Is This Electric Dirt Bike Good Enough For Enduro?!?

[@azlcferra]

Wow, impressive without cutting the green wire, it should handle that last hill with the wire cut. I went with the 58tooth sprocket to help with the climbs. Also, you can program regen and brake sensors without having to disconnect sensors.

[@JShockz_brown]

Is there actually any point in cutting the wire with the newer rons? Just put it into sport, was under the impression the us version is limited in both sport and eco

[@poepeloerke2]

@@JShockz_brown Stock they are limited in both eco and sport mode, with the wire cut it is still limited in eco mode but unlimited in sport mode.

[@JShockz_brown]

Your channel is growing up to be something incredible. In the future I wouldn't be surprised if you did much more riding on many other different types of Enduro bikes, electric and gas. Can't wait to see in the years to come

[@MidWestMX]

Thanks for the kind words ✌️

[@patelbv]

thanks for the comparison; I'm currently running a YZ250 for local short run duty when I came across a guy on a Sur Ron X at the staging area. He prefers to the Sur Ron because it was relatively maintenance free and he could more easily pick it up and throw it in the truck. Strongly considering to add one of these for weekly local runs, and keeping the YZ for longer dirt bike rides.

Hey man, recently subscribed, love watching the content when winter has its grip on Minnesota. Have you ever heard of Meadow Valley? It's a track here in MN, kind of an intermediate track BUT they have 25 miles of trails out there. Always a blast, something for everyone. Come give it a shot!

[@SOULEMOTIONOFFICIAL]

The problem with this bike is the size. Even in my husqvarna te300 people 6ft + need some adjustments. I had bad experiences when I was younger buying medium small size downhill mountain bikes.

[@Kraken2681994]

Check out the Talaria Sting dude. It's like a surron, but improved in lots of areas the Ron falls short. Including being taller.

[@mitikumitiku4442]

Hi, congratulations! Nice first ride. And it was not the softest trail. You trusted the bike. Respect. Believe me, cutting the wire is the only one thing you can do for free. The last few months I doubled the price with some tuning parts like................. But the best was the 72V batterie 50km offroad, max. Power 14KW. Enough for me.

[@Chocolate_dragon]

How deep are you? I watched a guy on KZbin with a one and he was around 9k in it. Why not buy a ktm free ride at that point?

[@mitikumitiku4442]

Deep? No high! KTM eEXC is an electric Motobike and you know the price. SURRON is a new category of bikes. If you'd have one you'd know it. Light, easy to handle, with some features under the limit of a regular enduro. Range, suspension, wheel size. After you bought it for appr. 4500€ you can decide what you want. This way I learned a lot about MTB parts and prices and the quality of it. Now I've got a second bike to ride different. At first: I trust to ride alone. Every second day I can have my training for 30 to 60 minutes at the trail in the backyard. I love it. AND you know: The difference between men and boys, is the price of their toys.

[@havocpidgeon6839]

you can add a 72v battery and bac4000/8000 controller to make it have top speeds of 60mph+ and have insane torque

[@mix19tape]

But at what cost? It costs half the bike, maybe 2/3 of the bike, at that cost you buy new 125cc gas bike

[@surronzak8154]

@@mix19tape it will be way more powerfull than the 125cc, no noise and light weight without maintenance, why do you guys always want to compare to ICE, it's not comparable, even just the size

[@6Twisted]

Not having two wheel drive seems like a missed opportunity given how simple it would be to add.

Not really necessary if you know how to ride, and adds up even more weight on the front, it's allready a bit heavy on the front, race spec surron has done it for his hard enduro sessions

I tried one at a party not to long ago. It is crazy it took that pit bike course well! I almost used the eco and the sport mode as a power valve for getting around the crazy turns and hills. So fun but I did not like a how quite it was

[@guitarchitech]

Hoping to test one here too! 🤟

[@danhughes_8995]

Fair play that sur ron did alot better than what i thought it would. When u was saying you want more bikes for the channel would love to see you use a stark e motocross they are something else. Ps happy new year and have a good one 👍

Surron simply the best!!!

[@jacksonstrand3136]

[@HELLRAISERGaming]

Such a fun little bike, I've changed the pegs, handlebars, 60t sprocket, tyres, bash guard, forks, all senses gone and its made it up every hill I've thrown at it. Some stuff i couldn't do when it was stock but now I can and its like a different bike. It does need more power though but with these few upgrades its still amazing!

[@Zackattack94]

What tires you recommend for offroad stock rim??

[@HELLRAISERGaming]

@@Zackattack94 think I'm using michelin Starcross but anything with decent tread is good. People also put a wider tyre on the back but you can only go up about 10m because it catches the frame.

The REAL comparison is going to be with the Stark Varg. Stark is claiming some pretty interesting features like power modes from a 650cc motor cross to a 125cc platform. And the battery can last as long as a 450 tank of gas with a professional mx rider. Either way. Love your videos and keep up the great work
