With its sleek red and white aesthetics, this bike not only stands out visually but also promises an exhilarating ride, making it ideal for young riders transitioning into the thrilling realm of motocross. At the heart of the MC-E 3 is a robust 48V BLDC motor, delivering peak power of 5 kW, which translates to approximately 2.7 horsepower at 3200 RPM and a torque output of 10.5 Nm.

In addition to its performance capabilities, the 2024 MC-E 3 is loaded with features aimed at enhancing the riding experience. An electric starter makes getting going a breeze, while its adjustable seat height of 555 mm (at the lowest setting) accommodates a range of young riders. The XACT 35 WP upside-down front fork and XACT WP mono shock deliver precise suspension tuning, offering 144 mm of front travel and 133 mm of rear travel for a plush ride over bumps and jumps. The bike’s braking system comprises robust single discs at both the front and rear, ensuring reliable stopping power when it matters most. Plus, with charging capabilities that accommodate 80-240V at 50-60 Hz and a quick 60-minute charge time, the MC-E 3 is as convenient as it is thrilling. **
