Great video...I really look forward to these bikes becoming more mainstream.As for those who think they give up alot to gas bikes you need to read more tests, it's just not so.
The battery is swappable. So when the riders run out, they pull over for a pit stop. The exhausted battery is pulled out for charging and a freshly charged battery is put in, takes about 30 seconds.
Jeg har selv været med i løbet og jeg kan godt sige dig at den nok er hurtigere end din crosser på grund af det helt sindsyge moment, som motoren har.
This must be the way of future for our sport. All this talk about CO2 footprint will soon have us banned from any form of recreation that involves a gasoline powered motor.
Today, riders have rolled of Super Bike special in Svanemøllens Kaserne, not far from Copenhagen´s downtown. Stefan Olsen won this last day, before Joël Smet and Mikkel Caprani.
All actors in this extraordinary event felt a great relief after the race: the motorcycle has yet beautiful days before it... with an electric engine!
"I trusted this project to Quantya" entrusts Ivan Reedtz-Thott and the international riders who have agreed to meet the challenge have confirmed me that I was right. They did the rest by showing the world that we could adapt to climate problems without abandoning our passion and satisfaction!
Despite a shock treatment, no mechanical case was to regret for the Quantya bikes nor the single Zero Motorcycle of Tommy Heimberg from Switzerland, who received a special 'fair play' prize for having the courage to come to fight alone with an American motorcycle against a great... Swiss motorcycle!
Absence of pollution, noise, a light, agile and fun motorbike with enough power to amuse you while riding, that was the analyse of riders like as Joël Smet, five times motocross world champion, Fabien Planet, winner of the enduro race, Pal Ullevalseter or even Pedro Bianchi Prata, Paolo Gonçalves, Matteo Graziani, Annie Seel...
Indeed, after three days of intensive race on different types of soil, in the opinion of all present riders is that the electric bike is now the future of off-road disciplines.
"This is a historic moment and you have all opened a new page in the history of motorcycling, said Anders Minken, member of the FIM Alternative Energy Working Group at the gala dinner.
Do you have an idea what it does mean to ride without "sound" while other people is walking on our "shared" tracks? It's more dangerous than to ride an endotermic engine ....
and ... it is really "green2 the electric engine? How long is it the battery life? From which material are made from? Were the electric power is generated? Nuclear? Still fossile electric central (carbon or oil)... ? And how long do you drive? Sometimes is hard to refuel a gasoline bike aftre 70km tracks... And Electrics?
I like ectric engine for power and torque curve... but here one of the main actors in pollutions are electric central, mainly powered from fossile or gas... Should be nice if electric bike should be allowed by law to run on the trails... but I know also MTB users have a lot of problem in riding due many places become forbitten also for bycle.... I like free ride, enduro... To be forced to ride in a small tracks for 20 min of battery life... is very faraway from my idea of riding.
Nice, I have done many race in RC off road model, since early "90 ... and electric motor is very funny in off road... battery have had an impressive inprovement now , and some work is still to do... but even if this bike are "0 emission" the real problem for play for week end users is the absolutly needs to have a autorized track for Enduro (I mean not for competition...)
WOW!! Thanks for sharing!! To bad i didn't have the shit loads of cash to do this race, it would have been a memory for life!! =) wonder how long you can go with a charge?
CONGRATULATION! I wish I could be there, wanted so much to ride both a green bike and with my friend Pal, too bad I was in the hospital!!! Will be there next year. Arnaud Jacquart
