The catch with each
Rawrr Mantis X: 220 lb weight capacity, so heavier riders should look at the E Ride Pro SS 4.0. And 70 mm of rear travel is short for rough trails.
Sur-Ron Light Bee X: $4,600 at Luna Cycle for about 2,040 Wh, less battery than the $4,499.99 Talaria MX4. No warranty term on the pages we read, and Luna was out of stock on November 12.
