Top picks
Three bikes, three kinds of rider. Prices checked November 12, 2026.
Rawrr Mantis X
Lowest price in the top half of this ranking: $2,999, 72 Wh per $100. Best for first-time adult riders who want a light, cheap, US-assembled e-moto.
8.5/10Very good$2,999 Nov 12, 2026
Rawrr Mantis Mini R
115.7 lbs with battery, per Rawrr, for $2,399. Best for teens and small adults who want a real 72V e-moto in a smaller frame.
8.4/10Good$2,399 Nov 12, 2026
The ranking: 14 electric dirt bikes, scored
Fourteen e-motos from eight brands, ranked on dated US prices, power, battery, weight, warranty, road status and charging.
An electric dirt bike is a simple promise: twist, go, no fuel, no oil changes and no noise to annoy the neighbors. The hard part is choosing, because every listing says "most powerful" and every forum swears by a different brand. So we read the official and US dealer pages of fourteen bikes from Sur-Ron, Talaria, E Ride Pro, Rawrr, Altis, Segway, Stark and KTM, wrote down the price on November 12, 2026, and scored each one with the same public formula.
Price counts for 25%, then peak power, battery size and weight (15% each), then warranty, road status and charging time (10% each). A figure the brand doesn't publish scores low, because you can't plan around a number nobody gives you.
Our No. 1 is the Talaria Komodo MX: 32 kW, a 4,374 Wh pack and a one-hour fast charge for $5,699. The E Ride Pro SS 4.0 is the sensible all-rounder at $4,999, and the Rawrr Mantis X is the best way in at $2,999.

Our No. 1 · Talaria
Talaria Komodo MX
Best for adult riders who want full-size wheels, real power and the fastest charging on the list.
9.4/10Excellent- Peak power
- 32 kW peak
- Battery
- 4,374 Wh
- Weight
- 216 lbs
- Top speed
- 65 mph
- 32 kW peak, 8.6 kW nominal: the most power under $6,000 on our list
- 4,374 Wh battery, about 71 miles at 28 mph per Talaria
- 10-80% in about one hour on the 40 A fast charger
The catchAbout 216 lbs and a 35.8-inch seat: this is a full-size dirt bike, not a pit-bike-sized toy. Shorter or newer riders will feel it. And REV Rides listed every color as unavailable on November 12, so ask about the next shipment before you plan your weekend.
- 2
No. 2 · E Ride Pro
E Ride Pro SS 4.0
Best for riders who want long range, a light-ish bike and a one-year warranty for $4,999.
9.2/10Excellent- Peak power
- 18 kW peak
- Battery
- 3,600 Wh
- Weight
- 161 lbs
- Top speed
- 62 mph
- 18 kW peak, 7 kW rated, 0-30 mph in about 2 seconds (brand)
- 3,600 Wh swappable pack: 64+ miles at 25 mph, per E Ride Pro
- Same FASTACE suspension platform as the SR, 220 mm travel
The catchAt 161 lbs it is a solid step up from the 125 lb Light Bee class, and the seat height isn't on the page we read: sit on one or ask before you buy if you are short. It's an off-road and closed-course bike, full stop.
- 3
No. 3 · Stark
Stark VARG EX
Best for experienced riders who want the most powerful, road-homologated electric enduro bike.
8.9/10Very good- Peak power
- 44.7 kW peak
- Battery
- 7,200 Wh
- Weight
- 264 lbs
- Top speed
- Not stated
- 60 hp standard, 80 hp option
- 764 ft-lb at the rear wheel
- 7.2 kWh battery, up to 6 hours of trail riding (Stark)
The catch$13,040, the most expensive bike on our list, and 264 lbs. Our formula weighs price and weight heavily because most buyers ride for fun on trails; if you race or want the best, its specs say more than its score.
- 4
No. 4 · Altis
Altis Sigma
Best for riders who want SR-level power, a 98V system and a quick 2-hour charge.
8.8/10Very good- Peak power
- 25 kW peak
- Battery
- 3,402 Wh
- Weight
- 198 lbs
- Top speed
- 65 mph
- 25 kW peak (about 34 HP), hairpin motor
- 97.2V 35Ah Samsung 50S pack, 3,402 Wh
- 20-80% in about two hours
The catchNo warranty term on the Voro or REV pages we read, and a younger brand than Sur-Ron or Talaria. At 198 lb and 35 inches of seat it's also a big bike for a newcomer.
- 5
No. 5 · E Ride Pro
E Ride Pro SR
Best for experienced riders who want 25 kW and 70 mph in a 183 lb chassis.
8.7/10Very good- Peak power
- 25 kW peak
- Battery
- 3,600 Wh
- Weight
- 183 lbs
- Top speed
- 70 mph
- 25 kW peak, 0-30 mph in 1.8 s per the dealer
- 3,600 Wh battery, 62 miles at 25 mph per E Ride Pro
- 183 lbs and a 33.5-inch seat, low for this power
The catchWe couldn't find a warranty term on the product pages, and 25 kW in a light chassis is a lot. If you're still learning throttle control, the SS 4.0 makes more sense.
- 6
No. 6 · KTM
KTM Freeride E
Best for riders who want a big-brand enduro bike, a 2-year warranty and a road-legal path.
8.6/10Very good- Peak power
- 19.2 kW peak
- Battery
- 5,500 Wh
- Weight
- Not stated
- Top speed
- 59 mph
- KTM dealer network and up to 2 years of warranty
- 5.5 kWh IP67 battery, swappable in under 10 minutes
- WP XACT 43 mm fork, WP XPLOR PDS shock with 250 mm travel
The catch$9,999 plus $690 freight, before dealer fees. The 35.6-inch seat is tall, and KTM's own page doesn't give a weight.
