Horizon

Fluid Free Ride (fluidfreeride.com) is a US-based electric-scooter retailer and house brand founded out of Miami in the mid-2010s, better known for importing performance machines like the Mantis and for its own value-focused line. The Horizon is the brand's answer to the mass-market Xiaomi/Ninebot commuters: instead of the usual single-suspension budget board, Fluid built a genuinely full-suspension scooter and priced it barely above a stock M365. First sold around 2019-2020, it earned a reputation as one of the cheapest e-scooters you could buy with suspension at both ends. In 2023 Fluid shipped the V2 revision, keeping the same drivetrain and geometry but reworking the parts riders complained about most: a waterproof IP66 display, a nicer thumb throttle, an improved anti-splash mudguard and a rear grab-handle that doubles as a footrest for longer legs.
