For the Price🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Great video, i was wondering about the turning radius on the trike. Even the 15Mph is pretty good, too. i would definitely use like light to medium pedal assist to get the most range out of it but also not get me too tired, lol
i love these videos they help me alot
Great Review!
Thank you! I really appreciate it 😊
Hey Tom off topic but the max g2 got “boost mode” on a new update it received.
Hey! I saw that and installed it immediately haha. Been waiting forever for that update. The boost feature is definitely a plus. I wish there was a way to choose when to use it, but I’ll take it haha. I plan to test it again on that mountain road to see if the performance improves. Probably this coming weekend.l :).
Do you think it will make it up South Mountain peddling and using the throttle?
Oh for sure. I actually rode it around on some really steep grassy inclines and it had plenty of torque to make it up. The incline test was about 12.5% grade, which is ~2.5% more than the steepest section on South Mountain. I would have done the test up there but the trunk of my Mazda is a bit too small to fit it in there.
Does this have the auto function
It doesn’t have the auto gear shift function. That would be awesome though :).
Hello Tom. Man I really like how you explain every part on this Ebike. What can I say. Another Amazing review. Thank you. 😎
Thanks so much! This was a fun one to make. Almost felt like installing an umbrella and a food tray as well as throwing a cooler in the back to kick back and relax haha.
Does the XP Lite battery fit on the 3.0 and vise versa?
Could you purchase another battery and change it out easily if one battery goes dead?
It looks like InMotion sells a replacement battery that already has all the plugs pre installed. It would just be a matter of removing the deck screws from the bottom and swapping the battery.
Only 61 lbs without seat?? It's listed at a few tenths under 70lbs on the site. Problem is, im a fat guy, and a few lbs over the stated max rider weight. I think i may need the extra power of the gallop, but 85lbs is a bit too much. My first scooter was 97lbs and i told myself id never get one that heavy again for commuting.
Yah the seat adds quite a bit of weight. If you’re above the max weight I’d recommend the gallop. The dual motors make all the difference. When you commute with it do you take it inside with you or do you lock it up outside?
@tomsgadgetgarage it would be coming inside the building with me. Security is kind of a pain where I work, too. I haven't asked them directly if I can bring a scooter inside, but I have a feeling ill have a better chance of slipping through the cracks if I'm carrying a folded scooter vs just pushing it inside with the stem upright.
The tariffs on Chinese battries are killing making an Apollo go possible. If it's 899 I can do but 1200 and more forget it
Yah that 25% tariff is a bummer. Driving up the cost of all PEVs.
Just curious which one would you recommend for me, I will use it to commute to school which is about 6 kilometres there and back. I would like suspensions fast acceleration and speed and I do like the look of the regen break so which if these 3 would you recommend
For what you mentioned above, I’d go with the Apollo GO. It does cost more but it’s a much more refined scooter than the other two plus it’s faster in every respect.
What charging bag is that you used to charge the battery in the house. I don't see a link for it. Nice video.
Thank you! So I use this one here amzn.to/4dAd60r. It comes in two sizes. I’d go with the larger bag in case you ever get larger size batteries.
So I accidentally made my scooter motors go in reverse was in shock. Was able to get it back to normal after some fidgeting with it off and on and some throttle and brake sequences
That’s crazy. So basically the scooter was running in reverse?
This is 10 times better than my Apollo Go…. i’m taking my Apollo Go back….
It does have a range advantage and lower price tag. It doesn’t have a full suspension, but the front hydraulic shocks do a great job of absorbing impact.
@@tomsgadgetgarage And it’s 10× more comfortable and stable than the Apollo I had, which was about equal price… now that I think about it, the Apollo was more expensive
Did you try the new boost mode? Its gives you a much better acceleration, you have to re do your hill climb test.
The update finally became available to me and I installed it yesterday. Definitely an upgrade haha. I will be redoing some of my tests :).
Why didn’t you use the regen braking ?
I blame it all on habit haha. I now almost exclusively use regen. When I made this video I was newer to the whole dedicated regen lever.
I just ordered mine today. A little nervous but excited too. Looking forward to learning and riding and hopefully having fun. Great video.
Thank you! It takes getting used to, but soon enough, you’ll get it. I’m able to cruise around the neighborhood with no problem. Just waiting until it cools down because the pavement here in the Phoenix area is around 160F during the day lol. My ankles burn from the heat haha.
