Im Jerry and Im a Sur-Ron owner. Yes, i fell victim to it too, even bought extra battery. Then more, but I really used for the pits at the race track. Even using it there, its racing. Watching this guy on this bike shows what its capable of since he is a talented rider. It reminds me of 2nd and 3rd gear on a V4R Ducati...Since you made this video, has any news changed on USA deliveries yet? By the way, I love my Sur-Ron, its a good well built bike and for the money, hard to argue with real world 35 miles of terrain, and still had juice too after a couple hours of riding. Like all things, its a good starting point, very interested in the power of this bike, it appears to have all you can ask for based on watching your acceleration points, us like like minded....um.... "Throttle Engineers", that was your first ride. Think of it in 20 days of riding it....hopefully a very short list of "Do Nots" that will ultimately tell us if its a good fast and stable bike. I like the look of it, Luna should be on top of this one, and possibly the ending of Sur-Ron with Segway buying into Sur-Ron.. I wouldnt want a company to exist and outselling their bikes, for less money, This bike here from Czech, looks promising
Very little clunking on this model, impressive. Compared to internal combustion dirt bikes electric ones always sound broken since they produce no brap to mask the banging around lol
I dont understand why other companies won't follow suit. They keep trying to make some premium machine thats costs a ton of money. Make something budget friendly and it will actually sell.
Kinda agree I just don't see that much metal and components to warrant the big price....it's sexy as f tho sur ron look carp compair to drill one slayer,vector,bear bike,falcon it's a shame as it's all there when done up! I think it's the old school tank design I hate it.
The other feature on Drill One not many know about is it comes with changeable motor axis sprockets - that with a simple tool in 3 seconds can be changed out for adjusting motor torque and riding conditions and terrain. So now with the changeable maps , adjustable footpegs and adjustable rear suspension geometry pivot points. Its very easy to find your best custom setup. This helps when riding hard and fast - which is what this bike is made for. We love SurRons too and brilliant value or their money - (in fact they are silly under priced by the Chinese) so any Dirt E Bike after SurRon pricing may look expensive. if you look beyond price to the value of the complete package and you want to ride green and sick of fumes pollution and loud gas noise of KTM -etc.. this is an option. yes you wont get the range of gas bike of course ...but it depends where your own compromised break even position for doing something good for the environment and getting into new technology sits with you :)
At $9k+ I’d say it’s not a direct comparison to the $3600 Sur Ron. But they are in the same class of emoto bikes (MTB components, handles more like a regular MTB, no pedals, all electric, less than 150lbs).
On paper, I agree. In reality, no, not unless you leave it stock and just ride it on the street. Once you add up the cost of all of those improved components, it's essentially the same price...and you just saved yourself a lot of time and aggravation getting it straight from the factory in a finished state.
i mean the sur ron is waaayyy beter than this drill one, but in my opinion the sur ron is a bit more ugly lower top speed it looks more like a motorcycle and the forks looks like they a bit too thin. so i like the drill one more. but the price hurts
@ATCr Absolutely. The reason I briefly mention the Sur-Ron is exactly what you said above, it is the same class of bike due to their style, weight and components. The price is TBD in the US but will be higher than the Sur-Ron due to it's higher end components. This isn't a comparison video of the Sur-Ron and Drill One.
@@ElectricCycleRider what is your experience, between th sur ron and the drill one of the battery life and the power. is it worth to spend 8000dollars/€ or not ?
1 / How much does it cost. 2 / How long does the battery last in race mods. 3 / How fast is the top end. 4 / How long to fully charge the battery. 5 / Does it have regeneration. 6 / How much are the MX wheels & is the front 21"
Itll be a game changer when they realize they should be putting 3 or 4 speed gear boxes on them. Im really not sure why nobody is thinking about that. The motors are more than capable and so are the batteries. "Give me gears or give me death" i think somebody famous said that once.
@@mshock9637 weight, cost and and engineering complexity (motor is no longer directly in line with the driving sprocket for one). It's better to up the power to the point where you can simply raise the final drive to achieve high speeds, but still have arm snapping torque off the line. A gearbox is not required
@@aidangillett5396 Thats the most ridiculous thing ive ever heard. Thats basically saying that transmissions on cars are stupid and centrifugal clutches and torque converters are just a big fat waste of time? You dont need those if you just build a bigger, stronger, faster engine... right?
@@aidangillett5396 As for a gearbox design. Take the guts from a quad.... and make it work. Build to finish in just 2 easy steps. Wheres all the old fashioned American ingenuity these days. Youd be amazed at what you can accomplish with a welder and a pile of garbage my friend.
@@mshock9637 You do realize this is an electric motor right? Not an internal combustion engine. They have VASTLY different power and operating characteristics. An internal combustion engine puts out utterly sweet fuck all torque at very low RPM and has a rising torque curve and a relatively low operating RPM range. This is why you need a gearbox...... they're very weak and inefficient without them. Electric motors can operate from 0rpm with massive torque and have a vastly wider operating range. That is why you don't need a gearbox. You cannot do the same with with petrol/diesel engines in a car or bike use case.
@@houseofsolomon2440 There was a video here on YT but in Polish that I saw. It had close captioning the translated what they were saying. Not sure if it's still up.
@@houseofsolomon2440 It takes a lot of work and investment to get quality right on these bikes. Usually takes multiple generations. Like cars when they say never buy the first model year, but much worse with a small company.
