I want to share my story. I bought one of these mini bikes about 14 months ago. I do not have my mini bike just excuse after excuse and now his phone is disconnected. I have remained patient and quite during this time. I have been told multiple times that is ready to ship...only to find out more excuses. I have nothing personal with "Sam" other than letting myself be
"Played " and feeling like the worlds biggest schmuck !
BEWARE OF MBK 1 and SAM MANTINI. I have been silent till now... I really have no choice but Togo public at this point

Well Mr. ZJeffer, I am very sorry to hear this. I would probably do the same and not expect a return. However, it may still show up just when you lose hope. Dealing with a startup company requires lots of patience. I truly hope you eventually see your bike. At least, in the meantime, you have another bike to work on. Keep the faith, my friend.

Hi Zefer, I too have a MBK-1 on order which is close to completion. I was up at Sam's place last week and seen your bike, trust me, you will not be disappointed! This is the first batch of mini bikes Sam and his dad are producing, they have put a tremendous amount of thought and work into this project and have had to overcome many obstacles. They are good people and are not out to rip anybody off, they are learning as they go and I'm sure the next batch of mini bikes will go much smoother. Not many people are putting this much effort into designing and building new mini bikes, in the end we will have something very special to enjoy and share with our mini bike friends.

Thank you for the reassurance. I hope things work out ok. If I ever get it it'll be a miracle.DHL was supposed to have delivered it yesterday...by end of the day...
Not.. I will stay hopeful and post up as I move along with the project

I have been following this since the birth of the idea and this is why I'm waiting at least 2 years after startup to see what everything looks like after that. I believe it's the real deal and a company ran by perfectionist. Lol

Call me a pessimist if you want to, but...new minibike companies do not have a good history of success. Two years from now, I will be surprised if this company is still around. I truly hope they succeed, I wish them the best of luck and I REALLY hope we have a new American minibike builder, but the market is pretty limited and the lawyers are out there. Get them while you can!

I am more than impressed. The powder coating is flawless in
Illusion ruby red. The individual parts are of the highest quality fit and finish. I must give Sam his due props on this... I was loosing the faith for a minute and then I got the DHL tracking number
And a nice guy delivered it no damage to the container and it was packed n wrapped perfectly so as not a mark on it.
