  • Which electric motocross bike is the best? SUR RON vs CAKE! I put the £10,000 Cake Kalk head to head against the £4500 Sur Ron Light bee to see which electric motocross bike is the best. which bike would you choose?
    I put these electric motocross bikes to the test with trial style features, hill climbs, big jumps and a timed race section to find out which bike is more capable. The Cake Kalk is a £10,000 plus bike and the specs bring this bike out on top with its power output, but the fact this bike is heavier than the lighter Sur Ron bike could make for some interesting results. We start off with a warm up trial feature and see how easy it is to get over a huge fallen log, although my skills probably didn't help the fairness of this challenge so we move on to the head to head race against the clock! After this we head deeper into the woods to find huge hill climbs and sketchy jumps to flat. But most importantly I had the best time ever riding these super fun electric motorbikes for the day! And to finish the video off I show you my new quad bike modification that is absolutely sick! Which bike would you ride?
    I hope you enjoy the video!

    I just love how Sam just picks the hardest obstacle to hit first, no warm up and he just has so much confidence in falling back and stepping off like it's the most natural thing on earth. Just pure talent from years of experience. That was an epic match up comparison. Love the wheelie bars on the quad.

My issue with the super fast, aftermarket specced Sur Ron is the fact that it doesn't have the best componentry, like forks, bars, brakes, etc., so you'd really need to replace all of that, too. All in all, you can make the Sur Ron far better than the Cake and still spend less, but if you truly want to ultimate e-bike, you're at least 15k into a Sur Ron.

    Some good observations really... What I like about the Surron, and I'm a bit bias cuz I own one, is the poachability (my own word). In other words the ability of Surron to adapt to its environment with out raising eyebrows. If I tooling around at 20kmh down a foot path and come across a dog walker they are less likely to be put out by the sight of the Surron.

    The choice is simple, the Sur Ron is E-bike money and you’re getting a lot of bang for your buck, the CAKE is £10,000 which you could buy an actual MX bike easily for which would totally kick its ass in every way. Let’s not forget the UK Laws as well with twist and go and E-bike top speed etc etc, both would have to be transported in a vehicle to somewhere you can ride it so you may as well just get the real version and buy a motorbike… plus for £10,000 I would not wanna be saying “yeah man the weekend was mental was out on the cake” it just sounds lame 😂