I've had two of the original bikes for over a year in South Florida and they are just flat out AWESOME! I own multiple Sur-ron's and wish these came out sooner as the surr-ron are now the loaner bikes for friends to ride as we never touch them anymore. I have to say for the performance and reliability of the two demo bikes I have been better than my sur-ron's. I've had to tow the sur-rons home behind it a few times and this was even after a good thrashing and still, plenty of battery left. Don't get me wrong the sur-ron's are great play biles like an XR 80. But the Drill is more of a purpose-built bike in comparison as it comes with much more capable suspension and a real frame that handles anything you can throw at it. The Drill is much more fun and can take you anywhere you can think of. The Drill has multiple power levels you can ride it in and in the medium mode is so much fun to ride and still offers more performance than the Sur-ron. I like all the bikes and just wish the sur-ron was a bit bigger and tougher as you have to be careful on it or you'll break parts. I have 1 stock and two modded sur-ron's and even with the 84v setup and the nucular 24F controller on the sur-ron with full fox suspension, it's not comparable to the Drill as a whole riding such a small package. I was never able to fold or break the MTB front wheel even jumping off 10ft step down at 40mph the only problem is it would wash out easily in the corners when were racing because it was so narrow and light as the front basically skated at al times when you're on the power. If you install a real front fender the bike looks so much better. I'm here sharing my opinion as this bike flat out incredible to experience. I sold our big bore dirt bikes and we just have a fleet of new generation of electric dirt bikes. We have zero regrets about the Drill and enjoy them regularly. Yes, and without question, it's a Sur-ron Destroyer! Most importantly you have to remember you are not comparing apples to apples here.
@@rayheppner8391 Yes, the bikes Bob designed were the first and now Drill is tuned and more complete production version. I have been able to put these bikes through just about everything I could think of and the only thing I have to maintain is the chains as the enormous amounts of torque stretches them. I've had 2 chains on the bike so far as the power is way too much fun! The best part of these bikes is the reliability has been extremely impressive as my son and myself ride hard and love to use the power and have the bikes tweaked. The wheel combos are something that is important as by getting a stronger lighter wheel on the bike it extended the range and overall battery performance. I see too many people add bigger tires and wheels to the sur-rons and they don't realize the loss of power and performance even on a bike like a drill as the thinner more aggressive tire is much better all-around by keeping the weight and drag down. I have seen it with all my bikes and prefer lighter, narrower, more aggressive setup as these bikes are so light they bite good with anything and the wheel speed is much better all around. I have a custom-built 1.4 on the front and it has made the bike react similar to the lightweight MTB wheel only with a ton of traction.
Can’t wait to see the progression of this industry, will be cool to see some new players in the game. I hope price will come down or someone will make a more affordable unit similar to Sur Ron price.
At the rate they are progressing you soon will need a motorcycle license to drive them. along with kids being kids and accidents at speed, watched people riding down road blocking traffic and being stupid on them, It will ruin this and get it regulated to death. JMO
@@josephschultz4097 Here in Québec, a scooter can be driven with a normal license. It only has to be maxed out at 70 kph, no power limit, plated and DOT helmet mandatory. As for price, sur-ron are very cheap for what they are. An electric bicycle is almost the same price ! Granted components are very similar but just the big battery should kick the price around the 7'000 $. But yeah, since the sur-ron is only about 1'500 $ more than a Honda Ruckus, there's no reason for a young chap to skip the gaz money.
My biggest concern in watching you ride at this pace and speed is that the front tire is NOT made to take that kind of punishment (speed x force x weight x impact is much greater than on a mountain bike). But damned that looks so crazy fun!
@@allanshpeley4284 I know, and that is why I commented. I used to ride motocross and bent many a rim! I know they have tested thoroughly when designing but I can't help but pucker up a bit when I see guys get tremendous air or bang hard off boulders! I'm seriously impress and no on I knew when I was young even attempted this stuff. It's like the difference between skateboarding in the 70s(my era) and the crazyness of boarding now.
I’ve seen one of those go before. It was in Return of the Jedi when Luke was chasing those storm troopers through the forest. LOL That thing is a bullet!
Awesome bike! Pretty amazing how light it is. Also, I think that Elka is actually made for a mini race quad. Interesting that they chose it over a typical mtb shock
Sign me up!! that bike badass!! I do a lot of downhill blasting through rock gardens and root section with regular mountain bike wheels,, so i think its fine the way it is if your light on the bike and pick your lines right those wheels will do just fine
Cant believe you got to ride one bud.Ive watched these Rex (I think they started life as)bikes for a good 6months now and they are the top of there class no question!The only thing is it should be belt driven as the point of a ev bike is to ride under the radar and that small tight sprocket helps make alot of noise.Great ride as always bud and more on this bike pls
@Fpvlee Thanks for the note man! I saw some of your responses to the challenging comments and appreciate your knowledge on this stuff as well. Helps to have your perspective and I agree with what you're saying. More to come soon and glad to have you along for the ride! 👍
@@ElectricCycleRider No thank you bud love the content and adds real substance as you can ride like a beast👌Yeah yt comments section are a rat's nest of ugly comments some times as you know bud, important thing is not bite and leave before you become one of them in response.Keep it up bud👊
thanks for input great ridin, man it boggles my mind the steps we are making in this direction...wow...the change came fast...2022 going crazy.. I see tones of bike parks with rentals like thjis !
@@thomasrustan2577 I look at that machine and yes it looks like a lot of fun there's no doubt it's an awesome bike but I just don't see $10,000 of bike there.
As a Sur-Rom owner, I’m interested. I really love my Sur-Ron but who would not want 3X more power? My bike has the 58 tooth sprocket on it now and that helps with low end power up hills but reduced top speed to 38MPH. For me it is a toss up between the 54 and the 58 tooth sprocket. Would be awesome if I could just have the 48 tooth that came with it installed and still have the low end power of the 58 without losing the top end power and speed. Seems like this bike could do just that.
All that power at the motor means nothing without a battery that can handle it. Amp hours times voltage gives you the wattage the battery can handle. I've yet to see a bike advertising massive kilowatt motors with a battery that can use more than 4000watts of it
I'm real curious to know how long will a full charge last in red mode, truly considering buying a drill one 21" model over the sur Ron what's your thoughts??
