Thumpstar TSE72 electric bike

Built for riders who want real off-road capability without the fuel, the fumes, or the maintenance, this electric machine delivers instant, brutal torque from a standstill and keeps pulling all the way to a top speed of 53 mph (~85 km/h). With 380 Nm on tap and 8 kW of peak power, it climbs, launches, and accelerates with the kind of immediacy only an electric drivetrain can offer.

At the heart of it sits a 72V 40Ah pack running genuine LG 21700 cells, good for roughly 75 miles (120 km) of range on a charge. Recharge overnight from any standard outlet and roll out again the next morning. No servicing, no oil, no clutch to burn.

The chassis is dialed for the dirt. A 4-piston hydraulic disc brake up front pairs with 220 mm front and 200 mm rear rotors for confident, repeatable stopping, while fully adjustable suspension lets you tune the ride to your weight and terrain. Sized right for aggressive trail work, it runs a 19" front and 18" rear on inflatable tyres, with 280 mm of ground clearance to clear the rough stuff and an 856 mm seat height that keeps you planted and in control.

At just 72 kg it's light enough to flick through tight singletrack, yet rated to carry up to 120 kg. Quiet, capable, and ready to ride the moment you twist the throttle.