It's fun to ride I just bought. And I'm having a blast
That’s awesome! I’ve been enjoying mine as well. You wouldn’t think a little sit down scooter could be so zippy haha. Have fun! 🛴
@@tomsgadgetgarage yes you wouldn't. But it takes me where I need to go and back, comfortably and smooth on bumps
Killin me, sweet ebike and a cx9. Just sold my 2022 cx9 and got a honda truck. I loved how that car drove, miss it badly
Mazda really does make some nice cars. Their new CX-90 looks pretty sweet inside. That Honda truck will probably last forever though. My parents bought a 2006 Ridgeline brand new and still drive it today with over 400k miles.
Do you have full throttle in lower peddle assist, like PA 1 or 2 ? Oh, yeah, thank you for doing this non biased review. I hate watching reviews when the guy never says anything bad because he just got a free e-bike
Hey! So in PAS 1 & PAS 2 the throttle is limited to the PAS limits of ~9mph and 15mph. You can go into the P-settings and set it so that throttle is set to max amperage in all PAS levels while retaining some limits in PAS 1 & PAS 2, although they are quite a bit higher than the default setting. In PAS 3 the limit is the 20mph for throttle. In PAS 4 & 5 throttle has the same 20mph limit but get you to speed much faster than PAS 3.
@@tomsgadgetgarage great info. I have an XP 2.0 and I have full throttle authority in all PAS settings but I know on the XP 3.0 it has the PWR and throttle is tied to PAS which I wouldn't like. Let's say your stopped at a road crossing, in PAS 1 and you need to give it the "beans" ....... no power, not cool. But your saying you can tweek it in setting to give the thumb throttle more punch in 1 or 2 ? That's cool. Thanks! I wonder if there is a way to put a lectric twist throttle on this bike. I am an old motocross guy from the 1970s, that thumb throttle is strange and it's on the wrong side!!! :)
I’m confused. I thought the updates on a scooter was supposed to make them perform a lot better ???
The Segway updates have been a hit or miss but they have improved the experience for the better over the long run. At launch, scooters were overheating, ghost braking, plus some other issues. Those have pretty much all been resolved. They also released a new firmware update which unleashes more power.
@@tomsgadgetgarage I have the Apollo Go and it’s horrible on distance, but I do love the scooter. I purchased two and we’re going to return them….And they take 4 ever too recharge 😡
I’m confused. I thought the updates on a scooter was supposed to make them perform a lot better ???
Yah sometimes the updates fix an issue but may take away from something else.
Dude, I still can't get over this thing beating the Apollo GO to 20mph!! ...then out ranging it by 5mi while doing the same average speed, with a technically smaller battery. HAHA! I only thought of this because so many people on the forums are captured and memorized by Apollo's marketing about their electronic efficiency. Obviously it's a combination of controlers, cells and motors but whatever InMotion is doing, it's super impressive at a $699 price point. Literally the only thing it's missing when compared to the other Commuter Groups, is a front suspension. Since I don't care about turn signals and button placement isn't a deal breaker for me with this type of scooter, my "magic wand" changes for the climber would be 3-4 mph higher speed and a simple, front suspension.
The acceleration was definitely a surprise. It gets to speed really quickly and smoothly. If they ever come out with a suspension version with the same ride experience, they will really be a force to be reckoned with. I’m tempted to take it up to South Mountain in the coming weeks. I feel like it could possibly do the whole route.
Wow, what a tractor! I knew it would pull hills well but didn't know it would have that kind of acceleration available as well. This review was a complete surprise for because of the 4-5 other youtube reviews for this model, they all left me with questions and without a solid grasp of what this model as to offer. BY FAR, the best review of this scooter from anyone, ever!
Thanks so much man! I wasn’t sure what to expect with it being a $699 dual motor scooter. I was actually blown away by its performance both on hills and on flat ground.
I really like that Inmotion but, I live in Costa Rica and here there is no distributor of that brand, there are no accessories or spare parts, and I was searching on Aliexpress and I didn't find batteries or anything for the scooter either, on the other hand for the Ninobot Max G2 there is a distributor here and on Aliexpress there is everything, that's why I'm undecided which one to go for and after that I contacted the distributors directly and I haven't had a response from Inmotion.
