    Sur Ron Ultra Bee

    I have changed my tune and agree with you. After buying a UB and putting on the 21/18" wheels and gummy tires, playing with the throttle sensitivity settings and suspension settings, I'm really liking it, especially for the tight single track. My only issue is that it is not full sized, more...

    New bike day!!! First customer delivery worldwide!

    Seriously! Lol. I may have to weight for Varg 2.0 with a quick change, lighter, battery pack. Fiddling around with the sub 200 lb Sur Ron Ultra Bee that I just got has me really wanting a next gen, but lighter, Alta. And thanks for all the great info Bryan, the Varg looks killer, can't wait...

    Congratulations Bryan! Very cool. Looking forward to learning more about the Varg.

    Sur Ron Ultra Bee

    The weight makes it self known in the tighter gnarly terrain when braking, especially when trying to brake extremely quickly, then turning. Even though the bike feels light once you get moving, you are still trying to slow down and turn 260+ lbs of bike, especially when turning it in extremely...

    That's a bummer. My e-mtn bike from Luna Cycles arrived from some fly by night delivery service with holes in the box, it appeared the bike was not damaged from the holes so I accepted delivery. Upon unboxing, I discovered damage to the carbon fiber frame, a 1/2" or so shallow gouge in it, not...

    Sur Ron Ultra Bee

    I rec'd my Ultra Bee a couple of weeks ago, some observations of the bike in stock trim, factory default settings (keep in mind, and in fairness to the bike, I'm 6'5", 210 lbs, so even most full sized bikes feel small to me): I've been a bit underwhelmed by it during my few very short test...

    When my Sur Ron Ultra Bee was delivered recently by Fedex Freight, it came right on time as scheduled. The driver had it unloaded in no time and placed it on my driveway exactly where I wanted it. And the box was intact, no damage to the bike. I was pleasantly surprised by the whole affair, Lol...

    This guy feels the difference in weight between 126 kg and 85 kg dirt bikes is insignificant?! Lol. Wow. I'll stick with reviews from Tucker at ECR (and any other number of reviewers) thanks.

    I'm not trying to give you a hard time over Stark's business decisions, just pointing out that Stark had plenty of opportunities to update customers on the weight increase, which is a key spec of the bike. The fact that they told you not to disclose the weight of the bike just proves what I'm...

    Re the newly revealed weight of the Stark Varg, I'm feeling like I'm on the wrong end of a bait and switch if I can't get my deposit back. And before you all go "fine print, you signed up..." on me, consider the following. And consider doing what is right, not what is legally allowed, or what...

    Who has gone over 40 miles trail riding on their Alta? I can't recall a single instance being mentioned. Of course I could have easily missed a post about it. My MXR I milked, and I mean, absolutely milked 40 miles out of it twice when testing it. Map 1-2, 20-40 mph, pavement, barely cracking...

    260 lbs!!! Probably closer to 265. I am so bummed. And yes, you don't feel it once you get going, but you're still hauling 260+ lbs around when you need to stop, loading, unloading, moving around the garage, not to mention on single track. Will have to take a Varg for a test ride before I...

    Too late, we're running with it! Lol.

    Talaria

    I ordered an Ultra Bee for that exact scenario (replace wife with daughter and friends), hoping to get it in the next couple of weeks. Also ordered up a 21/18 wheel set, super excited to try it out on my favorite single track and ride it around while I wait for my Varg to get...

    Talaria

    Agreed. No comparison between a Stark Varg (or Alta) and a Talaria. And if I was considering a cheaper alternative to the Varg, I'd go with a Sur Ron Ultra Bee, which is basically what everyone that owns a modded Light Bee or Talaria is trying to make their bikes into. Ultra Bee is no...

    What is everyone's revised delivery dates?

    Yes, I'm aware of all that. Doesn't change the fact that they did a bait and switch on the early order peeps. Very poor way to conduct business IMO, especially with the pre-order delivery dates being pushed out a number of times. Adding insult to injury.

    What is everyone's revised delivery dates?

    I saw this in their email to customers on the waiting list today (and on their social media posts): "The first round of deliveries includes bikes for customers who pre-ordered the Stark VARG back in December 2021." I ordered my SV on 17 December, 2021, but their website still shows an...

    What is everyone's revised delivery dates?

    And hopefully they will increase their manufacturing build capacity quicker then they are publicly communicating in order to avoid embarrassing additional delivery date push outs (as well as negatively affecting new sales), resulting in the existing orders being delivered ahead of the current...

    That is AWESOME Bryan! Congrats. Any info on when it is going to be delivered to you? Are you having it shipped to your home? I saw this in their email to customers on the waiting list today (and on their social media posts): "The first round of deliveries includes bikes for customers...
