    I feel like once you get past $2000, it is more worth your money to purchase an electric moped or motorcycle. You can get a really nice electric motorcycle that is highway capable and with good range for $5-$6k.

      Or you can get a used gas motorcycle for $3k-7k that can travel highway speeds up to 75-120mph and get long, 90+ miles of range per tank (which you fill for just $10 in 5 minutes)

    Those not familiar should be informed: solid tires, though requiring less maintenance than pneumatic, are slippery on painted surfaces (like bike lanes) slicker than snot on a wet surface, and have zero traction on wet painted surfaces. Potentially extremely dangerous. With over 7,000 scooter miles and a collection that spans all 4 classes, I can say the ONLY accidents I've ever had were unprovoked wipeouts where the solid rear tire (on a small commuter scooter) just slid out from under me on wet surfaces. Only buy these for desert conditions, or do not ever use during or after rain. Even pneumatics are sketchy on wet surfaces, but solid takes danger to a whole other level. They say a dull knife is far more dangerous than a sharp one, and this is a case of that. The higher performing models with better disc brakes, pneumatic tires, good suspension are inherently safer because they do everything better, including keeping you safe. Yes, split rims facilitate tire repairs, and adding Armor-Dilloz, plus proper inflation, does prevent most flats. There is no free lunch, and lower maintenance of solid tires comes with a hidden cost. Buyer beware.

      This only applies to maintaining top speeds. Don't do MotoGP tilts on wet surfaces (or rather, don't do them at all), drive responsibly and be at your work/school on time _EVERY_ time, that is the key. Reliability is everything, sacrificing everything else especially "recreational" speeds and (if no suspension) comforts. It only takes getting late and tired of carrying your ride all the way to the destination once, to forever drop even the slightiest thought at inflatables. Seriously - fck em.

    Truth be told I love my Vsett 10+, it’s a scooter that makes riding a breeze. Any dual motor scooter makes hills seem like a joke. I think you also missed an important bit of information on the voltage and amp hour. 36v and 48v are great for commuters. 52v is the sweet spot for light mid-powered scooter. 60v can give you a rush like no other and 72v and 84v are for those who loves high speed. 96v or bigger and your neck may never recover from the torque.

    I have a cheap Gotrax A5 scooter w/ seat, and 12" wheels. I HATE Gotrax Customer Service, but it was easy to change the front inner tube (w/ slanted air valve), like a bicycle, using a small, plastic tire lever! In fact, I didn't even have a flat - just did it so I could write an innertube review! Before or after a flat, I may even put in some Slime liquid, to prevent / seal a flat. I own an air compressor, but really, they make tiny, inexpensive battery powered air pumps. If your trips are within walking distance, I feel scooters w/ inner tubes are a reasonable choice. I'm concerned smaller wheels are affected by surface imperfections, and I always wear a helmet and gloves on my scooter, that tops out at 16mph. I try to ride only sidewalks and bike paths and have a rear LED always flashing.

      @Anto Holly It really depends on location. Our downtown area has a bunch of scooter rentals and I've seen people riding those get ticketed for doing stupid crap. If you're riding "normally" then you're probably fine for the most parts, but there are strange laws in different areas that you have to look out for. Like here, scooters cannot use pedestrian crossing lanes to cross lights, they have to behave like vehicles and use turn lights for example. So if a cop sees you crossing the road using pedestrian crossing, they can ticket you for that.
      Then there are other things such as 50mph scooters, wearing full motorcycle gear can't be using bicycle lanes, but people still do it and they get pulled over.

    The complaint about hills with budget scooters is valid, but if you kick them forward helping the motor out, then you can climb steep hills essentially as easily as a bicycle.
    My main complaint about budget scooters is that they are as difficult to maintain as more expensive ones (as you mention). The power and range are often lacking, but portability is a huge plus that makes them enticing regardless.

    • @Daniel_Clem
      @Daniel_Clem 2 года назад

      Some budget scooter can go pretty far these days (ninebot max can do 45km, NIU KQi2 pro can do 26km and NIU KQi3 pro can do about 35km) if you don't mind that they aren't ''sport'' scooters. They both also go around 25-30km/h which is actually a little too fast for city use if you're going to use the bike lane (in Canada at least you can't go in the middle of the street with scooters you have to ride with bike and or skateboards and those lanes are usually 20km/h maximum).

      Agreed. My first scooter was a “hurdle motorgear “. Simple 350 watt. Easy to carry at 45 pounds and fits into tight spaces when folded. Great commuter scooter. Horrible on hills (10-11mph depending on the grade). Still 3x walking speed. I was told I would get bored and want more speed, more power and more features. They were so right.

    I finally just upgraded and ordered a Vsett 10+. I can't wait to try it when it gets here. I wanted something with more power as there are some hills in my neighborhood and potholes as well. The price is a little high but it looks pretty nice. The biggest thing I like is the support for it. Looks like there's a lot of parts and informational videos. The tire changes look easy as well.

