85$4,79912.5 kW2.6 kWhpower-hungry riders, a higher-peak-kW Sur-Ron alternative

What works

  • 12 kW peak and a 60 mph top speed — big power for under ~$4,000
  • 72V/40Ah (2.88 kWh) swappable Samsung pack; ~2 hr fast charge
  • 300 lb rider limit and regen — accommodates bigger/heavier riders

Trade-offs

  • Claimed range only holds at low steady speed; expect ~35 mi ridden hard
  • Smaller aftermarket/support than Sur-Ron or Talaria
  • Off-road only; no street kit as sold

What works

  • Marketed as a 'Sur-Ron killer' — 12.5 kW peak 'rocket mode' is big power for the money
  • Large removable battery, fast charging, and a headlight for kit-based street use
  • Adjustable suspension and tortoise/rabbit ride modes

Trade-offs

  • Newer brand with a smaller aftermarket than Sur-Ron/Talaria
  • Top-speed claims vary widely (46–55 mph) — verify the exact model
  • Range claim (100 mi) is an eco figure; expect far less ridden hard
