be possible with a bike equipped with gps and wifi. The website doesnt say anything about actually cancelling your warranty if you drown it in a creek, for example. :)They will tout the features for improving...

interesting stuff in the fine print section of the website. GPS and wifi to track how you use it and how you are charging the battery. They will be able to see if you drown your bike in a river crossing and cancel your two year warranty:muutt: Or if you are trespassing, evading authority...

i could have sworn i noticed the address bar saying electric dirt riders or whatever you chose as the new website name. Am i wrong, i see the normal AOF address now? by the way, i'm interested to see just how much Alta DNA the stark bike has. I'm suspicious that it has a fair bit, which is...

It always surprises me to see bikes pop up out of the blue with no miles for sale. Maybe there are random stashes of module spares out there too. Modules wanted, dead or alive... ACM, DCCP, inverter
