Anybody have an Apollo Phantom?

I've been looking to upgrade to a slightly faster and longer range scooter (currently have a KQi2) and I'm wondering if anybody here has one and what their thoughts on it are.

I have one. I got the V2 52V Hydraulic and upgraded to V3.

Love it.

Speed is amazing (71kph), it can climb anything I've tried and does a decent job offroad. Range is around 60KM while in LUDO mode and the regen throttle is so good, I hardly use the mechanical brakes.

If you have any specific questions, let me know.
- Awesome, thanks! Yeah I was mostly interested in range, speed, and reliability. Sounds like this ticks most of the boxes I'm interested in. Have you had any reliability issues? And if you've dealt with Apollo support, how was the experience?
  
  Zero issues at all. I contacted support for an issue with a cracked bearing (which I did when I tried to hop a curb too fast) and they said bearings weren't covered so I paid out of pocket to fix it. Cheap and easy. Highly recommend the Phantom.
My friend has an Apollo Ghost, which is similar from what I understand, just one tier down. He literally got it delivered three days ago and is still in the process of evaluating it. So far though, he loves it. The suspension is great, and range and speed are good. Seems well built.
- Awesome, thanks. Get him to sign up for Lemmy and give us a full review after he's used it for a couple of weeks!
