The Rawrr Mantis X Pro takes the proven Mantis X platform and implements some serious upgrades: peak motor output more than doubles to 15,000W, torque jumps to 288 ft-lb, top speed climbs from 50 to 65 mph, and the battery grows to a 72V 35Ah pack using higher quality 50S lithium-ion cells. The safety and lighting upgrades are equally significant: a genuinely bright front light, an added brake light and tail light, larger brake pads with more stopping surface, and a reinforced rear linkage that addresses a known failure point across the category. Real world range under hard riding came out to approximately 26 miles, with 62 miles available in Eco mode (according to Rawrr). The honest caveat is that the turn signal buttons are present but connect to nothing, the off road tires are dangerously slippery on smooth pavement until broken in, and the team felt upgrades to suspension and voltage should have been present for the asking price. Whether the $800 premium over the standard Mantis X is worth it comes down to how much the performance ceiling and safety upgrades matter to the buyer: for riders who want maximum power from the Rawrr lineup, the Pro is the clear answer.
The Rawrr Mantis Mini R is a genuinely well-built mini dirt bike that punches above its size class with premium components, a sinewave controller that delivers smooth and tunable power delivery, and a Bluetooth app that lets you dial the bike up or down depending on who is riding it. The headline feature is the upgrade path: buy the stock R with smaller tires for a younger kid, then swap to the R17 kit as they grow taller and more skilled, without buying a whole new bike. Testing showed the R17 configuration hits 45 mph and counterintuitively produced better acceleration than the stock setup, which the team attributes to tighter chain tension after reassembly. The honest limitations are suspension that bottoms out for riders over roughly 150 pounds, no headlight, no key-based security, and an upgrade kit that ships without any installation instructions. Best suited for families with kids growing into the sport, or adults who want a compact and capable neighborhood pit bike and understand they are riding a mini platform rather than a full sized machine.
The Rawrr Mantis Mini is a compact, kid-friendly e-dirt bike, perfect for riders aged 8-12 and weighing less than 100 lbs. With punchy low-end torque, portability, and fun aesthetics, it shines as a starter bike. Downsides include its small size, limited features, and a $2,500 price tag for a child’s toy.
The Rawrr Mantis X stands out as the most affordable electric dirt bike we've tested. Boasting a 72V battery, 50 mph top speed, adjustable suspension, and strong off-road performance; it offers incredible value for budget-conscious riders. While it’s not without flaws—like cheap switchgear and no rear light—its value, power, and unique features for under $3,000 is nearly impossible to beat.
