Fluidfreeride MANTIS 40mph Electric Scooter First Ride - Powerful, Long Range, Portable

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 18 ส.ค. 2019
- The fluidfreeride MANTIS electric scooter is designed for the demanding rider who wants it all: Swift inner city commutes with strong acceleration, excellent trail performance for those fun weekend rides, large batteries to master up to 50 miles between charges, and still allows carrying in one hand.
With 61 (base version) to 65 (PRO version) pounds this scooter is the lightest in its class. It folds down easily and is still portable, despite its strong performance.

Just purchased mine😎 can't wait to shred it down in long Beach seriously cannot wait!!
There goes my stimulus check.
DAD TALK that’s fucked up.
LMFAO dammit 😭
What is the stimulus check?
At least you'll have something to show for it, lol.
@@mstyvz91 in Australia our government gave us a few coronavirus stimulus payments help us through the hard times
I received the Mantis Pro from Fluidfreeride about 10 days ago and it is amazing. The performance, acceleration and overall quality of the scooter is much much better than I ever even expected. I also have the I have had the WideWheel duel motor for several months, but I wanted to upgrade. This Mantis Pro is 10 X better at about twice the price. I look forward to my commute every day now, I love it. And the customer support at FluidFree Ride has been excellent (I’m in no way affiliated with them, just my honest experience!)
Enjoyed watching your electric scooter ride. Thanks for sharing...
Fantastic.!! I rode it today. I'm so happy!!@ so smooth. So fast!! I love my mantis!! I wish I can give a better review everywhere. Omg. I'm so addicted to this gentle beast!!!
good job fluidfreeride. keep it up!
Looks like a nice alternate choice to the Zero 10x/Turbowheel Lightning. This could be an ever-growing category for those who prefer higher speeds and comfortable suspension.
I just got a basic Mantis Lite single motor for my 1st scooter and it’s still a pretty quick machine which is super comfortable to ride and well made. I managed 50 kph on it the other day!!
i own this model!! it is a great one. and it handles like a dream
Is the throttle being on top awkward?
that's actually the currently best way of operating an advanced scooter like this. All models in its class come with a finger throttle...
Very catchy tune at the end. I hope I can forget it so I can go to sleep tonight
This video may have sold me on the Mantis Advanced..
I was considering this, the Apollo explorer & the Emove Cruiser.
But this one seems to give me the power, range, comfort etc.
Look at those suspension in action im exited for mine to arrived very soon directly from Michael Sha :D
I love how you left the lady on the rear with her scooter in the dust lol .
Sao From Oakland and work at San Francisco. I just ordered mine today.i can't wait to try it.Also I owned Wide Wheel Mercane Great Solid Build and Beautiful Style.I took it ride on Bart Train Commute I got a lot of attention people asking never seen one like this before.Now I'm waiting New Beast Arrive.
I placed an order as well (little over a week ago). I hope that FFR gives us a little more precision with the timeline. I'm in Ohio and would like to get going before mother nature shuts things down in this neck of the swamp.
Dude, great video! Why your are not open on Saturday?
This scooter rocks love it front my wide wheel fast stable and great distance.
Need help with repairs. I need to readjust the steering . When the handlebars are straight the wheel is turning a bit to the right.
@@NullnVoidDnvdid you fix it
Hi there. I really like the background music you used for the first half of this video. What's the name and whose it by? Thanks! Long live the Mantis Pro!
going to buy another one now.. damn ..
What is this camera you guys are using? Wrong way has one as well. Is it a drone? How do you control it? Makes the videos very engaging
THE OCEANVIEW AFTER THE TOLLGATE.WOW
is that an expressway could be very dangerous next to the car and lose control but looks great what is the damage in pricing
dude, I love your showcase. On editing, what editing software are you using?
very basic on Wondershare Filmora
how did you film the ride? :o
I need this asap
i'm 6'6" would this be good for me...thanks
'
Hey what battery is it ? 60V ? How Many W? 3600?
I just bought a warrior tho, bit of a stiffer ride but so much nicer 😅
It looks very cool. I want this Scooter so much, but only in 2020. I need first more money, this scooter is really expensive.
When the steering column breaks from metal fatigue? Why are the wheels so small? 12 inch diameter wheels plus "balloon" tyres would be much more comfortable and controllable.
