WE RIDE EVERY BIKE
WE REVIEW.
Volt Dirt was founded in 2021 by riders who were tired of spec-sheet reviews and paid endorsements. We built the publication we wished existed.
OUR STORY
FROM GARAGE RIDERS TO THE INDUSTRY'S MOST TRUSTED VOICE
In early 2021, Jake Morrison sold his entire gas-powered dirt bike fleet and went all-electric. The problem? There was almost no reliable information about which electric dirt bikes were actually worth buying. Every "review" he found was either a thinly-veiled advertisement or a spec-sheet copy-paste from the manufacturer's website.
So he started Volt Dirt — a review publication built on a simple promise: we ride every bike we review, hard, on real trails, for a minimum of two weeks. No exceptions. No shortcuts. No paid reviews.
Four years later, Volt Dirt has grown into the most comprehensive electric dirt bike review platform in North America. Our team of three full-time reviewers has logged over 12,400 trail miles across 47 bike reviews, testing in conditions ranging from the scorching Mojave Desert to the rain-soaked forests of the Pacific Northwest.
We've been cited by manufacturers, dealers, and riders across the industry as the go-to source for honest, data-driven electric dirt bike evaluations. Our six-category scoring system has become the standard by which riders compare bikes before making their purchase decisions.
Independence
We do not accept payment for reviews. Ever. Our revenue comes from advertising and affiliate partnerships that never influence our editorial content or scores.
Transparency
Our testing methodology is published and public. We disclose exactly how we test, how we score, and what criteria we use. If a manufacturer sends us a bike, we say so.
Rigor
Every bike gets a minimum two-week testing period across varied terrain and conditions. We use the same scoring rubric for every bike, ensuring fair, comparable evaluations.
