The 2025 Surron Ultra Bee and 2026 Zero XE are two of the most compelling mid-weight electric dirt bikes on the market right now (as of June, 2025).

The Arctic Leopard XE PRO S wasn’t exactly on our radar—but after our first ride, we think it should be on yours.

Old-School Desert Vibes Meet High-Voltage Machines Pulling up to the 2025 Biltwell 100 felt a bit like showing up at a race a half century ago.

The original Ventus One made a big splash when it launched. It was lightweight, fast, and fully tunable right out of the box. With the new One Plus, Ventus didn’t change the core formula.
