Highway 152 lb and I'm 6'1. I feel like for me the scooter would be really fast and climb up pills with little to no issue. I had the S2 pro before, I also had no issues at all with it. I gave it to my sister's son though to be nice. Just ordered the S2 max. Some people say they were able to go around a year before the tire popped, some people complained within 10 miles of having a stem leak. I wonder if you reviewed this long enough to experience that issue. Regardless I pre-ordered some very strong liners for the tires and I got brand new high performance tubes that won't break so easily
@@dylanebanks9737 dude, it much better! The best thing about it, Is it's built quality is way better/stronger. The stem is thicker with no stem wobbles, it has better acceleration, climbs hills faster at a constant speed, better headlights and the wheels are better because they are air filled, so it's smoother and takes most bumps in the rhode very well !
@@dylanebanks9737 I did get a flat on the back wheel after 3 months but I had it fixed at a scooter repair shop for just $40. Also hiboy sent me a new wheel for free
That's awesome? If I can get a range of over 16 miles, then I can go to church more regularly. I returned the GoTrax because at max speed, I could only get about 8 miles on a 25 mile range advertised!!
I have one of those. I really like it for the price. I have been surprised how fast the low end on the battery disappears. Especially in cold weather. I bet if you hit that hill at full speed you would have had a good chance.
@@ElectricRevolution seems like when it comes to ebikes and scooters they never give the range specified, rather half of it or less. this scooter is 40 mi range I think and you only got 16 to 17 miles, which is still some distance I guess
My S2 Pro is outpreforming your review. I'm consistently get 19 to 20 mph and 20 miles of range in sport mode. I'm 5'8" and 170 lbs. I would think the only difference is hill climbing due to the 48v system. Im not sure why there is no speed hacks for these scooters?
15 lbs does make a difference with these types of scooters, is what I have found so makes sense that it's performing better for you and yeah there needs to be some speed hacks for sure
this is a great video and I like your stuff! one question though: how does it charge? I have a ninebot max with two different ways to charge like with a built in power converter and I'm wondering if this scooter has the same charging options as the ninebot max as I've seen similar looking charging covers from the stock photos.
I liked the both, the Niu is more techy, this is just a basic scooter but both ride and feel the same, depends if you want a techy look or more basic design
May I ask where those trails are? I'm in Arizona. To me, that looks like New Mexico. And also, I weigh 125. Do you think I could make those inclines at my weight, the ones that couldn't carry you?
Hey guys S2 Max or Ninebot Max? Currently Amazon has $150 coupon on the S2 Max and I'm just trying to decide which one would be better for a city like NYC
Honestly, they are pretty much the same scooter, so get whichever you can get at a better price. I managed to get a $680 deal on the S2 Max and I love it so far. If I got a similar deal on a Ninebot, I would’ve went with it.
@@christianmarmol3230 Good to know then! My S2 Max never goes beyond 19 mph unless going downhill (despite clearly having enough punch, feels like throttle just cuts off when the speedo shows 19 mph). Only thing I don’t love about it is that the app can be a lot better, that’s about it.
Wait till you get a rear flat. The scooter works great but finding a place that services em is impossible. The valve stem on the rear wheel of my scooter came loose and it's impossible to get a tool in there to tighten the bolt that fastens the stem to the rim. As I write this my son and I are going to attempt to fix this valve stem by removing the rear wheel to gain access to the nut holding the stem. Wish us luck.
does hiboy support recommend anything at all? I got the scooter and am paranoid about getting flats and not knowing how to deal with them. I know hot to deal with a flat on a bike, but no clue how to deal with scooters. And I don’t know somebody who does lol.
Did you fix it? Question , I just purchased this and on the ad it shows they have made the rear wheel a split hun to help changing the tires. At the time hou wrote this was yours like that or is that an uodated feature?
Nice review as always Hiboy makes some pretty solid Scooters but very weighty if you're a commuter Like me. I'm currently using a SunL M2Pro / Kugoo M2pro and that scooter is a beast of a scooter compared to The Hiboy Max I owned but sent back. Didn't like the locking mechanism .p.s and the size and weight of it. Battery was crap when battery was low .
Hey everyone, I just got the hiboy ks4 pro and the app initially linked to the scooter without an issue. After riding it only two times the app has to research for the scooter and is unable to find it. I tried looking up how to fix this, but had no luck. Any recommendations?
@@ElectricRevolution thank you, it ended up working the next day and has been working fine since. I appreciate you’re reply. Have a blessed day and thank you for your content.
My issue is that customer support is non-existent. This maybe a great scooter but their customer service is nonexistent. No matter how good the product is the lack of attention and response is appalling for todays day and age.
This is an excellent upgrade from the Hiboy S2, I can't wait to purchase one myself, Hiboy makes the best e-scooters
just bought one,. put a quik 25 klm on it didnt even use half the juice and had a huge amount of fun,. im 36 and weigh at least 200 all year round.
How does it handle hills on a 10-15% incline?
For about a 1/4 or so at a time
It will hit 40 miles if you ride in eco mode where there are not a lot of hills, if its not too windy, and if you are under 160 lbs.