- 7
No. 7 · Rawrr
Rawrr Mantis X
Best for first-time adult riders who want a light, cheap, US-assembled e-moto.
8.5/10Very good- Peak power
- 7.5 kW peak
- Battery
- 2,160 Wh
- Weight
- 139 lbs
- Top speed
- 50 mph
- $2,999: the cheapest full-size-ish e-moto on our list
- 139 lbs with battery, 34-inch seat
- 72V 2,160 Wh swappable battery, 62 miles in Eco (Rawrr)
The catch220 lb weight capacity, so heavier riders should look at the E Ride Pro SS 4.0. And 70 mm of rear travel is short for rough trails.
- 8
No. 8 · Rawrr
Rawrr Mantis Mini R
Best for teens and small adults who want a real 72V e-moto in a smaller frame.
8.4/10Good- Peak power
- 6 kW peak
- Battery
- 1,440 Wh
- Weight
- 115.7 lbs
- Top speed
- 46 mph
- 115.7 lbs with battery: the lightest bike here
- 28.89-inch seat height
- 72V, 6 kW max, 8 HP, 46 mph (Rawrr)
The catchThe 165 lb weight capacity means an adult will outgrow it fast, and 46 mph is a lot for a young rider. Use the app limits. Stock was out or pre-order on November 12.
- 9
No. 9 · Talaria
Talaria Sting R MX4
Best for riders who want the classic Light Bee formula with a bigger battery and a 12-month warranty.
8.3/10Good- Peak power
- 8 kW peak
- Battery
- 2,700 Wh
- Weight
- 143 lbs
- Top speed
- Not stated
- 2,700 Wh LG 21700 battery, more than the Light Bee X we priced
- 8 kW IPM motor, rated at 94% efficiency (dealer)
- 143 lbs, 286 lb max load with gear
The catchThe dealer says it ships limited to 20 mph to comply with federal, state and local laws, and asks buyers not to bypass it. And it was shown as unavailable at REV Rides on November 12.
- 10
No. 10 · Sur-Ron
Sur-Ron Ultra Bee
Best for experienced riders who want the biggest battery of the light-class bikes from the best-known brand.
8.2/10Good- Peak power
- 24.5 kW peak
- Battery
- 4,440 Wh
- Weight
- 187 lbs
- Top speed
- 59 mph
- 24.5 kW, 384 ft-lb (Sur-Ron USA)
- 74V 60Ah, about 4,440 Wh: the biggest pack under $6,000 here
- 71 miles at 31 mph, per Sur-Ron
The catchWe couldn't read a warranty term or a charging time on the pages we used, so the formula scores those as not stated. At $5,999 it's also $300 more than the Komodo, which charges far faster.
- 11
No. 11 · Segway
Segway Xaber 300
Best for riders who want a big-brand e-dirt bike with 21 kW, sold and serviced through dealers.
8.1/10Good- Peak power
- 21 kW peak
- Battery
- 3,170 Wh
- Weight
- 187 lbs
- Top speed
- Not stated
- 21 kW peak from Segway's own X720 controller
- 72V 44Ah, 3.17 kWh, Samsung 50S cells
- 187 lbs, 0.25 kW/kg power-to-weight (Segway)
The catchSegway notes that most dealers add a $200+ destination fee. The warranty term and an official top speed weren't on the page we read.
- 12
No. 12 · Sur-Ron
Sur-Ron Light Bee X
Best for riders who want the original light e-moto, the lightest adult bike here and endless upgrade parts.
8.0/10Good- Peak power
- 8 kW peak
- Battery
- 2,040 Wh
- Weight
- 125.6 lbs
- Top speed
- 46.6 mph
- 125.6 lbs: the lightest adult bike on our list
- 8 kW peak, 196.2 ft-lb (Sur-Ron USA)
- 46.6 mph, 46.6 miles at 24.9 mph
The catch$4,600 at Luna Cycle for about 2,040 Wh, less battery than the $4,499.99 Talaria MX4. No warranty term on the pages we read, and Luna was out of stock on November 12.
- 13
No. 13 · Talaria
Talaria XXX Pro MX
Best for lighter teens and adults who want a compact Talaria with real suspension for under $4,000.
7.9/10Fair- Peak power
- Not stated
- Battery
- 2,400 Wh
- Weight
- 125 lbs
- Top speed
- Not stated
- 125 lb and a 31.5-inch seat: easy to handle
- New 160 mm linkage rear suspension, 8-inch fork
- About 2,400 Wh, 128 LG M50 cells
The catchThe page we read doesn't give a peak power figure, so our formula can't credit one. Max rider weight is 250 lb.
- 14
No. 14 · Segway
Segway Xyber
Best for riders who want a moto-style e-bike with huge range and a 2-year warranty on a budget.
7.8/10Fair- Peak power
- 6 kW peak
- Battery
- 1,440 Wh
- Weight
- Not stated
- Top speed
- 43 mph
- $2,299.99: the lowest price on our list
- Limited 2-year warranty
- Up to 112 miles with two batteries (Segway)
The catchIt's an e-bike platform with 110/100 mm of suspension, not a long-travel dirt bike. The second battery costs extra, and Segway didn't list a bike weight on the page.

How much does a good electric dirt bike cost?
On our list, $2,299.99 to $13,040 on November 12, 2026. Most light e-motos worth buying cost $3,000 to $6,000, plus gear and freight.
Are electric dirt bikes street legal?
Most are sold for off-road use only. A few have a road-legal version (KTM Freeride E, Stark VARG EX) or road kit (Talaria Komodo L3e), and rules vary by state. Read our street-legal guide.
Sur-Ron or Talaria?
Talaria's Sting R MX4 has a bigger battery than the Light Bee X we priced and costs about $100 less; the Light Bee is lighter. See Sur-Ron vs Talaria.