I am hoping to have shelving units That I could store my snow blower, lawn mower, generator etc under when not in use. to do that the lowest shelf would need to be 25 to 33 inces off of the floor. Do you think that would work with this unit or would you be afraid that would make the unit unstable? How high up do you think the lowest shelf could be off of the floor without causing a ungenerous situation?
Hello! So these units likely wouldn’t be good for this purpose. The lower shelf is important for stability, and I’d be worried about accidentally bumping one of the lightly supported legs.
The boyfriend just bought one of these and I'm sending him your links to the cloud 9 seat and suspension post - thank you for posting the correct size of the post! :)
Congrats on the new bike and thank you 😊. The Cloud 9 seat is so nice compared to the stock seat.
I'm at 311 miles on my 3.0 standard battery and I've had no huge problems. The shifting isn't perfect and the front brake makes some noise from time to time. But I can easily make a 20 mile round trip in 6th gear only using pedal assis 1 and 2 over hills and I'm 215lbs
That’s awesome. Yah I like cruising around in PAS 2. For the shifting, I actually took mine in to get tuned and now it shifts perfectly. They removed six links from the chain and made some adjustments to the derailleur.
got mine for 700 after the discount code, comes tomorrow. Cant wait, i got a cheap 300 dollar scooter off amazon that goes 19mph and i get around pretty ez on that, but this has nearly triple the battery and shocks. I cant imagine how much smoother things are gonna feel on that morning commute.
It’ll be a night and day difference haha. Like moving from a Ford Focus to a Cadillac sedan. What I love about this scooter is its versatility compared to your typical commuter scooter. Having the extra ground clearance and suspension travel gives you way more options for riding over obstacles. Plus it’s got the seat which is actually quite comfortable if you need it.
My step clip broke. Have you ever experienced that
Hey! Is that the latching/hook mechanism when folding the scooter?
You talk torque with the dual motor setup but I don't think I ever heard the claimed number. Watts (nom/peak) for power and no torque value. Do they not provide the numbers?
So strangely enough there are no published torque numbers that I can find online or in any of the product documentation. I also don’t have a dyno to test it out on. They’ve got to be high though because the Climber really excels at climbing steep inclines.
Is the p7 currently available? I don’t see it on the website.
Ah they have the title on the page wrong. It’s this one here bit.ly/3Wr7Bdg. It says P2 but it’s actually the P7. I just emailed them to let them know. Thanks! Good catch. It will say 1200W in the title and have the adjustable seat.
These things don't have regenerative breaking?
It does have electronic braking/regen in the motor in addition to the disc brakes.
@@tomsgadgetgarage So mild braking does rejen and full blown braking uses the pads?
@@tomsgadgetgarage There's another P5 version with fixed height seats but comes with shocks on the front and rear wheels. My concern is that for a 5'10" guy like me, it's sitting too low to be comfortable. The one you review here has higher seats with shocks, but no wheel shocks. What do you think? Which one is better?
I prefer the one with adjustable seat and handlebars. I’m also 5’10” and definitely took advantage of the adjustability. The 14” tires honestly do an excellent job of absorbing impact so no suspension really wasn’t an issue for me.
I loved everything about the inmotion climber except for one thing - the abominable range. I managed to get about 9 miles on mostly flat terrain, minimal hills.
How much u weigh ?
So I got just over 24 miles weighing in around 204lbs.
@@panchovilla3493 I weighted 250 lbs, and they said (when I contacted them) that I should have gotten around 15+ miles of range on mostly flat terrain (I'm beachfront community). PS: My climber didn't have the turn signal feature...This is an upgraded model. Personally, I think it's fantastic, but not for me. I ended up getting the Inmotion S1F after they allowed me to return this one. I can get 20+ miles of range on the S1F.
At 250 I would have expected more than 9 miles. That’s good to know they swapped it out for you. How are you liking the S1F so far?
The brakes on this thing is loud as hell. You can hear it in this review. I returned it for that reason alone. You don't even need the bell to alert people, they can hear the squeaky brakes from a mile away.
