the brakes don't look semihydraulic at all. They looks like the simplest noname (or Zoom if you like) F/R-160 one side mechanical brakes. Good luck with the rotors (and the annoying noise) once they're pushed from one side.
Hi, I would like to make you a question because my listening is not good enough. How do you think the scooter would behave under rain? (I mean not heavy rain). Thanks for your video. Regards
Hi Mark do you think the kaabo mantis would be ok for light off road, gravel tracks, grass etc? Or would you recommend the kugoo g2 over it for that type of work. Cheers
@@markjordan It is the kugoo G booster i was looking at, its a bit faster than the G2 but the Kaboo is still the one i think i'l get, haven't had one before cant wait, look like fun.
@@markjordan You have converted me! I was so close of getting the Dualtron Mini but I’m going I get the Kaabo Mantis 8 Plus. I’m just worried about how durable they are on wet roads. I was reading they are bad with water damage.
@BrexitCub 38 I’m so stuck! I don’t know if I should buy the Eco or the pro. I got the money ECO but thinking if I save up for pro it may get Seized by the police as they getting really hot with E scooters
@@markjordan thanks. I was looking at the mantis 10 lite, but my daughter insists we get the g2 pro...the thumb throttle is a big selling point and the off road capability.
@@markjordan Ended up buying a mantis 10 lite plus last night, very nearly ordered a kugoo until I realised it would be the 13a and not the 15a version, as out of stock until Oct 20th. Can't wait to get out there and get some miles on it.
I'm confused, yours has 3 gears, I thought the eco only had 2. And some ecos have switches on the right side of the handlebars to toggle between eco & normal mode, I don't see that on yours tho 😕
where did you buy this scooter? Is this the same one? And My final question, is there something you disliked about the scooter? kaabouk.com/collections/mantis-8/products/kaabo-mantis-mini-lite-electric-scooter
@@markjordan wanted to update you haha I bought it and I love it😄✌️ thanks for the good video man! You are almost the only one who did a review on the mantis 8 Eco and this video made me buy it!
I have the mantis 10 single motor and it is fantastic. Envious of you're turn signals though. I also like the fact youre getting youre kids involved
Very nice review, man! Thanks to you I decided which one to buy
Do you still like it almost 1 year later ?
Normally I using the speed around 20~25km/hr, and need go up a floor, considering Dualtron mini and Mantis. Which one will be better choice?
I prefer my mantis now
@@markjordan ok thanks, Mark. And I have seen the new dualtron mini have new version who have front and rear brakes today.
the brakes don't look semihydraulic at all. They looks like the simplest noname (or Zoom if you like) F/R-160 one side mechanical brakes. Good luck with the rotors (and the annoying noise) once they're pushed from one side.
Im interested on purchasing the dual 500w version you think is still good?
I got this in single 800w eco and is great. Paid £650 for it and I'd pay again.
@@_AdventureClub_ what range do you get?battery last?

Hi I wouldn’t recommend d riding in the rain the tyres are not grippy in the wet
@@markjordan Hi, understood. Thanks a lot for your answer
Do you prefer the thumb throttle on g2 pro or the finger throttle on the mantis? :)
Yes deffo the thumb throttle is better
Hi Mark do you think the kaabo mantis would be ok for light off road, gravel tracks, grass etc? Or would you recommend the kugoo g2 over it for that type of work. Cheers
The Kaabo is better on road unless you change the tyres so I would say the kugoo G2 is a great off road scooter 👍
@@markjordan I'm torn between the two but the Kaabo looks much better and a bit better built i think
@@FDCLDN yes I agree in fact I’m also buying a mantis 10 pro later this month👌
@@markjordan It is the kugoo G booster i was looking at, its a bit faster than the G2 but the Kaboo is still the one i think i'l get, haven't had one before cant wait, look like fun.
Hi Mark, sorry for bombarding you with questions. The Kaabo Mantis Eco on the site says top speed is 25mph have you flashed your scooter to go 30mph?
No it goes 30 and I haven’t done a thing completely standard
There is alot of conflicting info, all the mantis range will hit a minimum of 30mph.
So far what do you prefer the mantis or Dualtron Mini!
Mantis all day long because of the quietness of the mantis and no stem 💪
Stem Flex👍
@@markjordan You have converted me! I was so close of getting the Dualtron Mini but I’m going I get the Kaabo Mantis 8 Plus. I’m just worried about how durable they are on wet roads. I was reading they are bad with water damage.
@@ajayb2478 kaabo mantis has a better lasting battery too at 18.2ah
@BrexitCub 38 I’m so stuck! I don’t know if I should buy the Eco or the pro. I got the money ECO but thinking if I save up for pro it may get Seized by the police as they getting really hot with E scooters
Do you have any experience with that mantis lite? I'm torn between that and the kugoo g2 pro.
I have both the G2pro and the mantis 8 I love them both the mantis is quicker but the G2 is more versatile off road 👍
@@markjordan thanks. I was looking at the mantis 10 lite, but my daughter insists we get the g2 pro...the thumb throttle is a big selling point and the off road capability.
The 10 has larger tyres than the 8 but the 8 has 3” wide tyres so super grippy

Hi sir, what is the max range of it when driving gear 3?
About 12 mile on 3
@@markjordan thank you sir
Does anybody know the code to access the settings when you hold the power and mode button down together?
9221 or 1500
What is better this or the g2 pro
The mantis is great nice and smooth and quicker but the pro is better all round
what is tire slime and where can I find that?
Go to Amazon and type in tyre slime 👍
I'm confused, yours has 3 gears, I thought the eco only had 2. And some ecos have switches on the right side of the handlebars to toggle between eco & normal mode, I don't see that on yours tho 😕
Hi yep you have three gears and you toggle through them using the index finger controller
@@markjordan nice one thanks for explaining, got one on the way so trying to get as much insight as possible, top channel 👌👏
