I totally agree with you. I own both. I've had the Storm since November 2021 and the Ultra since February 2023. I live off-road in the mountains of Mongolia and have steep, rocky technical terrain - not really even trails just cross country. So this suits the Ultra more because I'm less likely to fall off and when I do it's so easy to pick up and muscle it out of trouble on steep slopes. However, for dirt roads, I prefer the Storm because it's got more capable suspension. For steep hill climbing, the tires on the Ultra aren't really aggressive enough and I lose traction way too easily. I'm not keen on changing wheels so I'm still searching for a more aggressive 19" rear tire. I'm tall (187cm) so the Ultra feels a little small and low - which is good on steep hills - whereas the Storm is just about right. I'd also consider raising the bars on the Ultra but I'm not in a big hurry.

The first proper comparison, thanks!

I would note that you are basing this off of the 90v battery that shipped with the early models of the storm bee. The production models are being shipped with 104v so that should give it a bit more power.

Appreciated 👌🏻

Great comparison, Ultra Bee very impressive piece of kit 👍

Great video, really looking forward to what your thoughts are on the Stark Varg when you can get one on the trail 👍🏻

Great video. Keep it up, you have some of the best content for these bikes

Honestly, I don't think I could ever give up gas bikes. The BRAAAP of the engine is half the fun. But I would own an ULTRA right besides my 2-stroke.

It seems that this is the older 90V Storm Bee. I have the newer 104V and I found that the range is better than Ultra Bee.

I ordered with the Ultra (with 21 / 18 wheels) even though I am a little taller. I am 6'2 and a beginner rider. I don't plan on going on tracks or doing anything above intermediate trails. I much prefer the way Storm looks and I bet it feels more solid, but my gut told me that the Ultra would be easier to ride and better suited for me.

Good info thanks. I have an ultra on order.

Watching the riding, it appears the Ultra is doing better

I am 150 lbs 5,9 wich is bettter id prefter storm for more trvel of suspension but also might b to light to get the use of all the suspension

Thanks for the review and comments. I'm a little confused about the different types of Storm Bees. From what little I know, there is the E(enduro), F(off-road), and R(road) types. Do all types have the same suspension? Did you review the F version? Is the F version the only type that CAN do jumps and even bigger jumps than the Ultra? Is the E version extra soft for going over small bumps? Thanks!

What he said was The storm is terrifying

Talaria sting ?

Wow! The other racers were really not committed much to any kind of race speeds😂

If you’re over 6 feet tall or over 190 pounds go with the storm. I’m almost too big for the storm.

40mm of less travel on the suspension water cooled engine liist gors on why storm is kingg

can you comment on your height ? I've never done any dirt biking and am interested in getting one for taking on forest roads, basically gravel/dirt roads that high clearance vehicles can drive on, so much easier and laid back than single track. My question concerns whether someone of my stature (5'6 or 1.68m) would be comfortable on either of these bikes given their seat height.