I've just ordered my FFR scooter which I'm looking forward to getting this week but in this instance I'm more interested in your camerawork as you have a clever system there. Could you tell me a bit more about how you're getting those onboard shots ? Thanks
It is filmed with the Insta 360 camera that is attached to a selfie stick attached to a harness around my waist. Pretty awesome what you can do with a camera around $400...
@@fluidfreeride Thanks. Yes, I worked it out myself lol. Looking into getting one as it seems a really neat piece of kit when used well...btw thanks for the 1000w wide wheel Mercane which I received a couple of weeks ago. Great little scooter...
Which version comes with the red deck/accessories? I thought that was the pro model but you have the pro in this video?
overseas versions are in red. All the Mantis we sell are in sleek black.
Where are you riding?
Thanks the video! It is good to see more US-based companies especially with great support. I have owned many 25mph range scooters and would like to add a hyper scooter class. The Dualtrons are just too expensive in my opinion. The Mantis looks like my ideal hyper scooter for powering through San Francisco and tackling 16 miles a day with some lifting to and from the train station. I carry 45lbs-50lbs every day and 60lbs will be fine. Does the folding stem lock down in that position so I can carry it easier?
Robert Fontanosa the them folds down with two quick release levers and locks in folded position so you can hold it in one hand.
@@fluidfreeride Cool! Now I need to convince my wife I need a 7th scooter. Thanks!
@@fluidfreeride Do you sell a folding handlebar option for the Mantis?
Robert Fontanosa no we don’t - at this top speed and power, the fewer moving parts the better. The handle bar feels nice and stable as is which you cannot day about many folding handle bars
I like and the post subscribe to ur channel and commented (@‘ted) people I’m think full for I’m think full for having TH-camrs like you .🤘🏾
Can you ride it in the rain?
Great video - planning on getting the single motor version. Please get some leather gloves. I have landed hands first in gravel and picking the gravel out from under your skin is not fun.
Just bought my mantis
How do you like it so far
yard hostler it's absolutely amazing man cants stop riding it its super fast and fun and great quality
@@YUNGSLEEVES sounds good 👍, I'm waiting for my to arrive sometime today, it ain't a mantis but it's good for 40mph and 35 miles range, paid less than a grand.
the link says it is sold out, too bad i'd probably get one
Which beach was the ride at? 🤔 I have my Horizon and always wanted to cruise the coast!
This is Miami, FL. Key biscayne Bridge
R they waterproof?
How much do you weigh?.
It this scooter water proof?
i just wanna ask something who is recording isit a Drone
CRAZY FACE did you not listen in the video? It’s the insta 360 one x.
@@ddrnold Clearly she/he didn’t if he asked the question, you could have just said it without the extra attitude.
I am thinking of getting the Mantis to add to my scooter collection. I have a few scooters that can do 25MPH but would like to enter the hyper scooter market. I also would like my next scooter to handle the rain better than my current scooters. How well would this handle rain? I believe I would have to wrap the throttle display in a plastic bag like I do for my current scooters but everything else looks well protected from water.
Nice vid but don't like having music going on with you talking and the wind, could not hear what you was saying. Please cut the music
Hey that’s here in Miami. I have a ST2060 dual motor similar to the dualtron ultra. Maybe let get a group together to ride on Key Biscayne.
Andy I’m down
Is there any electric scooter group willing to go for rides
Mansa Bassir that would be cool to start a group here in Miami
Who else wishes to join a group here in Miami
Is this in So Florida? Looks beautiful!
Yes, Key Biscayne
Nice road!
Hi I was riding this today and to my surprise, the footrest was punching the back mudguard each time I jumped harder or rode on a small hole, or uneven ground. I tried normal and PRO version - both had the same issue and my weight is 85kg / 187 lbs. It says it supports 120 kg - how come?
Adjustable suspension stiffness...
The pro is a bit expensive and taps into Zero, inokim, or dualtron territory but the base is well priced
@@scooterninja3479 if you have the money then yeah I'd say so.
@@scooterninja3479 sorry to hear that man. Rough times man.
I live in Miami Beach and commute to Brickell everyday. I was blown away when I first saw someone FLY by me on my Xiaomi m365 (3rd one I've had in 8 months ) I have a question, once I have saved enough to buy myself one of your models, which one would you suggest for this commute? I would greatly like to stop loading my m365 on the bus everyday to get me over the bridges, because it DEFINITELY wont make it. I am 225lb guy and the farthest my scooter has made it from brickell is 44th and collins, which i thought was pretty good.