Yah my brakes started squeaking after riding around in dusty areas. I will clean them with some alcohol and see if that does it. Unfortunately with disc brakes, they are prone to squeaking, especially when riding around muddy/dusty areas. Funny story, Porsche actually published a video on how squeaky brakes are normal lol. Probably had to many people in the service department 😅
Valid complaint but every disc brake scooter is susceptible to this. Sometimes it's inherent to a particular design that causes more resonate squealing but a lot of the time it's just the brake pad material that the manufacturer happened to acquire through a particular vendor. Sometimes it's the rotor design or metallurgy. In any case, there's usually an inexpensive fix, for people who really like the scooter otherwise.
Great video.Have you tried the APOLLO 2024 dualmotor 500w each max of 2000W? Would be great on these same roads. See you again soon. Thank you. 🎉
Hey! I haven’t tried the 2024 Apollo City yet. It’s definitely on my list of scooters to look at next. But they also announced a new redesigned version of the Phantom so now I’m stuck haha.
It’s just to slow
I feel it’s definitely got some kind of electronic limiter on the speed. It’s got so much power for its size and weight. Once you get close to top speed it feels like it could keep going forever haha.
Great review…out of this and the Go, which would you choose?
So the Apollo GO also has excellent hill climb ability and acceleration as well. It comes out on top with higher top speed, suspension, and excellent lighting. But if $1,199 is out of the question, I honestly think the $699 price tag for the Climber is a steal of a deal, especially when you consider the power you get.
Looks like a nice scoot. Bummer you had to walk it home. You're very dedicated. Thanks.
Thanks! Yah it was a couple miles in the heat haha. Looked a lot closer on the map 😅. My wife was like, are you sure you don’t want me to pick you up…nah looking at the map I’m only about 10 minutes from the car. 40 minutes later I’m still walking. Had myself a large Chick-Fil-A lemonade and a glass of liquid IV after that nonsense lol. I’m definitely giving myself more of a buffer next time.
What's the battery voltage when it started blinking?
I don’t recall, but I’ll run it down again and let you know.
Are you going to get and test any of the VMAX scooters? Like to see how they do on your hill test but also compare with Segway G2.
I’d love to test their scooters out. If I can get one I’ll absolutely run it through the same tests to compare to other commuter scooter like the G2.
Love the all in one review video!
Thank you! It’s a departure from my normal multi-video format so glad you like it 😀.
Between the joyor s10 or that one, which one would be better? Both cost the same.
So I’ve never tested a Joyor product before. It definitely has an interesting looking folding mechanism and quite a bit of power from the looks of it. What I personally like about the Climber is its simplicity. There’s no clutter, no wires hanging all over the place. It’s pure power in a very discreet form factor.
Both ..Good for the price.. But this emotion works better in the rain. 🌧️
@@tomsgadgetgarage And between the max g2 and that inmotion, which one do you recommend? I have the ninobot g30lp and I want something with more range and that is a little faster.

@@yngbiker7816 , The Joyor will have more autonomy than the other two! And it's 60V... There is a new one: Joyor S10S Z V2 🤭
Which scooter would you prefer this one or the G2?
The Max G2 has a more comfortable ride because of its class leading suspension. But it really does lack in power compared to the Climber. The Climber can also tackle much steeper inclines than the Max G2. So for that reason, if I had to choose between the two from a performance and hill climbing perspective, I’d go with the Climber. Segway is in the process of rolling out new firmware which brings more power to the Max G2, but it’s not available for me to test yet. As soon as it becomes available, I’ll test performance on both.

I never noticed how many hills are on my commute until I started Biking and scootering. Another thing to test after a hill climb is how hot are the motors? You can feel with your hand or get a thermometer for a true reading. I notice on a hill climb my motor gets HOT!!! I try to take it easy to keep the motor as cool as possible.
Me too except i started jogging .every small hill even a bump😅is noticeable 😮
I think I saw 142F during the range test. I’ll definitely keep an eye on it when testing scooters, especially out here in the desert.
Haha I need to start running again. I gained like 25lbs since I started all this scootering and stopped running lol.
Great review as always, Tom! You should retest the acceleration on the ninebot max G2 with the new nos mode firmware (1.11.1). It peaks at 1400w+ now and seems to get to max speed so much faster now.
Thank you! 😊 I’ve been waiting so long for that update. Everyday I walk by my G2 and click check for update and nothing haha. But the moment I know I’m eligible, I’ll do a whole video on it. I used to get those updates as soon as they released them.
