Is it for you?
Best suited to
Riders who want Light Bee X money to buy more power, with 72V and long-travel suspension.
Standout strength
13.4kW peak and 500Nm from a 72V 40Ah (2,880Wh) battery, with 220mm of fork travel and four-piston brakes.
The main compromise
76kg, heavier than the Light Bee X, and the rear shock stroke is short at 85mm.
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.

How much does the Talaria Sting Pro MX5 TL5500 cost in Australia?
The Talaria Sting Pro MX5 TL5500 is listed at $7,500 (Sale price from the official distributor (A e-Bikes, NSW); RRP $8,500. PedL also lists it at $7,500.). eBikeFinder checks pricing against manufacturer and distributor information, and prices can change with sales and stock. This price was last checked on 9 Oct 2026.
Is the Talaria Sting Pro MX5 TL5500 road legal in Australia?
Not as a bicycle. The Talaria Sting Pro MX5 TL5500 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 Talaria Sting Pro MX5 TL5500?
The Talaria Sting Pro MX5 TL5500 has a claimed range of about 100 km from its 2880Wh 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 Talaria Sting Pro MX5 TL5500 have?
The Talaria Sting Pro MX5 TL5500 uses a Talaria mid-mount motor, 5.5kW rated motor, in a mid-drive position, producing 500Nm of torque. Mid-drive motors climb hills better because they work through the bike's gears.
How much does the Talaria Sting Pro MX5 TL5500 weigh?
The Talaria Sting Pro MX5 TL5500 weighs about 76 kg. That matters if you need to lift it onto a car rack, carry it up stairs, or store it, since e-bikes are heavier than regular bikes because of the motor and battery.
Who sells and backs the Talaria Sting Pro MX5 TL5500 in Australia?
The Talaria range is distributed in Australia by A e-Bikes (Revesby NSW), official Australian and NZ distributor. Buying from a brand with real Australian support matters most when something needs a warranty claim or a service.
