I have a question for the hiboy S2 Pro. Juat got mine and tried it out.. The ride is awesome as long as I'm on smooth black top or a sidewalk but the slightest rough surface it rattles my eyes. Is there any way to make the ride better other than having air filled tires that I can do??
I have the OX super. It’s a really REALLY nice riding scooter. Extremely smooth and comfortable. The fastest I’ve gotten it up to is 29. I can’t imagine it with the speed of the OXO. 40 MPH on NYC streets seems like a death wish.
The Oxo is basically the Ox, just with the dual motors. I have an Oxo and it reaches 40mph easily, but it’s super creaky and cheap feeling. The throttle sticks constantly which is super dangerous.
So basically it needs a headlight in the correct position, high up, and the speed control fixed, or at least user adjustable so experienced riders can better regulate their speed above jogging pace, and somthing better than cheap plastic on the deck, then it would be a winner?
Great review! The OXO is a beauty and hopefully my next escooter. Surprised to learn about the lack of grip on the deck - a fairly basic omission for such a premium scooter. A layer of embedded silicon like the Unagi would add both safety and class.
Totally agree with you. Luckily an easy fix. And actually after a couple days you still see the Inokim logo raised up through the grip tape which doesn't look bad at all.
What the test doesn't take into account is that nobody's feet are clinically clean when it's wet outside. You will have mud and sand sticking to the soles of your shoes, which is quite enough to give you plenty of grip when riding the scooter in wet conditions. I've never felt the need to add grip tape to my Ox even when riding in rain, because there's always some sand stuck between my shoes and the deck. The all plastic deck is also very easy to clean.
We have just purchased an OXO, current model, seems factory as tried to fit an anternative brake caliper to the rear, using multiple spacers between the bracket and caliper to keep it from touching rear motor. Problem the rear brakes are eating out by only half the pads touching half the disc. TBH im a bit pissed that this Inokim is supposed to be a premium product when this type of fitment is extremely poorly thought and amateur. Be aware if you buy an inokim that the specs and parts are actually what you expect. Oh and the nut on the rear axle / motor mount was loose ex factory. This is poor quality control. We have an oxo & a kaabo mantis. Oxo awesome handling, mantis beats it on components and throttle control. OXO is too touchy on instant take off. Ride everything before
I'm planning on buying one now. The law is fucking stupid and Idk how much police would truly give a shit if you are not going stupid fast. It's 'illegal' yet there is a buisness operating 20+ scooters where I live.
While those are very different scooters -- they are close in price. One really big thing to consider is the portability and power. Did you see our review on the Wolf? electric-scooter.guide/reviews/kaabo-wolf-warrior-11-review/
Bit pricey tho. I'm seriously contemplating locally picking up a Mantis Pro SE by Voro Motors for $1900. They supposedly addressed it's stem failure. I have higher confidence in these designs that fold at the stem like a ninebot Max vs the folding mechanism on the zero 9.

Great review! I´ve only owned one e-scooter so far and it´s the Inokim OxO. In my experience it´s also the best scooter out there right now ;) However it´s good to get an overview of where it stands next to it´s competitors. You´ve brought out all the quirks and features of this beastly machine :D Strange though that the top speed for the OxO was noted down as less than 37mph. The top speed is actually 40mph or 65km/h. That´s also the max speed that you can set it to in the hidden settings options. It might not be the quickest to top speed, but 65mh/h is definitely achievable. In good conditions I´ve reached 68km/h (43mph) on mine and I´m no skinny guy at about 100kg (220lbs). Thanks for an in-depth review!
@@advaitdolas9304 Strange results you have there. Are you sure that you have yours running in 2 wheel drive instead of the 1 wheel? Because I could swear I can get about 45kmh on mine in 1 wheel drive. And that´s also around the top speed of the Inokim Ox (1wd) which gets around 45kmh max. With the OxO in 2wd it should not have any issues getting above 50kmh... even with a strong headwind. Maybe it´s worth to take it into the shop for inspection, because a 50kmh max OxO is underperforming compared to their factory specs. I hope you get your OxO into the proper beast mode that it should be delivering! :)
Amazing content, thank you. I just upgraded my scooter from an Inokim Ox Super to an Oxo, it is a beast! Could you please advise me how it will be the best way to lock it when I leave it on a bike parking spot? With the Ox Super I used an Abus Bordo 6000 linked to the triangular base between the deck and the stem. The Oxo has that area covered. Thank you! Best.
