When I first heard of this $999 pedal drive kayak, they RIOT MAKO 10, I was like nah, it is probably not that good, but after seeing in person you can see that it is a well designed boat, looks amazing and ready to fish, compact and holds a lot of weight. I'm going to get one soon to do a full proper reviews and stability tests!
There is also the Riot Mako 12, Riot Mako 14, and Riot Mako 15 tandem, reg and angler version
Thanks Mark for helping out with this walkthru.

I have a riot mako 10 manufactured March 2021 sold through Bi-Mart under the name Cascade Pro. I’ve watched all the videos on UA-cam and have made a few basic changes that make it perform better for me. First, I replaced the rudder line with a thinner and more flexible cord that makes it a lot easier to deploy and retract the rudder. Secondly I disconnected the rudder steering line (Left the wire cable inside the tubes) and tied the thinner cord to the rudder, routed the cord outside on top the rear sides up to under the seat and tied off with slack in front of seat. Now it is way easier to steer and can make sharper turns on the water with no effort at all! I recommend checking all screws to insure they are tight before initial use. I also used thinner cord to make an anchor trolley that slides easier. Under the seat I keep a dry bag with a towel. I also store the original heavy black line under the seat for use a a tow line. This model came with a chair that allows an additional five inches for the back rest to be moved backwards. I’ve also installed large drain plugs and made them into self draining. Additionally I molded keel guards for front and rear bottom hull protection. FYI, I’m 70 years old, 6’-1” and 225 lbs. and can easily load this light weight kayak. It stays dry inside for me and is very stable!
Been eyeing this kayak for a while. Looking forward to your on the water test. Thanks for another awesome review!
Thanks Ray, hopefully we get it down here soon
Aliex another amazing video. I like this yak and think it's going to turn quite a few heads. Priced as fair as you could ask for what you get and seems to be decent quality from here behind the screen. Seriously Aliex, no one brings more new kayak videos to the market than you. Always showing us what's out there. If I built them you would have one. Bet someone figures that out before long.
Thanks Greenpea 🙂 I missed this one at icast so I said I need to find a way to make a video hehe
i know Im kinda randomly asking but does anybody know of a good website to watch new movies online?
Aliex can u please take this kayak out on water test it for reviews thank u
In the works
Pls check the description for pricing info on all models. Thanks Jimmy
I'll wait until your test review on it. hopefully soon.
working on getting an unit for review soon, may be a week or two
I like the price point but it needs a pressure release in case the prop strikes a log or runs aground. The top waters also need this function, having to leave the drive unlocked is a workable but there is a better way
Did you know I drove 500 miles to make this video? That's about $100 in gas $25 in tolls and $17 is parking, but yeah making videos is free
And the ad revenue on it is only $97 so far so I'm losing money on it
Always good to see a quality low priced product that gets people out on the water.
Awesome stuff bro, the 14 is for you
The Riot website only lists one dealer in NC, and it's a couple hours away. I checked thier website and the Riot Mako isn't on it. I'll call them Monday to see if they have one on site to check out. The Topwater PDL is not in stock yet at local dealers either.
I drove 4 hours to see it at the expo show 😉 show , better be sure than making the wrong decision
I have a riot mako but my steering is different then this one and I don’t have the hatch under the seat
Probably gonna order one this weekend but I gotta see a warranty on the drive its water lubricated thats tellin me plastic components
Wow very promising!! Can't wait to see your review!
Hopefully we get one in soon, but it looks like it may not happen
The question is where can you purchase one here in the states? I havent been able to find a dealer
There is a dealer in Texas, the 12 is in amazon
FYI the $999 msrp model will not be the one in the video. They have the angler model that will be $1199.99.
This is their angler version, the regular one has the pedals too, they have several versions

5. fish rod accessory mountable on left/right track of the kayak.
Thanks I'll add it to the description, doesn't seen like it is missing anything major, just extra accessories like the hatch bucket, anchor trolley, and anchor cleat. The circular tackle box looks like an add on accessories
I am trying to decide between this Mako 12 drive and the Pescador Pilot 12 right now.... I hope there is more reviews coming out on the Mako yaks soon.
Pilot is a cool boat, I like it ...haven't use the Mako yet ,hopefully soon
Do you have an email.... would love to chat with you. I can get the Pescador Pilot for $1500 cash new, is this good deal?

Did they say what the release date they expect the14 ft to be able to be purchase
Overall a very nice fishing kayak. I think for the money you can’t beat it. I’m impressed with the weight capacity on a 10’ platform. It also only weighs 66lbs which should make it fairly quick on the water and easy to load/unload. After seeing this I’m really intrigued to see their 14’ model.
looks like the 14 is gonna be a thermoformed which would make it lighter, but lots of people have questions about 2 piece kayaks
Aliex Fishing On their website the weight for the 10’ Mako Angler is 50.7 lbs and 58.2 lbs. Why are two different weights given?
