Verdict first, because the spec sheet won’t give you one: the yozma in10 is the best cheap mini e-moto on sale right now, and its two headline numbers are inflated. Both things are true. It really does deliver a 2,600W peak mid-drive, hydraulic brakes and a 1,123Wh battery for about $1,099. It does not do 53 miles on trails, and it does not do an honest 40 mph. Buy it for what it is — a small, sharp, off-road-only toy with real components — and it’s money well spent. Buy it for the brochure numbers and you’ll feel cheated inside a week.
Price, so we start from facts. The official Yozma store page for the IN 10 lists the bike at $1,099 in its own comparison table, sale listings have shown $1,079, and Electrek quoted $1,199 at YozmaSport and Amazon when it tested the bike. Call it $1,079–$1,199 depending on the week (prices checked October 25, 2026). That spread tells you something about this end of the market: the price is whatever the discount banner says today.
Fit, next, because this is where most returns will come from. This is a mini. Seat height is 28 inches. Wheels are 14-inch front, 12-inch rear. Yozma rates it for riders from 3.94 ft to 5.9 ft and up to 265 lbs. If you’re 6’1″ and 230 lbs, stop reading the spec sheet and start reading about full-size bikes. You’ll fold yourself onto this thing like a deckchair.
One more thing before the details. We already cover the brand’s smaller machines in our Yozma e-bike buyer’s guide, and the IN10 is a different animal from those — no pedals that matter, no e-bike class, no pretending. This is a small motorcycle that happens to run on electrons. Treat it that way and you’ll get along fine.
Short version of everything below: strong motor for the money, honest hardware, fantasy range figure, off-road only, sized for teens and smaller adults. Now the receipts.
What the yozma in10 actually is
The yozma in10 is a compact electric mini dirt bike — pit-bike class, not bicycle class. A high-carbon steel frame carries a mid-drive brushless motor, a removable 48V lithium battery, hydraulic suspension at both ends and a long, flat dirt-bike seat. It runs a 420 chain to the rear wheel. There is no road kit: no indicators, no mirrors, knobby tires, and the maker states plainly on its own page that the road rating is “Off-Road Only.”
It launched in late 2025 as the cheap end of Yozma’s dirt line, and there’s now an IN 10 Pro above it — 60V, 5,500W peak, $1,899. Don’t confuse the two when you’re comparing listings; some marketplace pages blur them, and at least one low-quality “review” floating around describes the base IN10 with the wrong voltage, the wrong motor and a weight figure that’s off by 50 lbs. The official store documentation is the anchor here. It’s mostly consistent. Not perfectly, and we’ll get to that.
What it isn’t: a commuter. There’s a whole category for that, and our electric mini bike and motorcycle guide covers the road-legal end of it. The IN10 is a trail and private-land machine for riders aged 14 and up, per Yozma’s own FAQ. It weighs 121 lbs, light enough to lift into a truck bed with a ramp and a friend, heavy enough to hurt if you drop it on a boot.
Yozma in10 specs: the numbers that matter
Here’s the official sheet, cleaned up. Motor figures are peak unless stated. Yozma’s own FAQ gives the rated figure as 1,200W, which is the number that tells you what the motor can hold all day; 2,600W is the burst it can call on for climbs and launches.

Read that table again and notice what’s missing from most $1,100 listings: a mid-drive motor instead of a hub, hydraulic brakes instead of cable discs, and a battery north of 1,100Wh instead of the usual 800Wh. That’s the whole pitch. On hardware per dollar, the yozma in10 has no rival at this price. None.
Now the honesty paragraph. Yozma’s documentation argues with itself in small ways. Torque is 146 Nm on the maker’s comparison table and 130 Nm in at least one spec roundup. Minimum rider age is 14 in the official FAQ, 13 in one retailer listing, 16 in one review. The speed claim is phrased “28–40 mph,” which is a strange way to sell a top speed — it’s really the span between a restricted delivery setting and mode 3. None of this is fatal. All of it tells you the paperwork is thinner than what you’d get from Honda. Price your expectations accordingly.
Claimed vs real: yozma in10 range and top speed, tested
Start with speed, because it’s the smaller lie. Yozma claims 40 mph in mode 3. Independent testers who actually rode the bike landed lower. Electrek’s hands-on review of the IN10 put real top speed at about 35 mph. A separate GPS-checked review recorded 33.3 mph with a 150 lb rider and found the dash over-reads by 3–4 mph — which explains where “40” comes from: the display is flattering you. The Bike Cave’s test, with a rider around 195 lbs, also recorded about 35 mph and praised the throttle control and brakes. So: 33–35 mph, verified three ways. That’s still quick on a 121 lb bike with 12-inch rear wheel. It’ll feel faster than it is.