I have a suggestion and i beg u to make it a serious staple criteria and list it as the first 2 on the list. WARRANTY! As number 1 pleez. State the length of the manufacturer warranty and what it covers AND if an extended warranty / protection plan is offered. With the way the industry is goin these scooters being recognized as a very useful/practical means of commuting to work and for recreation. These things r the future my brother and they r gettin better very fast and that means prices go up for better quality(which is not bad). Its not bad to pay more for better build quality but the potential customers really value a company which backs a product that is costing them a few hundred if not a few grand. We need peace of mind. We fear spending our hard earned money on something and then having a defective part give out only after a few months use. :( then we find out that it is either past its disappointing sub 1 yr warranty and or it is very hard to find and buy a replacement part due to a non existent or poor replacement product support system/inventory by the manufacturer. Number 2 priority would be listing a safety lighting criteria. With so many scoots n e bikes on the streets across the US and many accidents due to poor visibility in day n night we should put that at the top of importance. Many people n law enforcement use these crash stats to help abolish and or make riding these things harder by putting laws n regs in place. Criteria should test if the scoot has lighting from front, rear, and both sides of deck aswell as rear brake light and frnt n rear turn signals. Maybe make a criteria called safety which includes what i just mentioned as well as the braking system and a horn.
Good review. I have the OX Hero. It can go up to 51kmh and 23-25km range (with speed 45-50 in really cold weather 3-10C, 65kg, hopefully atleast 35-40 when it's warmer ). This is why it's interesting to see the Oxo is doing just 8kmh more top speed. Is the range of the Oxo tested with near constant top speed? I know your other OX review is of the Hero and you managed to get around 35km range in the same conditions as the Oxo here?
Yes the top speed is not dramatically different, but to be honest, I personally don't ride scooters much above 60 kmh. Regarding range, we always test scooters in the highest performance mode. However, we use a consistent test loop with has long straightaways, 5-6 stops, as well as a 4% grade for about 1/3 of the the loop so that it closely resembles semi-urban commuting. The OX was tested on the same exact loop by a rider the same exact weight.
@@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide Thanks for the info. Very much appreciated. It could be a good idea to do a video comparing range degradation of E-Scooters in winter compared to summer. I think this is quite important for the all-year riders, which are becoming increasingly more.
I looked up the numbers, 0-25 in 6.8. My Wolf King GT Pro can do 0-50 in 4.8. I think the OXO would be a ton of fun to ride. I have my WK in a much lower mode so it's probably close to your 6.8 and it feels quick to me. In max mode though I find it pretty terrifying. And the top speed of 38 is still plenty fast for normal people. Have you ridden it much? What's your opinion on the throttle thing people usually bring up? I'm really looking for a 2nd scooter and this one looks almost perfect but the stories of the throttle sticking and jumping have me a little concerned.
You talk about reliability but how can you say the OXO is reliable unless you have tested this scooter over a decent time period? I’ve had an OXO for 19 months and had nothing but issues. This folding mechanism you talk about is very weak and is under engineered for this scooter. I have had many many failures in the folding mechanism. I have also had the stem crack due to the fact that Inokim decided to grind down the weld on the stem. The plastic deck is prone to cracking. The Zoom brakes are a nightmare to maintain and I my opinion are another weak point of this scooter. A scooter of this quality should be fitted with a premium brake system like a Magura MT5e. Maybe look out there in the real world before stating this scooter is reliable.
@@ElectricScooterJuice totally different forces are being applied to the OXO. I think this is half the issue, the OX stem isn’t strong enough for the torque of the OXO.
@@astronaft2 hey man, I’m on my second OXO and it has been very good. They have addressed all the issues I had with the original model. The upgrades to the folding mechanism seems to be pretty good now. I’ve done 6000 km/s on the newer version with very little issues.
Hey oxo is very good quality just 2 concern I have is controller issues and damage to the tape when clipping into carry mode apart from that its badass!!!!!