Because it depends what they decide to weight, some weigh the hull with nothing on it, others the hull and the seat and the hatches etc it is a big mess
Aliex Fishing Thank you. Believe the video said the drive unit weighs 8 pounds, so perhaps it is actually just under that which would make the 50.7 lbs and 58.2 lbs difference.
Just seen your video love it do you have dealers in Colorado? Im looking to get one by spring so far im looking at the pelican catch 100,big fish 105 or headwaters lure 105 love your price for pedal drive
Thanks for the price break down is there any dealers in Colorado or do you have to order
Does anybody see the possibility of that pedal drive fitting right in to the bonafide. Do they sell it separately and how much?
only one way to find out!? lol, it should go thru the problem is attaching it properly
Lollll I hopefully not lol
Interesting. When will it come out?
I think I have affiliate links in the description to buy it check it out
@@AliexFolgueira link died or did not work in Amazon website
Definitely take it out to review it. Its to good to be true 1300$ and pedal drive awesome big guy yak
Hopefully I'll get to review the 10ft soon
Thanks for the video Alex. I looked at one today and am now looking for UA-cam user reviews before making the purchase. I loved it in person and only wish I could try it in the water prior to purchase. I will only be using it on small lakes and am leaning towards the 10 footer (it is also the only size the store carries). Did you ever get one to test?
My friend Justin kayak diy got two! He is gonna make videos soon
Where is the warehouse out in CA?
I really want one of these. Im limited to a 10ft with my starage situation, but i fish some flat water entryways, but the bay areas can get fairly rough. Im in between this or an old town topwater 106.
the topwater pdl is $2000, i like the kayak, super stable and fast, I can't say much about this one until I test it. So far it looks like the real thing
I wouldntget the topwater pdl. Out of my price range. Why im so interested in the riot, spend a little more and get the drive system.
I watched a few videos of it on the water, it moves fast and and it doesn't have the slippery thing
If the quality, customer service and warranty are good, I might pick one up. Overall it looks like a solid pedal kayak. Would be nice parked next to my SS127 lol.
#teambluebonafide! lol
thats a really fair price for what you get. Nice !
That's right
How does this one compare to the topwater pdl?
I will know soon, I haven't take it on the water yet
Aliex Folgueira right on!.. I really appreciate your reviews and your knowledge 👊🏽.. Just trying to get the better bang for my buck. I have four kid so my budgets kinda tight
Can the 12 footer fit a black pak?
I wish there was a dealer near me. I would love to check one out in person.
Go to riotkayaks.com, search for a local dealer
I did. Closest one is in Florida. I am in Texas.
Wow ! Amazon has the 12ft version free shipping here is an affiliate link amzn.to/2MXymF6
Mark Deskin Fishing Same here. I wish some dealers here in the DFW area carried these.
Mark Deskin Fishing Mark Deskin Fishing I live in Texas and had one delivered to me from California so far it’s great ! I did a couple of reviews on it check out my page.
Hey Alex do you think the riot pedal drive would be easy to adapt to a bonafied ss 127
Looks like it but I'm not sure
I'd like to see this one head to head with the Catch 130, as far as stability, anyway. I do like the instant reverse.
is this pedaling power more efficient than the paddle power kayaks, for fishing purposes?
Yes pedal kayaks are faster than paddle for the most part you get a mile more per hour on the same boat, plus you get hands free fishing
not worried about salt water? huh? I wonder what their warranty is on that drive
Good question, I tried to get one for review but they always gave me the "in 3 months, then in 6 months" kayak diy got two hopefully he posts his reviews soon, headwaters Kayak did a review on similar model
Hola saludos desde canada 🇨🇦 recién te descubri y me encanta tus contenidos
Hola, gracias 🙏 como está el tiempo por allá ? Much frío ?
I really like this kayak alot! Another awesome video from aliex
what did you think about the edit? I finished it in one hour and then decided to improve on it and keep working on it for 3 more hours.
What you think of Hoodoo tempest 120P kayak? They are a new comer, hoodoosports.com . Maybe you can do a review on this kayak.
Did you stop by riot this year?
Yeah but I didn't make videos, kayakdiy will
Aliex--I heard the pedal drive is made with plastic. If that's true do you think there's a good chance it might not hold up for long?
tmk240712 there are some extremely durable plastics on the market that relate to aircraft etc. I believe the unit is made up of 6 parts all of which I understand are serviceable by users - hopefully if parts are made available.
