Plus, increased motor depth alongside longer bolts to prevent shearing.<\/li><\/ul><p>With all of this in mind, and while the Mantis Base gets voted as one of the best scooters by the community, it\u2019s good to look past the hype and dig deep into the overall package compared to other scooters. From this perspective, I guess what I\u2019m trying to say is that <strong>the Base isn\u2019t bad value \u2013 it\u2019s just not as good bang for your buck as the Pro SE is<\/strong>.<\/p><p>For more info about the Mantis Pro SE and how it compares to the Base and original Pro, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/electric-scooters\/reviews\/mantis-pro-se-review\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>check out my full review<\/strong><\/a>.

Despite these four scooters sharing the podium, <strong>when we dig deeper, the Pro SE is the standout performer<\/strong>.<\/p><p>This is largely down to its blistering acceleration rate, which is a whole 20% faster than the Base. Despite all four first-place models sharing dual 1000W motors, it\u2019s both Manti models that are capable of hitting the quickest acceleration rates. This is down to the fact that the Mantis Base and Pro SE both boast 60V motors, as opposed to the 52V sort that the Eagle One and EVOLV Pro come with.<\/p><p>Higher voltages mean a larger amount of power can be pulled to the motors. This increases torque and acceleration and is why the EVOLV Pro and Varla Eagle One both take around 2.8 seconds to hit 15 mph \u2013 and 6.5 seconds to hit 25 mph \u2013 while the Base can reach those speeds in 2.5 and 5.2 seconds, respectively.<\/p><h4>Speed vs Weight Comparison<\/h4><p>Similar to our speed vs price comparison above, <strong>the Mantis Base performs well when compared to the 7 other models<\/strong> in its weight class (56 to 66 lbs).<\/p><p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-18831\" src=\"https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-base-speed-vs-weight-comparison.jpg\" alt=\"Mantis Base Speed vs Weight Comparison\" width=\"820\" height=\"513\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-base-speed-vs-weight-comparison.jpg 820w, https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-base-speed-vs-weight-comparison-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-base-speed-vs-weight-comparison-1024x641.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-base-speed-vs-weight-comparison-767x480.jpg 767w, https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-base-speed-vs-weight-comparison-1536x961.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-base-speed-vs-weight-comparison-2048x1281.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-base-speed-vs-weight-comparison-240x150.jpg 240w, https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-base-speed-vs-weight-comparison-100x63.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-base-speed-vs-weight-comparison-559x350.jpg 559w, https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-base-speed-vs-weight-comparison-788x492.jpg 788w, https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-base-speed-vs-weight-comparison-599x375.jpg 599w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 820px) 100vw, 820px\" \/><\/p><p>Despite weighing four pounds less than both of its big bros \u2013 the Pro and the Pro SE \u2013 the Base delivers identical amounts of top speed. However, the Base loses out, as its acceleration rate is still, on average, a considerable 20% slower than its Manti counterparts.<\/p><p>Weighing in at 66 lbs, the Dualtron Eagle Pro\u2019s 40 mph top speed means it also ties for the top spot \u2013 and its very similar acceleration rate makes it difficult to choose between it and the Base. On the one hand, the Eagle Pro has a battery that delivers a 67% longer range than the base (20 extra miles, to be precise), but on the other, it suffers from stem wobble. This makes accelerating and riding at high speeds feel like you\u2019re on a rickety rollercoaster (&#8230;not good and hence why I\u2019ve placed the Mantis Base above the Eagle Pro in the rankings).<\/p><h4>Acceleration<\/h4><p>The Mantis Base is <strong>one of the fastest accelerators that money can buy<\/strong> \u2013 particularly when you consider how affordable it is.

On top of this, the Base\u2019s battery is not only smaller than its Manti counterparts but lower quality, too \u2013 it\u2019s made of cheaper Chinese battery cells, which don\u2019t deliver the same level of performance as the Pro and Pro SE\u2019s LG cell-equipped varieties.<\/p><p>The main difference between basic Chinese and LG batteries is that the latter has been shown to deliver reliable performance without any deterioration of battery performance for up to 500 charge cycles. This equates to several years of consistent use. The same can\u2019t be said for the cheaper Chinese batteries since they compromise performance over time. This is a key reason why the Base model is so much cheaper and something that not all other reviewers of electric scooters like to point out.<\/p><p>As you can see from the rankings table, <strong>the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/electric-scooters\/reviews\/emove-cruiser-review\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">EMOVE Cruiser<\/a> takes the lead<\/strong>. With a 62 mile range that is more than double that of the Mantis Base and a price that is at the lowest end of the scale of the $500 range, there is no better scooter to choose if mileage is your priority. However, there is one detail that may change your mind. The Cruiser only has a single 52V 1000W motor meaning it is considerably slower than the Mantis.<\/p><p>With this in mind, the next best long-range dual-motor model appears to be the Apollo Pro 52V (with or without hydraulic brakes). The only issue here is that the Apollo Pro models have been in short supply ever since they were discontinued and replaced with the more expensive, but greatly improved <a href=\"https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/electric-scooters\/reviews\/apollo-phantom-review\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Apollo Phantom<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p><p>Similarly, the Zero 8X is also no longer in production, and \u2013 while the next best option, the INOKIM Quick 4 Super, sounds like it will be a fast long-range scooter \u2013 its single 600W motor means the scooter lacks pace.