Terrific review...loved the friction test with the weight and shoe :)...does it have cruise control? beautiful exotic looking scooter and the foldup competition test was awesome lol
FYI: I had annoyances with their web site; they claimed chat was 24H ; nobody responded; entry form for e-mail required some fiddling to accept phone #, the displayed format was not what was expected; if there was an FAQ page, they were very clever in hiding it; my inquiry might of interest to you for expanding your review's attributes (Q: where is your matrix (or spreadsheet) of attributes?) Q: what is payload? max road angle? how many kilowatt-hours off home outlet to full charge? warranty? where to get theft insurance? lo-jack available? driver's license required? recommended safety gear? maximum pothole it can handle?
@@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide I don't own one but I do own 2 Nanrobot D6+'s, Nanrobot RS11 and the Wolf King. They are all on par with each other in terms of quality. Most of them are the same and the majority of these scooters are made in one of four factories so no surprise. The Rion stuff is custom on every level from what I have found and I have yet to see a scooter that comes close on that level. I don't think I could spend $7k but the Rion stuff looks amazing. I am sure the scooter you tested is great but I have not seen the Rion's equal so I hope they do send you one to test. Cheers!
there are so many scooters within this price and performance. why are we still talking about the ox when videos can be made on so many other interesting scooters.
I was soooo close to buying this but Apollo Phantom got my money. Oxo lost on price mostly and plastic deck partly (I know it can be fixed with grip tape but that's not great). Although I really wish the Phantom had cable management as good as Oxo. Phantom cable management is...not good. I am surprised ESG never seems to consider cable management (well, it is mentioned but sorta breezed past).
Inokim scooters definitely get the little details right. We tend to touch on cable management more in our deep dives during the live show. Thanks for letting us know that's something you'd like to see us pay more attention to! -Paul
It's too bad about the lackluster acceleration and speed though. I do ride with traffic so good acceleration is a must to stay out of sticky situations. Where I live drivers in cars are not very kind to PEV riders.
does the OXO also have that weird braking issue when you go over hard bumps when coasting? my OX Hero tends to suddenly brake when i go over rough roads...when i'm off the throttle.
So I just got this scooter and I would advise against buying it. It is FAST, but the build quality is so horrendously bad. The deck is made of cheap plastic and the whole unit creaks with every move. The brakes are noisy and squeal so loud. The suspension is clunky and the tires are way too slick to be on a scooter of this speed. It’s a fun ride, but far from what it should be for the price. My commuter Segway which cost well under $800 blows this scooter away in terms of quality and build. As an update, mine is a 2023. Maybe they dropped the ball on these new model years.
Hi is there anyone who can help me plz. My back hydraulic break bites quite low which means u can almost pull the break handle into the handle bar. It still breaks effectivly but I m just wondering is this normal? I ve got 550km in it break pad neverr been changed but according to the service man that is nornal, any idea?
I agree. I am happy that I have one, and I enjoy it, but it’s NOT worth the price they are asking, even when it’s on sale. It’s so creaky and cheap feeling. The suspension is so clunky and the scooter sounds like breaking plastic with every move. Also, the throttle sticks constantly. My Segway that is a fraction of the price has a drastically better build quality than this. Great video tho!
Way too expensive. I would never pay more than $2000 for a scooter. For that price, it should have been water proof and had an electric horn. The nanrobot D6+ is a lot cheaper and basically the same base model.
The Apollo 60v is very veryyyyy similar to the Zero 10x 60v as they are probably made by the same ODM for the relevant brands. Very very similar. Zero more prominent in Europe and Apollo more prominent in the US. Hopr that helps.
No it is not.. riding with ox or oxo is a huge different. I have a oxo and its a beast. 💥 first you afraid to use power it has. I am not lying but by the gps it did 78kmh... what a beast.. ride safe.. 😆
That's be great, of course I'm still checking for daily updates and downloading both data sheets of test data and the broad database so I can view tested data with price points etc. Still hoping for that 35/35 mph/miles at around 1500+1700... One day. Keep up the good work!!
