I was at a store today, I was able to test the weight (Mantis 10 Pro, 24.5 AH). It's not that heavy. Ok I'm a man, 172 lbs, but it's not very heavy. You could carry it down or up a few flights of stairs. And when you stand on it (the deck is a bit high) the handlebars aren't high. I feel like buying one, after everything I've read for months. And they have adressed issues etc. I'm just being enthusiastic, this is not an ad. :p
Cool video BTW, it's interesting you are so impressed by the scooter and rave about it, call it amazing, but also include things like the water resistance issue. Always appreciate a complete & honest review
Really good review, straight to the point, does not feel like an ad, real numbers. I'm still a bit bummed coz I know metric system only so it's difficult for me to understand pounds and miles. Other than that you convinced me to get one!
@@mrniceguy0531 Look into the Varla Eagle Pro it is priced similarly but much better scooter option. A bit heavier but better. Check the video and the link in the description on the video. Strongly recommend that model.
Just find it astonishing that my little £400 Pure 500w scooter can be ridden in the dreadful English rain, but many very expensive scooters are only built for the south of France!
@@loobyloo2923 u can waterproof them urself. Bit of silicone ect easy job too , then u can use in wet conditions no problem, just not thunderstorms ahah but that’s normal with anything electric
This is the 10 inch tire Mantis Pro, correct? The Mantis 8 Pro comes with 8 inch tubeless tires which are way better than standard tube tires for flats so I don't understand why the Mantis 10 Pro comes with 10 inch tires with tubes since flats are more common than not. Have you had problems with flats as I hear that is one of the drawbacks and why the Mantis 8 Pro might be easier to maintain than the Mantis 10 Pro ?
@@ElectricVehicleSpace Can the 10 inch tube tires be changed to 10 inch tubeless like the Mantis 8 and if so, would there need to be any modifications or just pull and play ? Thanks again for the info and help
@@JustinDT1225 I'm not sure to be honest. I personally like the since it is easy to swap them and inflate. The tubeless tires need a compressor to be inflated and I don't own one neither have room for it in my apartment.
Awesome review!!! I hope you make one on vsett 9+ please!! Deciding between this and that... 😱😱😱 really having a hard time. But the area where it collects water is abit concerning for me thank you for pointing it out.
YOU can also bring the charger and rest in most Restaurants or coffee shops and charge her up!! The ones that don't shoot them down on Google maps! "That's what I do." Oh and don't give them any money/business!
does anyone know the year for this model? i have the exact one with the same speedometer but i cant find anything except this video with the exact same stuff. cant find anything for the life of me
Oh man. How is that bump coming out of the Met Life Building tunnel at Park/E46th? In a car it’s pretty violent. I can only imagine how much fun it is on a scooter 😉. Stay safe out there, most people driving in the city these days should have their license revoked!
yeah of course. but this is the loudest engine noise I've heard so far. almost like a metallic rattling noise when acceleration frome start. like a grount
It depends if weight and size is something that you care about. I love the 10inch pro mantis. Performs like a super fast scooter - fluidfreeride.com/products/mantis-advanced-all-round-powerful-electric-scooter-long-range?variant=29448411054149&ref=87
That is an awesome scooter but for $2k you can make a low powered cheaper bike or scooter faster w/ a bigger motor/controller/battery (for probably the same cost) than a $2k stock scooter.... But if you don't want to build or mod your stuff it looks like a really good stock scooter.
what luck you have to perform it in ordinary roads. here in Sweden, these electric scooters are forbidden to be driven on ordinary roads because they can go a maximum of 20km / h. if they go faster than that then they may only be performed on track. Swedish legislation does not depend on the development of these machines.
Yeah, here in the states the lifelong greedy politicians at least give us the option to get away from overly aggressive gun toting cops and armed degenerate felons. Murica!!

A cheaper solution to waterproof or water resisting is to buy sugru and use a bit of foam for support. Just a friendly FYI
Do you have a video to show how this could be done please? Would have no idea how. TIA!
Cool video BTW, it's interesting you are so impressed by the scooter and rave about it, call it amazing, but also include things like the water resistance issue. Always appreciate a complete & honest review

Yes it's US thing....just convers 10 km is 6 miles. I got used to this.
Add 60% to get km

So lemme get this straight, I've to spend over 2 grand on this but if it starts raining, I'm out of luck?
The Phantom is the answer.
buy a car for that amount then

Nice Review! Keep up the great work
Thank you David. Next bronco extreme 11 vs Nami.
have you seen the Vsett 10+ yet?
Does the Mantis Pro have quicker acceleration compared to the 60 volt 10X?
Yes because is 10 to 15lbs lighter.
@@ElectricVehicleSpace Oke thanks. So the fact that the 10X has 2x1200W and the Mantis 2x1000W motors has no influence on acceleration?
Does anyone know the size of the Nuts on the Axle on the Kaabo Mantis Pro please? Thanks very much indeed
what helmet do you use? It's full face but not bulky. thanks.
just got mine awesome scooter great review
thank you. I am glad you like it.
I have a front fender. Easy fix.

