Beta Reveals All-New Electric Explorer B eta USA announce a new model—the all-new Beta Explorer. The Explorer is a 100 percent electric E-Moto bike "de- signed to appeal to adult riders of all ages and experience levels." This new model is a collabo- ration between Beta USA and Apollo Moto. Roughly 30 percent smaller than a normal off-road motor- cycle, the Explorer is designed to be less intimidating making it great fun for trail riding, camp - ing, hunting, or just working around the ranch. The Explorer has three speeds including casual, medium, and for a quick 10-second burst, "Rocket" mode. Casual mode has the longest range of 50-100 miles. The medium setting of - fers roughly twice the speed and torque with a range between 30- 60 miles. There is also an added reverse gear for backing up out of tight trails or roads. The Explorer has no pedals but rather folding footpegs like a modern motorcycle. Other features include a 74-volt bat - tery that can be fully charged in about two hours. The battery can also be charged out of the bike as well so riders can charge one battery while riding with a fresh one. The batteries can be swapped out in about three minutes. There is also a storage system under the seat for a wa - ter canteen, a small dome tent, or a nice lunch for a picnic. Suspension is fully adjustable. Beta Explorer models will be available at Authorized Beta USA dealers beginning this October. For more information, visit www. betausa.com. CN WIND IN THE P62 Beta introduced its all-new fully electric Explorer.
