⚡ Electric Dirt Bike Compatibility

🧠 Fitment Tips for Electric Bikes

• ✅ Great for:

  • Youth MX e-bikes with 16" rear

  • Ultra-light e-moto builds

• ⚠️ Watch for:

  • Swingarm and chain clearance (especially on modded Light Bee or Sting R)

  • Proper rim width (ideally 1.85"–2.15")

  • Tyre height (~24.5”) – may raise ride height slightly

⚡️ Sur-Ron & Talaria Compatibility – How It Works

✅ Best Use Cases for Sur-Ron / Talaria

• Light Bee or Sting with 16" rear conversion for:

  • Youth riders or smaller riders needing a lower seat height

  • Tight singletrack / soft terrain builds

  • Builds focused on lightness and flickability

• Training bikes or flat-track conversions with smaller tyre circumference

• Superlight trail builds where weight and traction in loamy soil is key

🧠 Pros & Cons on Sur-Ron / Talaria

✅ Pros

• Lightweight = less unsprung mass = quicker handling, better battery efficiency

• Soft terrain grip = excellent traction in loam, sand, or muddy trails

• Lower rear profile = easier for shorter riders, lowers center of gravity

⚠️ Cons

• Smaller diameter (~24.5") = loss of top-end speed

• Not ideal for rocky or hardpack terrain

• Requires 16” rear wheel conversion – not a direct bolt-on for most models

• Not DOT-approved – off-road only use
