Strike Cycles is an electric bike and e-moto brand offering models designed around high power output and motorcycle inspired styling. Its lineup includes the Shadow series in multiple configurations, along with related parts and accessories. The company markets its products for recreational riding, commuting, and private property use, depending on the model and applicable local regulations.
The Shadow models feature lithium ion batteries, hydraulic suspension, and motorcycle style components. Specifications vary by model, with listed peak power ranging from 3,000W to 7,000W and claimed top speeds ranging from approximately 32 mph to 53 mph.
The Strike Shadow 72V, also sold as the SV2, is a 7,000 watt electric pit bike that guest riders Hunter and Gunner Gobbo say rides just like a real CRF150 dirt bike, right down to the cornering grip and wheelie technique. Andrew's testing turned up genuinely premium components for the class, including Fast Ace suspension that outclasses the budget units found on cheaper competitors, though he flagged real safety concerns around unsupported foot pegs and a seat that gets uncomfortable after about half an hour. It is currently priced at around $2,899 and built strictly for off road and closed course riding.
