If you were a kid who spent summers soaring around the neighborhood on drink medicine and sex videosyour Razor scooter, the Kuberg Ranger might be the adult upgrade that will delight your inner child.
The Kuberg Ranger is an electric dirt bike that can turn into a scooter with the use of a pneumatic seat. That means you can go from tearing through muddy trails to cruising along a suburban street, on your feet or seated.
The seat works simply: Manually recline it in order to stand in scooter form, and push the handlebars for the seat to pop back up to dirt bike form. Talk about functionality.
Don't worry about keeping up with traffic or your fellow dirt bikers, either. The Ranger travels at up to 43-50 mph, and its battery life lasts for 65-70 miles. You won’t be making any cross-country road trips on this thing, but it’ll definitely hold its own for bike jaunts and regular commutes.

The Ranger comes in three different versions, with different features and price points (the cost to your wallet has yet to be announced.) The Standard bike doesn’t include the transformative seat, and only gives you a 24 AH battery and regenerative braking. The Race has all the features of the Standard and adds the reclining seat, a kickstand, and fenders. And the Adventure adds a trailer you can attach for all of your carrying load needs.
Get ready to ride like you're a kid again.
