The trails just got a lot quieter, and a lot more interesting. Basecamp Motorsports is now an official Altis Powersports and E Ride Pro dealer, which means electric dirt bikes are officially in our Calgary showroom and ready to ride.

If you've been watching the e-moto scene explode and wondering when you could throw a leg over one without ordering sight-unseen off the internet, this is your moment. We're bringing the bikes to you, and on Tuesday, June 23, we're hosting a demo day at Wild Rose Motocross Association so you can ride before you decide.

Why Electric Dirt Bikes, and Why Now

Electric dirt bikes aren't a rumour anymore. They're some of the most capable off-road machines you can buy, and they solve real problems for Alberta riders:

Instant torque. No clutch, no shifting, no powerband to manage. Twist the throttle and go. It makes technical climbs and tight trails dramatically more approachable, whether you're brand new or chasing lap times.
Quiet operation. Less noise means access to more riding areas, fewer neighbour complaints and the ability to ride early or late without waking up the campsite.
Low maintenance. No oil changes, no air filters, no carb to clean. Wash it, charge it, ride it, repeat.
Adjustable power. Most models let you dial power up or down through ride modes, so the same bike can grow with a new rider or get unleashed for the experienced ones.

For a city like Calgary with riders of every skill level, that combination is hard to beat.

Meet Altis Powersports

Since 2024, Altis has become one of the most respected names in the electric dirt bike world, with a full lineup built around serious motocross performance. The range covers three sizes, so there's a fit for nearly every rider:

Altis Delta — the smaller-platform bike, perfect for younger riders, smaller-stature riders or anyone who wants a nimble, manageable pit-bike-style ride with serious build quality.
Altis Sigma — the flagship play bike. A 98V system and peak motor output in the 25kW range give it big-bike performance in a lightweight, motocross-inspired package. It's the bike that turns heads and changes minds.
Altis Omega — the race-ready, full-size platform engineered for the 250cc class, bringing championship-level performance to the electric category.

Whether you're shopping for a first bike or a competition machine, there's an Altis that fits.

Meet E Ride Pro

E Ride Pro is about punching way above its weight. This is the lightweight e-moto that put all kinds of riders on notice.

E Ride Pro SR — built for high-speed off-roading, racing and maximum power. A 25kW peak motor, aggressive knobby tires, and a beefed-up frame make it essentially race-ready out of the box. Manufacturer-claimed top speeds in the 70 mph range, with a 72V50Ah battery, adjustable sport suspension and regenerative braking.
E Ride Pro SS 3.0 — the lighter, more versatile sibling, built for aggressive trail riding and dual-sport use. A 15.8kW peak motor launches it to 30 mph in about two seconds and on to a 60 mph range top speed, while street-friendly dual-sport tires, a nimble 167 lb weight, the same 72V50Ah swappable battery and a handy reverse gear make it the do-everything choice.

They're light, fast and a ton of fun. A great entry point into the e-moto world that still has the muscle to keep experienced riders grinning.
