Here is the long version of the review of the Stark Varg MX bike.  

Good


  • It's really great on the MX track - Love how smooth the power is and how easy it is to ride there.  
  • It's so great that you can dial in the exact amount of power that you want. That is a game changer
  • High-speed hill climb bike - it's amazing (not great slow speeds)
  • Love that you are always in the right "gear" because there are no gears.  Always right in the power 
  • Fastest bike I've ever been on  - and it's stable at speed - it feels really planted
  • The range on the bike has gotten better with updates
  • Over-the-air updates are cool; got reverse and forward crawl modes - 
  • Brakes are great
  • Forks are great for desert and MX tracks



Bad

  • Feels heavy when you have to lift the bike - both off-ground and on stands
  • Worst traction on loose, slow climbs - not great in the tight single-track
  • Really sucks the power fast as the track gets lines into it 
  • The range for single-track
  • No Clutch
  • The kickstand is annoying. 
  • The charging cable is too short.
