The problem of paint peeling on aluminum alloys existed a few years ago, and I don't know if the latest products have improved. Other accessories are very cheap in China, so we will directly replace the accessories, or modify more advanced accessories. Electric cars are fine. The only downside is that charging is too slow. There are many free public toilets in China, there are free power supplies in the toilets, don't worry about running out of electricity, but it takes a lot of time to charge, and it can't be used for long-distance riding (over 300Km), so I sold NQI and bought a gasoline car motorcycle.
I will get my Niu NQI GTS standard range soon, sadly version 2022 have some kind of LCD display instead the one you have in your model, all that said me and my wife is quite happy, especially her because she had found memories when she commute to university with her scooter. Pozdro I dzięki za radę. Trzymaj się ciepło.
Thanks again, after your first review I treated all the rusting parts, and it helped. My rear arm still looks ok, a little paint came of but not too visible. Now after 10k km's my rear brakepad is almost worn. Will look at the callipers! I'm selling it now and going to buy the MQI GT EVO, coming NL at the end of April
At current fuel prices and the fast forward extinction of fossil fuels, riding my NQI scooter is a no brainer. I am only coming up to 7 months and 515 miles of use. The biggest problem we have is living in cities where a lot of people live in tenements. Charging is going to be the crux of owning anything electric. Prices of electricity is rocketing world wide and fast charging will work out at petrol prices very soon. Battery life is the next on the list. We need an exchange scheme, a battery on a scooter is half its price. On a car it’s the same. It’s not cost effective to buy another battery. It’s more proactive to buy another bike! The same for a car. It’s scrapped effectively once the battery is past its charge cycles. This isn’t good for the consumer or the planet.
Hello Prometeusz, thanks for your videos, i bought the 2022 model and after 5400km the Niu store told me that my brakes need replacing. I am shocked that the pads is so bad. Do you have any advice or can maybe share a link to the replacement pads that you bought please? For some reason the calipers are eating a groove into the back brake and i think its a factory issue but the Niu garage in Malaga said its not covered by the guarantee.
brake calipers are not the best i have more issues now with the front because last i did replace the pads and but the wheel didnt move freely.strange original pads the older ones has no issues at all.also about the paint on the swingarm is poor.i did paint it in glossy black and 2k clear coat much better now.
I would recommend to check your fluid level. In my case replacement pads were thicker than originally. There was not enough space in the reservoir to push them back. Cremoving some of the fluid helped to make it spin freely.
@@prometeusz.jasinski i always check the fluid lvl when it goes down i know the pads start to worn out.i always clean the pistons and grease the parts too. it was funny i thought the middle piston is broke because it didnt come out then push the rear brake lever haha.I try to balance it but i also see that the rim it self is not spinning straight anymore just like the rear hub motor.Bad roads here.bearings are ok.
@@leahlambert5737 damn that's what I'm in between lol. A niu or an nmax or pcx. Leaning more towards the pcx. I have full solar at the house which is why I considered the niu.
@@dotternetta How fair did you ride it in kilometers? Is it a niu? Where do you live and how often do you ride in snow/salt. If you see almost no corrosion, how do you know you started too late? I'm really curious, I'm considering buying a niu instead of a 2. car in the household
Hello Prometeusz Need you help here😊 I bought niu ngt like yours last year Everytging went well i driver 2000km last year without any problems but today it want start , both batteries are fully charged Do you have some tip maybe? Thanks in advance
Electric vehicles are a low-cost way to get around, but maybe not when you consider batteries. In addition, there is a serious shortage of cruising range. Obviously, gasoline vehicles are good enough. The battery technology of electric vehicles has been improved slightly, and the energy density is too low.
I have noticed that new alcohol gasoline is bad. When before was never ever problem with fuel, now it occur to everyone. Cause of that I bought electric scooter which range is more than enough my short daily driving.
How long do you think the bike will last? How often did you ride in snow/salt on the roads, could you estimate days/year? Do you think buying corrosion protection would be worth it? Could you sell your last bike for a bit or did you just trash it?
1st year for sure 5% of the time. Second less than 1% and this winter also not so much. If you see more salt, corrosion will possibly eat up your bike.
@@prometeusz.jasinski thanks a lot, i live in Denmark and i would say maybe 20% of the time (only some of the winter) salt is being used. Bike will probably last only 2 years then, and then a used car will be cheaper than the NIU sadly
@@prometeusz.jasinski i always wash it carefully then after apply wd40 on most critical parts.U can try that on ur front fork too mine was also rusty now less but i ll replace it anyway.
Ich habe einen älteren M1 Pro und einen ca 1 Jahr alten MQi Plus Sport. Beim M1 Pro verabschiedet sich Beschichtung mittlerweile an den Schwingen und beim MQi Sport platzt es leicht an den Übergängen ab, bis jetzt nichts wildes. Bin am überlegen, die Schwingen am M1 Pro lackieren zu lassen, aber selbst ohne Lackierung dürfte da nichts rosten oder?
War heute beim Lackierer. Der wird mir beide Schwingen für 100 Euro lackieren. Die Roller-Werkstatt nimmt für ab und anbau zusätzlich 50 Euro. Also insgesamt 150 Euro.... Ich lass das jetzt einfach machen. Danach habe ich hoffentlich Ruhe ;)
Hello Prometeusz, this is the video I was looking for. Thank you. I never had a scooter and I still hesitate between electrical vs gaz (i have EV). What is the theoretical and real autonomy of yours on middle mode (not econo)? Have a good day.
@@prometeusz.jasinski Sorry to ask again- what is the theoretical autonomy of your scooter (you have 2 batteries)? On the NIU site scooters with two batteries are 110-160km (on paper :-). Depending on usage , modes, weather ,weight etc i know in reality is less.
@@jdrublebuble those numbers are given at 45km/h or even at lower speeds. I recommend forums for real numbers depending on the scooter type you are interested in.
Wurde mir zwar angeboten, offiziell hat niu es aber verboten. Somit habe ich es nicht riskieren wollen etwas damit zu zerschießen. Ich will mind 50k versuchen zu erreichen
@@prometeusz.jasinski Wieviel Kilometer hat der NIU schon geschafft? Gab es Probleme mit den Akkus ,Elektronik, Display oder dem Motor ? Welche Akkus sind verbaut? Danke

