Light Bee X
This exceeds the 250W and 25 km/h pedelec rules and is not road-legal in Australia. Closed-course and private land only.
Is it for you?
Best suited to
Trail and enduro riders who want dirt bike performance in a 57kg package that is easy to lift and load.
Standout strength
The power-to-weight is the headline, with 8kW peak and 266Nm pushing just 57kg.
The main compromise
It is off-road only with a modest 75km maximum range, so it cannot be registered or commuted legally on Australian roads.

Common questions
How much does the Sur-Ron Light Bee X cost in Australia?
The Sur-Ron Light Bee X is listed at $6,490 (from $6,490, varies by dealer; distributor RRP from $7,490 plus freight). eBikeFinder checks pricing against manufacturer and distributor information, and prices can change with sales and stock.
Is the Sur-Ron Light Bee X road legal in Australia?
Not as a bicycle. The Sur-Ron Light Bee X sits outside the 250W pedal-assist standard (through higher power or a throttle that drives it beyond walking pace), so in Australia it is treated as a motor vehicle. That means it is for private property or off-road use, not public roads or shared paths, unless registered.
What is the range of the Sur-Ron Light Bee X?
The Sur-Ron Light Bee X has a claimed range of about 75 km from its 2400Wh battery. Real-world range is usually lower than the claim, since it depends on assist level, rider weight, terrain and wind.
What motor does the Sur-Ron Light Bee X have?
The Sur-Ron Light Bee X uses a Sur-Ron PMSM motor, in a mid-drive position, producing 266Nm of torque. Mid-drive motors climb hills better because they work through the bike's gears.
Who sells and backs the Sur-Ron Light Bee X in Australia?
The Sur-Ron range is distributed in Australia by Surron Australia. It comes with a Per distributor terms warranty. Buying from a brand with real Australian support matters most when something needs a warranty claim or a service.
