Never Doing This Again! - Surron Ultra Bee
Ойын-сауық
A full day of struggles on the Surron Ultra Bee. What was supposed to be a nice leisurely afternoon ride turned into a full body work out. I headed down what I think is a hiking path and it was a terrible idea.
Ride Report - sorry, I forgot to check after the ride...

The struggle is real! Great job!
8.49 "i will never go down this way again" 😂 Awesome video showing the fun of getting into a sticky situation and working the way through it, great work👌👍
Let's crew up a dozen riders and work that track in, you found a gem!!😝
I'm not going to lie, I'm glad I didn't go with you on this one. Geez I would have been gassed out in the first 10 minutes.

I’ve done that before! Nothing like taking a short ride that turns into a 3 hr survival challange ride….😂
WooHoo! Looks like a fun, technical trail! 🤠Except the part where there was no trail! 😯

Haha might of bit off a bit more than I could chew. Downhills always freak me out. I’ve been over the bars a few times going downhill and it’s never fun.

@@zekd Lol! Nope, never is fun going over the bars. Been there many times. 😂 I was even run over by my own bike doing that.
This reminds me of getting my KTM 890 buried in places it def shouldn't be LOL
Use this comment if you want the uncut version of this video! 👇
Reminds me of my rides, "hey Neal go check out that downhill and see if it goes through" Duh okay LOL Good stuff & music
That bush wack ride will be one you remember!
I like your videos because they give a real impression of the capebillitys of the bike and the rider. I'm switching from the Light Bee to the Ultra Bee in a few months, so your videos help me understand whats possible and what not. Good help for unexpericend drivers like my self :)

I was also thinking switching to Ultra. But for similar terrain or mountain trails, 72v light bee is much nimble, specially for shorter riders like me (5'7). I can imagine how much falling it would be on ultra with that extra weight and seat high. But the bike looks very good.
Keep them coming!

Absolutely! Thanks for the support!
That’s a very nice place, where is it. I know it’s in Washington but where?
I am really enjoying your videos man! I cant wait to get out on my Eride Pro SS! Question for you. What device is that that you usually have mounted on your handle bars? Seems like you use it for trail mapping and nav on most of the rides in your videos.

It’s an android device called the T665 and it’s running the app called DMD2. You can also mount your phone in that spot too. Peak designs and quad lock make some good mounts.
Traction control sux. If you are good with your right hand you are going to hook. If not, you will spin. Similar to having mastered the clutch on a regular bike.
Add speed to get over some of these difficult features! Even though it’s Scary, speed will help.

Hey I’m picking up a ultra bee in around 2 weeks, could u make a walk around video of what you like and don’t like aswell as upgrades u have done?
@zekd

Yup! I’m currently at 350mi on the bike so I was planning on giving an update on the bike and mods I’ve done.
Great stuff! How do you like the 2" bar risers? How tall are you?
@zekd

I’m 5’10” and love them. The bike felt too cramped with the stock bar height. I also lowered the foot pegs which helped get the rider triangle dialed!
Sorry, but I was thinking this could have been a video where someone found a biker ... Lots of Holy Sh*t moments here just watching this. And I agree, the video doesn't show how dangerous this really was. Glad you got out of this!
Ghost rider!
Do you have an ND filter on? I have an OM4 too.

Not this ride. I have some ND filters but don’t use them much with the terrain I’ve been riding. It’s too dark in the woods and messes with the stabilization. I also suck at videography so I’m sure I could be using them wrong haha

Bro please do not ride alone, this is very dangerous environment and you can easily brake a bone and get lost and nobody will found you

Been riding alone for many years. I always carry an SOS satellite messenger with me for emergencies. I know the area in the video pretty well so I was not too concerned. It would have been smarter to do this with another rider tho. I’ll agree with that!
