picking up the Alta after dropping it in a rocky hill climb, makes me think about upgrading to a lighter enduro machine. So yes, the weight is a factor, other than that, the bike is perfect. The Varg is not an improvement in this department. Interesting about the Alta being more front heavy...

Great report, and pretty much sums it all. The Varg is basically a modern high end racing machine. The Alta is more comfortable also for the recreational rider (especially the EX EXR models with their floaty cadillac suspension). I like the tweaking possibilities of the Varg's different...

I remember trying the Erzberg fw on my EX. Did not like the "hill hold" mode as it prevented any subtle rearward motion, causing few nasty falls. Could not use "tractor mode" for some reason (perhaps it does not work on EX / EXR models?). Anyone tried it and can report back? The Varg have its...

Interesting. Sounds like the Varg is aimed towards the pro rider, while the Alta is more friendly and comfortable. How about its weight? Feels much different, in air and on the ground?

Hey Brian, Do you get to ride your Alta still, or not at all since you got the Varg? I wonder how the Alta feels to Varg's veterans. I still love the bike (except for its weight which Varg did not improve much).

Excellent riding! I use the Alta Redshift for hard enduro. Works very well, except when I have to lift the bike, than I feel its weight.

yeah, sound like the exact same problem. probably not very common, as I haven't heard anyone else having it beside us.

You are experiencing the exact same problem? Which Redshift model?

Great idea, but after examining the Alta, there doesn't seem to be a good place to mount the rubber stopper. It should mount where the "missing" air box is..

I would love to add Steg Pegz to my Alta Redshift. You had to drill the plastics? Aren't the Steg Pegz specific to each bike's brand?

I really hope this is a prototype. It can not be used for enduro riding with these exposed cooling tubes, they'll be crushed by a rock sooner than later.

Just out of curiosity, did you repair the BCU?

This is exactly what I thought the UB will be before we tested it. In real life we were pleasantly surprised. Perhaps the fact that my son weighs 65 kg helps with range and power. Our riding is strictly on rocky terrain, climbs, rocks and rocks edges. Avg speed is probably 5-10 mph. I suppose...

I’ve been riding the Alta Redshift for 6 years, a very powerful and high-quality electric motorcycle. Enduro rider only. my son (16) joined me with his new Soron Ultra-B... Here's my summary: For off-road riding with the Suron, we replaced the original 18-inch rear wheel (We got the R model...

great video with some insights from a very good rider. very interesting bike.

For my hard enduro type riding, I would be willing to pay additional fee for a smaller and lighter battery. 3 hours of my type of riding deplete about 50% battery (slow gnarly terrain). Perhaps make a lighter hard enduro version, and heavier mx /trail version with longer range.

Thanks, so in Redshift & Varg weight territory. Hope you'll be able to shave some of its weight. That is the sole and only complaint I have for my Redshift ( riding hard enduro).

Quite a big battery. Could not find the most Important piece of information for me - its weight.

On paper, It's exactly what I am after - a lightweight Redshift. I doubt, however, its quality.
