Kaabo Mantis 10 Lite
No citable customer rating — see how we compare.
16.4 mi estimated · 37 mi claimed
The claim is 2.3× the estimate. How this is worked out.
Step two in the Mantis ladder: the Mantis 8 Lite's motors and pack moved onto 10-inch tires with 140 mm discs, which buys 6 mph (31 against 25) and a quoted 37 miles against 25. Same 2 x 500 W hubs and 624 Wh DMEGC pack, same C-type dual-spring suspension, 7 lb heavier at 62 lb. Against the Mantis X Plus ($1,299) it gives up 250 Wh and 9 miles of claim but keeps the 31 mph, the 265 lb rider limit and the 18.9-inch folded height, and saves $200. Kaabo's page lists $1,099, down from $1,399, black or red, in stock with 2-6 day delivery on 2026-10-08. Kaabo also sells a pre-owned Mantis 10 Lite on the same store at a lower price; this entry is the new unit. Display is NFC with no app, and no IP rating is published.