In my tests, I found that, despite the Mantis having fewer springs, it is better equipped to handle the rough and tumble of less even terrain without too much impact jarring your joints.<\/p><p><div class=\"mb30 wpsm_box gray_type nonefloat_box\" style=\"text-align:left; width:auto\"><i><\/i><div>\r\n\t\t\t<strong>Further Information:<\/strong><\/p><p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/electric-scooters-with-suspension\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Electric Scooters With Suspension: Buttery-Smooth Rides<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\r\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/div><\/p><h3>Braking<\/h3><p>The Mantis Base comes equipped with a set of neat, cable-actuated semi-hydraulic disc brakes \u2013 and they provide <strong>great stopping power<\/strong>.<\/p><p>Compared to other scooters with hydraulic braking systems, the Base\u2019s braking distance \u2013 <strong>3.4 meters at a pace of 15 mph<\/strong> \u2013 aligns with the average. Moreover, the hydraulic braking setup belies its affordable price point. Of the 19 scooters in the Base\u2019s price bracket ($250 on either side of its $1,649 price point), only 26% of them (or five models) have hydraulic brakes.<\/p><p>Despite this, the Base\u2019s brakes fall just short of the superlative capabilities of its big brothers \u2013 both of which have full hydraulic brakes. The Mantis Pro (and Pro SE) both trump the Base\u2019s stopping power, offering a braking distance of just 3.0 meters from 15 mph. Considering the Pro SE is available for just $250 more than the Base, the extra braking power it offers makes it a worthy contender for the additional outlay.<\/p><p>One other thing the Mantis Pro and Pro SE both come with is an effective anti-lock braking system (ABS). The extra security this technology provides \u2013 which stops your wheels from locking up and skidding when you brake \u2013 is worth making the upgrade for. However, an ABS isn\u2019t for everyone; particularly because it sends a shuddering sensation through the scooter when it's activated.<\/p><p>The Base also has a regenerative braking system that helps extend your scooter\u2019s battery, while also improving its stopping power. Better still, it\u2019s easy to adjust the strength of it from the interface of the QS-S4 display. There are 5 settings to choose from, with each providing a stronger electrical braking force.<\/p><h3>Charge Time<\/h3><p>The Mantis Base\u2019s 60V 17.5Ah FST battery \u2013 despite boasting a cheaper form of Chinese cells, and being less robust than its LG counterparts on the Pro and Pro SE \u2013 still has one thing going for it. Namely, its shorter charge time of <strong>between 10 and 12 hours<\/strong> is a full three to four hour improvement on the 13 to 16 charging duration of the Mantis Pro.<\/p><p>Better still, a 60V fast charger \u2013 which you can purchase through FluidFreeRide\u2019s website for just $139 &#8211; knocks up to 50% off this waiting time, so you can be back on the road in no time at all.<\/p><h2>Extra Features<\/h2><h3>QS-S4 Display and Throttle for Customized Performance Configuration<\/h3><p>While it sounds like something straight out of a Star Wars film, the QS-S4 isn\u2019t a talking robot \u2013 it\u2019s a device that doubles as both your display screen and finger throttle.<\/p><p>Here\u2019s where you\u2019ll view your scooter\u2019s speed, riding mode, remaining battery, and current ride time. There\u2019s even an odometer, so you can keep tabs on the total miles you\u2019ve clocked since you took the Mantis for its inaugural spin.<\/p><p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-18817\" src=\"https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-qs-s4-display-and-throttle.jpg\" alt=\"Mants QS-S4 Display and Throttle\" width=\"820\" height=\"672\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-qs-s4-display-and-throttle.jpg 820w, https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-qs-s4-display-and-throttle-300x246.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-qs-s4-display-and-throttle-1024x839.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-qs-s4-display-and-throttle-768x629.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-qs-s4-display-and-throttle-1536x1259.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-qs-s4-display-and-throttle-2048x1678.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-qs-s4-display-and-throttle-183x150.jpg 183w, https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-qs-s4-display-and-throttle-100x82.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-qs-s4-display-and-throttle-427x350.jpg 427w, https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-qs-s4-display-and-throttle-788x645.jpg 788w, https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-qs-s4-display-and-throttle-599x491.jpg 599w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 820px) 100vw, 820px\" \/><\/p><p>And, for an even deeper level of customization, the QS-S4 offers a range of P-settings. Tinkering with these will, among other things, allow you to activate cruise control, adjust your auto-timer off and battery-saver settings, and even set a speed limit, as well as the more technical stuff, such as <strong>altering the strength of your scooter\u2019s acceleration and regenerative brake<\/strong>.