My only complaint with this machine is the way the motor is exposed and kind of hangs down. I live in Western Oregon and have to hop lots of logs / trees & bigger rocks. I see this motor as not gliding across 18" logs with out hanging up and taking damage. Needing a heavy bash skid plate
How much is it? When can we get them? My friend just got a suron almost 5k to his door and it looks like a Lil kids bike cuz hes a bigger guy. Its awesome. But I would like a bigger bike!
Go to czem pro web site. Find the distributor for your country. Contact them. It’s around 8-9k USD. 8kEuro and Aussie $15k It’s definitely not a SurRon price-wise or performance wise. Some are questioning its price ... ok sure ..but you can’t question the real value here until you test it and personalise that. Some will actually have that opportunity now CZEM have brought it to USA and Australia.
Would like to see a longer close up walk around. Zoom in to frame and welds, adjustable points for pegs and geometry and chain tension. Cockpit details, throttle and brakes, motor and chain drive, controller and program parameters. A segue 260 vrs this bike, which one would you purchase ? Thanks for showing us the new tech!!
$9k 55mph 2.5hrs range 3.5hrs charge time Also the noise comes from the motor and controller not the chain. You dont hear bicycles going down the road makin all sorts of stupid noise.
Yes and no,If the you have a small motor sprocket it makes these sorts of noise from the chain as it forces the chain to take take a very tight path.And no why would you hear these sorts of noises on a pedal bike lololol
@@fpvlee1586 Ok how about a normal motorcycle thats still got its factory exhaust. The only time you hear the chain is if its dry. You cant hear the chain over all the chatter from the controller and motor. Have you ever played with a modern battery powered RC truck or car? When they power up some even use those noises as a notification that everything is good. No chain on any of my rc cars and they make the same noises.
That sound is called Electric torque, once you feel it with the whine you would change your mind unless you're just biased going into it. Plus I'd rather ride my KTM freeride EXC than my KX450F as it's just 100% much more fun. Don't knock until you try it. You seem very information Biased as it also sounds much different than the camera portrays and much quieter too as cameras pick up different frequencies than our ears. Doh! 2,5 hours range, I want to see you run some serious single track for 2.5 hours straight. 2.5 hours is actually a long time, charging is irrelevant as you can charge it in 45 to 60 min if you want to with a higher amp charger. The only time you hear the chain is when it's dry? Are we talking street or dirt here? Do you even ride? Serious questions?
This Drill One Bike looks really impressive! If I got one, I'd probably start it off in (Green) Ecco Mode just to get a feel for the bikes ride and mannerisms as well as cockpit/suspension adjustments for the first week before introducing myself to the (Blue Mode).
In the Czech Republic, it is called RevX and costs about 8000 euros. Normally no one rides here because it does not have homologation so you can not go on the road to bike paths. Just to the forest, fields, meadows ....
I did some converting of their power numbers. I have a ktm 350 which I'll use for comparison. It has 34hp and 22ft-lbs. This has 20hp and 29ft-lbs. That is insane for something this light. You could get into real trouble on this thing. I want one.
Wow that’s one cool bike I have a Sur-Ron X and I simply love it but that new bike that you have from the Czech republic is awesome how much is it gonna cost and when will it be available I will sell my My bike and get that one in a heartbeat heck I would even sell my wife to get one of them their bikes!
This is a pretty standard question for any electric vehicle. Your riding in Red mode and Blue mode looked fast and fun. But how many minutes of that type of riding will the battery provide. I suspect that it's good, but confirmation would be nice. Also, can you charge the battery using one of those cool and compact petrol generators that caravanners use?
intra morph so. Don’t forget to change from a stock SurRon: the seat. Foot Pegs. Riser bars, Suspension front and back shock. 21 inch front wheel , tyres. + labour cost of building battery and fitting nucular or ASI controller. have Done all of this stuff to several SurRons .. and no it won’t beat Drill - these are different motors. drill one also uses Sony Murata VTC6 high amp discharge cells and runs a 48v system for safety and long term performance .. not a modded 72v low amp cells to burning point. ??? Once you get up over 12kw on a SurRon - the motor loses efficiency. And no of course Drill and SurRon should not be compared ..but they will be of course for marketing ..As in the USA there are now thousands of SurRons. CZEM Drill one is a boutique player and not looking to break into SurRon market. they are Looking though to break into the big boys - KTM and husky market & Convert some of the hard core gas enduro riders. You boys who ride the cute kids bike - SurRon are not the target at all. 😆
ElectricCycleRider How much battery did you use on this test lap? Would you estimate the range would be similar to Surron or more? Looking forward to further reviews on this bike as I really like this platform.
Not only that but, you can't get one so there is no comparison! Also my Sur Ron weighs 110 lbs and you could almost buy two sur ron's for the price of this (vapor wear) bike
This aint killin no sur ron. Stealth bomber eater maybe but my sur slightly modded my sur ron with my 220lbs ass on it goes 54mph and i can sir on the battery and still torque the front end up. I do like this bike a lot but syr rin killer its not.
@@andrewhunt4777 Not according to the stats it wont. My controller is 120 amp as opposed to the stick 80 amp. I get 54 out of mine on the road with knobby tires and my big ass.
@@mshock9637 Get on a track or trail and see what would happen.You would not even be close behind this bike.This bike has way more power than what you have.Even a straight line drag race you loose.
What a machine.. real quality right there, love it. Shame the price is a bit steep, I think I'd just stump up the extra 2k for a Stark Varg. You certainly know how to ride brother..
