I've been eyeing e-bikes for so long now, that I hadn't even considered looking into E-Scooters. Very thorough review. Learned a lot and for how compact this is, and the swappable battery, I can see why this is a preferred option for many over an e-bike.
I've had my RS5 for about 3 weeks. It's a beast and is just overall quality build. Has Nutt hydraulic brakes , 10 inch hybrid tires, a super bright headlight, top of the line hand grips and a removable battery. Also it goes the speed it states on the website . They give you the option to buy extended warranty which I did at 2 yrs for $200 more. Worth it because it covers everything
@@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide already broke my big toe and sprained my ankle 2 days ago after a lady pulled out in front of me. I hit both front and back brakes but I kept going. The rear went up in the air and I almost went over the handle bars but I planted both feet on the pavement and stopped that from happening. Unfortunately my left foot curled backwards. It's all black n blue but I'm able to walk. Just limping. No damage to the scooter. I was going maybe 24 mph.
I can't imagine going 42 mph on a scooter ... but it's nice to know I could. Love that you can easily remove and swap batteries. And the big center screen is nice.
Mine is coming this week can’t wait ! I’m sure someone that weighs less can get the Speed to the 45mph . I’ll come back with an update when mine arrives lol
I just got my first electric scooter and now I’m hooked. My new scooter came complete with no back break and lots of duct tape. Something like this seems like a Cadillac comparatively. I can dream tho and until I find the right one I’ll be here checking out all of the awesome options out there. 🎉
I've never thought about having an electric scooter- but this seems like a good introductory model. Some of the features, like the swappable battery- I wouldn't have even thought to look for something like that!
It's been nice knowing you, Paul! Thanks for all the reviews and being part of the ESG family 😔 goodluck with your life endeavors. Mr. RK9 will take over now... Just kidding! Haha. INCREDIBLE review by a veteran! Fresh new scooter too! 😎👍
Ha ha! I'm sticking around! We're so grateful to have Mitchell on board, so we can review even MORE scooters! (seriously, we were getting overrun!) It's also meant that I've been able to put an extra day or two into the last couple reviews. The Apollo Pro review might run 15 minutes long because there is just so much new stuff to cover! -Paul
@Electric Scooter Guide perfectly said, Paul! Yeah, what a treat to see him, and we are looking forward to more content herein now! Good luck from the best! ESG 🇺🇸
Nice review. I like the removable battery, sine wave controller, and tubeless tires. But I agree the buttons are cheap and outdated looking and detract from the overall feeling of being a premium scooter. If they could fix those issues it would be a top contender.
I really love that removable battery. That's premium. I also love the fact that it's easily foldable. I like that it holds a lot of weight too. Wish it didn't cost so much but that's probably necessary because we wouldn't want it to be short on the best features. This is on my Christmas list now. Thanks for the thorough review!
Great to see you on ESG, Mitchell. I've been an avid watcher of RK9 Rides and was getting disappointed that you hadn't uploaded anything in the first couple months of the year. What an awesome surprise!
RK9 lives on though. He was thwarted by snow! But no more.... he lives here in the Bay Area now, so you'll see him on ESG, and on RK9. I'm sticking around too! -Paul
Thanks Mitch… I presently have a Segway ninebot and a nanrobot DS4+ that I purchased from roadrunner… both are great but they are both over 2 years old , still ride great but I want an upgrade 🤷🏾♂️ this RS5 looks and sounds great.. I’m in NYC and our streets here a jacked up Fsho! Your video was a great help. You got a new subscriber brother… keep the vids coming 👍🏾
@@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide trust I already got my eye on that discount. Does that discount get bigger if I also purchase an extra battery at the same time🤔
This uses the same moulds as the VSett 10+ lets hope they are getting a fee for this or that they have permission! Great review new member of staff!! Thumbs up.
Thank you for the thorough review. It really helps me to decide when looking at this scooter to purchase. I really like the fact that scooter is taller than most.
I been debating about getting an electric bike or scooter for my son. your video is super informative. He doesn't go far, its just KS has some crazy weather. Fall in the morning, summer in the afternoon and spring at night.
was one of my options when i was shopping for my first dual motor scooter. came close and im aware it has recieved updated buttons and cockpit that being said mantis king gt won me over.
Until today April 2, 2023 I decided to buy this scooter after I spent 3 months looking for the right one for me. Use your code and get -$100 off. I bought it because just removing the battery and charging it without a scooter made me fall in love. Then I can buy a second battery and take a long trip and also the wheels are tubeless and it does 45 mph. My weight is 134 lbs so I shouldn't have a problem reaching that speed, by the way add a stabilizer for $134!
Love the swap-able battery, quality, hydraulic brakes, rear foot rest and the speed! Feel the price is just a lil too expensive though believe it should be below 2k
That would be a sweet upgrade from the emove I have now! I've mostly been a pretty big fan of Ninebot because of the affordability and parts availability, but love to support US based brands.
Looks great. I have an Emove Cruiser S, It was more in my price range. Plus it is smaller and lighter, for easier portability. If I upgrade, I will keep this mind.
Wow, the RoadRunner RS5+ looks like the perfect blend of style and performance! 🛴💨 I'm excited about its eco-friendly electric power, sleek design, and impressive range. As someone who's passionate about sustainable transportation, I can't wait to ride this scooter and contribute to a greener future. Kudos to the RiderFest team for bringing us such an awesome product! 🌿🌟
i like the acceleration and the overall look. dual motor sports scooter and decent suspension. i would think the size (weight) is hard for some to handle but still it's got a lot of great features.
Great review as always. Its a bit pricey, but it seems like it is probably worth it as it looks like it has the power and stability/comfort for longer rides.

