STRiX’ commitment to excellence is evident following the extensive and rigorous testing of its prototypes by various NATO EU member states' armies and the US Navy. Designed specifically for military applications, STRiX' electric motorbikes surpass traditional combustion and electric motorbikes across all metrics. These bikes are powered by a robust electric motor, equipped with an advanced suspension system, and built around a durable yet lightweight CrMo frame. The use of proprietary NMC battery technology ensures that STRiX bikes not only offer exceptional range but also boast rapid charging capabilities according to the CCS standard.

STRiX motorbikes are engineered with military specifications in mind, ensuring they meet the rigorous demands of military use and racing competitions alike. Thanks to seamless acceleration and the elimination of a traditional clutch, riders enjoy better control and a smoother ride, maintaining optimal riding positions at all times. The compact dimensions of the bike, including a lightweight design weighing between 118 to 130 kg (depending on the racing or military version), a wheelbase of 1,485 mm, seat height of 960 mm, and ground clearance of 355 mm, enhance maneuverability and performance. The motorbike's engine is the most compact on the market yet capable of delivering 70 kW (95 hp) of peak power and an impressive torque of 1,050 NM. Its ability to reach a max of 8,000 rpm results in lower gear shifts and smaller inertial masses of rotating parts, ensuring a direct and reliable response from the bike.

Among its unique features, the STRiX motorbike boasts stealth capabilities with a significantly smaller noise and infrared footprint than internal combustion engine bikes. Its design allows for the motor to be flipped over, a critical feature for quick action by special forces, and it can carry up to 150 kg of additional equipment, such as batteries, weapons, or other gear. The motorbike's ability to traverse deep water, along with flexible options for carrying and using weapons, adds to its versatility for special operations. The power and torque can be easily adjusted via an app, allowing for behavior that's tailored and optimized for specific missions, including the ability to drive in reverse.

Low maintenance requirements, a snow glider set, and a NATO Stock Number of 2340-42-000-3889 underscore its utility and reliability. Manufactured in Slovenia, an EU and NATO member state, STRiX electric motorbikes offer a competitive advantage through better performance levels compared to benchmark 450 cc (4 stroke) ICE hard-enduro bikes. They provide instant torque and acceleration for a thrilling ride experience, focusing on trail performance. With 80% lower maintenance costs due to the lack of filters, oil changes, or fluids, STRiX bikes are not only cost-effective and low maintenance but also environmentally friendly, aligning with noise and emission regulations. This fusion of cutting-edge features, military-grade durability, and operational efficiency positions STRiX at the forefront of the next generation of motorbike technology.
