Nice review of this scooter. I decided to buy this model recently as alternate transport from work. One little tip I just learned with the folding mechanism: back the scooter against a solid surface while being mindful of the rear fender, lean into the front of the handlebar and use one foot to push the top of the lever down to release. It took some figuring out but it works. Some silicone spray may also help to loosen the lever for easier function.
i got this in Ireland back at the 1st of December 21 for commuting purposes (although here its called a "Fundot" scooter). i agree with alot of whats said in the Vid. the brake is great if your going down steep inclines and indeed charges the battery , but its a nightmare on a flat surface. you seriously have to shift your weight to the back to prevent a spill, and for the love of god DONT use it to come out of cruise control. just tap or double tap the accelerator and the scooter brakes automatically at a fairly decent rate . its a good idea to think ahead of where you want to stop one of the reasons i picked it was because of the solid tires as i didnt want to deal with punctures but it DOES make for a less comfortable ride, depending on the surface. ive actually found concrete roads easier than some tarmaced paths and in some parks i found it easier to use gravel paths over the normal ones. bike lanes are brilliant though. the BEST bit of advice in this vid is about the latching mechanism though. ALWAYS make sure you push the handle bars forward untill you see the green lever essentially become flush with the frame and you hear the "click" . its the only way to be certain its not stuck intermediately. A tip to collapse it if your by yourself is to lower the handle bars as far as they'll go (don't force it just what feels naturally its lowest point) then kneel with all your weight on the back of the scooter near the manual brake while pushing forwards on the steering column. this will then allow you to pull the lever back with your free hand enabling you to collapse the column . itll lock automatically once you get to a certain point. theres no issue with raising it once you want to use it again. it IS annoying how tough the lever is, but i suppose the flip side is once its in its proper place you can be basically certain it wont collapse on you unwantedly. over all its very fast. i personally havent needed to use the 3rd setting on it. it goes up some very steep inclines no problem (though watch it slipping into cruise control) and the battery gets me about 16km per charge which is great considering i live in an area thats VERY uneven. the one time it quit on me is when i forgot to charge it in work and even then it tried to give me 10kph on what areas were flat. which means on the way in to work when it was practically out of power it STILL gave me 23kph whilst going up inclines that were well above 15 degrees at times. im sure theres better out there but for getting to work and back ive been happy with this, the price i got was 305 euros including delivery.
I see from your shadow you're wearing a baseball cap. I did that on my way, my first ride, to Walmart to get a helmet, when I wiped out and bashed my head on the street pretty good, thanks to the auto cruise; all this said for new users - order your helmet with the scooter, knee guards and elbow gear. Seriously. Thumbs up on the review. 👍
is this the HB16? I see it on Amazon the top speed is 20mph and mileage is 22miles, it this one a different product or they just put the optimal number on the product description?
This is the scooter from the video: amzn.to/3zkuf9N, I've never seen the number HB16. BTW: don't buy this one. It's quite rough to ride and the folding mechanism is not safe. Better buy the Gotrax GXL V2: amzn.to/3Bwnjsr. It's 10x better .. !!!
@@allcheckout hey I just got the go trax around the same time u got the h16? Not sure what it’s called sorry- but I really wanted to know which u think is better & why. I also got the hover 1.. lil faster.. but go trax is sturdier, has light, cruise controll & the funniest horn bell 🤣 Pls let me know!
I've never tested this and actually not recommending to buy this scooter. Do yourself a favor and spend a few dollars more and buy something nice like the iSinwheel amzn.to/3NftN3o
@@PtchersWR It collapsed during the ride accidentally (it's very hard to see if it's really locked) and the electric brake is dangerously strong. Way too hard. Also it was not fast enough for me needs and had no suspension. I have now many much better scooters. Even though it's also not perfect - if you love Evercross - then go with the EVERCROSS HB16: amzn.to/3GSNxb8. You can even disable the speed limit ;-))
@@allcheckout I was hoping I can regrease the bearings, so the wheel would turn better, as of now when I spin it, the wheel (the motor rear wheel) would stop spinning within a few seconds. There's nothing wrong with the scooter, I just want to make it run more efficiently:~)
Could be hard to do. Sorry can't help and don't have this scooter any more. I think now it's a bit dangerous because of the harsh e-brake and the folding mechanism
Brakes? Who needs brakes? When riding over rougher surfaces it helps to let your knees bend a little. Move your body with it instead of just standing on a moving platform. When you feel comfortable it feels like a part of you.
Yes it helps ... if tried it as well, but you can buy scooters or the same price with air filled tires and they damp everything nicely. 100x better driving experience. And the brake is really dangerous. This should not be sold. Also the folding mechanism is very unsecure ...
@@allcheckout well you are talking to a guy who does down hill longboarding so the risk i see in this is minimal. I have yet to see any reports of accidents and in my experience this has been a pretty nice ride for around the city. Air tires are nice but I am in gathered central and that would be just a pain. I wouldn't call this the best out there but for the price well worth the purchase.
@@rodneybever9583 If you're a downhill freak you'd never buy this cheap scooter ... no way. As a minimum just do me a favor and buy this one here: www.walmart.com/ip/seort/920927355 ... it's even cheaper. Here the review: th-cam.com/video/dX2lmK5cprw/w-d-xo.html, It has a much better disk brake, way better folding mechanism and has great air tires. Maybe the range is a bit less because of the air tires (I yet to find out ...).
@@allcheckout sorry...don't like the speed limitation. Anyway...I ride an evolve longboard for my main ride. I just don't agree that this scooter is lousy is all. I am so sorry that my opinion bugs you there.
@@rodneybever9583 I respect your opinion, but I still can't find the good side of this scooter, so I sold it anyway after my son had an accident with it after it collapsed because of the bad designed folding mechanism ... How can you override the speed limiter of the evercross btw?