Justin when you are ready to buy your new ride I would be happy to help you choose the best one for you. And after you get it then I can give you some advice on upgrades. Unless you are willing to spend $5k + on a scooter you will definitely enjoy a power boost on whatever you decided to buy. I live in West Palm right now but I lived down there for several years. I know the bridges are a bear for most stock scooters.
Best value for money would be the mantis base version. You should be able to do to 15-20 miles range at full speed and 25+ miles in ECO mode at your weight.
Jef Cooke I found the Nanrobot D4+ updated version and I'm pretty impressed. Have you seen that one?
What about IP Rating? Is it weather/waterproof? Thanks in advance sir!
- Stonza Photography
It is water resistant, but not water proof. We advertise not tu use the scooter in heavy rain as the battery sits in the footboard and should never be submerged under water, which would be the case with big puddles etc.
@@fluidfreeride ok thank you sir for the quick response! Have a great day!
I did a lot of comparing with the zero 10x,I end up buying this,my best friend bought the 10x,mine is lighter,faster more narrow,minimotors display,even he loves my mantis
@@scooterninja3479 mantis pro x2
@@scooterninja3479 it's hard to say,as both the 10x and mantis dual are usually the same price,also comes down to personal preference,the mantis is defiantly faster,but you have to decide for yourself as $600 is alot of money to some/most.
@@scooterninja3479 if they both have the same minimotors controllers and lg battery which I think they do then yes I thinkso
do you recommend it to someone who is 190 cm tall?
@@hairybarbie for sure and if you compare all the scooters you will find that mantis has one if the highest bars.
how to eliminate creaking, noisy, wobbly stem in this new Mantis Pro GT ?
Paul Z Do not ride when the front stem is wobbly as this may put too much strain on the materials. Please contact us via the website with your order number and we will sort you out.
Who recorder this video ," HOW I SEE NO ONE AROUND " PLEASE!! Reply
Right. How tf did he record the overhead footage and kept turning camera around???
t is filmed with the Insta 360 camera that is attached to a selfie stick attached to a harness around my waist
Just visited the website. Nowhere does it say how long it takes to charge the battery. Seems like an important thing to cover for a scooter wanting this much money. Is the charger easily carried while riding so it can be charged while out? I'd do a little more research before dropping that much money on this thing. Also they don't show anywhere how it folds up...Or how small it folds up. I was interested in getting a couple to put in my small plane.
Nunya Biz Actually the charging time is not in the specs list, but further up in the description of the scooter. It says 8 to 12 hour charging time with the charger that’s included, but that a faster charger is coming soon. Hope this helps.
@@LewyLewy2008 That does help a bit...There are a couple other brands out there that seem to compete closely that are a bit less money. I can't believe they get this kind of money for a scooter. This is why I drive a Porsche and not a Tesla. Sitting around waiting for a charge is ridiculous. Fast charge times would be the only way I'd go electric.
Nunya Biz yes it does... 8 to 10hs but they are working on a faste charger
😂😂🤣but with the Porsche u would have to spend £100 or more just to drive out don’t hate coz u can’t part with a little bit of money for go green . About Porsche if u can afford a car like that buying a scooter is jus a little toy . Sounds like some ones talking rubbish
@@FUNKYLOCK Or....Sounds like someone that has dollars and sense....I'm looking for 2 scooters to carry on my plane. I just love park bench, sleep in a tent logic. Would you like to give me any other advice? From your chateau in the park?
Wow you are in Miami me too.
Do you know where there is a
Good pev repair shop for
Nine bot Segway.
vene rides in sunset harbor will repair your ninebot. If you want a "proper" scooter pass by our shop in Little River :)
@@fluidfreeride dude are serious man can't believe it,
I wasn't aware you or anyone
had a shop,
Yes without
Any doubt
I would need a proper
Repair due to the fact,
It's nine bot Segway,
Yeah I'll def pass by thanks for the invite. It's one front tire
Need total replacement
And now one rear tire
Needs total
The rest of the scooter
Is fine.
@@fluidfreeride yeah I didn't even ask you the name of your shop.
Thanks ray.
@@raybon7939 go to vene rides. we only repair the scooters we sell. for our Miami shop info check out fluidfreeride.com/miami
@@fluidfreeride ok I will cuase I'm riding with two shredded numatic tires at this stage.
