Zero الدراجات الناريةs has partnered with Sirris Suspension to develop aftermarket suspension systems for its new all-electric XE and XB dirt bikes, dramatically boosting off-road capability and transforming them into lightweight combat-ready machines.
Zero Motorcycles has announced a strategic partnership with Sirris Suspension to create fully adjustable aftermarket suspension systems for its new all-electric XE and XB models. According to a report by RideApart, these new systems are designed specifically for the two electric dirt bikes and add immense functional capabilities, making them far more suitable for challenging terrain.
What does Sirris bring to Zero’s electric bikes?
Sirris offers a range of fully adjustable suspension components, including front forks and rear shocks built to withstand harsh riding conditions. These parts are not just a cosmetic upgrade; they fundamentally change the bike’s character, providing better stability and control on gravel, sand, and rocks.
Technical details: What changes?
- Front fork: Adjustable in height and stiffness, with increased travel to absorb violent impacts.
- Rear shock: Features an external oil reservoir for cooling and provides extra support for jumps and hard landings.
- Materials: Forged aluminum and stainless steel components to resist rust and corrosion.
How do the XE and XB benefit from this upgrade?
Zero targets two rider groups with this upgrade: off-road adventure enthusiasts and militaries seeking lightweight, silent attack bikes. Thanks to the silent electric motor, the bike can infiltrate in military missions without noise, and with the new suspension, it can traverse larger obstacles at higher speeds.
Is this upgrade necessary for every Zero owner?
If you use your bike for daily commuting on asphalt, you may not need this upgrade. But if you are a fan of dune bashing or desert trekking, the Sirris system will completely transform your experience. Prices have not been announced yet, but they are expected to be high given the quality of materials and technology used.
When will this upgrade be available in the Saudi market?
So far, neither Zero nor Sirris has announced a specific date for availability in the Middle East. However, interested parties can order directly from authorized dealers in Europe and America, with expected arrival in Saudi Arabia by 2026 if demand increases.
Conclusion: Electric bike with superhuman capabilities
The collaboration between Zero and Sirris proves that electric bikes are not just clean transportation, but can be transformed into real combat and adventure machines. If you are looking for a bike that combines silence, power, and mountain-climbing ability, this upgrade is what you need.
