Eddie Karlsson Stark VARG GoPro | Battle of Veklings Extreme Enduro | BELLON

Stark VARG Wins Extreme Enduro Race Battle of Veklings in Sweden!

[@Tibingi84]

The true battle here is between the Varg’s battery and the GoPro’s battery 😅. And a 1 minute uphill sprint is a race for itself 😂. What an awesome video 🤘🏻.

[@BELLON]

Thanks man 👊🏻😍

[@Lib-enduromedia]

Man and machine in perfect symmetry. Great footage 🙂

[@morganrejnas8544]

En fantastisk bra långfilm, drama och spänning och slutet lyckligt

[@llortllort1]

Bra kört, otroligt vilken teknik, dessutom! 30% batteri kvar efter de timmarna i svår terräng!

[@whoziee]

fan vad fet video. Tack så mycket❤

[@Nicklasback]

Eddie the king :) grymt material som vanligt !

[@tomas7367]

Stort grattis 👍 Du är grymt duktig 👏👏👏✊

[@tomaswestling7573]

Helt sjuk är du Eddie ! :) Grattis till vinsten också

[@genezizgbg]

Stort Grattis Eddie grymt kört

[@SaiTorrKalFas]

Men du behöver att montera ett tuta såklart :-)

[@jani58UTube]

Videon delad på 4 olika FB-grupper för Stark Varg. Hoppas det ger lite fler visningar som belöning för allt arbete du lägger ner på den här kanalen.

[@BELLON]

Tusen tack! 🙏🏻 Det hoppas jag också 😊

[@stefantornblom1555]

Hur upplevde du vikten på hojen, måste ha varit tungt när du körde fast?

[@mr1982davies]

nice riding and impressive the stark varg is not a light bike but sometimes i think that plays to its advantage gaining good traction in the technical stuff fair play

[@jimellis1810]

It’s only 7kg more than the wet weight of a CRF250R, and it can be dialed in with more power than a CRF450R.

[@1977bmf]

Fan, jag har tappat telefon, nått man inte hör så ofta i såna här sammanhang😂 Sjukt tempo dessutom 😳

[@BELLON]

😂

[@jani58UTube]

22:16 Här föll den!

[@2WheelDerness]

22:06 i was just thinking that the tablet will not live long, and next second display just dissapeared 😅😂

[@BELLON]

He was lucky to find it so fast again 😂

[@Francisco-Catarino]

Awesome video! How much engine braking was selected?

[@robertandersson2523]

Över två timmar! Jag hade orkat 5 min i det brötet.

[@cy730415]

What are tire makers and sizing frontsharks?

[@robertandersson2523]

Finns det möjlighet att justera svänghjulsvikt för att lugna ner sprättigheten?

[@jani58UTube]

"Virtual Flywheel Weight" i appen är något som Stark annonserade för två år sedan men som ännu inte har släppts. Kommer förhoppningsvis.

[@SamuelGunnestad]

Inte än, men dom säger det kommer

[@hardworkingswede]

Helt sjukt duktig Eddie är! Tack i vanlig ordning Bellon! 👍👍👍

[@Snirrealm]

Skulle vara kul o veta vilken mode han körde på?

[@erickboll]

48 hk läste jag i Stark-gruppen

[@2WheelDerness]

Nice ride, the lever of focuse is 🤌🤯

[@advswede]

Ser riktigt roligt ut. Hur länge håller en laddning ?

[@BELLON]

Eddie körde 2h20m och hade 30% batteri kvar när han gick i mål 💪🏼

[@advswede]

@@BELLON Det var inte dåligt :-) Tack för svaret.

[@weekendveterans]

Unreal ride….did you do the whole race on 1 charge?

[@BELLON]

He was riding 2 hours and 22 minutes on one charge, battery went from 80% to 30%.

[@weekendveterans]

That’s unreal 😊

[@californiamicke9527]

Ser riktigt jobbigt ut härifrån också 😐🙂🇸🇪👋👋

[@andrebodin2940]

grymt! Du skulle haft en STARKhorns tuta på den där😅

[@BELLON]

😂

[@DennisWall66]

I’m a 2 Stroke fan but to be honest that was pretty damn awesome on 1 battery! I just wish I could understand what he was saying. What the weight vs a CR250 and cost vs CR 250?

