Great catch! @Judaslefourbe ,can you confirm the only difference in the wheelbase is the smaller sprocket?

Looks great! The other thing I noticed is the wheelbase grew longer, one thing I was hoping wouldn't get bigger. It seems it has the same rake and offset as the MXR, anyone have any idea why it's longer?

I wonder if the way the torque comes on with these bikes has something to do with it. Id be curious to see what the other guys rear tires looked like when they were done.

If you have a truck or van, rolling a 240v generator out is no big deal. But for those of us with out one, it's not so easy. This is my setup, it's a hitch mount on our SUV. I'm a young in shape guy and I'm not able to load a 150lb generator very easy by myself.

It's not 220v, it's essentially a 30amp 120v plug as I understand it. I'd just really like a 240v inverter, dealing with a full size generator just isn't practical.

Yes, these are the Generac ones I’ve been watching. https://www.electricgeneratorsdirect.com/Generac-EGD-GENERAC2000KIT-Portable-Generator/p67906.html?gclid=Cj0KCQjw0a7YBRDnARIsAJgsF3O2RKyUFSs-9jpj5d6643Y4V352wE9hNX2-yiSnL9gaz4bNP7tB5ZcaAoCvEALw_wcB I haven’t bought my Alta yet and still have...

I didn’t want to ask either, but when I saw those I starting looking for them too. Looks like he has a parallel setup for them as well.

Does anyone know for sure if the other bike was Ty Tremaines?

It was always secured, I was just pointing out it appeared to be on Alta's website and just hadn't gone "live" yet. I read the articles months ago suggesting the EXR and SMR, but never saw anything from Alta confirming anything. I was posting from my iPad and perhaps should have been more clear.

Well it seems the EXR will be announced soon(Erzberg). I googled this today and this came up. If you click on the link it brings you to a secure Alta page. It looks like more of a woods weapon MXR than a street legal version EX.

Alta's presence on this forum is great, big thanks to Judas for taking the time to answer our questions.

To be fair, perhaps we should give Alta some time to iron everything out themselves before they give so much control to the end user. I fully agree with everything you're saying, but the tone of your post could be taken the wrong way. If I was Alta, a front runner in this technology that could...

Outstanding! How much of an effect did it have on charge time?

Its great to hear about the strong sales, hopefully it just continues with no slowing down. I'm sure this is on the back burner, but there was talk a while ago that the SM on board chargers would be able to charge with 240v with a firmware update. Is there any progress on this or update?

Haha, I pulled up that exact video after reading Marks post.

Wow. Thank you Mark for taking the time to write that. I, like alot of others I'm sure are new to EVs, your knowledge on this is very helpful.

Thank you sir!

Another random question, does anyone know if the MX plastics will fit on the MXR?

"Apart from the chargers, the SM & MXR are completely different. What type of riding are you planning to do?" I copied this from the other thread to keep things together. I'm planning to use the Alta as a play bike of sorts. But mostly would be set up for single track very close to home, so I'm...

Thank you gentlemen, I’m still in the beginning stages of thinking everything through. My concern with the MXR is portable charging. Looking at generators, nothing that is 240v capable is very portable and would almost need to use a smaller 120v generator inverter at times for traveling. I...
