Common questions
How much does the Rawrr Mantis cost in Australia?
The Rawrr Mantis is listed at $6,250 (Sale price at Potent Pig (QLD); RRP $6,450.). eBikeFinder checks pricing against manufacturer and distributor information, and prices can change with sales and stock. This price was last checked on 28 Sep 2026.
Is the Rawrr Mantis road legal in Australia?
Not as a bicycle. The Rawrr Mantis sits outside the 250W pedal-assist standard (through higher power or a throttle that drives it beyond walking pace), so in Australia it is treated as a motor vehicle. That means it is for private property or off-road use, not public roads or shared paths, unless registered.
What motor does the Rawrr Mantis have?
The Rawrr Mantis uses a Rawrr motor, 9.5kW peak motor, in a mid-drive position, producing 403Nm of torque. Mid-drive motors climb hills better because they work through the bike's gears.
How much does the Rawrr Mantis weigh?
The Rawrr Mantis weighs about 78 kg. That matters if you need to lift it onto a car rack, carry it up stairs, or store it, since e-bikes are heavier than regular bikes because of the motor and battery.
Who sells and backs the Rawrr Mantis in Australia?
The Rawrr range is distributed in Australia by Potent Pig (Yarrabilba QLD). Buying from a brand with real Australian support matters most when something needs a warranty claim or a service.
