in-depth review of KAABO MANTIS KING GT

!!!note that ive meant 84kg of rider weight, i don't know why I've said 48 haha. probably because of the voltage ratings living in my head.
Finally, a stock scooter that requires very few add-ons to beast it up!
p.s
one mistake I've made is that I didn't realize I was supposed to get 2 chargers, which means 1.75a x2.
but I will always prefer a single charger at 5a. it's cheap and more convenient :)

[@potterportraits]

can't wait to see your upgrades

[@bilush1]

Very good view bro! I’m waiting for your upgrades ! Chag sameah

[@marcialever]

Very comprehensive review! A must watch video….

[@abb9876]

Best review so far for Mantis king GT kudos!

[@SUB13333]

Man that means a lot!!! thank you !

[@CristianJArias]

hello, did you finally make a 3d fender for the rear wheel? Could you share the STL file? I am buying a Mantis King GT and saw that this is a (minor) problem that needs attention. Thank you so much.

[@Freestyleny]

Very nice review

[@wyldbill100]

Great review!! Hill test?? Does it bog down easily or does it perform pretty well? Thank You and SHALOM from USA!

[@SUB13333]

To be honest I think I’ve missed the hill climb test, but somehow I do think that very few people will be upset about the performance. I didn’t meet a hill I was upset about it’s power.

[@Freestyleny]

hey bro hows ur mantis any new upgrades?

[@sergioperazaaguiar5827]

Do you know how to turn off the colored side lights?

[@ian-wr1hk]

awesome video

[@johnr2391]

What controllers did you upgrade to?

[@davidmichael3189]

This or the Nami Klima and why please?

[@johnnynguyen3521]

Can you provide a link to the replacement larger capacity battery you plan on using? Also since the battery is larger, did you have to cut the deck or any parts of the scooter to make room?

[@SUB13333]

No link because this battery doesn't exist yet. I will update my approach soon. I might enlarge the frame. ( Widen ).

[@peterkrivosik5508]

Hello, I have a question, you had another ox, I'm deciding between another oxo 25aH and kaabo mantis king, I'm just afraid of reliability... What would you recommend, thanks... Greetings from Slovakia

[@SUB13333]

Both pretty reliable. you def wil get more features in stock kaabo. Oxo is a little outdated. They didnt add anything major for a while

[@whitrzac]

Definitly feel our views on the KMGT align after watching your video. Did you ever find 40a controllers or unlock the ones included? Do you know if a 16s7p of 21700 cells would fit in the deck like the vsett 10+?

[@SUB13333]

Literally right now I have 2 customers in queue, one with stock but 40a controllers and other is with custom 72v batt and Vesc controllers. Stay tuned

[@giantstorm3717]

teverun fighter 11+ 37-40a controller are compatible and all wires are plug&play

[@user-rc6hb7je8l]

Professional

[@Freestyleny]

I'm going to be buying this scooter as my first e-scooter. How's the acceleration and speed feel stock?

[@SUB13333]

Great, you will love it. The only reason i said that i feel lack of power is because i used to ride insane setups, like 10kw, 0 to 100kmh in about 6 sec. But as 1st scooter you will be excited with the stock power. Way above a lot of others.

[@BlankZero]

How do I get this scooter into duel motor? Having a bit of trouble on mine lol, thank you!

[@SUB13333]

Long press up

[@alpacinox3671]

Complimenti per il video. Una domanda gentile: si possono montare pneumatici tubeless su questo monopattino?

[@SUB13333]

nope. the rim is split in half with bolts

[@valery6410]

Hey do you prefer it over inokim oxo? Is kaboo your main scooter now?

[@SUB13333]

Yep, main one. Custom made oxo will be double priced, tons of work needed, and I don't need 120 kmh anymore. So yes, i do prefer this one :)

[@pvnbg]

Thanks for the detailed review. Would you please provide a link to the throttle replacement? The stock drives me crazy...

[@SUB13333]

You will have to cut the original plug and solder it to the new throttle. it is not P&P

[@MrMantolio]

Hi, is this plug and play? i ask bacause i bought two from alliexpress different from below links, one does nothing and other gives me displays error. so i went back to stock...can you help? thanks

[@jimskyboy2]

link to throttle?

[@Tothefloor]

Does it have a notch in the center of the steering?

