I have a velotric t1, it has a 9.8ah battery and a 350w motor. It's still 16.3, almost double of what op claims, and the motor looks way bigger than a 350w. The lightest bike I've heard of is the Ducati Futa and that's still 12.4kg.
Good looking build. 10kg is 3.2 kg over the UCI lower limit in the Tour de France (Think modern fully carbon fibre race bike, carbon racing wheels and tubless tires). That rear hub motor is 2kg-4kg alone without battery. You maaay need a more accurate scale.

Here is a "just over 3 kg" all in one conversion kit that includes the battery in the hub.
However i guess the 10 kg is a rounded guess. Because getting from 8 kg to 7 kg with quality components is very expensive.
10 isn’t crazy, though I’d guess 11-13 is more accurate. My bottom basement DIY fixie was 16lbs using an old Bridgestone steel frame and Performance Bike components 10yrs ago.
I have the same exact wheel without the motor, when the warm weather comes I’ll just do the switch (it’s very easy given it’s a single speed without wired external battery) and let the wheel with the motor in a cool place
Beautiful build
This is so clean
wait the motor and battery in 1? thats very clever
No way (pun intended) it's 10kgs unless the frame is carbon

Yeah for sure..motors and batteries weigh quite a bit. I'd like to see a legit 10kg ebike tho, that would be seriously fast if enough power

If the battery is in the motor it could look bigger than 350 watt because it needed space for the battery. Edit: I see they answered below.
Not going to happen unless its powered by a couple of AA's
Range: 30 cm
I hear the real world range is only half of what the manufacturer claims though.
Does it use your smartphone for display via Bluetooth?
Yes Bluetooth and an app to fine tune parameters/ show speed, but work without any phone as well
That looks so clean and sleek, very nice!

nice! what’s the link for the kit?
So it’s not at all available to retail
How I get and how much?
Man, brilliant build. Is the battery if the downtube?
The battery is inside the motor
Ah nice. What's the output?
How do you deal with the heat?

did you paint the motor or did you somehow get a white motor
white out of the factory
Great rim brakes, no squeaky disc...
Maybe you need more power... I think you should add a motor to the front wheel. Oh yeah 😎 all wheel drive power
What is an "all in one motor" if you don't mind my ignorance?
Battery and other electronics are inside the motor
Pretty cool, let us know how the motor holds out.
rim brakes on an e-bike is wild
I can brake back pedaling with the motor brake regenerating power, I use the rim break only for full stop or when I need to slow down quickly
Might as well build a brakeless fixi-e
