Monarch Genie Ultralight
Our verdict
The lightest one-piece lift of the eight at 14 kg, but Monarch publishes no battery voltage and no warranty period.
Best for: riders up to about 19 stone who want the least weight to lift.
Not for: anyone who needs the watt-hour rating in writing for an airline, or wants a warranty stated before they pay.
Based on the maker's published documents. We have not physically tested this product.