Same factory as Vsett 10+ quite obviously. They didn't even try that hard to make it that different. The removeable battery is quite nice tho.
@@JamesFactionis
Great review!
Any updated working code?
Swappable batteries are becoming more and more common, such a good thing!
I’ve had my RS5 for 3 weeks now and i love it. Keep in mind, I’m 300 + lbs and this scooter doesn’t skip a beat!!
That’s awesome! Really glad you love it. -Vosk

I was thinking the same. Until I heard the voice. I was like, they have new faces huh? Lol

This scooter seems like one of the best on the market right now. Great review!!!
I love that the battery can be exchanged. This is a really neat device!❤
I know that either my son or daughter would absolutely love one of these!
I'm not as scared after watching this review. Would love to try!
Love the removable battery and the large LCD screen. Looks super fun and easy to handle.
This is awesome! I love the large, adjustable, readable screen. Thank you for the review.
Low key very helpful. This is the only scooter that meets my needs in this price, so thanks for helping me with my search!
Happy to help!

The battery size and the style reall make the scooter awesome. Just large enough for tall people like myself. Good job!
Right on!
Swappable batteries for the win!
I love this scooter. Would be a great first scooter for me.
Thank you for the thorough review. It really helps me to decide when looking at this scooter to purchase. I really like the fact that scooter is taller than most.
Glad it was helpful!
Looks and sounds like it should have plenty of power even for a larger person. Great for taking in our Motor Home. Great review.
I been debating about getting an electric bike or scooter for my son. your video is super informative. He doesn't go far, its just KS has some crazy weather. Fall in the morning, summer in the afternoon and spring at night.
Love how smooth and fast it is!
I love the blue and black color scheme!
Waiting tor scooters with 12 inch tires to handle bumps better!
That would be cool! -Vosk
Scooters with removable batteries are the best especially here in New York game changer I got the GTR for the same reason
this looks very cool, its a must buy for family all of us
Nice scooter with a few exceptions. I just ordered a Varla Eagle One V2. It was a little less motor and price but lots of good features.
Right on!
The scooter is going to be a must have around my house.
was one of my options when i was shopping for my first dual motor scooter. came close and im aware it has recieved updated buttons and cockpit that being said mantis king gt won me over.

Another e-scooter to consider as I'm researching a first purchase. Thanks for the review!
Glad to help!
Seems like an awesome scooter with some really cool features! Thanks for sharing such a great review too! Can't wait to see more!
Thanks for watching!
I like the removable battery, sine wave controller, and tubeless tires
This looks like a great e-scooter and would be the best to travel to nearby places in my area.
These are pretty cool. My grandson has been begging us for one!!
Nice review! The design of this thing is amazing!
Thanks for the great review. Really appreciate your attention to detail and the comparisons between other scooters in the same class. Good job!
Glad it was helpful!
Cool scooter. They are getting better with each iteration.
I think so too!
Love the swap-able battery, quality, hydraulic brakes, rear foot rest and the speed! Feel the price is just a lil too expensive though believe it should be below 2k
Thanks for sharing
Wow would love to ride this beast around town. Great Scooter
Awesome looking scooter. Been interested in this one for some time. Love the removable battery!!!
Great Review! Looks awesome. My college age son would love this for campus!
rk9 good review looking good👍
RK9 now on ESG 🎉
Yes he is! We are thrilled. -Vosk
That would be a sweet upgrade from the emove I have now! I've mostly been a pretty big fan of Ninebot because of the affordability and parts availability, but love to support US based brands.
Totally agree!
Love the RS5+. A great premium electric scooter.
KuKirin G3 Pro is exactly the same but orange accents. I'm wondering who is the manufacturer
We have not tested that brand yet!
Looks great. I have an Emove Cruiser S, It was more in my price range. Plus it is smaller and lighter, for easier portability. If I upgrade, I will keep this mind.
Thanks for sharing
You guys are awesome, giving away a premium scooter to a fan.....very cool
I just wish I could try to win also but my phone never lets me
Another one to consider for a first hobby scooter. So many options.
Yes it’s a great option for sure! -Vosk

Helpful info, thanks for taking the time to do this review!
Glad it was helpful!

Im really looking forward to buying this because of the removable battery!
Awesome! If I could I would absolutely purchase this over the others in its class.
Glad you like it!
Attractive looking scooter. I like the removable battery and easy to maneuver around and operate
Great feature!
Thanks for sharing the details of this scooter with this review! Looks like has all the bells and whisles! Removable battery is key!

Definitely!
Nice review and pretty nice looking scooter!
Thanks!
Solid review, as always. The swappable battery is definitely a nice touch
It really is!
The removable battery is cool as hell. The one problem I see is that combination dial is going to get jammed with water and debris from your sneakers.
Yes it is very cool to say the least. -Vosk
Thanks for the response and heads up on the combo lock...it does have a rubber cover that comes with the scooter that takes care of this issue.
Oh man, this scooter seems like a bang for the buck! The steering damper will make it so safe aswell!