For range, nothing, but nothing beats Voro motors' EMOVE cruiser, with 50.3 miles of ESG certified real-world range. The OXO has the second highest range of any scooter we have tested with 36.6 miles of real-world range. If that's enough range for you, then the OXO is a great choice, because it's going to have a smoother ride and better braking in an emergency. At 8.6ft stopping distance from 15 to 0 mph, the OXO has the best brakes of any scooter we have ever tested. So for comfort + good range go OXO, for flat out amazing range (and a large comfy deck) go EMOVE cruiser. -Paul
WARNING: This scooter has it's downsides, though I would say it's pretty amazing. The brakes will probably rub on the disk as soon as you get on and will continue to do so until you align it. (unfortunately there's no way to completely have it not rub off and on, but would rather have it rub while not on it.) The throttle needs to be kicked off first before it'll go, so going up hill if steep can be really, really challenging as you can't kick off going straight up a steep hill. The scooter is mildly water resistance. There's a vent right near the front tire that water can go in straight to the electronics board. The brake lines may be leaking. (mine was leaking upon receiving it and still don't know how to fix it without a bike shop doing the repair.) The acceleration is very jerky, I have let friends try it and fall off immediately from it accelerating too fast. (personally I learned to get used to it and love it because I can just immediately go.) The tubes may become deflated because they can get pinched in the wheels. They don't offer tires that are solid without tubes (mind blowing because they would be perfect for something this powerful.) the back guard will not last. For anybody. It comes off very easily and will come off when you go over a strong bump. Apart from all that, it's an amazing scooter though.
Is there like a specific place customers can go to have these issues fixed? Is a regular bike store sufficient? And do you need a license for this bike? I would like to gift this to my 15 yr old niece and my 8 yr old nephew and myself of course
To bad, I'll have to pass.... in Florida it could be perfectly clear when you leave the house. 10 minutes later your caught in a monsoon downpour. Why scooters are as waterproof as motorcycles is beyond me. No excuse for that..PERIOD. Nothing like pouring money down the drain because of rain. Epic fail for something made in the year 2021
Top speed info is plain false. My friends and other reviewers showed/proved it can go up to 65 km with 90 kg person. Also your range info must be at all full speed driving? İ saw 80 km range in eco modes with heavy weights?
Happy to send you the data. Our top speed runs are done on flat ground, measured via Racelogic Vbox Sport, and then we take the median value of three top speed runs. (for high speed scooters we do a two direction average to account for headwinds and tailwinds). All of our range tests are done on the same course, with the scooter in it's top speed mode, but average speeds tend to be around 17 mph during the test. At 36.6 miles, the OXO has the second longest range of any scooter we have ever tested. It's one of very few scooters we've ever tested which beats the range specified by the reseller (see link below), in this case the claimed range was 36 miles. -Paul geni.us/6Y1E?track=web
Nice. The only think why I would not buy it is zero theft protection. No key, no nfc, no PIN unlocking.... So some asshole can simply jump on it, press the button, throttle and ride away in a few seconds while I am looking the other way.
Ok, you can protect it with a immobilizer, you can lock the brakediscs or lock it all if you want to go shopping. There are many ways to protect your scooter.
Want to know if the OXO is Big Dawg Approved? Check out the written review on our website: bit.ly/OXOWritten

Is the range of the Oxo tested with near constant top speed? I know your other OX review is of the Hero and you managed to get around 35km range in the same conditions as the Oxo here?
Yes the top speed is not dramatically different, but to be honest, I personally don't ride scooters much above 60 kmh. Regarding range, we always test scooters in the highest performance mode. However, we use a consistent test loop with has long straightaways, 5-6 stops, as well as a 4% grade for about 1/3 of the the loop so that it closely resembles semi-urban commuting. The OX was tested on the same exact loop by a rider the same exact weight.
@@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide Thanks for the info. Very much appreciated. It could be a good idea to do a video comparing range degradation of E-Scooters in winter compared to summer. I think this is quite important for the all-year riders, which are becoming increasingly more.
3-10c is very cold?...i have ridden a scooter in - 24c
@@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide how does the Oxo compare to the OX regarding acceleration?
Great review! I really like the OXO. Inokim makes great quality scooters. I didn't realize you had a twin ;)
Hahaha -- are you referring to the b-roll twin?
@@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide Identical twin :)
The acceleration on this scooter is so crazy I have to be very focused so it doesn’t run away with me. I can’t imagine riding something faster OMG
Enjoy your ride! -Vosk
I looked up the numbers, 0-25 in 6.8. My Wolf King GT Pro can do 0-50 in 4.8. I think the OXO would be a ton of fun to ride. I have my WK in a much lower mode so it's probably close to your 6.8 and it feels quick to me. In max mode though I find it pretty terrifying. And the top speed of 38 is still plenty fast for normal people.
Have you ridden it much? What's your opinion on the throttle thing people usually bring up? I'm really looking for a 2nd scooter and this one looks almost perfect but the stories of the throttle sticking and jumping have me a little concerned.
