simicrintz 177 Posted January 9, 2021 Buddy of mine in Santa Cruz just picked one up and says it is a blast; anyone around here rode one? https://lunacycle.com/sur-ron-x-bike-black-edition/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Huntndogs 114 Posted January 9, 2021 Two guys I don’t know in the neighborhood got them, they ride up the street heading into the hills. I know when they go by because it sounds like a couple Kitchen Aid mixers rolling up the street. They look fun.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dirt dame 521 Posted January 9, 2021 I rode one a while back, out at McCain. It was a blast. Very light and powerful. I was thinking of getting one a while back. I'm still considering it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
simicrintz 177 Posted January 9, 2021 I'm not ready to make a move on one yet but they sure do look interesting (and stealthy!). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robertaccio 375 Posted January 9, 2021 No on the Sur Ron but I did ride the Swede CAKE recently. It was a blast to ride. For a late model ebike comparison. https://ridecake.com/en/bike-series/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
simicrintz 177 Posted January 9, 2021 How much are those, Robert? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hobiee 28 Posted January 9, 2021 The cakes are 4 times the price. For the full "race" set up anyways Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
simicrintz 177 Posted January 10, 2021 The Sur Ron is one I would definitely have to budget in....... That makes the CAKE bike just a bit farther out! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zubb 1012 Posted January 11, 2021 I'm afraid to ride one of these 'lectric jobbers. I'm afraid I'll like it and start a whole 'nother thing to try to do in my spare time. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robertaccio 375 Posted January 11, 2021 nice Cake viddy at the Swedish national Gotland (well known in world enduro circles) rider Kvarnstrom is a high level pro enduro racer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
simicrintz 177 Posted January 11, 2021 That viddy did NOTHING to talk me out of one! I have the exact same fear, Kelly! I am almost done with my Chevy Volt Lithium battery conversion in my golf cart so my eyes are catching electric stuff currently (no pun intended!)! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