[@BELLON]

I think the weight as about the same, and they cost about 13-14.000 euros.

[@DennisWall66]

@@BELLON You pass those guy like a BOSS! I couldn’t understand them but it seems like everyone was pretty cool about trying to get out of the way for you.

[@BELLON]

It's always like that in extreme enduro, the riders help each other out, such a nice community! 😍 Thanks for watching! 💪🏼

[@BalkanGuyOnTwoWheels]

How long (kilometers) was the race?

[@BELLON]

One lap was 7km, Eddie did four laps, so 28 kilometers.

[@weekendveterans]

How long did the battery last?

[@jrnmoe3740]

he said 30% left at finish line.

[@jobruckner700]

what kind of mode (how much HP) runs Eddie? and how much batterie does he have at the end of the race? That would be nice to know 🙂

[@BELLON]

Read the comments, it's been discussed a couple of times already 😊

[@tobiasfransson3381]

Nu till den stora frågan, hade de gått ännu fortare igenom med någon av hans andra hojar eller är stark vargen snabbare igenom må tro🤔?

[@BELLON]

Jag tror att han hade haft det lättare med en vanlig hoj med koppling.

[@2WheelDerness]

How is the bike feeling? More heavy, or it is more exhausting to ride hard compared to 2stroke? I think they will be good choice when the range will be higher...

[@Erwin-P]

I own both a Stark and a Beta RR250 2 stroke. The Stark feels about 10kg lighter if you didn't read the specsheet you would even believe it. On a 16 min 2 stroke CrossCountry lap i beat myself with 45 seconds on the Stark. The greatest advantage is you don't need to worry about keeping the engine running so more focus on the riding. It's even more enjoyable, wich is the most important spec!

[@2WheelDerness]

@@Erwin-P nice, thanks for this... how about the longer trips? Do you feel worried that the range is not enough? I would limit the power to gain more range, but I feel 80km is still not reachable...I can carry extra gas and oil, but not the elecrricity 😅 anyhow, I think I wpuld love the Varg... to bad is quite expensive....

[@Erwin-P]

@@2WheelDerness Longer trips don't make sense, it doesn't have a license plate. In trafic a normal E bike does about 10km/kW. Slower riding would give 80km on the street or hard pack. But that's not the purpose of this bike. HP settings don't really do much since it's mostly how fast you ride, it's not like 80hp is a richer map. I mostly use it on MX tracks where i can do about 30-40 minutes. I'm yet to meet te first person who has ridden it and doesn't like how it rides. On my channel i have a guy who very much disliked everything E. After we switched a lap he had a hard time giving it back for his YZ250... And expensive, well for a toy is sure is, but compared to a KTM 450 it's a bargin...

[@2WheelDerness]

@@Erwin-P i mean longer offroad trips, we usualy ride in unknow areas, make trails, find new remote places, never on roads 😅

[@Erwin-P]

​@@2WheelDerness Well not really got the change to do that in the Netherlands. But i have the feeling it will fall short. It's a very focussed bike, really good at MX and maybe even better in short range Cross Country. But a longer day's it will fall short. The channel wich i believe is called ''every single sunday'' tested it the way i think you ride. Should take a look. On my channel i have a video on ''Funpark Meppen'' (not on the Stark but you see the terrain), Hillclimb and water testing of the Stark. Not anything spectacular, but that's the kind of stuff the bike will do 4'ish hours. I can see if i can get some distances from the phone. It sadly doesn't record everything since the bluetooth connection is far from perfect. If Stark Future is listening: I WANT A PROPER DASHBOARD!!! In a month or 2 i will be testing it in Bilstain hard enduro terrain. Let's see if the battery can last me a day.

