84$5,29921 kW3.2 kWhbuyers who want an established-brand alternative to Sur-Ron and Talaria with dealer support, riders who value premium suspension and brakes out of the box

What works

  • 15.8 kW peak output and 62 mph top speed put it above the SS 2.0 and Light Bee class
  • 72V/50Ah swappable pack gives it 3.6 kWh without leaving the compact trail-bike format
  • Reverse, app support, adjustable suspension, and 4 ride modes make it more complete than the value-focused SS 2.0

Trade-offs

  • Real trail range still needs verified owner or test data; claimed range is a low-speed figure
  • Higher price and lower rider-weight rating than the SS 2.0 weaken its heavy-rider/value case
  • Smaller aftermarket/support base than Sur-Ron or Talaria

What works

  • Established brand with a real US dealer network, app ecosystem, and smart-vehicle features rare in this class
  • Excellent power-to-weight: 21 kW peak, 600 N.m, about 187 lb, and roughly 60 mph from a 72V/44Ah pack
  • Premium chassis for the price: Marzocchi inverted fork, matched 220 mm travel, 4-piston hydraulic brakes, and 19/18 knobbies

Trade-offs

  • New model, so aftermarket parts and owner knowledge are nascent versus Sur-Ron and Talaria
  • Off-road only as sold; the factory lighting and smart features do not make it street-legal
  • The battery appears service-removable rather than trail-swappable, so quick pack swaps are not part of the value story
