Where each one wins
- Rattan LM 750 PRO is 1.8 kg lighter.
The Rattan LF 750W PRO does not lead on a single measured axis here. That does not make it the wrong bike, but it does mean the Rattan LM 750 PRO is the one to justify not buying.
What each one costs to own
Over 5 years the two land within 5% of each other, which is inside the error on any of these inputs. Cost is not the deciding factor here.
That figure moves mostly on the battery. The Rattan LF 750W PRO covers about 33,280 km before its pack is due for replacement; the Rattan LM 750 PRO, about 33,280 km. Ride less than that and the replacement never enters the sum.

- Pick the Rattan LM 750 PRO if you carry the bike up steps, onto a train, or into a flat.
Verdict
On the measured axes the Rattan LM 750 PRO is the better buy, and the Rattan LF 750W PRO needs a reason of its own: a colour, a frame, a shop you trust, a price that moves. None of those are in our numbers, and all of them are legitimate.
Range here is an estimate under one reference ride, not a measurement. Yours will differ with terrain, weight, tyres and weather, which is what the range calculator is for.
