sorry if I missed it, but is there a electric mountain sled currently available to buy? I've only seen the trail sled.

Won't be available until next winter.

maybe it's just me, but that looks a lot like a G4.


I'd like to test one out for a day for sure.

Any design infringement with that electric G5? Lol


3.3 sec 0-100kmh? Humm I think thats a tad slow or it cannot get the power to the snow.

Did you see the video of it destroying an 850 doo at only 50% power ?

No but id like to see it. A under 100hp esled beating a 850. Im guessing there is more to the story.
Cut the HP for the holeshot than boost it after the sled get out of the hole.


Now that I watched the vid I guess I was correct, the esled got the holeshot but the vid was cut, I wouldn’t say the 850 got beat by looking at it.

can't really tell much from that video haha.

but it looked like a average sled off the line and I'd say that is a good thing.

 

[AreWeThereYet]

I would say the guy riding the doo only cares about wheelies and needs to learn to set up the suspension,.. although this is a gloat video for a tree hugger sled it is to be expected.

Lol yep, and the amount of dirt the esled roosted compared to the others I found interesting as well. 100% power, it may of still of been at the line spinning.

Not bad, but it would of been cool to see the entire race.

I think the sled is still in the R&D stage. will be cool to see on the hill. with 180hp at altitude should be fun, if they can get a battery that gives you enough range for a day of riding.

Its been my experience with drag race set ups that doing a big wheelie is not the formula for success.

160hp 2 stroke sleds only make 50-60 track hp at elevation.

That doesn't seem to slow you down much!
