“My 15 year old son saved for this scooter and was so excited to be getting it. It came on a Thursday, he rode it for one day. It got a flat. Needed a new tube. He emailed thr company. They said he shoukd take it to a scooter repair place. We couldn't find any place that knew how to fix it. He emailed the company again. They did a stupid ciogke search and gave him the first two names of places that came up in our area. Thr first one was closed. The second one is an hour away but we decided we sound have to buck up and go there. Thank God he called them first because they had no idea what we were talking about and said they don't fix those scooters. So now we are stuck with a $1500.00 scooter that he can't use. Thanks, Fluidfreeride.”
Hi Rachel - Sorry to hear your Mantis got a flat... You can purchase a new tube or tire on our website. We also offer military grade tire sealant to prevent future flats.
“What can be said that hasn't already? Cooler than a motorcycle. Who needs a car? So much fun to ride.
The look on the bikers faces as you blow by them going downhill at 42 MPH! They are in utter disbelief. My friends and family laughed at me at first; they aren't laughing anymore.
The thing is, you can maneuver easily at 3 MPH as well as at top speed on open road. I did all the research and this was the best scooter for me after riding two entry-level scooters over 1,000 miles each. Guys at fluid freeride provide top quality service and overall great company to buy from.
A word about safety. You must by hyper-alert while driving these things... especially with regard to other cars on the road. Fact of the matter is.... drivers don't expect a scooter and are often taken by surprise (understandably at times). Do not trust drivers to yield properly.... several times they make a left turn in front of me because they are caught off guard, even when I have the right of way. Better to slow down or pull over rather than expect them to yield.
Also, there is an excellent mirror you can attach to your sunglass on Amazon for about 30 bucks. Knowing what's behind you is really helpful when traveling at high speeds on busy roads. This machine probably is not for you if it's your first scooter. Work up to it with a Horizon or something like that. I belong to many scooter FB groups and there are lots of crashes and injuries. Be responsible.
That said, you'll have the time of your life on this thing.”
“I am very pleased and excited to receive the Mantis Scooter I ordered from fluid free ride on time (early) and without incident. I do, however, need to secure a manufacturer's certificate/statement of origin in order to register the Scooter in my state if I am to make it street legal. If this can be delivered to me, that would be much appreciated and this review would effectively be a five star review. Thank you.”
“I received my base Kaabo Mantis about 2 weeks ago. And I must say I haven't stopped smiling sense my first ride. I ride every day and it preforms extremely good. It's got everything that I wanted the speed and power as well as the range of distance and stopping ability. Best bang for the buck out there hands down thank you FFR I'll be in touch with you guys I want a handle bar extension buy from FFR”
“Every review you've ever read is right. I'm 6-foot 1 ....190 lb 51 years old and this thing will go easily over 40 miles per hour. I have a 120 miles on it so far and this machine needs to be treated with the utmost of respect. Turbo mode both Motors engaged you better hang on my front tire will chirp all over the place racing up and down the sidewalks where I live. I have the standard model not the pro and even after an hour and 15 minutes there's still plenty of power to chirp the front tire and leave you grinning like an idiot from the acceleration. So far so good would definitely purchase again.”
“This scooter is amazing. I'm impressed how much power and range this scooter has. I live in San Francisco and there is not a hill this thing can't handle. I'm so glad I got it.”
“this is the first scooter I have ever bought, I put in hours and hours of research on what scooter to get, and finally, after vast research found that this was not only the best scooter for the price but also was the lightest for the specs. after riding it for the first time it leaves you wanting more and more speed, fantastic starter super scooter, but when this dies I am definitely getting a wolf.”
