First off congratulations to stark for getting a bike out there
now for the review
The delivery process from stark is diabolical
The phone and fuzzy logic is annoying at best
The tubes are nothing but a joke
The brakes are not up to the job (blued the discs first high speed run on the farmgate section )
stark varg 1 54 .7 surron ultra bee 1 57.3
The bike is 10kgs too heavy at least (my main problem with the bike)
The chassis feels like i am riding a 20 year old bike (weight again)
The bike is unusable for mx recharging between practice and races
It does not get through whoops or over big jumps that well either
Needs a swappable battery
The stark has all the advantages of being electric
I love hand operated back brakes
Noise: lack of it
Low maintenance
Pretty much just jump on and ride it (if it doesn't have a flat tyre or stop when there's a software issue)
All in all I think this bike would be better suited to slower cross country type riding
but i wouldn't want to have to pick it up when tired