Trying to find a less expensive alternative to dualtrons.. they are the standard for me
It looks like you added lights on the end of your handle bars. Are they turn signals? would love to know more about them. Thanks!!
Yes look into the video description box the links are there and I also reviewed them on my channel. Must own item if you ride bikes and scooters.
@@ElectricVehicleSpace thank you!
@@newbornsound my pleasure 😊
The mantis is the best
Yes indeed! My favorite scooter this year.
flawed design with no water resistance tho
Awesome review!!! I hope you make one on vsett 9+ please!! Deciding between this and that... 😱😱😱 really having a hard time. But the area where it collects water is abit concerning for me thank you for pointing it out.
What did you end up getting???
Which helmet is that ? Looks nice
I like the inokim OXO better but honestly both are awesome.
Great battery and build quality
Awesome review. What is the helmet you’re wearing in the video?
Wolf King 👑 is King!
Yeah, up to 70 mph 💨
Pound for pound mantis still the best! Looks bigger in real life
YOU can also bring the charger and rest in most Restaurants or coffee shops and charge her up!! The ones that don't shoot them down on Google maps! "That's what I do." Oh and don't give them any money/business!
Hey EVS! What was your average speed during the range test? Was your speed(p) settings set to max power on dual motors?
I don't remember this review was done a while back but if you watch the full video you should find the answer.
I get mine upto 39mph
does anyone know the year for this model? i have the exact one with the same speedometer but i cant find anything except this video with the exact same stuff. cant find anything for the life of me
You think the mantis 10 base is still worth to buy???
I look to buy this one or dualtron raptor 2…any advice? Thank you
Dialtron all famous for having issues.....to many issues. The factory never tests the scooters before shipping.
That's it. I'm getting one.
If you are in nyc let me know you can test mine.
@@ElectricVehicleSpace That's very kind of you, but i'm from Belgium :p
@@ElectricVehicleSpace can i test urs? Im also in Nyc.

You prefer this Kaabo Mantis or the Solar FF lite?
Solar ff light
good review 👌
Ty
Does it generate power when riding downhill or breaking?
Yes, it has regenerative breaking!
Too bad it isn't water resistant. Do you recommend any other scooter with a similar specs and price but water resistant?
Wouldn't recommend any scooter riding in anything more than a light drizzle. No scooter company warranties water damage.
is it normal to hear the engines? especially when in singelmotor. sounds weird?
its a motor and they make a little bit of noise.
Ye single motor will make a kinda echo noise when your going slow its normal
yeah of course. but this is the loudest engine noise I've heard so far. almost like a metallic rattling noise when acceleration frome start. like a grount
This vs the Apollo Phantom?
Mantis is better
Hi Nice video bro i want to buy a mantis pro so its better mantis 8 pro plus or mantis 10 pro plus
Ty
It depends if weight and size is something that you care about. I love the 10inch pro mantis. Performs like a super fast scooter - fluidfreeride.com/products/mantis-advanced-all-round-powerful-electric-scooter-long-range?variant=29448411054149&ref=87
How much do you weigh so you made 40mph? Other sites report 165Lb rider gets 37mph. Thanks
215 pounds.
I generally see around 35 mph (battery not 100% charged) on my Mantis V2 with 18ah battery, 200 lbs.
Can you drill holes on the sides of the frame so water doesn't damage the battery case ?
you dont need to drill holes but waterproff the entire case.
Hi guys! What about the 2022 model? Some issues?
There are so many better brands today on the market to choose from versus this model.
@@ElectricVehicleSpace i know, but if i would buy used is still a good choice? Or have some time issues (electronic, battery ecc..)
@sicilyxtreme better buy new or used from a safe source. If you are in NYC pm me.
@@ElectricVehicleSpace no bro i live in italy! 😁
@sicilyxtreme my parents live in Milan. I will visit in July. Better than buy new.
How to remove speed limit, because I got 25km/h, help!
Still need help ?
I wish this was allowed in my country
I am glad you liked it.
@@ElectricVehicleSpace I really do like it haha
Is this the 2021 or 2022 version that you tested?
2021
@@ElectricVehicleSpace Oh ok, I figured that. Good video by the way.
can they put gas tank infront of the scooter for swap then swap to chargarble?
That is an awesome scooter but for $2k you can make a low powered cheaper bike or scooter faster w/ a bigger motor/controller/battery (for probably the same cost) than a $2k stock scooter.... But if you don't want to build or mod your stuff it looks like a really good stock scooter.
Very good reviews but more people knows that model problem for that
No protection for water that nobody buy this model
Any idea how to make it go faster than factory settings ?
It's not safe to go faster on this frame.
I didn’t say I was going to. I only asked whether you know. I’m an engineer so I have a curiosity. Thx
Maybe there is a cable you can cut, to cut the power limiter.

How does this compare to one of those green lime scooters?
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Night and day. This Mantis is like 50cc motorcycle and good quality with a nice design. The lime scooters look like garbage.
👍👍😱😱😱🤣🤣🤣😹
Wow for 2000??????????
Which scooter is this?
Look up description
I just got it and the scooter is dope but man the torque is just too touchy
Maybe you could switch the mode to dual wheel when you're going 15mph to minimize wheel spin or something like that. Idk
I had to return it man lol @@Alex.R.O.P
@@A1Bokeh was there something wrong with it?
@Alex.R.O.P nothing. Didn't like the way it rode e
@@A1Bokeh fair enough, but most high power scooters make wheel spin
Too bad , the narrow tires!!!😢
i really want a scooter but the uk is pathatic its banned and the scooters get taken off you if caught riding it!
Buy it back it only goes into Storage
The deck looks so tiny.
Yes its a compact scooter
