In simple terms chain torque is the effect on the rear suspension under acceleration causing squat.

I get the everybody has different uses part, but this is an MX/SX bike 1st. It is rather unlikely that the range will encourage many scramble rider's to use it as a primary choice, although I expect with the advantage they will likely bring, many will try. (referring to Stark). On a 450, if you...

The direct to consumer business model has been initiated by the initial order process without any dealers. Seems odd to do that now? Will these bikes come with VIN#'s requiring them to be treated like motor vehicles with titles etc., or perhaps no VIN like bicycles? I understand the need for a...

Great feedback. So your ratio is 3.33 and the 15/46 was a 3.07. So a 14/43 or a 13/40 would get you the same ratio only with a small countershaft should get more "pop" to lift the front end due to chain torque changes. I haven't seen anyone go higher than you...

It would be easy to source a custom sprocket, if it would fit? We can run 17t on our little china pit bikes. Anyone got a picture of the swingarm clearance? I'd suggest the easier way is to go smaller in the back, when you go to big in the front you lose some of the wanted pop for seat bounces...

I have always thought this to be true. When you have all that instant torque from zero rpms.... Gear it to the moon and see what happens. I strongly suspect lap times and holeshots will continue to improve, as well as less power usage.

What role will a dealer have?

SUR-RON Storm – David Knight tries the new generation electric dirt bike

That throttle reacts like a light switch, no thanks.

Something weird going on with the specs of the Storm Bee. The prototype showed linkage and 48mm forks and a full alloy frame. Now if you go to the site and scroll down, you see 43mm WP Xplor, WP rear shock with a PDS no link setup, a combo steel and alloy frame, it looks like a Freeride clone...

$6690 delivered to U.S. from Alibaba. Who's up for an early adopter? No way all the questions are going to be answered upfront, this is a leap of faith. Based upon the Sur Ron's already out, and the videos of testing these will likely be reliable and fun and fast. The rear suspension is a...

Good post. KYB's at $7k is an attention getter. That is the demographic target right there on the bike. Man bun, tat's, beard, all black with tight jeans, backpack, black oversized watch etc. :D haven't seen any clear left side pictures. Does it have a rear brake pedal? The bikes in the video...

Someone just posted at VitalMX that creditors had received letters giving instructions on how to file for their debts. Liquidation mentioned. Not a good sign, it has been almost a month since the shutdown and no progress revealed.

A very interesting response to my post from Vitalmx Highflier 6231 Highflier https://p.vitalmx.com/photos/users/6231/avatar/c50_image_1440373636.jpg?1440373256 https://www.vitalmx.com/community/Highflier,6231/all 04/01/08 2 42 Posts: 44 Joined: 4/1/2008 Location: TX, USA 1 day...

If you were an investor, what would your business model be in buying Alta? Would it make more sense than doing your own startup? I see any investor needing lower costs, better volume capacity, and a continual stream of improvements. I would get out of Cali 1st, and that means a new HQ. I'd...

Get your credit card out Ben, grab that thing. There is going to be a black market for them....

I hope yours was shipped before the shut down? What have you got on you build list?