Range is the bigger lie, and it’s not close. The claim is 53 miles. The same GPS review that measured the speed got 8–12 miles of aggressive off-road riding and 15–20 miles of casual trail riding from a full charge. The Bike Cave estimated roughly 15 miles in demanding use — an estimate, not a run-to-empty test, but it points the same direction. Nobody independent has published anything near 53 miles, because 53 miles requires the kind of riding nobody buys this bike to do: flat ground, mode 1, a light rider, and the throttle discipline of a saint.
Our own estimate, built from the battery rather than the brochure: plan on 15–22 miles of real trail riding per charge (est.), based on the consumption math in the next section and the tested figures above. If your loop is 10 miles of dirt road and gentle trail, you’ll finish with charge to spare. If your plan was a 40-mile backcountry day, buy a second battery or a different bike.
The math Yozma doesn’t print: our yozma in10 analysis
Three computations. All ours. Check them yourself; the arithmetic is the point.
Battery size. 48V × 23.4Ah = 1,123.2Wh. Call it 1,123Wh. That is a genuinely big pack for a $1,099 mini.
Price per watt-hour. $1,099 ÷ 1,123Wh = $0.98 per Wh. Now compare the bigger rival we’ll score below, the DTTZH LT90: 72V × 30Ah = 2,160Wh at $1,999, which is $0.93 per Wh. Interesting result — the LT90 is slightly cheaper per unit of battery, and the IN10 is slightly dearer. What the IN10 wins on is the entry ticket: half the money through the door. Per-Wh pricing flatters big bikes; your bank account cares about the total.
What the 53-mile claim implies. 1,123Wh ÷ 53 miles = 21.2 Wh per mile. That consumption figure is e-bike-at-15-mph territory. A 2,600W mini dirt bike on knobbies, ridden like a dirt bike, uses far more. At 45 Wh/mile — a fair gentle-trail figure (est.) — you get 1,123 ÷ 45 = 25 miles. At 60 Wh/mile, mixed trail with hills: 18.7 miles. At 90 Wh/mile, hard riding: 12.5 miles. Those three numbers bracket everything independent testers have reported, and none of them is 53. The claim isn’t a lie about the battery; it’s a lie about how you’ll ride.
Cost to fill. A full charge is 1.123 kWh. At an average US residential rate of $0.17/kWh, that’s about $0.19 per charge. Run 20 trail miles on it and you’re at roughly a cent a mile in electricity. Running costs are not this bike’s problem. Range is.
Motor, ride modes and hardware: what holds up
The mid-drive layout is the right call at this price. Weight sits low and central, the chain drive gives you real torque multiplication, and 146 Nm of claimed peak torque (even if you mentally trim it to the 130 Nm some sources quote) is plenty to spin the rear wheel on loose dirt from a standstill. The three modes — 18, 24 and 40 mph claimed — are genuinely useful for handing the bike to a younger rider. Mode 1 is a leash. Use it.
Hydraulic brakes at $1,099 still surprises me. Cable discs are the budget norm because they’re cheap; hydraulics stop harder, modulate better and don’t stretch. Testers singled out the braking as a strength, and on a bike that reaches 35 mph with a teenager aboard, brakes are not where you want the savings to come from. Yozma spent money in the right place here.
Suspension is hydraulic at both ends with a nitrogen-charged rear shock — again, spec-sheet royalty at this price. Keep expectations adult-sized, though: travel is short, the wheels are small, and washboard trails will find the limits fast. The 9 inches of ground clearance is honest and useful. The IPX6 rating means rain and hose-downs are fine; it does not mean river crossings are a plan.
Chain drive means chain maintenance: lube it, check tension, keep it clean. That’s dirt bike ownership, not a defect. The removable battery is the other practical win — charge it in the garage, in the house, or carry a spare. At 5–6 hours per charge on the included 5A charger, a spare pack (sold separately) is the only real range upgrade this bike offers.
Is the yozma in10 street legal?
No. Short answer, no footnotes needed. Yozma itself rates the IN10 “Off-Road Only,” and nothing about the bike argues otherwise: no road lighting package worth the name, no mirrors, no plate bracket setup, knobby tires, and a 40 mph claimed top speed that puts it outside every US e-bike class even if it had pedals, which for legal purposes it doesn’t. It is not a Class 1, 2 or 3 e-bike. It is an unregistered off-road motorcycle in the eyes of most jurisdictions.
