Talaria MX5 Pro is OFFICIALLY RELEASED!
The MX5 Pro looks amazing on paper! I ended up purchasing this within about 15 minutes of it getting released :D I'm pretty excited to see how it is going to perform. Like I mentioned in the video I'm not affiliated with Luna or Talaria in anyway so hopefully I can have some feedback on their bike with my likes and dislikes and answer any questions you have regarding the bike. Thanks for watching!

AAA Batteries
Переглядів 821 день тому
AA and AAA batteries are very inexpensive, and I don't see a reason to purchase rechargeable versions. I recently bought some AAA from Battery Hookup and got them for around 15c per battery. New batteries from Amazon seem to be around 19c to 25c per battery and I'm not sure if it's worth the hassle to buy "used" or older alkaline batteries. Either way, in town they are way too expensive.

26 Solar Panels Installed!...But Not Ready To Turn On Yet (Pending Inspection)

Rawrr Mantis 60v First Impressions
Переглядів 3212 місяці тому
I got pretty close to purchasing this clean 60v Rawrr Mantis emoto. The lack of any regen integrated into the bike, the ergonomics and the lackluster power at 60v is what kept me from buying it. Very cool to see a direct mount stem from the factory, decent stock tires and a controller that can handle both 60v and 72v. Fix the seat and put in a 72v battery and this thing would rip!

