- Front and rear fenders
Suspension
Kaabo Mantis 10 Lite dual shocks and 10-inch tires
Smooth on any terrain
C-spring shocks sit front and rear, so bumps and rough surfaces lose their bite. Meanwhile, the large 10-inch pneumatic tires add stability and traction. As a result, city streets and off-road trails both feel smooth and comfortable.
Battery
Kaabo Mantis 10 Lite high-energy battery with BMS
DMEGC 18650 cells
The pack uses DMEGC 18650 cells, and a smart battery management system watches over them. It protects against overcharging, over-discharging and short circuits, which keeps the battery healthy. In Kaabo’s test, it covers up to about 37 miles on one charge.
Frame
Lightweight and foldable
One-piece forged aluminum
Kaabo forges the frame from a single piece of 6061/6082 aviation-grade aluminum. As a result, it is light yet very durable, and it rides smoothly because aluminum is much stiffer than steel. It also folds, so storing and carrying it is easy.
