    General The "Big 6" will catch up... maybe in 4-5 years

    In the Stark release, it was stated that 2 people could swap a Stark battery in 1 minute with 3 bolts and 1 tool. I look forward to you putting the Stark to the torture test! I shared this at Thumpertalk electric also.

    Media Review Media Week in Spain - Electric Cycle Rider

    in the Rust review, his bike slowed down at 17% battery, where they had been set. It was mentioned that 10% is the lowest it should ever go. The software is there to protect the battery, just like every E car or hybrid on the road.

    Media Review Media Week in Spain - Electric Cycle Rider

    Just a guess, but with only 5 pre production prototypes available, ruining even 1 by running it too low is a problem. Being conservative.

    General 15:50 Gear Ratio on EXR

    A 12t is a lower ratio than a 13, your top speed would normally go down.

    Anyone Using 16:53 Gear Ratio

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

    General 15:50 Gear Ratio on EXR

    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...

    Stark Varg dealer in CO and central U.S.

    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...

    General 15:50 Gear Ratio on EXR

    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...

    Anyone Using 16:53 Gear Ratio

    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...

    General 15:50 Gear Ratio on EXR

    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.

    Storm Bee

    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...

    Storm Bee

    $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...