The hull yak is plastic, hobie Mirage drive has plastic on it too. Cellphone used to be plastic ....I wouldn't worry too much
I've had the 12 foot angler version in my Amazon wish list since i-cast, but I was waiting fur more than 1 user verified review. Looks like a good value but I would like to see real world footage
I'm gonna be getting the 10, not the 12 but should should be too diff
the 10' has already been demo'ed. a lot of us are looking for the 12' demo. Several others have demo'ed, plus standing even on the 10' Mako - but are still editing them.
Gary Jensen What is the difference between the standard and Angler versions?
Awesome. That is how much all pedal kayak supposed to be.
Nice entry prices, they have reg version and anglers from 999 up
Looks good! I like the simplicity of the drive. My hesitations would be one of two different scenarios:
1) the depth of the draft, which I think in a previous video they said was 20”. That makes it not ideal for fishing very skinny flats.
2) the 10’ length is too short for surf in my opinion, even though they specifically said they designed the hull for surf entry. You’d definitely need the 12’ at least for open water in my opinion. And again that very deep draft bothers me.
Can't wait to test all those things hehe, the motor draft doesn't look like 20" actually it looks smaller than the Native Slayer. 10ft is an issue to paddle in the ocean but since you the pedals, I have seen little kayaks go thru really rough waters
Aliex Fishing good points; I’ll be interested to see you test this one out!
So far I’m still leaning toward the Pelican HD when it comes out.
a rep told me the actual measurement to bottom of prop to ground is 12".
WoodCravings thanks! That’s much better than 20 for sure.
This is a nice kayak. Thanks
Yess I'm trying to get one but is taking a while
That will get more people hands free fishing on a budget.
100% agreed, even for those with premium yaks can add this as a second
The Seat seems to be too far in the back of the yak. This could have issues with stability. Any experiences?
Hopefully we get to test all that soon
Very nice. So Aliex we need a guinea pig to test it? I think it's you bro. Give the pedal drive a crazy test. I already like the only 6 moving parts. Get some red bull and go for it. Thanks bro
Reds? Gonna get a 6 ft shark!
I agree with Simply Rise, love to see a torture test on the drive and a review on the kayak overall. If it is possible.
Can the peddle drive be purchased separately?
I think they may, not completely sure
they promote it as being sold seperately and that it fits other platforms.
Well, if u want a review ... I have owned the Riot Mako 12 fishing kayak, sky camo blue for about 2 months. Love it ... but make sure u get the fixed pedal drive ( there was an issue with the first version of drive). It's no Hobie, but for the price ($1300) ... I have a pedal yak! ... WAY better than paddling. But drive has issues where I go ... California Delta ... lotsa Tullies, hyacinths, & other seaweed crap to deal with. Ya pull drive up & fix it ... just like a hobie.
Oh, & the glass bottomBoat idea to see prop as u remove it ... genius. I predict this for other brands in future.
My review unit should be coming soon, propel drive yaks have issues with sand, let's see how this one performs
Would you happen to have an estimate of the draft on this boat with the peddle drive raised out of the water? I fish the marsh a lot for redfish and it can get pretty shallow.
That actually looks like a great boat
it does look like a nice boat, gotta test it on the water to make sure
@@AliexFolgueira you gonna get your hands on one?
NOW THE PRICE OF THAT PLUS A LIL BIXBIE MORTOR IS DOABLE. THANKS FOR THE VIDEO 👍🏽
Awesome! And thank you for watching 😎
Me gustaría contribuir a tu canal , no se bien como hacerlo . Si puedes explicame
Can we get them in Australia
Feelfree makes its kayaks in Thailand maybe the ship to Australia too
Great video Aliex
thanks bro, how are you doing with your bonafide?
Man I love it when you did the video on it all I said was that's the one I've been in it 2 times all I can said is Wow!
Awesome!!
I am 230 pounds 6foot3 took it out and the back end got waterlogged kayak flipped not a good kayak on chop 😅 water 40 degrees 20foot deep thank god I only lost 2 rods not my life
@@WalleyeNebraska you need a big kayak 13ft by 36 in at least cat hull
Looks like a great kayak and very affordable.
Yeah bro, can't wait to use it
i'm interested but i'll wait until you take it out before i decide
I'll try to get one quick!
Aliex Fishing, get the 12 footer!
Aliex check out my channel I own one and made an on the water review of it
I just posted a water test of the Mako 12 on my channel.
THAT pedal drive looks like it would fit the Bonafide!!! >:) Btw, do you live right by an expo center where they release all the new kayaks? Lol Another great video! GJ Aliex!
