Another electric dirt bike has just cleared a test many riders thought was beyond its limits.

The Stark videos coming out of the Red Bull Erzbergrodeo have definitely grabbed riders' attention. Now it's time to see what the team and the VARG can do when the mountain starts throwing proper punches.

Radian might have just solved the biggest weakness in Stark’s dirt bike empire. The Dutch start-up has entered the electric enduro fight with the EXR, built around swappable batteries, aimed squarely at the one issue some brands still haven’t solved: downtime on the trail.

Built around a compact chassis and swappable high-discharge battery platform, the Hightail combines motocross-inspired geometry with a clutchless electric drivetrain. Dust Moto’s focus here is all about low weight, low maintenance, and delivering a mid powered, flickable riding experience.

LiveWire has acquired DUST Moto, bringing one of the most talked-about lightweight electric dirt bike start-ups under the Harley-backed electric brand’s umbrella.

Adventure bikes are one of the last unmapped routes in the e-moto world. Sports bikes grab headlines, commuters make financial sense, and dirt bikes suit short, savage blasts. ADV though, that's a different game entirely.

Segway’s done playing around in gadget-bike territory. The new Xaber 300 is a direct swing at the Sur-Ron and Talaria crowd, and for the first time, riders might actually take them seriously.

For the last four years, Zero Motorcycles has been quietly turning up and walking away with results at the Biltwell 100. This year not much changed. Different riders, same outcome. Two bikes into the top spots and a clean sweep for a brand that’s starting to treat this event like home turf.

While the rumour mill keeps taking swings at KTM, the Austrians have quietly rolled out something that actually makes us look, progress. The 2027 Freeride E update isn’t a reinvention, but it doesn’t really need to be. But it does show a clear, rider-focused step forward.
