Customize Your Controller Color (match your motor face plate) Fitment Gen.2 Pro Gen.2 Max Gen.2 Ultra Thick vs. Thin Heatsinks: Which One Should You Choose? A heatsink helps pull heat away from your electric dirtbike's motor controller and dissipate it into the surrounding air. Choosing a thick or thin heatsink depends on how hard you ride, how much power your bike produces, and how much cooling you need. THICK HEATSINK — Maximum Cooling A thick heatsink has more aluminum mass and typically greater heat-dissipation capacity. It is designed to handle higher temperatures and sustained heat loads. Choose a thick heatsink if you: Ride aggressively or at high speeds Ride motocross, dunes, hills, or other demanding terrain Run a high-power motor/controller setup Ride for extended periods without much downtime Frequently push your bike hard under heavy acceleration Want additional thermal protection for your controller Advantages: Better at absorbing and dissipating heat Helps maintain lower controller temperatures Better suited for high-power builds Provides greater thermal headroom during long, hard rides Best for: High-performance and race-oriented electric dirtbikes where maximum cooling is a priority. THIN HEATSINK — Lightweight & Compact A thin heatsink provides effective cooling while keeping weight and size to a minimum. It is a good option when the controller does not generate extreme amounts of heat. Choose a thin heatsink if you: Ride recreationally or at moderate speeds Have a lower-power controller setup Ride shorter sessions Want to minimize weight Have limited space around the controller Prefer a smaller, more compact setup Advantages: Lighter weight More compact Adequate cooling for moderate power levels Can provide more clearance around the controller Best for: Stock or moderate-power electric dirtbikes where extreme cooling capacity isn't necessary. Which One Is Right for You? If you're pushing your electric dirtbike hard, choose the thick heatsink. The additional cooling capacity can help keep controller temperatures under control during sustained high-power riding. If you're riding casually or your controller produces less heat, a thin heatsink may be all you need. It provides cooling without adding unnecessary weight or bulk. Simple rule: More power + harder riding + longer sessions = Thick heatsink Less power + casual riding + shorter sessions = Thin heatsink
