8KW Electric Dirt Bike Shootout! (Talaria MX4, Falcon M, E-Ride Pro SS)

With a large amount of new bikes coming to market we are excited to test and put some head to head! In this scenario we targeted the 8KW bike's currently on the market and rode them back to back between three different riders with three different skill sets.

This really needs some annotation to point which bike is being talked about in any given sentence rather than constant references to "this one" or "that one."

[@ChargedCycleWorks]

If you stay tuned to the end we go in depth about each individual bike

[@swhalstead]

And why is there a 12kw bike in the mix

[@SurronSlouch]

@@swhalstead the “12KW” is for a very short period and it’s nothing like a 12KW on a modded bike. It’s the Walmart 12KW feeling lol.

​@@SurronSlouchyou're probably just sad you spent 4k more to mod a suron that has the same performance as a stock eride. 😂

[@waynewigger9904]

Any mention of the 72v out the box ?. Sting 60v I know I prefer the sting its like a proper bike the other things just like the light bee a TOY

[@Mr316jon316]

“The esport 🥴😂” cool video

[@benzanoth3802]

Another great video boys! Keep up the good work!

[@AndrewDavis-rr9lt]

This is sick!!!

[@francoislepine2643]

Great video

[@tygub3556]

Good vid Brett!

[@BlaiseFPV]

Great video, love the comparison. I think you should add overlays to whos talking and on what bike during the video. The interviews at the end spoke about everyone's opinions but it was hard to keep track of who the POV was and what bike they were on. Gonna pick up an E-Ride Pro SS soon and I'm more stoked now!

[@ChargedCycleWorks]

Thanks for the feedback!

[@Mountainslayerz]

Nice! I still need to ride the Falcon, but the E-Ride Pro SS is awesome!

[@shockadellick]

The belt drive is annoying for street use and i wouldn't trust it outside a park.

[@BOSAUSOKU]

And the E-Ride pro ss wins again..I have watched near every comparison video on the internet and the E-Ride pro ss wins every time..That we be the bike i order..

[@allenwind6412]

Sweet. Just ordered my e ride pro ss and a lot of parts from charged cycle works, talariaboys and electric cycle works and kke. Going to be sick. Now just need to get a discount on some forks. Wink wink.

[@Suhlss]

Damn what all did you order?

[@allenwind6412]

A couple thousand $$$$ in parts. 😁

[@Suhlss]

@@allenwind6412 thats wild, the SS is already 5k 😬. And to upgrade without even riding it first.. but hey you about to have a lot of fun.

[@allenwind6412]

I never keep anything stock 🤘

[@mr2981]

Favorite snack, peanuts. Lots of peanuts.

[@Bengy22]

When will you get to test out the Eride Pro SS Super? 16kw sounds pretty good

[@kidairborne291]

It will be called e ride pro as plus

[@Shreddylife]

Is this the first production Eride Pro SS or the 2.0 that has a more upgrades from the Factory?

[@ChargedCycleWorks]

This is the 2.0

[@Shreddylife]

@@ChargedCycleWorks right on 🤙

[@NicholasJonesVideography]

what were all the cables you were snipping off? I know the kickstand sensor but what did you snip at the brake levers?

[@devinkyle47]

Sensors that will keep you from applying the throttle and brakes at the same time

[@NicholasJonesVideography]

@@devinkyle47 very interesting. And nice to know🤙🏼

[@ChargedCycleWorks]

kickstand and brake sensors, they are great safety features for new riders, but most advanced riders find that these sensors are not only annoying for a skilled rider, but can also be dangerous by cutting power when you don't want to. So based on your skill level use your judgement on if these sensors are providing a benefit or a problem for you.

[@LarryRichelli]

A couple of videos on YOutube are saying they had problems with the E-Ride would overheat and turn off.

[@JustinBleeder]

what is all that rattling on the E Ride Pro??

[@ChargedCycleWorks]

Battery and chain guide, both things that can easily be corrected

[@Nobodyatall007]

I want the e ride pro ss so bad

[@clstafford]

saying a bike is down on power as a negative attribute when it’s literally down on power compared to the 72v bikes had me a bit perplexed. Put a 72 in the talaria then re test, otherwise this video doesn’t really hold any weight for me. the handling characteristics you touched on will all be dramatically affected by that kind of power increase. . Anyone who rides one of these bikes know the 72vs60 is not an even comparison.

[@jettedson8410]

these are the top stock bikes. putting a 72v in a talaria would need an aftermarket controller, and could run 25kw. that isn't really a good comparison especially since it would be a 6500$ build compared to the others

[@JasonNosajasoNosaj]

Beautiful location? Whee in Ut, Az is it?

[@ChargedCycleWorks]

Beautiful Southern Utah near St. George :)

[@shredmas]

Can I just clip my kickstand sensor wire on my Ultra Bee?

[@tygub3556]

Yes you can.

[@alvaroobregon4596]

195lb ?

[@shockadellick]

The belt drives R annoying for street use and i wouldn't trust it outside a park.

[@adamm3492]

Ok so the black bike is the best one great. How bout you kids put stickers on the handlebars so we what bike our on. Dang

[@ChargedCycleWorks]

HAHA, yes, we agree that was a miss by us, we'll do better next time making sure you know which bike is being referenced.

[@metalofthedeath]

How do you not know that you have to reroute the front brake cable to the inside of the fork

[@ChargedCycleWorks]

The talaria comes with it routed on the outside. It’s a mistake by the manufacturer. We purely pulled the bikes out of the boxes and rode them. Yes. Cable routing goes inside of the fork. It’s something we always preach and something many talaria owners don’t know

[@clu801]

Nice vid! where is this spot? Can you give me the latitude/longitude?

[@ChargedCycleWorks]

Check out the Toquerville Twister trail in southern Utah, it's unreal! But be careful of your battery range if you do the full loop.

[@metalofthedeath]

The talarias battery is actually better than the falcons

[@SurronSlouch]

Oh man, I couldn’t imagine trying to ride at 8KW. I would be so bummed every time I rip the throttle from what I’m used to lol 20KW at 700phase amp ruined me

I like how the guy who made this video put his lil icon on all the comments except yours cause no gives a fk about your Internet flex. 😂

[@SurronSlouch]

I’m sorry.. did you need some attention or something?

​@@SurronSlouch I'm not the one who cried first kiddo

[@Shreddylife]

I couldn't imagine buying a Surron now a days. The Eride pro SS is just a better platform all around and you can always upgrade it like you did to make it faster...

[@SurronSlouch]

@@Shreddylife it will never be the same as a modded Surron. If I was in the market today, I would not buy a Surron, I would buy an Eride pro SS 2.0.

[@grantbowen5047]

These bikes still aren't ready for prime time, especially not stock. Still in the "toy" category. I think eventually, these companies will figure out what people really want. Until they come stock with 18/21 wheels, you know they aren't serious. Fanboys, react here........

[@ChargedCycleWorks]

They are definitely play bikes, not serious racing machines. That is what makes them fun but it would be nice to see these manufactures build race ready machines!

[@Shreddylife]

Its 140lbs and has almost as much power as a 125cc dirtbike with way more torque. They are fun as hell. I do agree adding a 21" front wheel and some fatter rear tires do help a lot with handling though.
