I’d go with the InMotion, for sure. It’s pretty common for commuter scooters to have a single disc brake, but the dual electronic braking on that probably makes the braking pretty good, and of course it’ll handle hills very well. I know it’s pretty decently weather rated, which is a factor lots of places. When I go to work, especially in the summer, it could rain in the afternoon pretty much any day and it’s a big bonus to be ok getting wet.
i like how they actually respond to random youtube comments like this too, shows theyre quite interactive with the community! wouldnt see this from most companies
Enjoyed this video. But, was hoping for some kind of comparison summary at the end discussing the specs of each scooter, observations about pros and cons of each, and personal preferences.
Any of those scooters would have been perfect for that 2-mile walk i did from the bus stop to a dental office in the suburbs. I'd only need the ability to install a basket for those impromptu shopping trips. Nice review.
For as infrequently as you lock up, look up the Two Fish Lockblocks U-Lock Mount. You can Velcro the Kryptonite to lots of surfaces, even hang it from your handlebar. I even used it with a pocket flashlight one time on my bike when I was caught out in the dark.
One trick you can use to keep stores from giving you grief about bringing your scooter inside is to grab a hand basket at the entrance and drop it on your scooters deck. Then your scooter just becomes a shopping cart. I've never had a complaint doing that. The biggest concern stores have is that you're going to ride it indoors, but with a hand basket on the deck it's not easily rideable, so they don't think twice about it. When it comes to commuter scooters I'd go with an emove cruiser S if I were going to give up my dual motor performance scooter (haha would never happen.) The emove cruiser S is a beast. Unbeatable range, performance scooter speeds, good brakes, good build quality (just be sure to add thread lock.) It will also outlast any other scooter on the market. You will have that thing for an eternity. It's a tad heavy for a commuter scooter, but still carriable with one arm, so I'd consider it one.
A couple of my son's frends use scooters like that for going to college on and really seem to enjoy it and zip along quite nicely but both of them would love one of the bigger scooters but the police give them a hard time feel like they need to control everything but that's a different story 👍✌but also it is supriseing how much quicker it is than walking
Hey Yogi Steve there's a new version of the Climber out now. It has factory installed turn signals and a new controller. It'd be awesome if you got hold of one for a side-by-side with the earlier version. 🤘👍
if their customer service is not good then that could be a deal breaker for me. it's between the fluid mosquito, the inmotion climber and the etwow gt sport.
@yogadude1234 do you use after market tires on your personal scooters, or do you stick with stock tires? I’ve had a couple of flats this month, so I’m considering getting a higher quality tire to see if that helps. I’ve got an Apollo Ghost which uses 10x3” tires.
i use stock tires - I'm not really a big into modifications unless I feel like the scooter need it - in the case of tires the only real upgrad you can make is to PMTs - main advantage of those tires as you can plug them if they get a hole. they may have better performance, but a lot of these guys out here think they are freaking electric scooter racers it's not really necessary
@@yogadude1234 thanks. I looked at those PMT tires, and they look pretty durable, so I'll give them a shot. The tires I have poke holes in the tube the instant I inflate it it seems
I honestly think the eMove cruiser is the best commuter scooter. Bit on the heavy side, but it’s price accessible, if it isn’t, refurbished is a couple hundred more accessible. And it’s repairable, dual brake, and has nice comfortable feel, folds up compact enough to carry inside my semi and be out of the road. All the ones you showed are just TOO small. (Especially for any commuters that are in the heavy side.) I max out the eMove cruiser at 352 and it’s solid at my weight. I don’t try to run 30 everywhere though.
My issue with remove is that they don't sell outside north America. I wanted one too 😢 but that inmotion climber seems stronger in hill but less range.
@@Natsukashii1111 might be a work around if you wanted to have it imported. Find someone to buy it and pay shipping, but it’s very not small, which means shipping would be that way too.
I still have a Very Old NanRobot x-4. I don’t think they make them anymore, but get this..35 lbs. 26 mph. 10.4 ah 48volt battery. I can carry it easily up and down stairs. Has a loud electric horn, front coil springs but no rear suspension. Air filled 9” front tire and solid rear tire. Zippy AF, you have to be aware because it’s rear wheel drive. I’ve wheelie/crashed a handful of times on it, even while rolling, then nailing, the throttle. I’m on my third battery. I make my own now (simple configuration), they seem to last about 2 years with decent cells (I’m using 21700 cells). I use this scooter EVERY time I go shopping, to the post office, ect. It’s just too easy to carry!! I wish you could include one of these in your comparison. It’ll go UP a 20 degree hill FASTER than a Lime can go DOWN the same hill..
Isn't the EMove Touring a commuter scooter? I have one and love it. 25 mph, 25-30 mile range, 30 lbs, solid wheel in the back, tubeless in the front. Hard to beat IMO. Watch out for the Zombies. 🙂
I work 2nd shift so I get out after dark most nights. I got a commuter scooter last year to get home more safely. It's only a 10-minute walk so a short range cheaper scooter was fine for me.
I have had the climber for a week now, 60+ miles. 6.4miles each way to work. No major hills. Avg 21mph on flat ground and about 14-miles range pretty much wide open the whole way.
My bread and butter is commuter scooters. I don't work for or represent Hiboy, but I send a lot of business their way. The Hiboy MAX Pro is my favorite model. I believe on a full battery, the S2R would have pulled the hill for you. Clearly the dual motor scooter is going to win the hill climbing battle. Might not be a fair fight. I dig the comparison style video, and look forward to hearing your full thoughts on them.
It's also cheaper. I looked into lots of brand but I love in Europe and both hiboy and remove don't ship there. Kinda sad as hiboy got good seated comuter scooter.
I actually don't like InNOut that much. I think it's way overrated. I mean I'm only eating McDonald's out if momentary desperation I shouldn't be eating that anyhow.
I just received my InMotion. Best scooter ever. It has the first responsive (instead of off/on) throttle, reasonable speed control (I don't want to go more than 23), regen breaking controlled through a classy app. Overall InMotion is perfect for Seattle. I set the regen to 100% in the app. Perfect.
It was only one thing missing that would have made this the perfect non delivery video and that is if you stopped to get some sweet delicious herbal medication🤣
It hasn’t got bad braking (climber) it’s got two wheel electric brakes and one mechanical, and you can adjust the electrics in the app. More than enough braking.
Thank you yogi steve .. I may ride my smaller scooter as well tommorow wide wheel pro 48v 15ah 54lbs .. Change is sacred ..i know im use to riding 60v 6000w 33ah with a seat so this shall be interesting .. I may film this one as well .. 🛴 👀
I have a Segway ninebot without suspension. I want to upgrade to a scooter that at full exceleleration my feet are parallel with my shoulders. Hang on and don't let go.
"You're all gross! Gross, zombies! Okay let's go get taco bell!"
Always happy to spend some time watching Yogi Steve do his thing🙌🏽

