      I think it does. Only 9 more pounds and all that power, looks, and portability. Also new display is a major upgrade! Bye Minimotors controller and EYE display. IP rating awesome. No one wants a dry only scooter anymore. Dualtron need to work on that !!!! Excellent product no IP rating. This will put Kaabo in a good position again,,when other brands are gaining terrain. Apolo , Segway Nui and other. They got the technology lacking in the speed.

    I just got my first electric kick scooter last week. I got a Segway Ninebot E22 mostly because I was tired of walking everywhere even on a small campus, and because that particular model was super cheap on Amazon when I was looking. It also had some decent reviews and is portable enough I can easily lift it into my car. As of now I've only ridden it around my neighborhood or in a local church parking lot a couple of times, but I'm already hooked. And already looking at what I want to get next. I think this Kaabo Mantis King GT is going to be my next/"forever" scooter. It looks good, has the dual motors, can take a hill like a champ (important for me since I live on the other side of a pretty gnarly dip from town, so making quick runs into town right now without my car will involve me pushing my little E22 up a hill both going to and coming from town), and just looks so fun. I'm so glad I found this channel!

      Okay, so now after some consideration I definitely want to upgrade to the Mantis King GT! My current 2021 Mantis Pro SE will probably just be sitting at home as a spare. Feels a little daring though to spend $2700 on another same model scooter just because I love the suspension, TFT display, thumb throttle, stem folding mechanism, and waterproof on the Mantis King GT more. Is that $2700 worth all those extra features? I hope so cause that's so much money..

    I just received mine yesterday - what a thrill; quite an upgrade from my old Zero 10. There was one problem out of the box and it relates to a mention in your review of a "built in steering damper". According to Voro, there is no built in damper, however on mine the steering was stiff as hell from an over torqued head bearing, I mean really tight to the point of being a hazard. I wonder if this over torqued head bearing from the factory could be the source of the "built in steering damper" rumor. Anyway backing off on that bolt to the point of light drag fixed the problem and it handles like a dream.

    Must say I'm impressed by the improvements and features in this Kaabo Mantis King GT, which addresses a lot of my issues with the other stand-out, light-heavyweight, performance scooters in your top, dual-motor scooter list.
    I'd definitely consider this as my top-pick if I needed a recreational, high-performance scooter, and don't want to break the bank.
    The Apollo City Pro 2022 is almost perfect for me, and almost $1000 cheaper, it just lacks range, and could be 5-10 lbs lighter (extra speed/power performance above 50 kmph is not really necessary for my needs).

    • @ESG-ElectricScooterGuide
      @ESG-ElectricScooterGuide Год назад +10

      Hi Franky G. I haven't ridden the Warrior GT Pro, but have ridden the regular Warrior 11+ and the Wolf King GT Pro, so I have a pretty good guess what it's like. The Warrior GT Pro is a lot heavier and less portable, but even more stable than the Mantis at high speeds. If you're doing a ton of high speed riding, or a ton of long range riding, the Warrior will be more comfortable. The Mantis will be sportier, ore agile and much more portable. Then there's the Wolf Warrior X! I'd be really torn between the Mantis King GT and the X. At the moment, I think the Mantis King GT may be best of all worlds for a wide variety of riding types. But.... if you were mainly doing a lot of high speed rides, or mainly doing really long rides where you're just piling on the miles, then the Warrior X and Warrior GT Pro start making more sense. That's my personal taste. All are really great scooters. -Paul

      @@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide thank you Paul for your quick response. Great explanation of the scooter, but maybe I should have mentioned that I weigh 240lbs and I’m 6’ tall. Not soo much looking for top speed, tho it’s nice to have. Mainly looking for it to have the power to pull my weight up hills and definitely would like it to have range. Hope this info will helped. Does the choice change now any from the three you mentioned? I think the worrier X might be a bit small for me, so it’s down to the Worrior GT pro and the mantis king GT. Thanks!

      Strangely, there are very few light-heavyweight scooters with tubeless tires. The only dual motor 10" tubeless designs that come to mind are the Minimotors Dualtron III, the new Apollo City, which is sort of in a category of its own, and then there's the Yinke i5, which I'm testing now.