Well done Tucker on not falling off mate. :) its a really great bike 70 mm taller than SurRon and 90mm in length shorter - its easy to throw around and very compact and power to weight ratio is insane.. it may be the Electric Emoto game changer some of us have been waiting for and encourage gas trail riders to go green..? We actually call these type of Freeride light Emotos Dirt E Bikes.. get it? :) Dirty bikes.. its name you should get used to.. We are the Aussie and Nz distributors. Feel free to ask us any questions about this bike. 👍
I'd really like to learn more about the range of the bike compared to the Sur Ron. I'm sure it varies widely depending on the way you ride it but still would be nice to have some sort of test like you've done in the past!
Because it's every gear heads nature to upgrade and hot rod their rides. By the time you add up the cost of all of those components, you're in the same price range and it looks like a superior bike. Plus you just saved yourself a ton of time that can be spent riding the bike instead of trying to find parts.
Also in the EU the VAT tax is baked into the price of the bike, which is +20%. That should come off the top. Just the fact that it looks like they already have 2 resellers gives me hope. Competition should drive the cost down. Luna can shit all over us if they wanted to and we have no alternative...pick your favorite color: black, black or black.
@CJ Moto The reason I briefly mention the Sur-Ron in my review is because they are a very similar category of bike. As @Richi Bob mentioned, the bikes weigh almost the same, use the style suspension, brakes, handlebars, stem, wheels, mid-drive electric motors. The price on the Drill One is TBD as it's not technically for sale in the US yet but it will cost more than the Sur-Ron due to it's higher end components. And as @Troy Muni pointed out, a lot of Sur-Ron owners are spending a lot of money upgrading their Sur-Rons. Not trying to put down the Sur-Ron here, I have plenty of videos about that bike too. Hard to ride this CZEM and not juxtapose it to a Sur-Ron.
God dam I fell off my chair watching this video on my 70” TV I thought I was the one on this bike. Man am I glad I don’t watch this on my VR or shit I might have flown out of my second-story window. Man this video was insane watching it at the speed!
I just got my drill one a few weeks ago and sold it today. IT IS NOT A SUR-RON Destroyer. I don't know what they were thinking but I can't get the thing to stop shutting down on me due to heat. They're running a very low voltage 48v battery at insane amps (amps=heat). Any time I try to mob it turns off on me (with in a few minutes), maybe I should get sponsored by them because this bike can't keep up. WHEN I CALLED they informed me that it's not supposed to be a dirt bike and that its actually a trials bike... OTHER THEN THAT, I swapped out the front fork to FOX 40s and the bike feels amazing. Overall I would not recommend this bike to anyone that wants to mob. My Sur Ron with an ASI controller is literally twice the bike and hasn't shut off on me yet.
@@hidros1461 it won't help much. Electric motors have programable insane RPMs. The electric motor has more torque at 1rpm than at 100rpm unlike a gas engine who has most torque at it's max rpm. If Tesla isn't using them on their cars I'd because they don't really work. But I do understand 100% where you are coming from. It's hella confusing and new.
That looks crazy fun .. and I ride a modded KDX220R. This is what I think of when I look at the Vector Vortex, which has the size and seat height to be close to what we know as modern dirt bikes.
Basic price 7.890 EUR (about 8500$)....is it surron destroyer?)) I can tell you something 3600$ - surron 1500$ - new battery with real 100 km range 500$ - used fork (Fox 40, Marzocchi, Manitou Dorado) 500$ rear shock ------------------------------ 6000$ - Super Surron))) And good news - you really can start from basic 3600$ version and have lot of fun with it.
Ok, so they do have a website - British based - and this bike is priced at the equivalent of $9,414.00. Are you kidding? I can walk into my nearest motorcycle dealer and get a two stroke 300cc enduro bike for less.
Im boycotting China on human rights abuses. I refuse to buy a sur ron because they are made in China. How long do I have to wait for these Czech bikes to be avalible in America?
Presto, although it's great to see that you stand up to China's human rights abuse, it would be way more useful to stand up for the human rights abuse right here. We are going through the worst human rights protests right here right now, in the last 50 years. But still people don't even take notice. I guess it's like that saying says,"Covid is like racism until you experience it first hand you don't get it."
@@zamboreny4374 People are being killed for their organs. I could care less about the leftist riots. When the morons on left wanna get serious about police abuse they need to change the rules that allow cops to get away with murder. Go protest the PD unions you idiots
@presto. The test bike is in USA as your distributor is getting ready to sell.. just as we are too in Aust as distributors in waiting.. We test the bikes and give them to popular you tubers and moto riders - this is the way all small numbered boutique manufacturers work with distribution/ testing etc. expect 2 - 3 months maybe less .. is realistic it will happen .. hope this helps.
Really exciting emoto here and the insane amount of watts is impressive too. My Sur Ron X weighs 110 lbs. fresh out of the box and all put together stock. I wonder if they have gotten lighter over the years.
@BUD WHITE I do believe I mis-spoke on the weight of the Sur-Ron in the video. I believe they are approximately 110 pounds as you say. That is my bad!! Thanks for the note 👍
for you guys reference, the ESC of my surron X dies within half year, I only ride it like once a week, so its cheap for a reason. I got a 17inch MX Tire at the rear and 58T ChainRing(May be the excessive load kills the ESC :< ) The DNM is POS (Twisted after Charging some Upstairs, Replace it with old Marzocchi 380) Brake Levers are POS (Completely Broke when I Drop my bike at a slow Bail condition, Replaced with Shimanos, the Hydro-line routing for the rear sucks) Upgrade to 26inch Front Wheel Finally, feel much Better

Seriously though. 3 sur Ron's for you and friends with mods. Or one of these. 🤔
Amazing how quickly they are evolving.
Itll be a game changer when they realize they should be putting 3 or 4 speed gear boxes on them. Im really not sure why nobody is thinking about that. The motors are more than capable and so are the batteries.
"Give me gears or give me death" i think somebody famous said that once.
