    Media Review Media Week in Spain - Electric Cycle Rider

    The battery is only 3.4% larger than our Alta’s, and say they gained 10% more efficiency out of the motor (which seems unlikely to me), you will only get another 4-5 miles or range in the same riding conditions. I hope the bike is awesome, but I think we need to be realistic with the increased...

    General Do you miss using a clutch?

    Logs, ditches, rocks, no problem - as long as there is some traction the Alta + throttle control is superior, but I ride year round here and get into some slick conditions (including ice/snow) that a "tractor mode" or a clutch would be very helpful for. I run a mousse bib and a hybrid gummy tire...

    General Do you miss using a clutch?

    I agree with @Trialsman. I ride tight technical woods in the PNW area, and on a nasty wet day the Alta does not go over slippery roots and rocks as well as a torquey 2-stroke with a clutch. One reason is the weight of the bike, but not having a clutch and only having one speed results the wheel...

    Sold 2017 Alta Redshift MX, $7,500

    Up for sale is my 2017 Alta Redshift MX. No codes or issues, 1045.6 miles, 100.9 hours (may go up as I continue to ride it). The hours on the display only show 38.3 because that’s when I upgraded the firmware to the newest version. It shows the total hours in multitool, but since this function...

    General 15:50 Gear Ratio on EXR

    I’m surprised your range is that low. I have a ‘17 mx with stock gearing that I trail ride with in the PNW tech single track terrain with elevation and average 28 miles riding at a quick but conservative pace (carry my speed through corners and don’t crack the throttle coming out, limit wheel...

    Anyone Using 16:53 Gear Ratio

    What is “chain torque reduction”? You have the given torque at the output shaft, which is multiplied through your selected gear ratio to give you a torque around the rear wheel axle. Sure a larger front sprocket has a tiny bit more rotational inertia, but larger sprockets also have less friction...

    Racing an alta mx in UK enduro series

    As long as you get a reasonable deal you could always sell it if you don’t like it, they hold their value well. I also have a KTM 300 xc, but really prefer riding my Alta if I don’t need as much range. I can do about 30 miles on the Alta if I’m trail riding for fun.

    Racing an alta mx in UK enduro series

    I did a hair scramble in the fall on my ‘17 MX. I rode fast in map 1, but was conservative with the throttle coming out of turns - I found it to be plenty of power for that style of racing (I’m about 195lbs with gear on, and for reference I am a middle of the pack A class enduro pace). The...

    Plug your coolant overflow hose

    I just finished plugging the cooling system on my 2017 MX and thought I'd share an easy way to do it. First purchase an M6x1.0mm face seal plug McMaster-Carr. Pinch the drain tube and remove the plug. Alternatively, you can buy a new one McMaster-Carr. Remove the seat, the coolant fill...
