Is it for you?
Best suited to
Riders who liked the Light Bee formula but want far more power, range and modern rider aids.
Standout strength
24kW peak and 410Nm at the wheel in a 65kg bike, with traction control, wheelie control and a 3.53kWh semi-solid-state battery good for a claimed 160km at 25 km/h.
The main compromise
Off-road only, and $1,500 more than the Light Bee X it sits above.
Consider something else if
You need a road-legal e-bike. This is an off-road motorbike; look at the compliant bikes in the directory instead.
Check before you buy
Confirm where you can legally ride it (private land or a registered off-road park), and who handles warranty and parts in your state.