@@mshock9637 weight, cost and and engineering complexity (motor is no longer directly in line with the driving sprocket for one). It's better to up the power to the point where you can simply raise the final drive to achieve high speeds, but still have arm snapping torque off the line. A gearbox is not required
@@aidangillett5396
Thats the most ridiculous thing ive ever heard. Thats basically saying that transmissions on cars are stupid and centrifugal clutches and torque converters are just a big fat waste of time? You dont need those if you just build a bigger, stronger, faster engine... right?
@@aidangillett5396
As for a gearbox design.
Take the guts from a quad.... and make it work. Build to finish in just 2 easy steps.
Wheres all the old fashioned American ingenuity these days. Youd be amazed at what you can accomplish with a welder and a pile of garbage my friend.
@@mshock9637 You do realize this is an electric motor right? Not an internal combustion engine. They have VASTLY different power and operating characteristics. An internal combustion engine puts out utterly sweet fuck all torque at very low RPM and has a rising torque curve and a relatively low operating RPM range. This is why you need a gearbox...... they're very weak and inefficient without them. Electric motors can operate from 0rpm with massive torque and have a vastly wider operating range. That is why you don't need a gearbox.
You cannot do the same with with petrol/diesel engines in a car or bike use case.
I'd love to see a back to back test with the KTM.
You need to do a comparison video of this bike vs the KTM free ride and KTM 500 like you did with the Sur Ron. Great video 👍
lets b honest, there is only 1 power mode
😂 I concur!! 👍🏼
So it doesn’t have a gear box or nothin ?
@@AllenMackenzie no electric vehicles have gearboxes
porsche taycan turbo has a 2 speed gearbox and its electric
@@poppajack5332 my point was there’s no need for them except if you want to change torque ratios
'Going to tone it down a little', next shot is going light speed through the trees LOL. Nice review, looks fun
9k not bad for all that quality and power. I just might order one when available. Lot of great products coming out of the Czech republic
Problem is the lack of build quality. Up close that bike is truly a mess. Looks good in the video but I wouldn’t take a chance on it.
Bro ,what about Torp bike? 15 kw and 30 kilogrammes.
@@troymuni6120 Where did you / where can we get an up close look ?
Thx in advance!
@@houseofsolomon2440 There was a video here on YT but in Polish that I saw. It had close captioning the translated what they were saying. Not sure if it's still up.
@@houseofsolomon2440 It takes a lot of work and investment to get quality right on these bikes. Usually takes multiple generations. Like cars when they say never buy the first model year, but much worse with a small company.
I've had two of the original bikes for over a year in South Florida and they are just flat out AWESOME! I own multiple Sur-ron's and wish these came out sooner as the surr-ron are now the loaner bikes for friends to ride as we never touch them anymore. I have to say for the performance and reliability of the two demo bikes I have been better than my sur-ron's. I've had to tow the sur-rons home behind it a few times and this was even after a good thrashing and still, plenty of battery left. Don't get me wrong the sur-ron's are great play biles like an XR 80. But the Drill is more of a purpose-built bike in comparison as it comes with much more capable suspension and a real frame that handles anything you can throw at it.
The Drill is much more fun and can take you anywhere you can think of. The Drill has multiple power levels you can ride it in and in the medium mode is so much fun to ride and still offers more performance than the Sur-ron. I like all the bikes and just wish the sur-ron was a bit bigger and tougher as you have to be careful on it or you'll break parts. I have 1 stock and two modded sur-ron's and even with the 84v setup and the nucular 24F controller on the sur-ron with full fox suspension, it's not comparable to the Drill as a whole riding such a small package.
I was never able to fold or break the MTB front wheel even jumping off 10ft step down at 40mph the only problem is it would wash out easily in the corners when were racing because it was so narrow and light as the front basically skated at al times when you're on the power. If you install a real front fender the bike looks so much better. I'm here sharing my opinion as this bike flat out incredible to experience. I sold our big bore dirt bikes and we just have a fleet of new generation of electric dirt bikes.
We have zero regrets about the Drill and enjoy them regularly. Yes, and without question, it's a Sur-ron Destroyer! Most importantly you have to remember you are not comparing apples to apples here.
How did you get 2 of the original bikes a year ago? Do you have the original designers Rev-x bikes?
@@rayheppner8391 Yes, the bikes Bob designed were the first and now Drill is tuned and more complete production version. I have been able to put these bikes through just about everything I could think of and the only thing I have to maintain is the chains as the enormous amounts of torque stretches them. I've had 2 chains on the bike so far as the power is way too much fun! The best part of these bikes is the reliability has been extremely impressive as my son and myself ride hard and love
to use the power and have the bikes tweaked. The wheel combos are something that is important as by getting a stronger lighter wheel on the bike it extended the range and overall battery performance. I see too many people add bigger tires and wheels to the sur-rons and they don't realize the loss of power and performance even on a bike like a drill as the thinner more aggressive tire is much better all-around by keeping the weight and drag down. I have seen it with all my bikes and prefer lighter, narrower, more aggressive setup as these bikes are so light they bite good with anything and the wheel speed is much better all around. I have a custom-built 1.4 on the front and it has made the bike react similar to the lightweight MTB wheel only with a ton of traction.
Good take off, I would love to see more applications on motocross bikes
Can’t wait to see the progression of this industry, will be cool to see some new players in the game. I hope price will come down or someone will make a more affordable unit similar to Sur Ron price.
@DesertDRZ For sure! Us too!
At the rate they are progressing you soon will need a motorcycle license to drive them. along with kids being kids and accidents at speed, watched people riding down road blocking traffic and being stupid on them, It will ruin this and get it regulated to death. JMO
@@josephschultz4097 Yea, I can see immature people being reckless.. I would love one to hit some trails I have here in AZ.
@@josephschultz4097 Here in Québec, a scooter can be driven with a normal license. It only has to be maxed out at 70 kph, no power limit, plated and DOT helmet mandatory.
