YUME Raptor 2 vs XTRON: how YUME’s dual motor scooters compare
Both run 6,000 W of peak power. The real differences are battery size, suspension, controls and weight, plus two 13 mph versions for riders who want the hardware without the speed.
Talaria vs Surron: how the two electric dirt bike lineups compare
Talaria and Surron cover similar ground in different ways. The real differences are battery size, weight, how many power steps each lineup offers, and which models come road legal.
The short answer
Talaria vs Surron comes down to the size class you want. In the light class, the Surron Light Bee X is the lighter bike at a listed 125.6 lb, while the Talaria Sting R carries a bigger 60V 45Ah battery for about 145 lb. For smaller riders, Surron has the compact Hyper Bee. At the top, the Surron Ultra Bee HP meets the Talaria Sting MX5 Pro, Komodo and Dragon. In our catalog, only Talaria offers road legal versions.
- Light class: the Surron Light Bee X weighs less, and the Talaria Sting R family carries a larger, swappable battery.
- Talaria offers more power steps, from the 60V Stings to the 72V MX5 Pro, the 88V Dragon and the 96V Komodo.
- The Surron Hyper Bee is the smallest bike in either lineup, built for younger and smaller riders.
- Only Talaria offers road legal versions in our catalog: the Sting L3E and the Sting R Road Legal.
The two lineups at a glance
Talaria and Surron (also written Sur-Ron) both build electric dirt bikes for trail riders, from compact bikes to full power models.
- Surron keeps a short ladder: the compact Hyper Bee, the light Light Bee X and the high power Ultra Bee HP SW.
- Talaria offers more steps. The XXX family sits at the light end, the Sting family covers the middle with several trims, and the full size Komodo 2025 and Dragon 2025 sit at the top. Talaria also sells road legal Stings.
Surron makes the choice simple. Talaria gives you more options for power, suspension and street use. See every model on the Talaria brand page and the Surron brand page.
Light trail bikes: Light Bee X vs the Talaria Sting family
This is the matchup most riders mean when they say Talaria vs Surron.
- Surron Light Bee X: an 8 kW peak motor, 196 ft-lb (250 Nm) of torque at the wheel, a removable 60V 40Ah battery, 70/100-19 front and 3.00-18 rear off-road tires, 200 mm of front travel and a forged aluminum frame. Surron lists a 125.6 lb curb weight, an 830 mm seat height (about 32.7 in) and a charge of about 2 hours from 20% to 80%.
- Talaria Sting MX3: a 6 kW peak mid-drive motor with about 209 lb-ft at the wheel, a swappable 60V 38.4Ah battery, adjustable regenerative braking, hydraulic brakes with 8.7 in rotors and about 139 lb with the battery.
- Talaria Sting R Off-Road: an 8 kW peak motor, a swappable 60V 45Ah battery (2,700 Wh), a forged aluminum frame, a 33.1 in seat, 11.8 in of ground clearance and 145 lb with the battery. Talaria quotes about a 3 hour charge.
- Talaria Sting R MX4 Expert: the Sting R with an adjustable Manitou Dorado Expert fork (8 in of travel), a DNM or Fast Ace rear shock and Magura MT-5 hydraulic brakes, for riders who want to tune the suspension.
Weight goes to Surron, battery size goes to Talaria. The Light Bee X is the lightest bike in this group. The Sting R carries 5Ah more battery and Talaria rates it for longer range, but it weighs about 19 lb more. Torque at the wheel is close: 196 ft-lb for the Light Bee X and about 209 lb-ft for the Sting MX3.
Range figures are tested at different speeds. Surron rates the Light Bee X at 46.6 miles at about 25 mph. Talaria rates the Sting R at up to 75 miles at 15.5 mph. A fairer check is the road legal Sting L3E, which uses the same 60V 45Ah pack and is rated at about 53 miles at 25 mph.
| Model | Top speed (mph) | Range (miles) | Motor power (W) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Surron Hyper Bee Electric Dirt Bike | 40 | 35 | – |
| Surron Light Bee X Electric Dirt Bike | 46.6 | 46.6 | – |
| Talaria Sting MX3 Electric Dirt Bike | 47 | 50 | 6,000 |
| Talaria Sting R Off-Road Electric Dirt Bike | 53 | 75 | 8,000 |
| Talaria Sting R MX4 2024 Electric Dirt Bike | 20 | 78 | 8,000 |
| Talaria Sting R MX4 Expert Electric Dirt Bike | 55 | 75 | 8,000 |
| Talaria Sting L3E Road Legal Electric Dirt Bike | 55 | 53 | 6,000 |
Maker figures, checked September 2026. Real range and speed depend on rider weight, terrain, temperature and riding mode.