How you liking it so far ? I’m a little heavier and gets me up hills no issues . Def would take more speed but I got a seat and with tax paid 688$ .
finally someone does a review on this one. I have the hiboy s2 pro and thinking of getting this new one later this yr
Right on, this is a pretty good scoot for sure
@@ElectricRevolution ordered it and just got it today. I used you're discount code with the sale price and got it for under $700
@@christianmarmol3230How do you like it compared to the Pro?

FYI the advertised range is always half of manufacturer specs, this is due to lots of variations compared to what's being tested with manufacturers
@@noahmessick8801 Thanks! I'm looking into the Emove Cruiser if you have heard of that one
It's performing more like a 350w motor scooter.
Good. I'd rather have a 180 watt brick with a 65 watt PC.
Longer life, less strain.
He could also not have it in sport mode

Nice review. So what does incline percentage equate to in degrees? Thx.
Not sure off the top of my head, I've googled it before
Can you help me please what's the best e scooter I can get for $500-$800 bucks I'm 6'2 255lbs
Check out my website, has a bunch of options in that price range electricrevolutionreviews.com/

@@ElectricRevolution hm.. thank you! Love your vids.
This scooter or niu kqi3 pro im torn between to two whats better since u have reviewed both
Niu is not as good as u think. I have the kqi3 pro and the range is more like 20-25 kilometres and there some minor issues with the breaks.
I liked the both, the Niu is more techy, this is just a basic scooter but both ride and feel the same, depends if you want a techy look or more basic design
May I ask where those trails are? I'm in Arizona. To me, that looks like New Mexico. And also, I weigh 125. Do you think I could make those inclines at my weight, the ones that couldn't carry you?
That was filmed in southern Utah and yeah for your weight, you should be fine
Hey guys S2 Max or Ninebot Max? Currently Amazon has $150 coupon on the S2 Max and I'm just trying to decide which one would be better for a city like NYC
Never reviewed the Ninebot but hard to go wrong with Hiboy, solid scooter and comapany
I would say the s2 max
Honestly, they are pretty much the same scooter, so get whichever you can get at a better price. I managed to get a $680 deal on the S2 Max and I love it so far. If I got a similar deal on a Ninebot, I would’ve went with it.
@@TheBatracho not exactly. The hiboy s2 max can hit 20mph and has a better acceleration then the segway
@@christianmarmol3230

Please review the Hiboy VE1 Pro
Does the dashboard have speed and battery percentage or were you using the app?
Screen shows it
Wait till you get a rear flat. The scooter works great but finding a place that services em is impossible. The valve stem on the rear wheel of my scooter came loose and it's impossible to get a tool in there to tighten the bolt that fastens the stem to the rim.

The world is in some desperate need of scooter repair shops... you should start one up! ;)

Nice reviwe looks like a
Good scooter for it's
Price point.
Thanks
I thought it was. Thanks for watching
Can you add suspension to this?
I wouldn't think so
That scooter got the eABS regerative brakes for the battery ???
No

Is Hiboy KS4 Pro just as good as this one?
Haven't reviewed it so can't say
I have it. Its a decent scooter. Its kinnda heavy though….
I just returned the KS4 pro to try the S2 Max. I'm hoping for this one to be slightly better considering the prices alone.
Hey can you put a seat on the Hiboy S2 max ???? Waiting on mine to come in
I bet you can, there’s a bunch of companies on Amazon that make seats for scooters, I’d try there
I’d really like to know if you can install I seat on the hiboy S2 max
I think that's an option, I'd reach out to the company directly
Mine is not connecting to the Bluetooth
I'm getting this scooter

Hay guys, weigh 250 lbs and need a scooter with a seat option. Trying to stay a grand or less. Sure would appreciate some help and thanks in advance!.
For your size, I'd do dual motor, gonna cost more but will last longer. Check out my website, may help ya decide electricrevolutionreviews.com/
*A bit challenging to clean.*
I lost my charger guys.. what do I do?
Reach out directly to the company or see if they have a similar one on Amazon
Thank you!