Where can you ride it? Private land with permission, OHV trails where electric dirt bikes are allowed, tracks, farms, ranches. Where can’t you? Roads, sidewalks, bike lanes, multi-use paths — the places where, per Electrek’s review, plenty of teenagers are riding them anyway. That’s their legal problem and their parents’ insurance problem. If you need one machine that does trails on Saturday and the school run on Monday, this isn’t it, and no tire swap fixes that; Yozma even sells street tires for it, which improve pavement manners and change the legal status not one bit.
For the wider picture on which small electric bikes can and can’t use public space, our e-bike dirt guide walks through the category rules. Read it before assuming a quiet motor makes a bike legal. It doesn’t.
Who should buy the yozma in10 — and who should walk away
Buy it if: you’re shopping for a teen’s first real dirt bike, or you’re a smaller adult (under about 5’9″, well under the 265 lb limit) who wants trail fun without gas-bike noise, fuel runs and carb grief. Buy it if your riding is loops — trails near home, land you have access to, a track — where 15–22 real miles (est.) covers the day. Buy it if the budget is hard-capped near $1,100 and you refuse to spend it on a hub-motor toy with cable brakes. On that brief, this is the correct purchase.
Walk away if: you’re a tall or heavy adult; the cockpit will cramp you and the suspension will hate you. Walk away if you need street legality, a commute, or a license-plate future. Walk away if your rides are long — the battery math above is unforgiving, and a 5–6 hour recharge is the only refill available. And walk away if dealer support matters to you: this is a direct-to-consumer brand with a one-year warranty and a parts pipeline, not a showroom network. Know that going in.
The step-up options explain themselves. The IN 10 Pro ($1,899) buys you 60V, 5,500W peak, a claimed 50 mph and bigger 17/14 wheels for taller riders. The DTTZH LT90 ($1,999) goes full-size: 6,000W peak claimed, 2,160Wh, 19/17 wheels, 440 lb load rating. Both cost roughly double. Neither is “better value” — they’re bigger bikes for bigger people. Size is the decision here, not spec envy.
Our verdict and scores
Yozma IN10 — Our score: 7.3/10. Power: 7/10 (2,600W peak is strong for the class; tested speed tops out near 35 mph, not 40). Range: 5/10 (a big battery wasted by a fantasy claim; 15–22 real trail miles (est.) is usable, not generous). Value: 9/10 (mid-drive, hydraulics and 1,123Wh at about $1,099 — nothing else at the price is close). The deductions are for the inflated claims and the thin documentation, not the hardware. The hardware is the story.
DTTZH LT90 — Our score: 7.6/10. Power: 9/10 (6,000W peak claimed, full-size pace). Range: 7/10 (2,160Wh buys real distance, though its claims deserve the same derating). Value: 6/10 (fair money for a full-size bike; double the IN10’s ticket). It out-scores the Yozma because it fits adults and carries nearly twice the energy. It also costs $900 more. If you fit the IN10, keep the $900.
Final word, no hedging: for a smaller rider with legal dirt to ride on, the yozma in10 is the budget mini e-moto to beat in 2026. Just cross out the 53 and write in 18 before you plan your first ride.
Yozma in10 FAQ
How fast does the yozma in10 actually go?
33–35 mph in independent testing: about 35 mph in Electrek’s hands and 33.3 mph GPS-verified with a 150 lb rider in another hands-on review. The claimed 40 mph is a dash reading; the display overstates speed by roughly 3–4 mph.
How far does it go on one charge?
Realistically 15–22 miles of trail riding (est., from the 1,123Wh battery at 45–60 Wh/mile, and matching independent reports of 15–20 casual miles). Aggressive riding can drop it to 8–12 miles. The claimed 53 miles assumes mode-1 pacing on flat ground.
Is the IN10 street legal?
No. Yozma rates it off-road only, it has no road equipment, and its speed puts it outside US e-bike classes. Private land, permitted OHV trails and tracks are its legal home.
Who fits on it?
Riders from about 4 ft to 5’9″ and up to 265 lbs, per Yozma, with a 28-inch seat height. The maker sets the minimum age at 14. Taller or heavier riders should look at full-size bikes like the LT90 instead.
How long does charging take, and can the battery come out?
Five to six hours from empty on the included 48V 5A charger. Yes, the 48V 23.4Ah pack is removable, so you can charge it off the bike or carry a spare. A full charge costs about $0.19 in electricity at $0.17/kWh.
IN10 or IN10 Pro?
The Pro ($1,899) adds a 60V 27Ah battery, 5,500W peak, a claimed 50 mph and larger 17/14-inch wheels for taller riders. Buy the base IN10 if you fit it and ride loops. Buy the Pro if you’re bigger, or your trails are longer and faster.
