About The Gear Shed | An E-Moto Podcast By Electrix Moto

The Gear Shed is a rider-led e-moto podcast about electric dirt bikes as machines that have to survive real trails, real tracks, and real setup decisions. Its center of gravity is not polished industry commentary. It feels closer to a workbench conversation after the bikes have been moved out of frame and everyone finally has time to argue. The show spends a lot of time on the Ultra B because the speakers have direct experience with it. That bike becomes a reference point for electric moto: approachable, capable, and still hard to beat in a space without much direct competition. Stark comes up as a different kind of machine, impressive for its intended purpose but not automatically the answer for every rider. KTM Freeride talk brings out the show's useful tension between brand trust, cost, simplicity, and the expectations riders bring from gas bikes. The speakers do not treat every screen, setting, or app-like feature as an upgrade. A basic display can be a virtue if it lets a dirt bike stay a dirt bike. Suspension gets even more attention. The show lingers on compression, rebound, trail tune versus MX tune, body weight, jump size, hard enduro comfort, and the point where a smooth rock setup becomes too soft for faster riding. That detail gives the banter weight. Mr. Nate is a recurring presence, shaped in the excerpts as a rider with a gas-bike background who now talks electric from the saddle rather than from a distance. The chemistry is loose, caffeinated, and sometimes messy. It is also specific. Guest episodes add industry context without turning the show into a press stop, especially when Colin Godby explains Dust Moto's emphasis on fun, agility, swappable batteries, and a broader audience instead of a pure race posture. The Gear Shed suits listeners who want opinions formed by riding, wrenching, and comparing bikes in public. It can be blunt about what seems overbuilt, underexplained, or overhyped. Its best moments come when casual shop talk sharpens into a clear buyer caution or setup insight. For electric dirt bike riders, it is a useful place to hear the questions that come after the first test ride.

Made for: For electric dirt bike riders, gas-bike converts, Ultra B owners, and anyone comparing KTM, Stark, Dust Moto, and e-moto options. It especially suits listeners who care about setup feel as much as headline specs.

What sets it apart: The show stands out by pairing loose garage chemistry with unusually practical setup talk. It judges e-moto choices through riding feel, wrench time, suspension behavior, and real buyer tradeoffs rather than polished product language.

In their own words

Where electric dirt bike talk gets real, from tech deep dives to trail tales, we're riders first—breaking down the e-moto world with logic, laughs, and a whole lotta voltage. Tune in for insights, interviews, and the occasional roasted controller.