As for price, sur-ron are very cheap for what they are. An electric bicycle is almost the same price ! Granted components are very similar but just the big battery should kick the price around the 7'000 $.
But yeah, since the sur-ron is only about 1'500 $ more than a Honda Ruckus, there's no reason for a young chap to skip the gaz money.
Greater than I expected small, compacted, easy to use
My biggest concern in watching you ride at this pace and speed is that the front tire is NOT made to take that kind of punishment (speed x force x weight x impact is much greater than on a mountain bike). But damned that looks so crazy fun!
Guys, downhill riders go 50mph regularly and ride much harder than how he's riding. This myth is getting old fast.
@@allanshpeley4284 I know, and that is why I commented. I used to ride motocross and bent many a rim! I know they have tested thoroughly when designing but I can't help but pucker up a bit when I see guys get tremendous air or bang hard off boulders! I'm seriously impress and no on I knew when I was young even attempted this stuff. It's like the difference between skateboarding in the 70s(my era) and the crazyness of boarding now.
my guy is absolutely ripping!
👍
so clean, love it! price is a bit top end comparatively in the space but if it were about 6k ish I think it would win a lot of people over in the US
Me! Can kind of justify $4-6k but $10k? I paid less than $3k for my car!
One word = AWESOME
It's all about power to weight ratio.
I'd say you need a chase camera....but you wouldn't see anything but your dust. That's fast!!!!
Super interested in seeing more on this bike. You are the only person I've seen with a video on it so far.
Wow, thing looks insane!

@@ElectricCycleRider Just wanted to say this was a great review. What characteristics do you like most about the Drill?
@@ElectricCycleRider Damn, I finally decided to get a Sur Ron after looking at dozens of ebikes for the past year. Then I stumbled on this video 😑

Wow some machine
I’ve seen one of those go before. It was in Return of the Jedi when Luke was chasing those storm troopers through the forest. LOL
That thing is a bullet!
@BBarnes 😆
Awesome bike! Pretty amazing how light it is. Also, I think that Elka is actually made for a mini race quad. Interesting that they chose it over a typical mtb shock

Sign me up!! that bike badass!!
I do a lot of downhill blasting through rock gardens and root section with regular mountain bike wheels,, so i think its fine the way it is if your light on the bike and pick your lines right those wheels will do just fine
Cant believe you got to ride one bud.Ive watched these Rex (I think they started life as)bikes for a good 6months now and they are the top of there class no question!The only thing is it should be belt driven as the point of a ev bike is to ride under the radar and that small tight sprocket helps make alot of noise.Great ride as always bud and more on this bike pls
Drill One stole design from REVX

10 grand? Yeah, no, I would rather use that for a new 125 smoker.
I am going to wsit for this one to hit the US..best one I have researched!! Can not wait!!
As a Sur-Rom owner, I’m interested. I really love my Sur-Ron but who would not want 3X more power? My bike has the 58 tooth sprocket on it now and that helps with low end power up hills but reduced top speed to 38MPH.
For me it is a toss up between the 54 and the 58 tooth sprocket.
Would be awesome if I could just have the 48 tooth that came with it installed and still have the low end power of the 58 without losing the top end power and speed. Seems like this bike could do just that.
All that power at the motor means nothing without a battery that can handle it. Amp hours times voltage gives you the wattage the battery can handle.
I've yet to see a bike advertising massive kilowatt motors with a battery that can use more than 4000watts of it
I'm real curious to know how long will a full charge last in red mode, truly considering buying a drill one 21" model over the sur Ron what's your thoughts??
Daaamn brother your fuckin Rippin through the woods with that thing!
@Mass Trauma It goes quick! 👍
I would be interested to see some steeper terrain. I have heard that powerful bikes are hard to manage on technical-steep climbs.
You need a clutch for tech stuff. I would say any bike without it isn't suited for hard enduro terrain.
Enjoy you using the same track consistently to compare different models. That thing is snappy.
Would love to see a review on the track!
I love you're style of videos! Always straight up rippin 😎
@Alice Black Thanks!! 👍
Even at my age of 66 still have a need for speed, thinking about selling my tricked out Rad, got the link to this bike
55 and considering selling the RAD too! Have you seen the Sur Ron w/Lite Speed battery and controller? supposedly 5X more power then stock Sur Ron.
Definitely a nice bike....Would like to see an off the bike video so we can see how it runs, the speed, suspension working, handling etc. Thanks
My only complaint with this machine is the way the motor is exposed and kind of hangs down. I live in Western Oregon and have to hop lots of logs / trees & bigger rocks. I see this motor as not gliding across 18" logs with out hanging up and taking damage. Needing a heavy bash skid plate
That thing looks so clean
How much is it?
When can we get them?
My friend just got a suron almost 5k to his door and it looks like a Lil kids bike cuz hes a bigger guy. Its awesome. But I would like a bigger bike!
Go to czem pro web site. Find the distributor for your country. Contact them. It’s around 8-9k USD. 8kEuro and Aussie $15k It’s definitely not a SurRon price-wise or performance wise. Some are questioning its price ... ok sure ..but you can’t question the real value here until you test it and personalise that. Some will actually have that opportunity now CZEM have brought it to USA and Australia.
That's a fine example of quality Czech Engineering! The body style is similar to the Winder that Ladi offers. This beauty is a Museum Piece already!
When do you think the major manufacturers are going to release full on electric motocross machines?
Thx for the review, I didn't know that we have this company in Czech republic
@MrBThorn Thanks for watching!
Would be nice to see a comparison between the Drill One, Sur Ron X and the KTM Free ride. Looking to get an electric bike.
Would like to see a longer close up walk around. Zoom in to frame and welds, adjustable points for pegs and geometry and chain tension. Cockpit details, throttle and brakes, motor and chain drive, controller and program parameters. A segue 260 vrs this bike, which one would you purchase ? Thanks for showing us the new tech!!