[@HillBillyEnduro]

Grymt kört!! Kommer din video också upp bellon när du körde? Jag Stötte på dig i spåret ✊️

[@BELLON]

Yes, den kommer upp senare i veckan 😁 Kul, då kanske du är med i filmen beroende på hur långt in i racet det var 😊

[@HillBillyEnduro]

@@BELLON kul! Jag filmade också racet som ligger uppe på min kanal. Du är med 33.40 in. Dock typ bara ryggen på dig! Bra kämpat på den där sjuka banan ✊️

[@BELLON]

Haha jaha var det där, jag lutade hojen mot ett träd och gick ut i skogen och pissade 😂

[@HillBillyEnduro]

@@BELLON haha jaa de gjorde du 👍 kunde ja passa på o vila 😂

[@NiklasKedemark-hc2td]

Skulle gissa att Eddie saknade sin bästa vän ( kopplingen ) några gånger🤔Men som vanligt så fixade han jobbet galant 💪

[@farbrornilsson9709]

Kör själv varg och tvivlar att han saknar kopplingen. Är så grymt vrid från start så gasen funkar perfekt när man snabbt behöver få upp framhjulet i knivigare situationer.

[@Rdissss]

​@@farbrornilsson9709Han pratar om just kopplingen när han gått i mål.

[@BELLON]

@farbrornilsson9709 Han pratar ju om att han saknar koppling i videon.

[@NiklasKedemark-hc2td]

Det märks oxå när han ska smyga igång.

[@farbrornilsson9709]

@@BELLON Ser inte varför det skulle vara något att sakna. Kör själv Enduro med Varg, bra mycket bättre att ha en broms på styret än en koppling så man har båda benen fria. Koppling är overkill.

[@loganhamilton245]

What's this filmed on?

[@BELLON]

A camera 😂

[@JasonMitchellfun]

He’s saying 20% at the end? Looked like it was still in the green!

[@BELLON]

No he says 30%, he started the race with 80% 👊🏻

[@GeniusEnis]

En tuta som sa halåp skulle man ha på hojen 😁

[@BELLON]

Haha 😂

[@redpepper007]

but can it ride underwater? 😅

[@fabriziodemaria9035]

Potenza e coppia impostate?

[@BELLON]

?

[@hamish3766]

Funny that's the race is at a wind farm. Could have a 'fast charger' at each tower

[@BELLON]

Haha yes that would be something! 😂💪🏼

[@BJ-lw3vz]

Dags att installera en tuta som låter som en getabock:)

[@BELLON]

Hahaha bra idé! 😂

[@mxdave]

I am far from an ebike hater but I do think they should be in a class of their own. You see other riders cautious about stalling, shifting and clutch action. That alone is worth milliseconds and it all adds up.

[@BELLON]

I see what you mean, but I think not having a clutch made him slower. He probably would have been even faster on a 300 two stroke. He said afterwards that it's more difficult without a clutch.

[@mxdave]

@@BELLON Yup I get that. Electric and petrol has its place but I just don't think it's in the same class.

[@xlskins]

more than 2 hours of race and still have 27% battery left 💪 2:20:33

[@BELLON]

It's amazing! Also, he didn't start with 100%, he started with 80% 💪🏼

[@xlskins]

@@BELLON at startup it is possible to see 96% capacity 1:19

[@BELLON]

That's weird! When we rode from the paddock to the race start we checked the battery, and it said 80%. Maybe it showed wrong because it was so cold outside 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@jani58UTube]

De svåraste hindren är de andra förarna 😅

[@BELLON]

Haha ja så är det! Jag var en av dom 😂

[@ZonaEnduro]

Is this the first ever Hard Enduro race won by an electric dirt bike?

[@BELLON]

Yes I think so 😍

[@Madtigertv]

@@BELLON Were there other Pro's racing? Top Class?

[@BELLON]

European SuperEnduro champion Magnus Thor is seen in front of Eddie for the first 20 minutes or so. There was one pro class, one amateur class and one woman class.

[@chadrides914]

HALAP 😂

[@killle28]

Fusk hoj!!!! Varför ska du ha förtur överallt? Divan är i farten😂😂

[@xlskins]

[@Linkan1551]

Skulle ta mig 2v att ta mig runt banan 🥵

[@BELLON]

Ja den var riktigt tuff! Video på när jag själv kör kommer senare i veckan 😁

[@lnostdal]

Holy shit, this is the worst trail I've seen in a while. The Varg did very good tho; looks like the ability to nimbly lift it around using instant-torque is useful. :)

[@BELLON]

Check out the other GoPro video from the same track, but with me riding, and you'll get a better picture of how hard it was! 😂 I did half a lap in 3h30mins, Eddie did four laps in little over four hours 😂
