Josh Hill and crew put on a historical show at the Red Line Oil Arenacross race in Shelbyville, TN.
Surron USA @surronusa_official assembled some of the fastest riders in the country to compete in a two-day battle on Ultra Bees, offering a $5,000 contingency for Mid-Size e-Moto racers! Riders traveled from all over the country to compete in this new class.
Day 1 of eMoto racing @redlineoilarenacross was a blast, but Day 2 took it to another level! More intensity, more excitement! SURRON dominated the race, sweeping the podium both days. 🐝🥇🥈🥉
The Surron Racing Ultra Bee x @ridesirris x @andreaniusa partnership is pushing the ride to the next level. Unreal battles, great networking, and an all-around epic time.
MUST-WATCH: JOSH HILL'S RACE RECAP!
$5,000 SURRON RACE: Best E-moto battle yet! The Final Round of Redline Oil Arenacross held a one-off Surron Race with $5,000 in Surron Contingencies.
SUSPENSION SET-UP
Sirris R&D team was onsite before and during the event to fully dial in the bikes for this special occasion. Here are a few key spec notes specific to this event:
TRAVEL — Travel on the fork was 260 mm, up 14 mm from the stock 246 mm setting. The hydraulic bottom out circuit was adjusted for increased end stroke force. They were custom tuned to perform perfectly with this extra travel, which was requested by Josh Hill during test sessions. The rear shock travel remained stock due to fender clearance limitations, but a taller and stiffer bumper was used.
Interested in a long travel 260 mm Trail or MX version of the F43 fork? Sign up to our newsletter to stay informed on future development.
TUNING — All of the bikes were set up to be identical with the only exception of some tuning. All Sirris F43 forks and R46 shocks had SX (supercross) tune developed in collaboration with Josh Hill and Andreani USA. Spring rates and clicker settings varied based on rider weight and style. Josh Hill rode with the stiffest springs and clicker settings showing his aggressive style. The SX tune has roughly 50% more damping than our production MX tune. It's for the fastest racers and was perfect for this indoor Arenacross track.
AVAILABILITY — These are the same products you can buy with the following changes:
- 260mm travel fork
- Revised fork hydraulic bottom out circuit
- Stiffer billet race clamps
- Taller and stiffer rear shock bumper
- Custom valving and spring rates
We're currently working on race-replica products available soon, stay tuned for more information and development updates.

TALLON PEMBERTON'S RACE WARM-UP VIDEO IS INSANE!
Made a roadtrip down to Tennessee to do some arenacross racing with the factory Surron team! These bikes were built specifically for racing with the factory Surron power upgrade kit, race battery, and some legit Moto suspension from Sirris Suspension. So stoked on how good the bike was, it felt like a dream! Hope you guys enjoyed todays video 🤘
Huge thanks to the Factory Team @surrontech for showing up, supporting, and involving the community! Thanks @woodyswheelworks for the premier wheel sets and @riskracingmoto for the premium stands!
