The Ultimate Electric Dirt Bike & E-Moto Comparison (2026)
Electric dirt bikes have officially crossed the line from “fun alternative” to legitimate high-performance machines. If you’re shopping for an electric dirt bike, e-moto, electric pit bike, or mini moto, three names dominate the conversation:
-
Sur-Ron Light Bee X
-
Talaria XXX
We sell and ride all three at Radmoto — and when you stack the specs, ride feel, and real-world ownership experience side by side, one bike clearly pulls ahead.
Let’s break it down.
Quick Spec Comparison
| Bike | Price | Top Speed | Peak Power | Battery | Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sur-Ron Light Bee X | $4,500 | 45 MPH | 8 kW | 60V / 40Ah | ~30 miles |
| Talaria XXX | $3,550 | 47 MPH | 6 kW | 60V / 40Ah | ~43 miles |
| 🔥 Altis Delta | $3,599 | 62 MPH | 13 kW | 72V / 35Ah | ~62 miles |
Right away, the numbers tell a story:
-
Altis Delta makes ~60% more power than a Sur-Ron
-
Top speed is 15–17 MPH faster
-
Higher voltage = stronger acceleration and torque
-
All at nearly the same price as Talaria XXX — and cheaper than Sur-Ron
But specs are only half the picture.
Power & Performance: This Isn’t Even Close
Altis Delta: Built Like a Real E-Moto
The Altis Delta runs a 72V system pushing 13kW peak power, which puts it in a completely different league.
What that means on the trail:
-
Brutal low-end torque
-
Stronger mid-range pull
-
Higher sustained top speed
-
Less voltage sag under hard riding
Sur-Ron and Talaria both cap out at 60V systems, which limits how hard they can push power without overheating or stressing components.
Result: Altis Delta feels more like a lightweight electric motocross bike — not a beefed-up pit bike.
Brakes, Wheels & Components: Where Altis Quietly Dominates
This is where Altis really separates itself.
What Altis Delta Includes (Stock):
-
✅ Full DOT-4 motorcycle hydraulic brakes
-
✅ Staggered motocross wheels
-
✅ Motocross-style plastics
-
✅ Direct-drive transmission
-
✅ Long, comfortable seat
-
✅ Full-color display
-
✅ Under-seat storage

Sur-Ron and Talaria?

-
No true moto brake fluid
-

Most riders end up spending thousands upgrading Sur-Ron or Talaria just to approach what the Altis Delta comes with from the factory.
Electric vs Gas Pit Bikes: The Real Comparison
Let’s talk about the elephant in the room.
A typical 125cc–250cc gas pit bike:
-
~10–18 HP
-
Oil changes
-
Air filters
-
Spark plugs
-
Carb tuning
-
Loud exhaust
-
Constant maintenance
Altis Delta (13 kW ≈ 17.4 HP):
-
Instant torque
-
No oil changes
-
No fuel
-
No clutch
-
No warm-up
-
Silent power delivery
-
Plug in and ride
Performance-wise, the Altis Delta matches or exceeds many gas pit bikes — with a fraction of the maintenance and operating cost.
Price-to-Performance: Altis Wins Again
Here’s the knockout punch:
-
Altis Delta: $3,599
-
Talaria XXX: $3,550
-
Sur-Ron LBX: $4,500
For roughly the same money as a Talaria — and nearly $1,000 less than a Sur-Ron — you get:
-
More power
-
Higher speed
-
Better brakes
-
More range
-
Better stock components
There’s simply no better value electric dirt bike on the market right now.
