Razor MX500 Dirt Rocket Bike Electric Ride-On for Teens Ages 14+, 175 Pounds Max Weight, Red – 36-Volt Battery, up to 15 Mph, 40-Minute Run Time, Twist-Grip Throttle, Pneumatic Tires

An excellent first dirtbike. Get this one. Pretty much any kid can hop on this and have a good time. I reccomend it for the five or six year old to nine or so age group. The box says like 12 or 14, but thats just a big responsible company covering their arses. Its a great learner, because its just twist and go. All hand brakes, no foot controls, which is good when learning because your feet arent always on the pegs. It's a proportional bike for kids so its not awkward or clumsy it fits them right. Dont get any smaller razor dbike, they dont have suspension. This one is very much like a real bike, suspension, handling, disc brakes, etc. Electric, but power ramps up so you cant do a wheelie. Because its electric, it is a little heavy, but that keeps them from getting too much air as well. Hundreds of hours of fun, and zero injuries. If you crash in the grass, you weren't going real fast, and are pretty close to the ground, so it dont hurt much. Rated up to like 175 pounds (again i recommend it for the 45-90 pound kid range) but ive hopped on it (210#) to put it away, and theres no problems. Batterys are standard lead-acid closed cell, so they are safe and reliable. The charge only lasts a half hour or so which is the only downside really.

Powerful, Quiet, and Surprisingly Durable — Perfect for Off-Road Fun As someone who enjoys outdoor rides but wanted something electric and compact for my daughter, the Razor MX500 Red Dirt Rocket has exceeded expectations. It delivers impressive power, quiet operation, and just enough edge to make you forget it’s not gas-powered. ⚙️ Performance & Speed Don’t let the "youth" label fool you — this bike packs a punch. It easily handles gravel, dirt, and small hills, and the chain-driven motor with high torque gives it real muscle. I clocked top speeds close to 15–17 mph, which feels fast when you’re riding something this nimble. 🔋 Battery Life On a full charge, I get around 35–40 minutes of continuous use, depending on terrain and rider weight. It takes about 8–10 hours to recharge fully, so I usually plug it in overnight. 🛠 Build Quality This isn’t a toy — the steel frame, dual suspension, and large pneumatic knobby tires make it feel like a real dirt bike. It’s stable, well-balanced, and absorbs bumps smoothly. The front and rear disc brakes also work great and give you solid stopping control. 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Who It's For Though marketed for teens, it comfortably supports up to 175 lbs. I’d say it’s best for: Teenagers 13+ who are responsible riders Adults under 170 lbs looking for funl off-road ride Beginners wanting an intro to dirt biking without gas or noise 👍 Pros Surprisingly powerful motor Smooth ride with good suspension Durable and well-constructed Quiet and environmentally friendly Great value for the price 👎 Cons Long charge time No headlight or reflectors (consider mods for visibility) Slightly small for taller adults 📦 Final Verdict The Razor MX500 is an outstanding entry-level electric dirt bike for anyone wanting thrills without fumes. It’s well-built, performs reliably, and offers just enough punch to feel exciting. Highly recommended for teens or lightweight adults looking to tear up the trails in silence.

I bought two of these at the same time for my 10 year old and 11 year old sons. They are small for their age, but the bikes are definitely not too large. The funny thing is that the bikes also didn't seem too small when I couldn't resist and took one for a spin in the backyard. I'm 135lbs and 5'9" tall and the bike handled me just fine. My sons love these bikes. Everyday when they get home from school they ride around our backyard until the battery indicator turns yellow (about 40 minutes). So far, they have recharged them overnight after each use, but the charger light turns green much sooner than the 12 hour recommended charge time. The bikes are heavy and very sturdy. My kids love running them up and down the small hills and dips and bumps in our 2 acre yard. They go about as fast as a vigorously pedaled bicycle, so I think the 15 mph top speed is about right. When I first opened the boxes and looked at the instructions, I groaned at the 30 minute estimated time to assemble, but it actually went very fast. All you have to do is attach the front fender, the handle bars and the front wheel. It was very easy, much to my relief. Overall I am very satisfied with this purchase.

Bike arrived as expected in a box and was very heavy. Only had to assemble the front number plate, handle bars and front wheel. This was easy and took ten minutes with the proper tools. I charged it for 12 hours as recommended and my son received it the next morning for his 7yr birthday. He is 4'6" and it is perfect size for him. Can't say enough about the quality and solid construction of this bike and it is plenty fast. He rode it for several days in a row, charges it after every ride and it hasn't died on him yet. Super fun and definitely would buy again.