[@SUB13333]

It isn’t a thing or a feature. The notch appears when the bearings are struggling under wrong assembly.

[@MrMantolio]

did you increase the 650mm of stock steering bar? thanks

[@SUB13333]

yes, as mentioned...

[@RoiAloosh]

Dammm son looks good

[@JaradVonNguyen]

He'll yah my mantis is a beast

[@moturkeyh]

What do you think of this versus Apollo phantom?

[@SUB13333]

Poor quality scooter, with bad geometry, unfortunate design, and poor folding mech. I would avoid that at all costs.

[@comellif]

Yesterday for the first time in 5th gear it went into slow mode, I've heard quite a few with the Mantis K GT have had the same problem. I would like to know how to solve it 🤷‍♂️

[@SUB13333]

i think something similar happened to me once, i just restarted the system, and it went back to normal. it feels like kind of a bug, battery was full and controllers were not hot. if that will happen more i will try to find the cause and a solution for it.

[@comellif]

@@SUB13333 thanks friend if you can find the problem i will try to fix it

[@comellif]

@@SUB13333 Fabio Cox here's the video from Kaabo showing how to do the repair... but make sure you perform the test at the beginning to determine if it's needed. Also, as Hoang Nguyen asked, make sure you do or do not have an error code. The motor cut out issue does NOT show an error code: drive.google.com/file/d/1NZ57HE-EDcxzvHRyHg_dM5yykPiyrqUo/view?usp=share_link

[@danwiebe977]

whats the volts at full charge and do you have to switch it from 72 volts?

[@SUB13333]

stock is 67v full. for 72v i need to replace the controllers ( there's 72v kaboo version as well, I could use the controllers hopefully they will accept the motors of gt ) I'm not really in rush to do the swap as I am really enjoying it as it is, but this day will come eventually.

[@1eliavcohen]

אחלה סקירה אח יקר, הייתי שמח לשמוע איפה אפשר לשדרג ל2 בקרי 40 אמפר וכמה זה עולה , תודה רבה :)

[@SUB13333]

עדיין לא זמין, עובדים על זה! יהיה עדכון. תודה

[@InversionRecs]

Rain was never a good idea for mine. Two out or two times into light rain, i got bugs and i suspect its from the displays.

[@SUB13333]

well, that sucks. ive been through dozens of rains, 0 issues.

[@oklahomascootin]

What does ferro fluid do it says it's a magnet reactor lol is that even safe to put on the motor

[@SUB13333]

Check ferrofluid video on my channel

[@michaeltenorio1686]

Nice review,is this place in tel aviv my friend

[@SUB13333]

Yep, Tel Aviv

[@GearWave]

Anyone own one who weights over 220? Just curious about how much range and power you get.

[@t.s.9656]

I weigh over 220, and as for range, I haven't really tested it. However, as far as power goes, there is a very long steep hill in my neighborhood and it's able of blasting my fat ass up the hill with ZERO problem. FYI, I love my Kaabo Mantis King GT.

[@VolcanoView]

have you reviewed the Rion RE90?

[@SUB13333]

Nope. Did ride it but didn’t review it. Maybe one day ( there’s no resellers in isr so it isn’t easy )

[@VolcanoView]

@@SUB13333 ok what did you think of it then? was it stable at high speeds etc? btw thanks for the fast reply 👍

[@ValorHeart]

How much the Kaabo mantis cost in israel?

[@SUB13333]

i did my best to mention it in the video :) 2:53

[@erikmedellin8442]

You should sell the 3D printed version. I want one for my mantis

Your mix for voice and background music is off. It is hard to get what your saying with the music together. Tune it a little, bringing the music dow, and turning up your voice. Great review, great video.

[@SUB13333]

thx, will put more attention next time

[@unloveableandre]

@@SUB13333 Thanks. The settings and all the things you can fine tune and personalize are amazing...

[@allemander]

Background music is too loud and drowning out your commentary.

[@SUB13333]

Weird, i did check it on multiple devices. Do you watch it on mobile with mobile speakers? I can assure you it sounds good on a 2.1 home systems.

[@allemander]

@@SUB13333 Watching on iPhone 11 Pro Max. It’s my only internet device.

Thay charger is bullshit.... i got this and it comes with 2 chargers which take 6 hrs to charger.. stop the cap and pushing some Chinese fast charger..
