As someone with a Russian background, I always like to see what the rooskies come up with...but that looks a little rough! 😂

To see a running submarine as opposed to prototypes and drawings is refreshing. Let's get on with this E thing.

I didn't know anything bout the build quality or setup, but the elephant in the frame is the huge battery. Every E-bike so far has fallen far short of battery capacity, about time someone deals with it.

Work on the styling a bit and then I’ll consider. Get the team that worked on the Minsk 125. That was a looker.

There’s a difference between being ready to purchase one, and thinking it’s pathetic to talk shit from the side when you’ve done absolutely nothing in your life even comparable to designing a motorcycle. If anyone wants to talk shit feel free to post up the bikes you’ve designed and prototyped.

This bike has been around for a while. I guess they're calling it the CM250 now but originally it was the Milandr SM250 Obviously it's still being developed but it definitely packs some power. Would love to see this (or really ANY of the multitudes of e-bikes we see prototypes of) actually come to market some day.







Even more impressed now. Who was that, Evgeny Bobryshev? The dude on the Alta might have been sandbagging.., won a snow race with the rear wheel coming apart. Jumping way past the landing all day will do that.
Holeshot Monster, ooh let's make a rule against that. Owned that ice race flat track so much he was doing wheelies. Can you say smooth power delivery? Apparently a LHRB also.

Maybe if it said Kawasaki on the side everyone would be willing to look at it objectively.

I'm not on the E-bike train at all yet. Have to give them props for trying....but dang , that battery box??

If E-bikes are going to be our future , we really need a better battery technology. Something 1/4 that size , with twice the punch and longevity. Just my opinion anyways.

Reminds me of when the Commodore 64 hit the public , compared to where we are now.

I would matter how good it is or bad it is, they will not have any parts for it.

The Russians have a history of parts issues with just about everything they built. Like they forget to have any.

Am I the only one that thought I was going to see Putin riding a robotic bear when I clicked on the thread?

Looks like something you'd see on fb marketplace." 2001 dirt bike. Not sure of the brand but she wheelies in every gear. "

The rider's name is Gavrilov Kirill, or it might be Kirill Gavrilov (Instagram: gavrilov669). Pretty quick. It's rare to see any e-Motos being showcased by riders who actually know how to ride (which makes any true MXer question a bike's viability, durability, handling, etc.) so I'm glad Milandr/ Petrov Motors at least has that part figured out.

Better battery tech is coming.
We thought Lithium was good because when you start with NiCad its not hard to improve. But current battery tech is still quite crude.

Don’t you ride a 125? But you think an electric need more torque???

It looks like it puts the power down well and turns good. My Russian AK is ugly too, but it gets the job done and it is idiot proof.