Well it's got my vote if big dog approves.
Spoiler: it is big dawg approved! electric-scooter.guide/reviews/inokim-oxo-review/
Whats better, This OXO or the apollo phantom v2?
Apollo Phantom for the win! -Vosk
You talk about reliability but how can you say the OXO is reliable unless you have tested this scooter over a decent time period? I’ve had an OXO for 19 months and had nothing but issues. This folding mechanism you talk about is very weak and is under engineered for this scooter. I have had many many failures in the folding mechanism. I have also had the stem crack due to the fact that Inokim decided to grind down the weld on the stem. The plastic deck is prone to cracking. The Zoom brakes are a nightmare to maintain and I my opinion are another weak point of this scooter. A scooter of this quality should be fitted with a premium brake system like a Magura MT5e.
Maybe look out there in the real world before stating this scooter is reliable.
We've had our OX in fairly heavy ride-rotation for almost a year and have had no problems with it.
@@ElectricScooterJuice totally different forces are being applied to the OXO. I think this is half the issue, the OX stem isn’t strong enough for the torque of the OXO.
Thanks man, I nearly bought this. Will look for appolo probably.
@@astronaft2 hey man, I’m on my second OXO and it has been very good. They have addressed all the issues I had with the original model. The upgrades to the folding mechanism seems to be pretty good now. I’ve done 6000 km/s on the newer version with very little issues.
Hey oxo is very good quality just 2 concern I have is controller issues and damage to the tape when clipping into carry mode apart from that its badass!!!!!
Controller issues?
Terrific review...loved the friction test with the weight and shoe :)...does it have cruise control? beautiful exotic looking scooter and the foldup competition test was awesome lol
Thanks a lot Timothy. And yes, it does have cruise control, but I'd be careful about using it at speeds above ~20 mph.
@@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide nice...I agree...15-20 mph on cruise is lovely :)
FYI: I had annoyances with their web site; they claimed chat was 24H ; nobody responded; entry form for e-mail required some fiddling to accept phone #, the displayed format was not what was expected; if there was an FAQ page, they were very clever in hiding it;
my inquiry might of interest to you for expanding your review's attributes (Q: where is your matrix (or spreadsheet) of attributes?)
Q: what is payload? max road angle? how many kilowatt-hours off home outlet to full charge? warranty? where to get theft insurance? lo-jack available? driver's license required? recommended safety gear? maximum pothole it can handle?
Hi Howard -- which website did you have a bad experience with?
That’s Berkeley CA! Nice!
I can’t see that this scooter is as high quality as the Rion stuff
We are waiting on Rion to get us a model for review. Which model do you have.... And what are your thoughts on it?
@@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide I don't own one but I do own 2 Nanrobot D6+'s, Nanrobot RS11 and the Wolf King. They are all on par with each other in terms of quality. Most of them are the same and the majority of these scooters are made in one of four factories so no surprise. The Rion stuff is custom on every level from what I have found and I have yet to see a scooter that comes close on that level. I don't think I could spend $7k but the Rion stuff looks amazing. I am sure the scooter you tested is great but I have not seen the Rion's equal so I hope they do send you one to test. Cheers!
Ya when you start getting to used CAR prices, I'm out, regardless of quality.
Good job on this review
Glad you enjoyed it! -Vosk

Great review thank you
Thanks for the kind words

I was soooo close to buying this but Apollo Phantom got my money. Oxo lost on price mostly and plastic deck partly (I know it can be fixed with grip tape but that's not great). Although I really wish the Phantom had cable management as good as Oxo. Phantom cable management is...not good. I am surprised ESG never seems to consider cable management (well, it is mentioned but sorta breezed past).
Inokim scooters definitely get the little details right. We tend to touch on cable management more in our deep dives during the live show. Thanks for letting us know that's something you'd like to see us pay more attention to! -Paul
On the brake lever it is written "zoom", not inokim. Why it's like that. I have seen some scooter have written inokim itself. Is this a copy?
They are made by zoom! -Vosk
It's too bad about the lackluster acceleration and speed though. I do ride with traffic so good acceleration is a must to stay out of sticky situations. Where I live drivers in cars are not very kind to PEV riders.
Excellent video, did you know you can buy an unlocked throttle to have a better speed at the beginning?