@Gary Linnert Copy that! I'll keep it in mind for the next video. Thanks for the note.
Gaaawd, what an awesome trail!
I guess with full throttle in flat terrain Range will be limited to 25-30 miles . Battery capacity is still a limitation for any ebike / e-motorbike
$9k
55mph
2.5hrs range
3.5hrs charge time
Also the noise comes from the motor and controller not the chain. You dont hear bicycles going down the road makin all sorts of stupid noise.
Yes and no,If the you have a small motor sprocket it makes these sorts of noise from the chain as it forces the chain to take take a very tight path.And no why would you hear these sorts of noises on a pedal bike lololol
@@fpvlee1586
Ok how about a normal motorcycle thats still got its factory exhaust. The only time you hear the chain is if its dry.
You cant hear the chain over all the chatter from the controller and motor. Have you ever played with a modern battery powered RC truck or car? When they power up some even use those noises as a notification that everything is good. No chain on any of my rc cars and they make the same noises.
@@mshock9637 I like the noise my rc car makings whine noises too
That sound is called Electric torque, once you feel it with the whine you would change your mind unless you're just biased going into it. Plus I'd rather ride my KTM freeride EXC than my KX450F as it's just 100% much more fun. Don't knock until you try it. You seem very information Biased as it also sounds much different than the camera portrays and much quieter too as cameras pick up different frequencies than our ears. Doh! 2,5 hours range, I want to see you run some serious single track for 2.5 hours straight. 2.5 hours is actually a long time, charging is irrelevant as you can charge it in 45 to 60 min if you want to with a higher amp charger. The only time you hear the chain is when it's dry? Are we talking street or dirt here? Do you even ride? Serious questions?
Im mot complaining about it im just saying its not the chain making all that noise.
This Drill One Bike looks really impressive!
If I got one, I'd probably start it off in (Green) Ecco Mode just to get a feel for the bikes ride and mannerisms
as well as cockpit/suspension adjustments for the first week before introducing myself to the (Blue Mode).
Damn, welcome to the future!
In the Czech Republic, it is called RevX and costs about 8000 euros. Normally no one rides here because it does not have homologation so you can not go on the road to bike paths. Just to the forest, fields, meadows ....
I did some converting of their power numbers. I have a ktm 350 which I'll use for comparison. It has 34hp and 22ft-lbs. This has 20hp and 29ft-lbs. That is insane for something this light. You could get into real trouble on this thing. I want one.
Looks so awesome. Really impressed. Wow! Excellent review as you rip it up.
@Todd Speck Thanks! 👍
Wow that’s one cool bike I have a Sur-Ron X and I simply love it but that new bike that you have from the Czech republic is awesome how much is it gonna cost and when will it be available I will sell my My bike and get that one in a heartbeat heck I would even sell my wife to get one of them their bikes!
This is a pretty standard question for any electric vehicle.
Your riding in Red mode and Blue mode looked fast and fun. But how many minutes of that type of riding will the battery provide. I suspect that it's good, but confirmation would be nice.
Also, can you charge the battery using one of those cool and compact petrol generators that caravanners use?
They‘re not a sur ron killer if they cost more than twice as much. The surron is avaiblo for under 4k dollar an these are all over 7
Also if you add a 72V battery to the surron and the right controller it will beat this bike no problem at half the cost.
intra morph so. Don’t forget to change from a stock SurRon: the seat. Foot Pegs. Riser bars, Suspension front and back shock. 21 inch front wheel , tyres. + labour cost of building battery and fitting nucular or ASI controller. have Done all of this stuff to several SurRons .. and no it won’t beat Drill - these are different motors. drill one also uses Sony Murata VTC6 high amp discharge cells and runs a 48v system for safety and long term performance .. not a modded 72v low amp cells to burning point. ??? Once you get up over 12kw on a SurRon - the motor loses efficiency. And no of course Drill and SurRon should not be compared ..but they will be of course for marketing ..As in the USA there are now thousands of SurRons. CZEM Drill one is a boutique player and not looking to break into SurRon market. they are Looking though to break into the big boys - KTM and husky market & Convert some of the hard core gas enduro riders. You boys who ride the cute kids bike - SurRon are not the target at all. 😆
Should be called Murder One. Looks great. Although I was expecting a video of bike made with cordless drill.
Looks great! Would definitely get one instead of a Sur-Ron.
ElectricCycleRider How much battery did you use on this test lap? Would you estimate the range would be similar to Surron or more? Looking forward to further reviews on this bike as I really like this platform.
Only a sur ron killer if the price was similar. Its $9500 which is similar to KTM or Zero.
Not only that but, you can't get one so there is no comparison! Also my Sur Ron weighs 110 lbs and you could almost buy two sur ron's for the price of this (vapor wear) bike
This aint killin no sur ron. Stealth bomber eater maybe but my sur slightly modded my sur ron with my 220lbs ass on it goes 54mph and i can sir on the battery and still torque the front end up. I do like this bike a lot but syr rin killer its not.
@@mshock9637 If you are not running an ASI or Nucular 24f with a 72v battery this bike would crush the little Sur-ron you ride.
@@andrewhunt4777
Not according to the stats it wont. My controller is 120 amp as opposed to the stick 80 amp. I get 54 out of mine on the road with knobby tires and my big ass.
@@mshock9637 Get on a track or trail and see what would happen.You would not even be close behind this bike.This bike has way more power than what you have.Even a straight line drag race you loose.
As usual Tucker nice first ride review.

What a machine.. real quality right there, love it. Shame the price is a bit steep, I think I'd just stump up the extra 2k for a Stark Varg.
You certainly know how to ride brother..
Dang snappy.. sounds great.. like a mad bumblebee on crack! 😂
Thanks
✌️PT
Sounds like you know what you're talking about!
