Key Features of the SYX MOTO Holeshot ES 50cc Dirt Bike
High-Performance 2-Stroke Engine
Powered by a 50cc air-cooled, 2-stroke, single-cylinder engine, the Holeshot ES delivers a maximum speed of 30 mph (adjustable to 15 mph with the speed limiter), ideal for young riders learning to handle a dirt bike. The 2-stroke engine requires a 25:1 fuel-to-oil ratio, providing robust acceleration and power for climbing hills or navigating uneven terrain. The CDI ignition system ensures reliable startups, while the electric start feature makes it easy for kids to get going without the physical effort of a pull start. For added convenience, the pull-start mechanism serves as a backup in case of battery issues, ensuring uninterrupted adventures.
Safety-First Design
Safety is a top priority for the Holeshot ES. It features a 2-level speed limiter (15 mph and 30 mph), allowing parents to control the bike’s speed based on their child’s skill level. The safety kill switch on the handlebar enables riders to instantly shut off the engine, providing an extra layer of security during emergencies. Front and rear disc brakes deliver superior stopping power, ensuring precise control even in wet or challenging conditions. The knobby 2.5-10 tires (both front and rear) offer excellent traction on dirt, sand, or gravel, while the spring suspension system (front and rear) absorbs shocks for a smoother, more comfortable ride.
Durable and Lightweight Construction
Weighing just 48 lbs (dry) and up to 57 lbs (wet), the Holeshot ES is lightweight and easy for kids to handle, making it perfect for riders aged 6–10. Despite its compact size, the bike boasts a sturdy plastic frame and alloy 10-inch wheels, capable of withstanding the rigors of off-road riding. With a weight capacity of 176 lbs, it’s suitable for young riders and even some adults under 5.5 feet tall. The seat height of 23 inches and ground clearance of 8.5 inches ensure easy mounting and obstacle clearance, while the dimensions (46″ L x 24″ W x 31″ H) make it compact for storage and transport.
Easy Assembly and Maintenance
The Holeshot ES arrives 85% assembled, requiring minimal setup, including attaching the rear shock absorber, front wheel, handlebar, and fender. A tool kit, fuel mix bottle, owner’s manual, and decal set are included for a hassle-free setup. The bike’s high-quality materials are designed to handle tough conditions, and SYX MOTO offers a large inventory of replacement parts, such as pull starters and carburetors, to ensure long-term reliability. The fuel capacity of 0.45 gallons supports extended rides, and the chain drive system ensures efficient power transfer to the wheels.
Stylish and Customizable
The Holeshot ES in green (model A2) features vibrant decals that may vary slightly due to manufacturing differences, adding a personalized touch to each bike. Other color options, such as Blue A2 and Yellow A2, are available for riders who want to stand out. The sleek design, combined with upgraded components like the CNC anodized aluminum brake reservoir cap, gives this mini dirt bike a professional, race-ready look that kids love.