I haven't heard this. Do you have a part number or a source? I'd be curious to test one.
does the OXO also have that weird braking issue when you go over hard bumps when coasting? my OX Hero tends to suddenly brake when i go over rough roads...when i'm off the throttle.
So I just got this scooter and I would advise against buying it. It is FAST, but the build quality is so horrendously bad. The deck is made of cheap plastic and the whole unit creaks with every move. The brakes are noisy and squeal so loud. The suspension is clunky and the tires are way too slick to be on a scooter of this speed. It’s a fun ride, but far from what it should be for the price. My commuter Segway which cost well under $800 blows this scooter away in terms of quality and build. As an update, mine is a 2023. Maybe they dropped the ball on these new model years.
Thanks for your feedback! Appreciated. -Vosk
Does this scooter have a sort of speed cruise-control downhills?
Please make video inokim ox vs oxo,
Thats one scooter i would love to try!
It is my new go-to
Hi is there anyone who can help me plz. My back hydraulic break bites quite low which means u can almost pull the break handle into the handle bar. It still breaks effectivly but I m just wondering is this normal? I ve got 550km in it break pad neverr been changed but according to the service man that is nornal, any idea?
I made the mistake of buying two of these when they first come out trust me save ur money 😂😂😂
Didn’t like it at all? -Vosk
I agree. I am happy that I have one, and I enjoy it, but it’s NOT worth the price they are asking, even when it’s on sale. It’s so creaky and cheap feeling. The suspension is so clunky and the scooter sounds like breaking plastic with every move. Also, the throttle sticks constantly. My Segway that is a fraction of the price has a drastically better build quality than this. Great video tho!
how do you feel about the apollo ghost vs the oxo vs the wolf warrior?
So oxo is the most user freidly
Agreed. It's one of the friendliest fast scooters for sure! -Paul
Is there a app for your phone to connect your scooter
Way too expensive. I would never pay more than $2000 for a scooter. For that price, it should have been water proof and had an electric horn. The nanrobot D6+ is a lot cheaper and basically the same base model.
No scooter is waterproof...some are water resistant
For that much they couldn’t have installed a proper horn? That is the kind of heel you put on a kids bike.
Thanks for your feedback!
-Vosk
Can you plz review the Joyor A3/A5???
I like they just leave out the Zero 10X or the Zero 11X..lol
The Apollo 60v is very veryyyyy similar to the Zero 10x 60v as they are probably made by the same ODM for the relevant brands. Very very similar. Zero more prominent in Europe and Apollo more prominent in the US.
Hopr that helps.
Hi I got a pair of alpinestar boots there,let me guess...i got ripped?
When only one engine is running, does it have the same torque and final speed similar to an Inokim OX hero/super ?
No it is not.. riding with ox or oxo is a huge different. I have a oxo and its a beast. 💥 first you afraid to use power it has. I am not lying but by the gps it did 78kmh... what a beast.. ride safe.. 😆
We LOVE our Inokim Ox! So smooth and stable and beautiful ❤️
Just bought Apollo Ghost:) Yup
Let us know how it goes!
I have the same one its so good
We love ours! How long have you had it?
When will ESG be posting the review for the Ghost?
I think that's going to be Feb 2nd or 3rd.
Hi chuck
My lights have gone on my inokim ok the dash light still lights up but no brake or head lights any thoughts?
Contact your dealer for assistance!
Can you please compare this with the all new kaboo mantis king gt?
We will take a look thank you! -Vosk
Wondering does the ESG site have a Category section? Be great to sort the database or similar with this "categories" mentioned in reviews
I hadn't thought of that. I'll pass that along to Justin who is in charge of the web database. Thank you! -Paul
That's be great, of course I'm still checking for daily updates and downloading both data sheets of test data and the broad database so I can view tested data with price points etc.
Still hoping for that 35/35 mph/miles at around 1500+1700... One day.
Keep up the good work!!
where can I buy one, in europe??
I think you made a mistake with the range :) they claim 110 km wich is 68 mi
What e-scooter would you recommend for food deliveries and longish shifts like 8-12 hours?
For range, nothing, but nothing beats Voro motors' EMOVE cruiser, with 50.3 miles of ESG certified real-world range. The OXO has the second highest range of any scooter we have tested with 36.6 miles of real-world range. If that's enough range for you, then the OXO is a great choice, because it's going to have a smoother ride and better braking in an emergency. At 8.6ft stopping distance from 15 to 0 mph, the OXO has the best brakes of any scooter we have ever tested. So for comfort + good range go OXO, for flat out amazing range (and a large comfy deck) go EMOVE cruiser. -Paul
@@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide wow thanks for the in depth reply I appreciate it a lot.
