RIDE REVIEW I INTENSE TAZER MX PRO
P120
The Intense bicycles Tazer MX line of
full-carbon eMTB's came blitzing into power-
sports dealership doors in 2021 as the first
North American production line of moto-deal-
er-specific eMTB's. The focus to serve the
dealership and customer base of the power-
sports industry with market-specific bicycle
builds and business direction is unique.
With motocross-inspired build specs and
design inspiration from the most popular
gasoline-fueled machines in world, the In-
tense Tazer MX is built with the intent to help
riders identify with their moto passion and
roots. Brands like Ohlins, Maxxis, Magura
and ODI grace the MX line of Tazers. Plus,
custom graphic/paint schemes make them
stand out further, setting them a bit apart
from Intense's own line of bicycle-dealership
models, and massively apart from the mega
bicycle brands' offerings in this space.
Intense Tazer MX bicycles are only avail-
able at Parts Unlimited dealers, and ac-
cording to Jeff Derge, VP of Sales for Parts
Unlimited/Drag Specialties, that network fuels
many brick-and-mortar dealerships across the
United States. The same place you buy dirt
bike tires, chain lube and have service work
done on your motorcycle is the same place
you buy the Tazer MX.

has the look of a Factory
off-road or MX bike.