Smaller riders and first bikes
The Surron Hyper Bee is the smallest bike in either lineup. It sits in the mini and pit size class (16 inch wheels or smaller), and comes in two versions: the 2026 runs a 58V 22Ah battery with 40 mph and up to 35 miles at 25 mph, and the 2025 a 50.4V 25Ah battery with 34 mph and up to 31 miles. It suits younger and smaller riders who are not ready for a full size frame.
Talaria has no mini in our catalog, but its lighter bikes are worth a look. The Talaria X3 (XXX) has a 6.5 kW peak motor, a 40Ah battery, adjustable Talaria suspension, a 19-inch front and 17-inch rear wheel, and a listed chassis weight of about 128 lb. Talaria does not list a top speed for it or for the XXX Black Edition. The Sting R MX4 2024 is limited to 20 mph as delivered, and unlocks to about 47 mph.
Those are full size dirt bike wheels, so check the seat height first. Our guide to electric dirt bike sizes shows how to measure fit.
Big power: Ultra Bee HP vs MX5 Pro, Komodo and Dragon
At the top of each lineup, the bikes get heavier and far stronger. These are for experienced riders.
- Surron Ultra Bee HP SW: 24.5 kW and 384 ft-lb, 0 to 31 mph in 1.84 seconds, a 74V 60Ah battery rated for 71 miles at 31 mph, and a forged aluminum frame. It is listed for off-road use only.
- Talaria Sting MX5 Pro: the Sting moved to 72 volts, with a 72V 40Ah battery (2,880 Wh), a 13.4 kW peak motor with an internal gearbox, upgraded hydraulic calipers and a color screen. Talaria says it has about 45% more power than the 60V Stings.
- Talaria Komodo 2025: a full size off-road electric motorcycle with a 96V 45Ah battery (4,320 Wh), 32 kW peak, 556 lb-ft, 0 to 60 mph in 4.5 seconds, air suspension at both ends, 21/18 inch wheels, a 35.8 in seat and a 216 lb dry weight. Talaria quotes a charge of about 1.5 hours.
- Talaria Dragon 2025: the long range Talaria, with a 28 kW peak mid-drive motor, 465 lb-ft, an 88V 58.5Ah battery (about 5,148 Wh) rated for up to 93 miles at 15.5 mph, a seat of about 35 in and about 220 lb with the battery.
The Ultra Bee HP and the MX5 Pro share a top speed on paper, but the Ultra Bee carries the bigger battery and more power. The Komodo and Dragon step into full size territory, with taller seats and much more weight to manage.
| Model | Top speed (mph) | Range (miles) | Motor power (W) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Surron Ultra Bee HP SW Electric Dirt Bike | 59 | 71 | – |
| Talaria Sting MX5 Pro Electric Dirt Bike | 59 | 75 | 13,400 |
| Talaria Komodo 2025 Electric Dirt Bike | 66 | 71.5 | 32,000 |
| Talaria Dragon 2025 Electric Dirt Bike | 70 | 93 | 28,000 |

Suspension, batteries and charging
- Suspension: the Light Bee X lists 200 mm of front travel. Talaria fits DNM or Fastace suspension on the Sting MX3 and air suspension front and rear on the Komodo.
- Battery access: the Light Bee X battery is removable, and the Sting MX3, Sting R family and Sting L3E use swappable batteries, so a second pack can extend a ride day.
- Charge time: about 3 hours for the Sting R, about 2 hours from 20% to 80% for the Light Bee X, about 1.5 hours for the Komodo and about 4 hours for the Dragon, by the makers’ figures.
Road legal versions
If you want one bike for trails and the street, only Talaria offers that in our catalog. The Talaria Sting L3E Road Legal has Eco and Sport modes, a 60V 45Ah battery, a seat of about 33 in and about 157 lb with the battery. The Talaria Sting R Road Legal comes set up for the street with a swappable 60V 38.4Ah battery. The Surron Ultra Bee HP SW is listed for off-road use only.
