      Seriously good, subscribed to the channel! For me considering one of these scooters is, it's just as fast as a car in the city, and I don't have to pay parking or the cost of fuel as I charge it at work and I get 4 days out of it before charge :D ! The rage is amazing even for me at 103KG. Another thing is there is no parking at work after 8am. So with this, I don't have to get to work mental early.

    Just bought one, it’s still in the box, from Canadian Tire. After taxes currently under $1500CDN. downloaded the app so far. Looking forward to unboxing it tonight. I live about a 7 min drive, and about a 45 min walk from work. I don’t have need for a car, but I end up relying on rides from others. This way I can get to work without relying as much on another to get me to work, and toss it in the work van and get dropped off at the end of the shift. If my work partner can’t that day, it’s ok too. Pop out the scooter and enjoy the ride home. Not concerned about the weight, I install garage doors for a living so it’s just another heavy thing I throw in the van. I thank you for validating my purchase decision, as I’m sure people I know will think it’s crazy for someone quickly approaching retirement age to be buying this, lol. You’ve convinced me of it’s strengths. Having owned electric skateboard and e-bikes when SLA batteries were the norm, they were poorly built and didn’t last long. The e-bike the handlebars broke off while riding, the electric skateboard broke me, lol thx for posting

    Awesome Scooter. Massive range, good/moderate speed limit at 25km/hr. Big wheels, and very comfortable ride for skilled skateboarders and BMX riders, who have previous mastered a few things, using your body to assist in hopping over bumps... Tyres are great, great grip, great absorption.... I barely even fold it up... Scoot to the Supermarket for a small shop, and place the basket on the kickboard, and just walk through the aisles that way... This vehicle is part of our future in cities... I'm 46, and I think I could easily ride this at 75 years of age. Super cheap to run...

      You said it Simon! Plus the Max is very simple to maintain as well unlike its predecessors, Xiaomi M365 Pro & M365, due to it risking a fatal inner tube puncture and its very, very, very difficult to replace the inner tube, quite a lot of man POWER lol.

To be honest, the payback distance is 200km to 1500km, depending on what value you put on your own time, and how much time it can save you... Yes, that is wide range above!

But this is not stopping tons of scooters being sold here. I had such fun riding hire versions (ES4) in Europe last year. A great way to see a city and best sense of solo freedom I've had, since my surfing days a very long time ago. I just have to get one now. Appreciate the Xiaomi and Segway reviews - they're a big help in making my decision. Cheers.

    Brilliant review Stu. I'm recently retired and a gadget junkie. I love my Bulls Outlaw mtb ebike, but wanted a different e-vehicle experience. So I'm new to escooters and I selected the segway/ninebot g30pl. It's a bit under speced to the original g30. It would be great if you can review this newer version in the lineup. And I agree, Jeremy C is a copycat of your style. 😉

    Fun review! I am way late to the G30 party, I have had two of them for about three weeks. Maybe a bit less. But the interesting thing is, everything you stated in this video still holds true. These are very well made basic scoots. They aren't going to win any races but it will likely not break down on you. I have dove as deeply into reading up on them as I can, as well as riding them as much as I can. The only problem I have heard is that sometimes they can burn up if you are heavy on the regen braking when the battery is already at 100%. All of that power has to go somewhere and when the battery is already full, it builds up in the controller and causes it to burn up...physically melt. So if you ride one and often use the regen brake, make sure you get the battery down from 100% some first. That goes for me too, especially when I have performed the "second throttle for regen deceleration" mod - I have an extra throttle lever on the left side for the rear electric brake. I just have to remember to run the battery down some before I get too heavy on it.

      Mine are ready to be changed. I cant find any replacement from Segway, only on Banggood/Ebay etc. And I have two options: the OEM looking tubeless air, or a solid rubber (no air) with holes for "suspension" equivalent to the air tires. I ordered a pair of both, but I have not changed them yet. It looks pretty straight forward, but definitely requires some work and peeling up the deck grip and reflector tape to get to some screws, and also removing the rear wheel from the deck. Then of course, prying the tire off the wheel and prying the new one on using some tire tools. There are some videos online of this procedure.

    • @sn3ax
      @sn3ax 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      No. It can start to appear but then you should fix it by tightening some screws as the more it wobbles the more it wobbles itself loose. M365 is notorious for this, the Ninebot should be able to hold up a bit longer. There must be some videos or instructions online on how to fix it or which screws to tighten.

    @SeekerDK 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Great content as always Stu. Though a couple of thoughts;
    1. Comparisons with ES2 and m365 isn't really fair due to the price difference. More equal would be ES4 and m365 pro (which also have more similar speed and battery capacity)
    2. You talk a lot about upgrades over the m365, but that is a different brand. Ninebot and Xiaomi are not affiliated (but to be fair, design-wise it is closer to the m365)
    2b. EDIT: Xiaomi is in fact an investor in Ninebot, but amongst many others
    3. Adding the ability to make it go faster than 15mph would make it illegal, that's why it is not a feature. But you can mod the firmware to unlock the full potential; easily to 30kmh with a one-click flasher app and even faster if you build/flash your own firmware (easy tools are available)
    4. Tubeless tires can puncture as well, but the G30 has a coating inside the tire that repairs most punctures
    5. Charging cable is just a standard power plug (cloverleaf or Mickey Mouse connector) and is fairly common, so usually you don't even have to carry that and replacements are cheap (and love that the "uncomfortable" part is UK only :P )
    Disclaimer, I do not actually own a G30, but researched it quite a bit and was close to buying one, but ended up with an ES4 as a found an almost-new secondhand for ~250£

    • @StusReviewsUK
      @StusReviewsUK  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Like I said, it’s less of a comparison for capabilities and more the ‘spiritual successor’. FYI Xiaomi and ninebot are affiliated... Xiaomi basically own them (without it being official). They’ve invested huge amounts of money in them... my question is if they were unaffiliated and competing in the electric scooter market, why would Xiaomi be pumping money into them? 😉
      My guess the only reason it’s not ‘official’ is so that they can create a monopoly on the market.
      For that reason I still believe it to be a fair comparison when looking at it as a spiritual successor to both the ES2 (which is also the es4) and the m365 (including the pro model when it comes to design choice)z

    • @SeekerDK
      @SeekerDK 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Well. Yes and no. Xiaomi has invested in Ninebot, but Ninebot is privately held and as far as I can dig up, there are other companies/funds (like Intel, SDIC, and China Mobile Innovation Industry Fund) who has invested a lot more in Ninebot. I'm not sure where you get that Xiaomi basically owns them, but if that is the case, it is pretty well hidden.
      As for why; the best investor is always the one who knows the market and Xiaomi does, the rest is speculation. But it is peculiar that they copied the folding mechanism, removed the shock absorption in favor of pneumatic tires and actually mentions the inspiration from m365 in the original backer campaign www.indiegogo.com/projects/ninebot-max-ultimate-electric-scooter-by-segway
