Hard Enduro legend Graham Jarvis has taken his extensive knowledge and turned it into a reality, by co-developing this all-new Jarv-E electric dirt bike. 

The new model is not just for show, either, as it’s available for pre-order in Europe as we speak. Jarvis has not only had a major hand in developing the off-roader, but he’s also tested the new model himself, which was built alongside Austrian chassis specialist David Freidinger.

The Jarv-E 2026 claims to be the first electric motorcycle engineered from the ground up with “real Hard-Enduro/Trial-Enduro geometry”. The bike has been fully built in Austria and will be available in a total of 100 units. 

It weighs 95 kg, and has a maximum run time of five hours when used in Super Eco mode, which is designed for less demanding trails. Additionally, it uses a 5.6kWh battery and produces 50kW (around 67 bhp) of max power. That puts the Jarv-E firmly in the realms of performance attained by traditional petrol-powered bikes – albeit with much more torque and similar weight.

A dedicated app allows you to gain access to the bike’s real-time data, while also giving riders freedom to make configuration changes. 

The Jarv-E claims to be Jarvis’ signature model, but it’s not just restricted to European customers, as production and final certification are underway for the US market. 

While the Jarv-E might be unproven at this early stage, the drop of this new model comes at a particularly interesting time for the EV segment. It was recently announced that electric motorcycles would be allowed to compete at the famous Red Bull Erzbergrodeo hard enduro race later this year, doing so under the same technical and sporting regulations as traditional combustion-engine bikes.
