Best suited to
Kids moving onto their first proper electric dirt bike, with parent-set power limits, on private land.
Standout strength
Three power modes that parents can cap, a low seat and hydraulic brakes for $3,200 on sale.
The main compromise
A 48V system with a 50 km/h top speed that older kids will outgrow quickly.
Consider something else if
You need a road-legal e-bike. This is an off-road motorbike; look at the compliant bikes in the directory instead.
Check before you buy
Confirm where you can legally ride it (private land or a registered off-road park), and who handles warranty and parts in your state.

Common questions
How much does the Rawrr Mantis Mini 48V cost in Australia?
The Rawrr Mantis Mini 48V is listed at $3,200 (Sale price at Potent Pig (QLD); RRP $3,650.). eBikeFinder checks pricing against manufacturer and distributor information, and prices can change with sales and stock. This price was last checked on 9 Oct 2026.
Is the Rawrr Mantis Mini 48V road legal in Australia?
Not as a bicycle. The Rawrr Mantis Mini 48V 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 Mini 48V have?
The Rawrr Mantis Mini 48V uses a Rawrr 48V brushless motor, 3.5kW peak motor, in a mid-drive position. Mid-drive motors climb hills better because they work through the bike's gears.
Who sells and backs the Rawrr Mantis Mini 48V 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.
