I put some Shinko 241 tires on mine and it made a really big difference riding on pavement. I highly recommend installing a pair because the stock tires kinda suck lol The 241s handle good in the trails too. The next thing I plan to do is some warp 9 pegs, 3 inch riser bars and a direct mount stem. Really loving this bike so far.

The 241 look good, I wish they made them for regular 20x4 inch fat tire ebikes. Maybe they do, but literally every tire dealership and partner sub companies, do not have them in 110/70/16. They have the 244, but not the 241, and the straight rows of knobbies compared to the bubble knobbies is a difference I won't commit too lol. I would rather get the Sr 546 or whatever they are. I ride street mainly anyway.

This bike is available in the UK at the end of June, it costs the best part of 5k😮 Its a lot of poke for a bike that is not street legal and will get you constant hassle from the police although the instant torque and super acceleration does give you the ability to leave the boys in blue choking on your dust! Great riding John, keep the vids coming.

If you're street riding this, you're 100% eventually getting caught or having police profile you and flag you all the way back to your door. Coming from an L1E rider, I've had so many friends lose their bikes due to showing off in towns and city centres. It's not if it's when they find out who you are or catch you lacking Most content youtubers that are in the uk are either on private land with permission or drive to the locations with the bike in the van Uk won't sell loads of these, unfortunately, unless it's the phone theives or people with land and / or risk takers... I'd rather have a fully modded road legal talaria than lose one of these, if they bring out a road legal one, I'm game all day

The mare of London is putting a lot of new things in place. There is trialing new tech that sends a wave pulse at electrical bikes and scooters that sends errors to the scooter or bike that its over heating and shuts down the bms. I don't care too much for it all as my talaria is road legal. But I've seen so many videos now of people being caught on the roads or being tracked back to their homes Personally if you're braking the law, the police should be able to do what they want to stop you. They've also got surrons now the police ultra bees etc lol

I've been thinking about getting an e-dirt bike. I am a mountain biker and last year bought a Specialized Turbo Levo Expert. MSRP on that bike is $10,000 but I got a deal because I bought one for me and one for the wife. I spent another $4000 on upgrades like wheelset, brakes, carbon bars and such. So looking at $5200 for one seems like a deal to me. Whatever I buy, I have to get 2 because my wife rides too. I'm thinking of getting my wife a Surron light bee and I'll get the Ultra Bee. She likes the smaller light bee. I want something more like a dirt bike. I think the Ultra Bee is as close to a real dirt bike you can get.

@ShawnGoodisonProductionsАй бұрын
To share my enthusiasm for the ERide Pro, Surron, and Talaria community, the ERide Pro SS would be my long term investment than spending so much on upgrades for a Surron Light Bee X to get it up to the power that a Pro SS costs right out of the box. As you discovered, the cost of the Pro SS being what it is, is due to the more powerful controller and the 72V high Amp Hour battery. The unfortunate part is b/c of how much it cost to self maintenance/replace is why I built 2 DYI e-bikes, one being a Norco VPS Shore 3 Mid Drive (1000 Watt 52V) and another which I'm replacing is a Hub drive at 3000 Watts with a 72V battery which is also on a Norco VPS Atomik which is mostly cost friendly. But I'm filled with joy how much fun you're getting out the Pro SS.

I believe that buying a Talaria MX4 and the best controller and it will be as fast as the E Ride pro. The big plus for me is the Talaria has a gear box which is so much better than the primary belt drive of the E Ride. The Talaria Boys did this. They got an E Ride Pro and an stock Talaria MX4 ($4200) and added the best controller ($999)to the stock talaria MX 4 and they were just about the same for a couple of thousand less then the E ride pro

You can bring a few zip ties with you on your next ride to secure cables to chase down some of the rattles/noises.
