MANTIS PRO V2 - fluid Edition Mantis Pro V2 Reviews

4.8 Rating 131 Reviews
Testing the mantis pro in one of the most dangerous roads you will find Anywhere.... It's not about the wind in your face, It's not about what it feels To run like a cheetah.... It's not about the roar of thunder when you take off like the wind... It's not about taking the hills Or challenges of what this scooter can do? It's about the crazy drivers from everywhere in Orlando Florida... But I love the look on people's Faces when the torque and power picks off from a red light... Jaw dropping... Exhilarating And a rush Filled with awe.... I've had friends laughing that I'm getting an E scooter, and as each Of one of Them Who ride motorcycles.... Let's just say they themselves want one... Although this is my personal review , And not promoted, Do I get any form of extra stuffFrom fluid free ride For new customers? Lol... But really I'm not kidding... I'm thinking of getting the Wolf 2 as well for offroad power, not that this lacks any Power... But please be responsible, BecauseThis can easilyTake you out if you're not Careful? I definitely recommend a full face helmet and all safety precautions... Especially if you're going full speed... These are my thoughts about a great purchase...

All in all a great high end scooter for commuting as long as you have a secure place to put it. Only issue is the lack of fender in case the road is wet.

The Mantis Pro is my first high performance scooter and it definitely feels more premium than the low range commuter scooter I used before. It remains stable even at high speeds and feels wonderful to ride. Note that if you want to ride it in or shortly after rain you NEED to get a fender extension and do some custom waterproofing work yourself, if you don't do this enjoy having your pants soaked through. All in all, if you plan on doing this upgrades or are in a dry area, this scooter is fantastic.

As an owner of the earlier WideWheel I will share that the Mantis Pro is a very solid step up and worth the additional cost in my opinion. Granted I have not put significant mileage on the new Mantis but enough to share that the confidence and capability it provides is simply outstanding. It offers a favorably wider deck, plush ride and tracks beautifully. The setup is more involved, however with Ferrari level performance on hand you will be glad to have the options to ensure you are comfortable and in control during operation. Just excellent, thank you Peter and Adam!

Ordered Mantis Pro and had an issue which they addressed and fixed to my total satisfaction. The scooter is so amazing with its build quality and such a joy to ride that I just ordered a Wolf Warrior.

I recently purchased the Mantis Pro to upgrade from my prior 1000W scooter that was starting to have less charge, so rather than purchase I new battery, I started looking. I happened upon the Wide Wheel at first and started to investigate, but after seeing the small deck as well as the weight limit, I had some pause on the wide wheel. Then I noticed a review comparing the Mantis to the wide wheel and after investigating further, it appeared the Mantis Pro to be a better fit for me being 250lbs. I got the pro version not for the range, but more for the lifecycle as my prior scooter was 4 years old and the capacity of the battery helped it to last all those years with riding in my hilly neighborhood. First proof point of the Mantis is I took it out and went up a slight hill which it handled with ease in single motor. Second proof point is I went to another hill that is at least 15 degree incline and in dual motor, it was accelerating me up the hill, this thing has power to spare. When in dual motor and off eco, just blipping the throttle you will feel the scooter try to take off with out you, so be prepared as the torque can go (and this is with me setting the torque to come on slower, the original setting is too risky for accidental take offs). I turned on the ABS, it feels weird as first, but I actually like it and with regenerative and ABS on, I get plenty of stopping power with just the rear, and can stop on very short distances with front and rear, so I like this safety of knowing I can get to a stop if needed. I found myself waiting to brake until much later than my prior scooter which had brakes twice the size of the Mantis ones, so I think the combination of hydraulic, ABS, and regenerative helps bring the Mantis to a stop much quicker.

I was ready to purchase a Nanrobot D4 scooter but hesitated because I had reservations about its suspension. If I'm going to spend this much $ on a scooter, I better be completely sold on it. I wanted a scooter that had decent range, enough power(to scare me if I wanted it to) and suspension to take it off road. Is that too much to ask? After searching, scooters that checked all my boxes were either too big/heavy or too expensive (might as well buy a motorcycle). I came across a video of someone riding a FluidFree Mantis and the first thing about the scooter that stood out for him was of its suspension and how nice the ride felt. I saw a few videos and finally checked out FluidFreeRide's website and was pleasantly surprised that they were a US based company. Read the reviews and decided that although I can go cheaper by purchasing the Nanrobot D4, the Mantis and its better designed suspension, its LG battery (Pro) and its MiniMotors USA controllers was worth the difference in price in my opinion. I ordered the Mantis on a Saturday and received it on Wednesday. Fast delivery was a definite plus! My first impression when I first opened the box was that it was bigger than I expected. This is definitely not a toy. The scooter looks to be very well made and heavy (a plus when going 25+mph). After assembling the handlebar and tightening a few screws -I was excited to take it for a test ride. That initial acceleration made me realize how much torque this scooter has. I almost let the handlebar go. I would advise new users to start slow, check the settings including its initial acceleration settings which can be changed from strong or soft. It's nice to have options in the settings like cruise control, ABS, speed limit and auto turn off to name a few. While I haven't had the chance to fully test the range, speed and suspension out. I am satisfied with my purchase so far and look forward to taking my Mantis with me on my mini getaways up and down the CA coast to explore.
