I just got this scooter and once you tighten everything up the way you should the front is fine , the controls work fine on mine , this a,very well built scooter for the money I weigh roughly 200# , scooter goes 26 mph no problem and goes about 35 miles on a charge not driving all out
I took delivery of this scooter last week and love it. I sealed everything underneath that way i wont worry too much if i get caught in the rain. I agree with you about the jerkiness and how harsh the brakes are. I thought it was just me because im 45 and havent ridden a bike or whatever in almost 30 years. I do have another scooter coming next week so hopefully it works better than this.
thanks for the feedback. please keep me posted on the brake behavior of the other scooter. i went 2 days ago on a small 6% downhill grade and it is no fun with these brakes because you cannot control them to a reasonable velocity. the coasting settled at 15mph and i wanted 10mph - impossible. takes a lot of scooter fun away. i will be getting new pads tomorrow and hope it improves the brakes. i also have a funny annoying noise coming from near the front wheel, not sure stem or suspension - i lubricated everything with access to no avail. maybe need to through it on an oil bath :). how did you seal it? removed the metal pane? also plenty of holes in the cable feed throughs. oh i really wish eh scooter would have regen braking. not so much for the batter charging but for smooth braking.
@@es1951 I just took delivery of my Arwibon GT08 and boy this thing is a beast. Dual motor 5600w of power. I can turn on turbo etc. It's exceptionally fast and smooth and while coming down hills and putting the brakes on, it was smooth and I wasn't getting scared. I think the Arwibon scooter will be the only one I use from now on. I did about 18 miles on it and it was just fun.
@@es1951 I'd say it's very well built. It's bigger than this Engwe. The thing weighs like 70 something pounds. So far I've been riding it around since getting it and I never feel nervous or anything coming down the hills
@@ghostengineer that is great - i am happy for you. yes the Y600 is on the lighter side which i clearly like. btw i figured out the problem of he jerky harsh brakes. find the explanation in my update in the comment above.

@@ghostengineer sounds great. so you are saying smooth brakes :). how is overall quality compared to the Y600?