    I didn't have the budget for a $1k scooter a while back, but I ended up finding a used Lunar Scooter LS1200 for $280 in a poorly state about 3 years ago.
    Back then, I simply needed something for short trips while I was rebuilding my $550 towyard-recovered 2.4L '01 Xterra. I still have the X and it's my winter wheels/ long range travel, but I rarely need to drive it in town anymore.
    I've upgraded the batteries, the handlebars, the wheel sprocket and the chain, and I can get to 30mph and climb hills with ease (I'm 6'1" and 165lbs). It's an absolute beast on gravel bike paths, and I daily it to work as well (11.6 mile round trip). I can even set a 24 pack of Mountain Dew on the deck and still go full-speed uphill like it was nothing.
    In a few more months I will be upgrading the entire platform to 48v and swapping the existing 36v components to a Razor E300 frame I got for $15 from a thrift store.
    I also have an e-bike project in the works as well; that one I'm planning to make into a 72V 2000+W sleeper while trying to keep the stock 36V 350W unassuming look. That will be my first ever brushless hub motor build.
    The donor is also a GY6 clone (Sunbird) I got for $200, so it's going to look like an electric version of a 50cc GY6, but have a pedal drive so it's considered an e-bike legally, and if I "stage" the controller I can make it 750W compliant for road use or unlimited for off road use.
    I just think it's funny that it's going to be faster as an electric drive than any of the bored-out 100-105cc GY6 motors I've ever built for gasoline. Best of all it's a hyperscooter's performance for the cost of your average dual-motor urban commuter once you itemize everything.
    It's more fun to tinker than buy something off the shelf anyway. I like going fast without it costing too much.

    I've got a few scooters now, 2 Ninebox max scooters, a 2020 Emove cruiser and now a zero 10x. The Ninebot max is a great beginner scooter and I see why its so popular. Just dont expect any insane speeds or acceleration with it lol. I've put just over 1,000 miles on the Ninebot and its held up solid, only issue was recently I needed to replace the folding mechanism but since its an insanely popular scooter, parts are available everywhere for it so thats nice.
    The emove cruiser has by far been my favorite so far. The speed is perfect, gives enough thrill and the acceleration is pretty decent. But the range is a huge plus. I have put over 2,000 miles on mine and the range still gets me 35 - 40 miles easy (I've never done more than this because by this point you get tired of standing lol) with still battery remaining. Plus the waterproof rating on it has come in handy many times. I really do recommend the emove cruiser its a sweet scooter!
    And now the zero 10x. The power is just insane! Insane how much of a difference going from single motor to dual motor makes. The acceleration is damn insane on it, and it also cruises up hills with no issues at all. But you can tell the battery does last as much as the cruiser does, getting me about 28 miles before going dead. Thats still really good and more than I need, plus you get more if you stick in single motor mode so I'd say battery does fine. But either way the fun you have with the speed on it makes up for the battery any day.

I think people's choice of scooter depends on their situation. The City isn't a commuter scooter that you can fit in your trunk or carry up stairs, and it weighs about 90 lb. It's not for everyone. But it works for me because I'm a heavier rider who lives in an area with hills and bad roads. It eats hills and potholes for breakfast. I ride mainly for recreation and there are a lot of bike trails nearby. Because of the wheel size it's pretty good for off roading as well. More people seem to be buying the City now, even as a first scooter, because it's very safe and comfortable to ride. It will be interesting to see if other manufacturers make a similar larger wheeled model in the future.

      Actually alongside Xiaomi scooters you can mod Ninebots as well for extra speed. (as Xiaomi theoretically own Segway now)

    Hi im an entry level scooter ruder and mine can go a bit above 30kmh and I love it it is the 2023 aovo pro in white and it is a neck breaker in my opinion I hear a lot of people in my area whispering about it saying its so nice so if you have a low budget and are a beginner get this scooter from 250 to 400€ and I'm only 12 and I love all scooter no matter the size

    I like your reviews. You have real life riding experiences and not just reading specs.
    For the Hiboy S2 Pro, the only con about this scooter is that the folding latch is flimpsy and can collapse while riding.
    What has been your experiences with NIU. The scooter range for EU is very limited. I don’t like any of the makes that are available. Maybe you can suggest some that is like the Hiboy s2 but with a sturdier built, stem and built. I’m looking for everything that the Hiboy S2 offers but a better quality one.

    • @TheApeWonder
      @TheApeWonder 2 года назад

      @@francoismurrell4604 I like it! It got more than enough speed, depending on your weight. Dual motors is great if you have lots of hills or the occasional climb. Got a sturdy and quality build which can easily be put in a trunk (due to the great folding system).
      The only negative I’d say is its weight. But more weight means more stability when riding and it’s manageable. It’s mostly if you’re lifting it onboard some commuter train or such I guess. Personally I don’t think I’ll buy a heavier scooter in the future, nor faster.
      So with these scooters things are quite relative - your weight which can possibly slow down speed (but dual motors helps a lot), scooter weight if lifting it often, it’s speed is more than enough for me (though I can maybe see going faster on a perfectly flat and long road but it’s also risky standing up in those speeds). Solid tires are great to ignore glass but on a non asphalt road, like cobble stones, is a nightmare riding. Have had no water issues going through puddles.
      Oh and I’m quite strong, doing workouts regularly, but scooter still feels too heavy/bulky if needing to carrying it.

    In France, we can't even legally ride a E-scooter that exceed 25 km/h (~15 mph), and the first category is the most common one. I own a Xiaomi Pro2 (~650$), and it's really great ! Plus the advertised range of this scooter (45 km / 28 miles) is actually true, I can even reach 50 km.