Do you know if the EVO will come to other european countries other than NL? Scandinavian countries?
@@joakimdam9723 Probably yes. I see many stores in Scandinavia on their site. Enail them
@@dotternetta it's not on the danish site, guess i have to wait
ignore those evos.lot of issues with them also performance issues after upgrade software.
@@dokesz530I know, I bought it and was so lucky I could return it and got fully refunded. It was Niu's biggest fail ever
Thanks for the video.
I got exactly the same mileage and just about the same battery score.

The battery will have approx 600 to 800 Charging cycles, i think the bike will break down before the batteries

Hola buenas noches gracias por su video. Disculpe usted vive cerca del mar? O neva en su ciudad? Saludos
Hi, sorry my Spanish is very bad. You refer to living next to the sea?
Battery is surprisingly good
Tbh I've got another year and half with this bike I can't wait to leave it behind and go with a new brand
What would you get next? I'm considered getting a Niu here in the Philippines
@@powerautosportsusa9691 I sold the niu a few days ago and got myself a nmax
@@leahlambert5737 damn that's what I'm in between lol. A niu or an nmax or pcx. Leaning more towards the pcx. I have full solar at the house which is why I considered the niu.
@@powerautosportsusa9691 I went for the n max 2022 because of the technology
What were your reasons to get rid of it?
Very nice! I have the same NGT. A question regarding rust etc. How often do you wash/rinse it? I wash mine a couple of times each month.
I treat it like a car for commuting. So I wash it only 4-5 times a year.
I washed mine after 1 year, because I treated everything against rust and didn't want to wash it off
@@dotternetta How well is it protected after you treated it? Any corrosion? How did you treat it?
@@joakimdam9723 Spraycan, almost no corrosion, but I started too late. New scooter will be threated right away

Hello Prometeusz
Need you help here😊
I bought niu ngt like yours last year
Everytging went well i driver 2000km last year without any problems but today it want start , both batteries are fully charged
Do you have some tip maybe?
Thanks in advance
Hi, not sure what your problem is. You are very unspecific here. Please tell me exactly what you do and see
My NQi M sport 2022 charger weight is 1.8 kg with cords. Is it common in NIU?

Obviously, gasoline vehicles are good enough. The battery technology of electric vehicles has been improved slightly, and the energy density is too low.

Non sense. 110km range for an electric scooter is more then perfect.

whats the range of the scooter
At least 70km full speed until battery saving hits in.
Yes, same here
