    Motor kit For balance bike

    Someone, please post a link to this bike. The MONDRAKER BIKES US website doesn't seem to have it, and Google search results give errors. Usually, for simple systems, more voltage would give more acceleration. Try a higher-voltage battery.

    I'd agree that a 2.8 kWh battery won't last 30 minutes in racing conditions, but it might last about 10-15 minutes, which is a typical MX practice session or a short local race. It should also last about an hour of leisurely riding. It appears that they are aiming to be an American Surron...

    I contacted Colin Godby, the CEO of Dust Moto. He clarified some of the questions. The battery will be swappable. It is already swappable in their Alpha prototype. The final suspension is TBD, possibly custom-made. The current components, the fork from a KTM 85SX (WP), and the rear shock...

    Some folks believe that SuperMinis are more fun. But yeah, what we really need is an electric 125cc.

    Dust Moto

    They are not trying to be a better Surron. If they are smart, they would be trying to imitate the 125cc riding experience. This bike should be able to jump and land just like any full-size dirt bike without bottoming or breaking the frame. But with the KTM Freeride WP suspension, I think they...

    Gowow Ori (Cake Clone)

    I am sure they tried. But the Redshift is not cheap to copy.

    I did some googling. They are located in Bend, OR. The founders are pretty legit with good industry experience. They are also extremely transparent about what they are doing and why. Lots of interesting stuff if you scroll down on their main page. Also, here is a good personal post from the...

    Media Review AJ Catanzaro - Best bike I have ever ridden 9.9/10

    It is strange that AJ got arm pump. Shouldn't he be riding one-handed??? :ROFLMAO:

    Battery is dying so fast...

    I used to ride four 10-minute sessions at my local MX tracks on each of my two Altas. Recently, it has been only three sessions on each. I like to tell myself that these are not the batteries getting a shorter range but me becoming faster. In my defense, I noticed that I keep the throttle pinned...

    Wing Seats

    I went to my third AJ Catanzaro class a couple of weeks ago at Cahuilla Creek Raceway in SoCal. We had another one-handed riding session, which was cool. AJ says that if you are having difficulty riding one-handed, you are doing something wrong. He claims he can jump any jump one-handed. You...

    Battery Build

    Yes, for the DIY market cost is also a big factor. That's not necessarily true. You can keep the BMS hooked up to the battery at all times but use it for charging only. This way you will retain all the battery monitoring and balancing. In fact, you can have the BMS power not the motor but just...
