had mine for a year as well; Love it. The only thing that annoyed me was having to spend more money on rims, tires, new chains and sprockets.

@@seanmoore7207 I crammed a 110 tire on the stock rear rim (major pain until I used the zip tie method) and put a used crf250 front rim with a little bit of trimming the axle and then got rid of the o-ring chain (surprising power robber) and all is good. Had to drill the rear rim for a bead lock because the 110 was ripping the tube on the first acceleration.

Yo bro where do I buy one the same as the video and how much cheers?

If you take the battery out of the bike, there is a small battery % on the battery, but its made out of bars instead of numbers like on light bee

Yeah, I wish the number was bigger since it's the most important information 😢

Yeah that’s weird someone who’s had the bike for so long wouldn’t notice that. 2:44 after the initial start up sequence you can clearly see it’s at 43%.

@@seashackf1 yeah well when you're 70 years old and your clothes up vision is diminishing you may find it difficult to see those numbers as well. I still have really good distance vision so I don't need glasses to ride. But I have to put my readers on to see the numbers

let me know how the range goes

@@daddy8875 Found out the Torp 1000 controller does not work well with 80V batteries 😂. But I got it to work by draining the battery under the 90V limit that the controller has. I ended my 33.46 mile ride at 29% on the UB’s display and 71% ~79V according to the Torp app. I don’t know which one is correct to be honest. But compared to the stock battery I made it to our turn around point at 79% compared to usually 50-55% on the stock battery. I was using a mixture of 14 KW and 10 KW in the Torp app. 32% after 33 miles was a little less than I was hoping as I got 30 miles at 7% remaining with the stock battery.

Based on the math I did 79V on a 22 cell battery would be ~71% so I’m guessing the Torp app is correct which is sick if true.

@BeGoodNow12 I only tested up to 14kw but it felt very similar to having it in sport mode with the stock controller and battery. I’ll try out 18kw+ next ride to see if top speed increases.

@BeGoodNow12 Thankfully their beta firmware fully supports the battery. The beta software also gives you the full functionalitly of the stock display! So it's great now and 14kw with the new firmware is alot quicker than stock sport mode and 18kw makes it feel like a different bike. Definitly have a higher top speed now as I hit 60 mph at 18 kw with a 54t sprocket. And battery range is good. I got down to 29% after ~36 miles switching between 11, 14 and 18 kw. It was very fast single track so I imagine it will do better in terms of miles on slower and more technical single track.

I have have two light bees that our family loves. My son is as tall as Matthew, and we might consider a bigger bike. The Light Bee is a perfect, perfect bike to learn on. Reply/Send me a note if you are interested in a used bike, low miles, we'll taken care of? I am in Western NY, could deliver. within reason. No hurry to sell, just thinking out loud!

I have had an ultra since May. I am tall, but not an experienced rider. I don't think your height would be a problem. Ultra is not a full sized dirt bike. It actually seems designed for a smaller person. It's pretty easy to ride.

For sure! I'm at as many races as possible

Want a Storm in future! Test rode one last year and loved it

I would go Ultra Bee route for sure! As far as the 371 miles, got it late last year. Close to the end of the riding season

Hard to say since none has ridden the Dragon. I can tell you that the Ultra Bee does great

Lol this one is like 10k€

Agreed

Shock Bikes sells them!

@@electricisbetter I’m assuming I can order online?

It can do 56- 60mph, 90-95kmh

@@Londue aceleration 0 to 30mph

@@Lucas-nh2mkthink it’s 2.3secs

I noticed that. & Right after I told stupid people to not watch the video 🤣

@@electricisbetter You need to get a remote mic, you sound a little distant in this video.

How much would you pay for gas and oil in 5 years?

He is talking about the bars on the actual battery, when you pull the battery out of the bike

Lol always been good since they do a majority of manufacturing

Have you ever ridden one?

@@electricisbetter yeah Iv ridden a few stock and a few modded ones. they really dont make much low end power at all even though they seem to. for example a gas bike will easily pull up the front tire at 1st gear (low road speed) and barely at like 4th gear (high road speed). this is because the power is constant throughout the gears, same hp to the ground in 1st and 4th gear. at higher speed the wheel has less torque but much higher rpm. the lack of torque results in hard to lift front end. an e bike will wheelie just as easily from 5 kmh as it will at 40 kmh. math shows that flat power (just like the gas bike) results in high torque at low rpm and low torque at high rpm. but ev bikes have flat torque so as rpm increases and torque remains constant the hp output ends up being far greater at high rpms. I rode my friends 18ish kw crazy telaria with a small rear sprocket for 100 mph top speed (it couldnt actually hit that due to wind resistance but it theoretically could with enough power) and it would literaly not have the power to pull the fornt wheel off the ground at anything below 20 kmh because bldc motors dont make flat power but as soon as it went above 40 it could do it easily, proving a very steep power curve. not only that but sur rons and telarias overdraw like hell at low rpms especialyl to try to artificially negate that terrible low end power and it still did that. so he had uneblievable terrible performance at low speeds, burnt out his esc, motor, and blew up 2 battery packs trying to offroad with us, but could do hgihway stuff no problem. this is all because the motors make no low end power and have insane heat production attempting to make good low end power. its hard to wrap your head around this stuff if you dont understand the differences between hp and torque and energy output but I can go far moreinto depth and explain the math and stuff too.

@@electricisbetter oh I forgot this video was about the storm bee, I have not ridden a storm bee but the characteristics remain the same as a small sur ron so its the same problems as I mentioned in the other comment. poor low end power and in attempt to make low end power insane current draw is nescessary (due to close to zero back emf) and thus very little wattage input but most of it goes to heat due to the fact that its like 90 percent current/torque making the wattage.