That’s a really nice kayak
i like how small it is and looks super functional
I feel like I need to see it in person. The layout is meh. But progress
In person looks so cool, it is a compact yak, the 12 will have more room of course
Lol free merch for youtubers nice! You know where the honey is!
You know it! Lol
I am highly regretting buying the feel free lure 11.5 :/ wish I would of waited :(
What I would say is this, there is always new coming, if you always wait you will never do. That being said you can always sell and buy. 🙂
I was in Hawaii a few months back and Feel Free Kayaks were everywhere. We took a bunch out on a nighttime snorkel and I really liked them. The "Wheel in the Keel was pretty cool. What don't you like about them?
Cory Hamilton well you see, I’ve always wanted a pedal drive kayak but couldn’t afford one so I bought the feelfree becuase i likes the sonarpod and how stable it is. If I would have waited I could of got this one. I have nothing against it except it’s so dang slow due to how wide it is. I love it though! I’m going to install a trolling motor on it this weekend to help me get to far spots to fish. I’d rather have a pedal drive one though becuase I like being active and burning calories but paddling this tank sure wore me out and I didn’t enjoy my fishing day. I can buy a $900 pedal drive for it but why do that when I can spend $1000 on a brand new kayak that has pedal drive and it’s not 80lbs like the feelfree is.
Cory Hamilton also it would be a lot easier and more enjoyable using a pedal drive. Paddling that tank is a hell of a work out especially when you’re fighting the wind.
Aliex Fishing haha that’s very true! Thanks for the vid man I’ll definitely try and get one of these kayaks when Income tax comes around.
I’m gonna save up for this like right now
Ohh yeah! Nice pedal yak at $1000
Good looking yak Cheers!! :))
Yes it is, thank bro
I am more than happy with my bonafide ss127.
bro the bonafide with a motor on it, for me it is the best! inshore and bass..offshore this thing looks worthy
Now we are talking less than 1k with drive included is a good price
Its a 1700dollar kayak in europe🤣
Would love to see a long term review of this. We’ve seen nothing but broken boats and upset customers with this yak.
I was supposed to get one in, but they never sent it, gave up asking for it. Are you gonna be at icast? If you see me say hi, I'll say hi when I see ya 😁
Not at I-cast this year. I’ll be at Paddlesports Retailer
East_Tex_Will
Aliex can do anything. Anything!!!
Lol
Looks great
would you get one? do you think it is too good to be true? I can't wait to test it
Aliex Fishing I am not a fisherman. I would like to see how it works for camping.
Probably the 12 is better for camping
Funny, in europe its 1700euros so not even close to 1000dollar, more like 1700dollar for a mako 10😬😬😬😬😬
Awesome !!!
Awesome price for sure, can't wait to test it
Interesting. Thats a reasonable cost even at 12 bills.
Yeah has a lot of goodies
I like it!
Who is getting one of these ?
I'll test that soon!!
Already ordered one . Waiting to pick it up
Not me just got my bonafide SS 127 2 days ago and I'm in love
Aliex, this boat looks great, but I have a request. Can YOU do a review on the 3 Waters Big Fish. I've seen a few reviews and most seem to be very positive. It's a budget friendly kayak that's seems to be in my price range. Just want your take on it.
Well Jack what I meant was I'm in love with my bonafide
Mark looks like Puddy from Seinfeld.
i think i look like myself, yup
You actually look like a friend of mine named Lumpy but he's not someone you probably would know. lol
@@JoeCnNd lol
Under 1000 still dear...geeza
Not in europe. .1700dollars for it here
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Wow sign me up nice
take my money!!! lol
Haaaaaaaa. Love your videos bro
Thanks man
You get what you pay for folks... All of the components of the drive are plastic - the flywheel, plastic, the drive gears, plastic. That garbage isn't going to hold up over time. To top it off, since it has an all plastic drive-train (no grease) the thing is louder than a dozen rattletraps ripping through the water. This thing is a moneygrab...
How can it be a money grab If it was selling for $1000 at the time? Seriously the internet is a weird place, here is $30,000 give me a Lamborghini! Yeah that's what it is worth! Anything else is a money grab
@@AliexFolgueira Yeah they're selling these things at cost (sarcasm)... sure thing Aliex. They're selling for profit, so they're getting margins on that $1k (how much is unknown) so their price point illustrates the cheap materials and inferior craftsmanship overall. I simply called out the cheap, plastic, absolutely will fail garbage drive - but to your point, the entire thing is garbage (not just the drive). Save the $1k, save some more on top of that and get something better... Or be an Aliex and pretend this is a deal.
Cheap AF!
Looks like a copy of everything in the market. Made in China. Still a bang for the buck i guess.
Yup
First 😋
Hey awesome to see you being first again!
MADE IN CHINA
So is the phone you used to type this
