Electric Dirt BikesOctober 25, 2026
Hands-on with the Skirai TX1 high-power electric bike. I tested GPS top speed (~47 mph), throttle response, braking, suspension, and off-road hill climbs. Tons of torque and a great rear shock, but the front fork bottoms out, there’s no pedal assist, and you only get Eco/Sport modes.

Hands-on with the Ariel Rider Grizzly 72V Private Property Edition: a 72V dual-battery e-bike with an oil-cooled 3,000W rear hub motor (8,000W peak). I tested acceleration, GPS speed, comfort, brakes, and light off-road capability—and found big power with a surprisingly refined ride, plus a few real-world caveats.

I tested the Aipas M1 Pro all-terrain fat tire e-bike for real-world speed, throttle feel, comfort, braking, and light off-road use. It hit about 30 mph by GPS and feels nicely tuned, but the rear suspension is stiff and hills require pedaling.