I bought this bike for my 8 year old son for Christmas last year & he is still riding it just about everyday! The first time he rode it I was worried it was too big & heavy but he got right on it & took off. After seeing the smaller ones at the store I'm very glad we bought the MX500 because it seemed just right for him & the others looked too small. He knows he cannot ride it through water & takes care not to leave it out in the rain but rides it all over our hilly 16 acres with no problems. This bike is made very well & zips around fairly fast (which scared me at first but now I feel confident that he knows how to handle it). Definitely, invest in a good helmet. This bike has many pros: excellent quality, it is quiet, does not tear up your terrain, has plenty of pep!!! The battery only lasts about a hour but that has been plenty long enough for him. This is an excellent beginner bike that I highly recommend to anyone wanting to get their child ready for a real dirt bike.

This bike is easy to assemble, and looks good put together. I bought this for my 10 year olds birthday May 2021, and my boy is 157 lbs. He is not small. And I tell you now this model has NO problem pulling him around and when they say 45 mins ride time, we go for two hour dog walks and this bike has kept up the whole time. And this is him going way ahead of us as fast as it will go then coming back to us the whole time. So in other words, he rides the hell out of this Razor 5000. If a product is worth the money you spend, my boys would be the ones to find out for you and he sure has put this bike to the test and it has held up amazingly. This bike is heavy though. It's over 100 lbs. That part I just don't get why they make them so darn heavy. It has 3 -12V batteries. I will say it only goes around 14-15 mph. We live in an apartment complex where gas powered dirtbikes aren't allowed. So this was the next best thing for him. He loves his MX500 and when he outgrows it, his little brother is ready and waiting for it!

I got this bike for my 9 year old for Christmas. It was the main thing he asked for. I am a single mom and was able to put the handle bars and front tire on by myself. After I got the handlebars on, I turned it upside down to get the front wheel on. My son rode it off and on for about 4 hours on Christmas day. So far there were no problems and I am keeping my fingers crossed. I did not have the same problem with the box being messed up or missing parts. The box was in mint condition. We had a snow storm that night and into the next day, and he has not had a chance to ride it again just yet. I will repost if I find any problems later. The bike seems to be well built and very sturdy. In fact it weighs about 110 lbs, which makes it a little hard for me to lift to transport to another location to ride. I do not have a garage to keep it out of the cold, but I have a sun room that we store it in with only one step to get it out/inside. The first time I took it down the front steps (10 steps) and it was really hard to manage -- had to use the brakes to keep it from pulling me down with it!!! LOL

I bought this item for my son for Christmas. He used it for about two weeks before it it died the first time. I contacted Razor customer support sent me instructions how to take the motor cover off and troubleshoot the throttle controller and break kill switches. This solve the first problem. About a week later the bike died again. I tried the same trouble shooting techniques again. This time the bike remained in a non-working condition. I contacted Razor customer support again and this time they noticed that my bike was built 2017 and the batteries needed to be replaced. They sent me the batteries along with instructions on how to replace them. When the batteries arrived I disconnected the battery line, charged the new batteries and connected them to the bike. The bike was still not reacting to any action. I say I connected them, but I did not install them as the Alan bolts used to secure the batteries to the frame are extremely difficult to get to and I could not remove them with the tools I had at my disposal. I connected them to see if the bike worked but could not install them. I contacted Razor customer support for a third time. This time they offered to send me a new throttle controller and kill switches. I was thinking that I bought a new bike, not a rebuild project, and asked for other options. Razor referred me to the one and only authorized repair center in Phoenix, which is about 45 miles from my house. I took the bike to this location along with the new batteries that Razor had sent me. Shop told me that the repair would take a week, maybe two if they needed to order parts. I got the bike back three and half weeks later and all appeared to be working as expected. About a week later after my son had ridden the bike enough to drain the battery we noticed that the bike was not charging. The power supply would stay in the red, 'charging' mode, and the bike power indicator would read 'full'. Problem is that as soon as he would hit the throttle the bike go to 'Low' and the bike would not move. This brings me to the fourth and final interaction with Razor Tech Support. They tell me I can again try to repair the bike myself or take it back across town to the sole repair operation in Phoenix. This bike has less than one hour of ride time on it and 4 hours of my time trying to figure out what is wrong with it and over three weeks in a repair shop. The response from Razor of you can take it to get it repaired again or buy a new one if your son still wants it is simply unacceptable. Razor customer service has been quick to respond to my many requests, for that I am thankful. That being said it is obvious that they produced a dud of a unit and I would hope they would have more respect for their customers and their customers time. Needless to say I will not be buying another item for Razor and advise you to beware of what you might if you purchase a powered Razor device...