Well done Tucker on not falling off mate. :) its a really great bike 70 mm taller than SurRon and 90mm in length shorter - its easy to throw around and very compact and power to weight ratio is insane.. it may be the Electric Emoto game changer some of us have been waiting for and encourage gas trail riders to go green..? We actually call these type of Freeride light Emotos Dirt E Bikes.. get it? :) Dirty bikes.. its name you should get used to.. We are the Aussie and Nz distributors. Feel free to ask us any questions about this bike. 👍
@Sales EBMX Haha, thanks! Appreciate the note. 👍
Omg i watching and i feel like i need a helmet lolllll
Sounds really good too!
Damn. Race that thing against the ktm
I'd really like to learn more about the range of the bike compared to the Sur Ron. I'm sure it varies widely depending on the way you ride it but still would be nice to have some sort of test like you've done in the past!
@pws18 Good call! I'll add that to the list, thank you.
Over 9000 dollars why are you comparing the two lol
They got same size.
Because it's every gear heads nature to upgrade and hot rod their rides. By the time you add up the cost of all of those components, you're in the same price range and it looks like a superior bike. Plus you just saved yourself a ton of time that can be spent riding the bike instead of trying to find parts.
Also in the EU the VAT tax is baked into the price of the bike, which is +20%. That should come off the top. Just the fact that it looks like they already have 2 resellers gives me hope. Competition should drive the cost down. Luna can shit all over us if they wanted to and we have no alternative...pick your favorite color: black, black or black.
@CJ Moto The reason I briefly mention the Sur-Ron in my review is because they are a very similar category of bike. As @Richi Bob mentioned, the bikes weigh almost the same, use the style suspension, brakes, handlebars, stem, wheels, mid-drive electric motors. The price on the Drill One is TBD as it's not technically for sale in the US yet but it will cost more than the Sur-Ron due to it's higher end components. And as @Troy Muni pointed out, a lot of Sur-Ron owners are spending a lot of money upgrading their Sur-Rons. Not trying to put down the Sur-Ron here, I have plenty of videos about that bike too. Hard to ride this CZEM and not juxtapose it to a Sur-Ron.
I just watched a review of this Drill One with sub titles and it looks like a complete turd.
I rode both bikes today the Drill one and the Sur Ron , and the Drill one is WOW power , compared to the sur Ron ,
Would like shots of the bike while he was describing it at the end.
@Paul A Westcott Copy that. Thanks for the feedback.
I would love to see a sur-ron VS CZEM drill one head to head comparison.
EBMX ( Aust) will be doing one in February.
Holy Shit!
I want the crap out of this!! Quick, someone give me some lotto numbers!
Would be nice to see a heads up with the Sur Ron X and also the KTM Free ride.
Jezus christ that thing is fast. Youll blast away all the ktm500’s on this thing. So light and powerful
God dam I fell off my chair watching this video on my 70” TV I thought I was the one on this bike. Man am I glad I don’t watch this on my VR or shit I might have flown out of my second-story window. Man this video was insane watching it at the speed!
@Zapper Haha!
Sounds like an 1/8 rc race buggy.
Sweet ride, looks a bit tall for my short legs, an adjustable seat hight would be cool
Ok send one to my channel next for review. Looks like a great quiet campsite Explorer!
I just got my drill one a few weeks ago and sold it today. IT IS NOT A SUR-RON Destroyer. I don't know what they were thinking but I can't get the thing to stop shutting down on me due to heat. They're running a very low voltage 48v battery at insane amps (amps=heat). Any time I try to mob it turns off on me (with in a few minutes), maybe I should get sponsored by them because this bike can't keep up.
WHEN I CALLED they informed me that it's not supposed to be a dirt bike and that its actually a trials bike...
OTHER THEN THAT, I swapped out the front fork to FOX 40s and the bike feels amazing.
Overall I would not recommend this bike to anyone that wants to mob. My Sur Ron with an ASI controller is literally twice the bike and hasn't shut off on me yet.
Imagine putting a 6 speed gear box on this thing, easy 100mph +
It would help very little actually. An electric motor delivers its maximum torque at zero RPM. And RPMs can be handled via controller software.
@@JuanJDumeP thats what a gear box is for to give you more speed. Gearing is everything
@@hidros1461 it won't help much. Electric motors have programable insane RPMs. The electric motor has more torque at 1rpm than at 100rpm unlike a gas engine who has most torque at it's max rpm. If Tesla isn't using them on their cars I'd because they don't really work. But I do understand 100% where you are coming from. It's hella confusing and new.
@@JuanJDumeP I guess a taller gear would give more mph maybe
@@JuanJDumeP lots of diy electric cars use the stock transmission, you can even use a manual gear box.
That looks crazy fun .. and I ride a modded KDX220R. This is what I think of when I look at the Vector Vortex, which has the size and seat height to be close to what we know as modern dirt bikes.

1500$ - new battery with real 100 km range
500$ - used fork (Fox 40, Marzocchi, Manitou Dorado)
500$ rear shock

6000$ - Super Surron))) And good news - you really can start from basic 3600$ version and have lot of fun with it.
Ok, so they do have a website - British based - and this bike is priced at the equivalent of $9,414.00. Are you kidding? I can walk into my nearest motorcycle dealer and get a two stroke 300cc enduro bike for less.

I like the sound of that bike's engine.
Im boycotting China on human rights abuses. I refuse to buy a sur ron because they are made in China. How long do I have to wait for these Czech bikes to be avalible in America?
Presto, although it's great to see that you stand up to China's human rights abuse, it would be way more useful to stand up for the human rights abuse right here. We are going through the worst human rights protests right here right now, in the last 50 years. But still people don't even take notice.

Really exciting emoto here and the insane amount of watts is impressive too. My Sur Ron X weighs 110 lbs. fresh out of the box and all put together stock. I wonder if they have gotten lighter over the years.
