79Bike Falcon Pro vs Talaria Sting R
Cross-shopping the 79Bike Falcon Pro / GT and the Talaria Sting R? Here are the real differences in peak power, 72 V battery architecture, European L1e-B road homologation and after-sales support.
30-second verdict
The 79Bike Falcon Pro / GT edges out the Talaria Sting R with 10 kW peak power (Talaria Sting R MX4: 8 kW), a 72 V architecture that holds performance under load, full L1e-B road homologation (plate, AM licence from age 14) and a physical workshop in France and Spain. The Talaria stays a great lighter off-road bike but the MX4 trim isn't road-legal (Talaria's separate Sting R L1e variant is road-legal at around €4,050).

Power and 72 V architecture
The Falcon GT steps up to 72 V where the Talaria Sting R stays at 60 V. For the same current, you deliver more usable power, the controller runs cooler and the bike holds performance deeper into the discharge curve. Combined with 10 kW peak, the Falcon clearly out-accelerates and out-climbs the Sting R MX4 (8 kW peak, 45 Nm motor torque).
L1e-B road homologation: the decisive factor in Europe
The 79Bike Falcon Pro L1e-B ships with European L1e-B type approval, a registration document, a number plate and is ridden on an AM licence from age 14.
The Talaria Sting R MX4 (€3,850) is not road-legal in Europe and is restricted to private land and closed circuits. Talaria also sells a separate Sting R L1evariant that is road-legal at around €4,050 for a like-for-like homologation comparison.

Frequently asked questions
Is the 79Bike Falcon Pro more powerful than the Talaria Sting R?+
Yes. The Falcon Pro/GT delivers 10,000 W peak vs 8,000 W (8 kW) on the Talaria Sting R MX4, with far higher torque (520 Nm at the wheel vs 45 Nm at the motor) and a higher battery voltage on the GT (72 V vs 60 V).
Is the Talaria Sting R road-legal in Europe?+
The standard Sting R MX4 (€3,850) is not road-legal — private land and circuits only. Talaria offers a separate Sting R L1e variant at around €4,050 that is road-legal. Against that variant, the Falcon Pro L1e-B remains more powerful (10 kW vs 8 kW) with much higher torque.
What's the benefit of the 72 V Falcon GT?+
For the same power output, 72 V requires less current than 60 V, which reduces controller and motor heat, improves efficiency and keeps performance consistent down to the end of the battery's discharge. It's a clear advantage in sustained and technical off-road use.
What's the price of the Falcon Pro vs the Talaria Sting R?+
The Falcon Pro L1e-B starts at 4499 € road-legal. The Talaria Sting R MX4 is €3,850 off-road, the Sting R L1e road-legal variant is around €4,050. At equivalent homologation, the Falcon is more powerful (10 kW vs 8 kW) and adds local service in France and Spain.
Which bike should I choose for daily use?+
For everyday road and trail use, the 79Bike Falcon Pro L1e-B is the only legal option of the two: standard motorcycle insurance, plate, AM licence and a European after-sales network with physical workshops in Toulouse and Barcelona.