It even disappointing surron ultra bee
I need to know for my son why should he get the mx5 because right now his mind is set on the e ride pro ss but he doesn't know which one to get so can I get why the mx5 is better than the ride pro ss and which one he should get.
the e ride pro isn't a bad bike. It was the most recommended bike from TB before the MX5 released. While I prefer the MX5, you can't really go wrong with either one.
Looking to buy a new emoto Dirtbike for next spring want something a little smaller than my 250cc 4 stroke Dirtbike and also quieter so I can rip the Neighbor discrete. This is definitely the bike to beat so far just the total package can’t wait for future videos. Definitely want to see how this stacks up against the other competitors!
Woah Dave! You ordered one of those!? Can't wait to talk to you.
Yup, finally pulled the trigger!
Suronster's range sucked on this new bike.
do you know how long shipping will take?
No idea. I purchased it over the weekend and haven't heard anything from Luna Cycle. I don't think they have any automated systems. I'll make another video detailing the ordering and shipping process.
I ordered a mx4 and canceled it at the last minute. Bought an eride pro and now this comes out!
I personally have a mx4. I really have no complaints besides the clunkyness/rattling I get from the rear end. *It's not the battery* I have an air wedge and foam pads, so it won't budge even if you wanted it to. Also the brakes. They put mountain bike brakes on a 150 pound bike that goes 56 MPH. That's just asking for trouble, in my opinion. I am so looking forward to more reviews on the mx5. Especially from talaria boys, as they are more in-depth.
I agree, I think it was a missed opportunity to not give one to the TB to test. I'm also looking forward to their insight. To some extent, I like watching people who have no sponsors to see what they think without any strings attached.
I just bought a e ride pro few days ago from gritshift (hasn’t got to my house) should i return it when it gets here and get the MX5 or stick with the eride 2.0?
Both bikes have the same speed. I’d say e ride for its light weight and mx5 if u want a heavier solid bike
@@Dreamsmall1234 gear box easier to deal with or the belt drive? Also mx5 has better brakes and suspension id assume
@@Dreamsmall1234 also looked like MX5 had faster acceleration from Surronsters new video
@@chazcarpenter1559you have to do oil changes while eride can be changed to chain drive for even more durability. The MX5 takes off a little faster but still has the same speed as the e ride. I get up to 62mph on my pro ss but I only weigh 130
The mx4 suspension is also a bit better but e ride is good also. But the mx5 range is horrible. The eride has better range since its light weight
I have been locked in on the E ride pro as for the last week, but waited because this bike was going to release. Now I am leaning heavy towards the mx5. I may pull the trigger today. Luna cycle worries me though, I haven’t heard great things about them for warranty work. I think if someone like rev rides had them in stock I would buy it right now.
Get it it’s faster than the eride
@@blaze_birb7547they both have the same top speed. The Mx5 just takes off a bit quicker
I've used Luna Cycle for my BBS02 motor and some other smaller purchases. No issues so far. They do expect you to be a little bit handy and DIY, it's not what I would consider "full service" support.
I personally prefer "ampped bikes" or "talaria boys" for parts/bikes. I'm sure ampped won't have the mx5 for a little while though.
@@tminustoday I went ahead and ordered the mx5. Wonder what shipping times look like?
Belt Drives are for beginners and they really SUCK
Theres a video of it on UA-cam
Pretty cool!
mx5 wtf happened to the Dragon.?
They've been pretty quiet about the Dragon. I hope it comes out soon!
@@tminustoday I Know its driving me Crazy lol
13.4kw peak is what is on the talaria Canada website. Supposedly $4800
And it's official! $4,700 with a bunch of upgrades over the MX4!
About $200 to do with yourself or about $700 to buy one this may actually be worth the effort... 👍
nice. About to order this but the fardriver controller version
The Ultra Bee is the perfect bike. You can leave it stock and have for or make it crazy and hold on....
It will be a kids bike
you were right
@@Sendz_Sur I came here to say the same thing :D
The link didn't work for the tire. What is the size? (Example: 120x90x16) im trying to find tires that will fit a 20x4 but the sizes are different as you know. Im new to this and very confused.
The tire size is 3.00x16 for a motorcycle tire. I updated the link to a Shinko 241 (slightly less knobby, still a great tire that'll fit). It is confusing that 20x4 is essentially equal to a 3.0x16 motorcycle tire, but that's what works!
What turn signals do you have installed?
Ultra Bee is the perfect size, not too big or small.
ITs a kids bike. It will be the biggest dissaponting.
Why would Surron post teasers on Instagram with dramatic music and all that just for a kids bike? You could be right, but it just wouldn't make sense for them to build up all this hype and anticipation, only for it to be a toy for children.
@@jasper_of_puppets I hope you are right. But look that motor and shock, it looks so tiny . Is obvioulsy smaller than lbx
@@kolopier They posted on Instagram today. The caption read: "HYPER BEE🐝 is racing to the TKO... BEE Amazed on 23-08-24 🐲⚡" I'm assuming they are referring to the Red Bull TKO Enduro racing event going on that weekend. It's just hard for me to believe they'd pump everybody up just to release a kids bike. But I guess we'll see in a handful of days!
@@kolopier They posted another teaser today. The caption said something like: "Hyper Bee racing to the TKO" The Red Bull TKO Enduro race also happens to be the same weekend the Hyber Bee will be unveiled... I just don't see how this could be a kids bike. But we shall see.
@@jasper_of_puppets New images ... Is a tiny bike. CONFIRMED.
Very helpful, I won’t be replacing it. But still very helpful
Thanks man for your vid!! I enjoyed that and laughed when you after starting your bike, "It actually sounds louder!"🤣 I have a DR650 with the same "Two brothers muffler" and yep, it's loud too! It will need repacking so thanks again for your video man 👍
I think the smartest thing to do for Surron is to go bigger. hyper bee, it just makes me think it has to be a full size dirt bike that can compete with the varg, flux primo, dust moto. They already run the small bikes. The storm bee can’t compete with the varg or primo. And when the dust is in beta stages it will be better. It’s in alpha already putting up storm numbers.
It will be a kids bike
yes it costs 50$ but you can get a chain drive kit for the ultra bee and you wont have to worry about stripping belts.
You make a great point. Thanks for the reminder!
@@tminustoday just get the ultra bee as you probably know the hyper bee is a pitbike
Great! It worked for me. It was so easy!! That mesh really needed it to be clean 😮. We bought I used car a few months ago and it seems they never cleaned it. But thank you so much. For the first time, me changing a part of a car it was exciting! 😅
Hey I was looking at the Aliexpress link and I saw the option for a 175mm and 190mm; I was wondering what those options mean because I am afraid if I were to buy those it wouldn't fit onto my bike frame. Thanks much!
That measurement is the space between your rear wheel from the inside of the frame between the wheel. Take a measuring tape, measure it and convert it to mm. It should be pretty close. Order the one that is closer to your bike's rear dropout width.
@@tminustoday Okay thank you!
Hi Dave, It's great to see you again! Interesting topic. I do have 6 rechargeable AAA batteries that I use all the time. they work great. Also, 8 rechargeable AA batteries.
balance wires need to be short, the extra wire get you resistance and charging balance problems
16" balance wires seem pretty short to me.
My 3000W 72V does 0-30 under 3 seconds.
Your video helped me repair my issue, thank you!
there are those days that the best thing to do is park it. I've noticed with myself when it's hot, really hot anything that happens/goes on is/has quadrupled the already to a heat frustrated day ., The bikes also respond to the heat as well...the bikes have their own personality too.
Good advice! I was sure having a tough day with it.
Tbh seems like maybe some poor jetting but mostly operator error... I wouldn't give up on gas bikes based on this experience. You may have better luck with a bike better suited to dirt. Saying this as someone w dirt bikes and electric dirt bikes.
I was indeed riding pretty poorly that day. I've never had such a hard time keeping a bike running as well. Now that I've blown off some steam, I don't think I'll give up on gas bikes, but I really do want something that's fuel injected so I can at least get rid of that variable. I can climb 5000ft in elevation in an hour around here. Would a bike that's better suited for dirt mean something that's lighter? I'm curious to know what you mean by that.
Do u Have to Use Peddles..Cant u just use the throttle and Go??
This can be operated with pedals or throttle since it's a class-3 type of ebike.
How do u know how they will Fit. w.e u are building..im looking to try this and make a project n do it by myself but im bad with electric stuff...so id be great to get all the info i can
If you take the defective part out before disconnecting the wire it makes the job wayyy easier. And reattach the wire before replacing the part
Great help!
Im actually trying to open the exhaust and take all that mess out of it instead of adding to it.
What vesa Mount would you recommend for this monitor?
wow thanks for the Inf I was confused before
You have to rejet the carb on these bikes from the factory. Its a well known issue. Its not hard. 6sigma jet kit on amazon comes with great instructions. Best of luck
I really enjoy open back headphones.
That's great, Dave!!
Exciting!

You do not mention if your grid provider offers netmetering or not, that makes a lot of difference for judging the break even calculation. Sometimes there are extra fixed fees if you feed in too...
