  • The Mantis 8 is popular for a reason, the dual motors deliver more than enough power for on or off road terrain. I test out the speed, acceleration, range, and hill climbing ability with dual and single motor.

    Just ordered mine and I cannot wait to tackle the steep hills of San Francisco. My Mac Wheel Pro failed miserably with a single 350 watt motor. If anyone whoever visited San Francisco can attest to how steep some of the streets and hills are. I would challenge anyone scooter company to prove their mettle here on the Streets Of San Francisco which was a great show! LOL

    Hey now! Thanks for this, I took delivery of this exact same Mantis, my first scooter, last month and I love it. I've got 150kms accident free so far and I live in Portland, Ore. so there are endless bike trails and shared roadways to explore. I have a 7km commute and take her whenever it's not raining. A question: what is my best source for accessories and parts?

    I first purchased the Minimotors edition, and then I went for the normal Plus version. The accelleration on this one is horrible compared to Minimotors, it's even worse than the cheapest rental scooter.. Is it normal for Mantis to have such bad acelleration? "Initial accelleration" is set to 1 i P-settings also, doesn't make a difference.
