Surron Light Bee Brake Upgrade Guide

The Surron Light Bee is one of the most popular electric dirt bikes on the market. With over 50,000 units sold globally, it has created a massive aftermarket for performance upgrades — and the brake system is the number one priority for most riders and shops.

Why Upgrade the Stock Brakes?

The OEM brake system on the Light Bee is adequate for casual riding but falls short in three key areas: stopping power under heavy load, heat dissipation during extended downhill runs, and overall modulation feel. Upgrading to CNC-machined brake components solves all three problems while adding significant value for your customers.

• Stopping Power: Dual caliper setups provide 40-60% more braking force compared to stock single-caliper systems.
• Heat Management: Larger 240mm rotors with anodized finishes dissipate heat faster, preventing brake fade.
• Durability: CNC 6061-T6 billet aluminum brackets outlast cast OEM parts by 3-5x under heavy use.

Installation Tips for Shops

• All Mosvolt brake kits are direct bolt-on — no drilling or frame modification required.
• Use blue Loctite on all caliper bracket bolts to prevent loosening from vibration.
• Bleed the brake system thoroughly after installation — air in the lines reduces braking performance by up to 30%.
• Test ride at low speed before delivering to customers.
• Keep spare brake pads in stock — Mosvolt offers performance ceramic pad sets at $15/set.