When are you going to review the Solar scooters the uk company.
How are the Solar Scooters different than others we've reviewed?
@@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide take a look then you will see. there fantastic scooters
@@Mypitbull82 ...They have a tik tok channel
Amazing scooter!
Use lucid grip for the deck, not some garbage grip tape.
Thumbs up
Thanks Ash!
WARNING: This scooter has it's downsides, though I would say it's pretty amazing. The brakes will probably rub on the disk as soon as you get on and will continue to do so until you align it. (unfortunately there's no way to completely have it not rub off and on, but would rather have it rub while not on it.)
The throttle needs to be kicked off first before it'll go, so going up hill if steep can be really, really challenging as you can't kick off going straight up a steep hill.
The scooter is mildly water resistance. There's a vent right near the front tire that water can go in straight to the electronics board.
The brake lines may be leaking. (mine was leaking upon receiving it and still don't know how to fix it without a bike shop doing the repair.)
The acceleration is very jerky, I have let friends try it and fall off immediately from it accelerating too fast. (personally I learned to get used to it and love it because I can just immediately go.)
The tubes may become deflated because they can get pinched in the wheels. They don't offer tires that are solid without tubes (mind blowing because they would be perfect for something this powerful.)
the back guard will not last. For anybody. It comes off very easily and will come off when you go over a strong bump.
Apart from all that, it's an amazing scooter though.
Insightful! Thanks for sharing
Is there like a specific place customers can go to have these issues fixed? Is a regular bike store sufficient? And do you need a license for this bike? I would like to gift this to my 15 yr old niece and my 8 yr old nephew and myself of course
Can you ride with the oxo in the rain?
We would not recommend it! -Vosk
To bad, I'll have to pass.... in Florida it could be perfectly clear when you leave the house. 10 minutes later your caught in a monsoon downpour. Why scooters are as waterproof as motorcycles is beyond me. No excuse for that..PERIOD. Nothing like pouring money down the drain because of rain. Epic fail for something made in the year 2021
You might need the emove cruiser that is moor of a Florida scooter
Why not the 🐺👑for a couple hundred more with doubled the speed
Depends on whether you want to go smooth and fast or just plain fast. Chuck would choose OXO and I would choose Wolf King -Paul
Where can I get grip tape for the deck?
Amazon should have some options!
@@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide Thanks, I’ll check it out!
Inokim is not water proof, so the slipery deck has never been problem for me. Better not to use in wet conditions.
What's the battery life?
Depends on the riders weight and riding conditions! -Vosk
I want to monster. Like hunter quad. Made in South korea.
Sounds awesome -- do you have the link?
Is this an upgraded Ox?
I would say that oxo has twise the power of ox. 1x1000w vs 2x1000w. Always red button on attack mode. 😆
Best scooter.
1700 scooter with no ip rating!?
This is a older scooter for sure!
Top speed info is plain false. My friends and other reviewers showed/proved it can go up to 65 km with 90 kg person. Also your range info must be at all full speed driving? İ saw 80 km range in eco modes with heavy weights?
Happy to send you the data. Our top speed runs are done on flat ground, measured via Racelogic Vbox Sport, and then we take the median value of three top speed runs. (for high speed scooters we do a two direction average to account for headwinds and tailwinds).
All of our range tests are done on the same course, with the scooter in it's top speed mode, but average speeds tend to be around 17 mph during the test. At 36.6 miles, the OXO has the second longest range of any scooter we have ever tested. It's one of very few scooters we've ever tested which beats the range specified by the reseller (see link below), in this case the claimed range was 36 miles. -Paul

@@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide thanks for the clarification.
Nice. The only think why I would not buy it is zero theft protection. No key, no nfc, no PIN unlocking.... So some asshole can simply jump on it, press the button, throttle and ride away in a few seconds while I am looking the other way.
Ok, you can protect it with a immobilizer, you can lock the brakediscs or lock it all if you want to go shopping. There are many ways to protect your scooter.
looks like mine zero10x
not having the price in your category review is ridiculous.
It seems you passed stop signs several times