Thanks for your support!😁 Means a lot!

@@INMOTIONSCV thanks for your reply. I like your EUCs most, but your scooters definitely seem pretty nice also. You make some great products.
perfect timing! i was thinking about buying a scooter to get around
LFG !!!!!!!!!
You are amazing👍
I just delivered for 2 hours earlier today for Glovo in my city on 41 degrees)

Taco Bell, McDonalds, and Ice Cream. Yogi Steve is my spirit animal.

I would like to but this company is hard to work with. No US reps for the Climber 😢
@@yogadude1234 OK. I see Voro stock the Climber. Maybe they'll have the new one to give you a look at next time you visit. 🤞

Why would you eat at McDonald’s when there is an In-n-Out right there?
I actually don't like InNOut that much. I think it's way overrated. I mean I'm only eating McDonald's out if momentary desperation I shouldn't be eating that anyhow.
In and out is exactly like McDonald’s but with fewer choices and more price
They can be used for fun too :)
You should try the Mosquito its only about 25 pounds and it can reach 28mph.
for me it's between the mosquito, climber, and etwow gt sport

I really like it after my first 50miles 100%! Second delivery shift on it dropping today 😯
Does McDonald's not do free refills anymore?
this one in Hollywood at least does not. I noticed the sign.

It hasn’t got bad braking (climber) it’s got two wheel electric brakes and one mechanical, and you can adjust the electrics in the app. More than enough braking.
it's probably gonna be the winner. I've been using it recently.
@@yogadude1234 it’s a good scooter apart from its low range.
Your weight?
About 180 lbs
I told you, you can take the scooter inside!
It looks like the weight could pull you over.
ha maybe!
best electricscooter weped
good luck getting parts for that in America
Yo yo yo

Nothing like the smell of hot garbage to make you hungry for McNastys!
