Zero Motorcycles finished 1-2 in the electric endurance class at the Biltwell 100. Trevor Doniak took the win, followed by Michael Mattocks. Completing the grueling 50-mile desert race, the team achieved its fourth consecutive win in four years.
A 1-2 finish isn't something you get by luck. Dominating the top of a 50-mile desert endurance race on electric requires the chassis, the setup, and above all the skill to ride it. Sirris suspension, Nobbi tires, and then just pure throttle input? From what I've seen out in the field, I think that phrase 'and then just throttle' says everything. 4 wins in 4 years — this is the real deal.

What kind of race is the Biltwell 100? Not a name I'm familiar with.
It's one of those off-road endurance races set in the desert, and having an electric class shows this really is the current era.
Bugs me that the article doesn't give results or entry numbers for the other participating teams.
The Zero duo of Doniak and Mattox keeps putting up consistent results in races like this.
They call it a 1-2 sweep, but I feel like the electric endurance class itself still doesn't have that many entries.
Finishing a full 50 miles of desert running, that's a big achievement in terms of proving electric bike reliability too.
Exactly that, I think this kind of track record building is exactly what's driving up reliability confidence in electric bikes.
Zero sweeping 1-2 in the electric endurance class, four wins in four straight years, they're basically the king of electric off-road at this point.
