First Scooter? You Won’t Be Disappointed!
My review is a little different because I’m going to compare the $500-ish HiBoy with my expensive $1000+ scooter to show you that expensive DOES NOT always mean “better”! Both scooters are under a year old. The expensive scooter (rhymes with “blue”) has only 2 qualities that I like about it - It’s the lightest scooter on the market, making it very easy to carry around, and it has a big wide deck like a skateboard that’s very comfortable. Other than that, it’s been nothing but a headache. How much of a headache? I’m glad you asked. * HEAVILY dependent on the app (I have an older phone and the app was not compatible. Had to get a Pre-Paid phone just to activate the scooter) * “Customer Service” was emails that didn’t understand the context of what I was saying. * Handlebar end caps come loose and fall off. Lost one of them. * Alarm system can only be deactivated with the app * Got a flat, the company states that the tires are “tubeLESS”, repair shop tells me they are NOT. Spent another $150 for wheel replacement. * Brake pads became misaligned after a short time causing a weird noise. * Oh, …and the computer screen just died. AND IT’S NOT EVEN A YEAR OLD!! Now onto my experience with the HiBoy S2 Pro - I was out riding the HiBoy in about 10 minutes (after charging the battery of course). The HiBoy has a nice app, but it’s NOT NECESSARY for you to get up and running. The Acceleration/Deceleration is very smooth. Engages the cruise control very easily. The ride is SMOOTHER than the expensive scooter because of the shocks. Yes you will feel the bumps if you are riding over something like cobblestone or uneven brick-paved roads, but you will never get a flat and the shocks do a great job. The deck lights are not just decorative and cool looking, they really do make you more visible at night. Overall it’s just a great no nonsense no BS scooter with a pleasurable ride experience. I really love it! The S2 Pro is so popular in my town that I had to put a sticker on it so I know which one is mine when I lock it up to go into a store! If any problems occur within this first year of owning it, I will come back and edit this review. But as of now I am LOVING IT, and I feel confident in saying, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!