@@allcheckout No problem. Just be careful about the silicon. That was an offhand suggestion that I haven't tried yet. Apply and test at your own risk.
@@sonicdbzfan94 LOL ... thanks ... I've sold this thing already. Bought one with suspension and one with inflatable tires to have more comfort.
Is it still functional?

Glad to know, that I was able to help - thanks for the positive feedback and sharing your experience here! 💖
"It can be really really dangerous" which means if you get hurt don't sue me for suggesting you do it!

Thanks for the nice feedback and sharing your experience. Yeah for sure a good idea to war a helmet. I'm glad you didn't get seriously hurt.
Thanks

No it's not. Hb16 is much better upgraded version.
@@shannonyingling5605 Let's see ... I'll get the HB16 in a few days ... ;-))

@@KY-YE I have the BH16 still in the box ... lol
any updates on how the scooter has been going?
Thanks for asking. It's still the same. Hasn't changed. Holding up nicely, but the problems won't go away ... lol
Yes it’s upgraded it goes to max 167 mph
@@AirsoftKid-zi3li Sure ... beats every Lambo .... 😂😂😂
@@allcheckout nice lol
Do you know if it has regenerative breaking ?
Not so sure regarding this one ...
Hi, how to achieve 27 km ?
Maybe if your body weight is only 50 lb ....
👌🏼
Does it really go 12 miles?
I've never tested this and actually not recommending to buy this scooter. Do yourself a favor and spend a few dollars more and buy something nice like the iSinwheel amzn.to/3NftN3o
When the battery dies it basically just slow down even in cruise but I can still accelerate.
OK - nice
How do u change the speed
How you did 25 mph pls reply
Did I show 25 mph? I think not and I think it's not possible with this scooter
Mines is blinking my black lights can u help
Sry don't have it any more
how has the scooter been so far for you?
Too dangerous, too high price for the quality, not enough fun - I sold it ...
@@allcheckout why? What was wrong with it to make you sell it?

@@allcheckout I agree…the ride is horrible on uneven surfaces and the braking system is too harsh for something that’s labelled a child’s scooter
@@S55_Marquise Thank you for the confirmation 👍
Do i need a license for that?
Depends on the country
Anyone know how to remove the rear wheel hub to change the bearings on this model?
Oh - what happened?
@@allcheckout i just want to grease the bearings.
@@HDsharp Because there was a problem or just as a regular maintenance routine?
@@allcheckout I was hoping I can regrease the bearings, so the wheel would turn better, as of now when I spin it, the wheel (the motor rear wheel) would stop spinning within a few seconds. There's nothing wrong with the scooter, I just want to make it run more efficiently:~)
@@HDsharp OK - I see, but maybe the stopping is not caused by the bearing, but from the motor? Some e-motors are designed like that ...
How to put bluetooth on the scooter
What do you want to achieve?