Aren't these guys resellers of Apollo? Isn't this just a rebranded Apollo pro? What about the new Apollo's.
You wouldn't want to fall off at that speed with no gear on.
Who the hell is recording this video for you
Insta360 one x
Its actually a cool camera setup.
Is the Apollo Phanton better than this?
It’s certainly different. mantis has a little more power and is lighter so more portable. Ride quality is similar, the mantis is a bit more bouncy in its suspension whereas the phantom fees a little more like a tank. Phantom has better lighting package. Check out the virtual consultation or the product pages at fluidfreeride.com for more info.
Kinda silly to post the video when the sound quality wasn’t great knowing you could have done it on a day that wasn’t so windy.
How are you filming do you have a drone camera or something?
Нам бы ваши дороги🎈
one or two motors ?
It's a dual motor u can run single eco mode and power and change it to dual power
Aw man...there goes my rent money.
LewyLewy2008 these are $1700 and $2400.. i’m pretty sure u dont pay those prices... unless u got money lol
@@xxkarlosxxxxxx7233 they probibly live in nyc, California, Etc the expensive places
How can the pro version go 40mph if it didnt come with 24a battery. 2000w right. 60v x 2000w = 1800kilowattts. I’m saying this because I have a LG 60v 32ah with 2800w for each motor and mine only does 46mph. Makes no sense at all that is a total of 1920kw
What scooter you got? And what amperage is your controller rated at?
Because the mantis has 1,8kw/wheel peak power and apparently uses the power much more effeciently...
I want to upgrade from my zero 9 scooter lol
i want to buy zero9 now🤣, how it was the experience?
Scooter looks fantastic ! Regarding the woman riding the scooter ahead of you in this video, what is she thinking these things are dangerous and anything can happen in a split second. The clothes she is wearing are nowhere near appropriate for riding a high speed scooter, if you know here please save her skin and say something ! YIKES 😳
It's usually best to just wear no gear at all while riding these things. So maybe like shorts and a t-shirt or bikini for the ladies. You can always just break the fall with your face or whatever.
Wow i want one😭..
But it is not available in INDIA 🇮🇳..
That's bad😑
You don’t have good enough roads or infrastructure in India for something like this. Sorry
@@gordonm6128 that's also a bitter truth😂......
But this is not the real reason...
People don't get enough salary to purchase such extra expansive stuff so.
5:05 booty .... thank you
A Mac Uhh, That looks like a little kid...maybe his daughter? Geez!
Thirty five mph on those tiny wheels? Ah, no! You hit a small branch and - best outcome - you're painting tarmac a lovely skin colour for twenty yards.
35mph is not fast enough to be wearing gear. 45mph then maybe. Even if you fall you must push through the pain and instantly get back on and ride or the scooter gods will be pissed!
@@matthewbrown6628 35mph not fast enough?!?!? I fell on my bicycle from a hard sharp turn on some gravel and suffered a concussion because I wasn't wearing a helmet. If the same thing happened going 35mph......it would've been much more serious!
@@jessa.3857 I think i commented on this before i got my Mantis.... I weigh 215lbs. and it goes 38-42mph depending on the direction of the wind. Anywayz I ride everyday with no helmet or any kind of gear. That's for pussies! You have to man up and go full speed head first when taking a spill. You have to embrace the pain and push through the pain if you're ever going to grow! Even if it means your skull shattering into pieces and your brains splattered on the pavement.
Matthew Brown you’re an idiot. Grow up.
clicked on it for Mantis but became mesmerized by the girl in white babydoll dress - what scooter was she on?
also a Mantis - our original sample with red design.
your lady must be upset you left her a mile away
Gloves dude. You don't look like your designed for a 15+mph crash. Get better gear
bfarm44 I was thinking the same. I fell off my 10X at 20mph with gloves and a helmet. Let me tell you. When you’ve lost the skin on your knees and you can see the bone in your elbow, it’s no joke!
Nice scooter ... it’s a shame you never replied to my emails. I would have bought two mantis pro instead of buying from your competitor...
Gary Lonier Hi Gary - just had a look - we had two messages from you back in December to which we both responded. Maybe went to your spam folder...
That bit of skirt must have thought you was following her. 🤫 🤭
No folding handlebars though :/
there is an option to a folding handle bar
Over priced, hopefully the Chinese takeover and drive the prices down