<\/p><p>The QS-S4 also comes with a USB port, which you can, should circumstances require, use to charge your phone or GoPro. This will drain your scooter\u2019s battery, though, and can even cause problems in terms of the overloading of the QS-S4\u2019s circuits \u2013 so only use it if you desperately need to.<\/p><p>Ultimately, the QS-S4 is a feature-packed device and a great addition to the scooter. After all, it is used far and wide across the industry, and you\u2019ll see it on models from VSETT, Zero, and Apollo.<\/p><p>Perhaps the only letdown is that \u2013 while the QS-S4 is a reliable, robustly-equipped finger throttle\/display screen combo \u2013 it would have been nice to see the upgraded MiniMotors EY3 display on the Base. Both of the more expensive Manti models \u2013 the Pro and the Pro SE \u2013 have this upgraded console. It is far more customizable than the QS-S4.<\/p><h3>Driving Mode & Motor System Selection Buttons<\/h3><p>Located just below the QS-S4 console are a pair of buttons \u2013 let me break down what each of them means.<\/p><p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-18819\" src=\"https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-motor-selection-buttons.jpg\" alt=\"Mantis Motor Selection Buttons\" width=\"820\" height=\"584\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-motor-selection-buttons.jpg 820w, https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-motor-selection-buttons-300x214.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-motor-selection-buttons-1024x729.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-motor-selection-buttons-767x546.jpg 767w, https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-motor-selection-buttons-1536x1094.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-motor-selection-buttons-2048x1459.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-motor-selection-buttons-211x150.jpg 211w, https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-motor-selection-buttons-100x71.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-motor-selection-buttons-491x350.jpg 491w, https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-motor-selection-buttons-788x561.jpg 788w, https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/mantis-motor-selection-buttons-600x427.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 820px) 100vw, 820px\" \/><\/p><h4>Eco\/Turbo<\/h4><p>The yellow \u201cEco\/Turbo\u201d button corresponds to the Base\u2019s two riding modes.<\/p><p>Push this button once, and you\u2019ll engage \u2018Eco\u2019 mode. This regulates your scooter\u2019s power by placing a cap on the top speeds you\u2019ll be able to hit and the amount of torque your motors will be capable of generating when you accelerate. On the plus side, Eco mode also helps conserve your battery life, enabling you to hit the dizzying heights of its 30 mile range.<\/p><p><strong>Riding in Turbo mode is ideal for the thrill-seekers and adrenaline junkies<\/strong>, but not for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/long-range-electric-scooters\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>those looking to make their ride last longer<\/strong><\/a>. In this mode, you can only hope to hit around 20 miles of range \u2013 that\u2019s just over 66% of what the Base is capable of.<\/p><h4>Single\/Dual<\/h4><p>Next to the \u201cEco\/Turbo\u201d button is a red button \u2013 labeled \u201cSingle\/Dual&#8221; \u2013 which references the Base\u2019s dual motors.<\/p><p>Pressing down on this button engages both motors \u2013 enabling you to harness the full power and pace and the powerful dual 60V 1000W motors. Pushing it again (so it\u2019s not depressed) will activate the rear motor only. This, like Eco mode, caps your speed but helps your scooter go for longer.<\/p><p><div class=\"mb30 wpsm_box gray_type nonefloat_box\" style=\"text-align:left; width:auto\"><i><\/i><div>\r\n\t\t\t<strong>Further Information:<\/strong><\/p><p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/dual-motor-electric-scooters\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Best Dual Motor Electric Scooters<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\r\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/div><\/p><h3>Cruise Control<\/h3><p>Sporting a cruise control feature, you can maintain a constant speed on longer journeys, but without having to keep the scooters\u2019 finger throttle pulled down the whole time.<\/p><p>To access this feature, simply head to setting P6 on the QS-S4 display and enable it by changing the digit from \u20180\u2019 to \u20181\u2019.

For instance, \u2018wear and tear\u2019 isn\u2019t covered, nor is any damage that occurs as a result of a collision, or accident. Your Base\u2019s \u2018consumables\u2019 \u2013 that is, its tubes, tires, brake pads, etc \u2013 aren\u2019t covered under warranty, so you\u2019ll need to be prepared to put your hand in your own pocket to replace those parts.<\/p><p>Any environmental damage won\u2019t be covered under this warranty policy, either.

Remember, the Mantis Base doesn\u2019t have a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.electricscooterinsider.com\/waterproof-electric-scooters\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>water-resistance rating<\/strong><\/a>, so it\u2019s important to keep this scooter inside when it\u2019s wet out.<\/p><p>Similarly, you\u2019ll also want to take good care of your Base when it comes to maintenance and routine care.
