Segway Ninebot MAX Series Electric Scooter for Adults 22-28 MPH Up to 50 Miles Range Dual Suspension UL-2272

The media could not be loaded. This is my first E-Scooter purchase. I was in the market to buy one for a while but setbacks kept me from making the purchase. I researched tirelessly until I realized it's best for me to try and ride one for reference. So I saw Unagi has a rental service and I rented a Model One. It had dual motors for hills which I thought was necessary for hill climbing on my commute. While the scooter was decent it lacked suspension and the solid and tiny all rubber tires just made me come home with achy knees, ankles, and neck. The stem wobbled and just felt like it would eventually break. So I thought I needed a dual motor full suspension scooter which tended to be the high-speed ones that cost over $1200. I went to test drive a bunch that went over 30 MPH. They were all heavy and I knew I couldn't have something over 60 lbs and they were just too much power for me with jerky throttles. Then the G2 came out and I watched reviews and saw that this was considered a huge upgrade from the very popular G30 Max that I saw everywhere because of the suspension. So I took the plunge and ordered the G2. I absolutely love this thing. Tubeless 10" air-filled tires, check. Hydraulic suspension in the front which tends to be found on scooters way more expensive WITH dual spring adjustable suspension in the rear, check. Solid build quality with a manageable yet enjoyable commuter-friendly top-speed, check. Solid wobble-free stem at top speed, check. It has great torque and acceleration and on every hill, I've tried it on on your usual NYC streets, it handles with ease going faster than even the dual-motor Unagi at an average speed of 17 MPH. The brakes are good but I'd recommend setting the regen electrical breaks to medium to assist. I've had no high-temperature failures like some have mentioned nor any of the other programming bugs others have also mentioned. I believe the Universe made sure that I didn't purchase a scooter I'd regret buying and made sure I waited for this perfect scooter to come along. The ONLY issue is the weight since I have 6 flights of steps with my top floor apartment but the trade-off with the suspension is worth it. I have no pain in my body after riding this scooter around for even long rides. It just glides over everything. It is the absolute best way to get around NYC and I find myself not wanting to drive at all. It has transformed my Summer as I can easily explore my neighborhood and others close by with ease and comfort. The G30 Max is a legend but they say once you've had a scooter with suspension there's no going back and I can tell you for sure that is very true. Spend a bit more money (if you can) and get the G2 over the G30. Your joints will thank you, believe me. If you are over 200 lbs I'd recommend waiting until Segway fixes the issue with overheating since it seems like this happens with heavy riders since its max weight limit is 265 lbs. This is all the scooter you need for daily urban commuting with all the potholes, road cracks, uneven pavement, and hills like in NYC. Read more

Got this for my 10yrs old. She flies around on it. The blue tooth was easy to set up and it has a built in find my scooter if stolen. It breaks down super easy for transport to the park or someplace else. The handle bars lower down and lock in place on the scooter. Charging is pretty fast and it lasted for over an hour of constant non stop riding at full speed. It’s got get up and go speed as well. It has different riding settings for beginners or seasoned persons riding and easy to change with pressing some buttons. Has turn signals and hazard lights. Excellent shocks on it as well. Read more

The media could not be loaded. I've owned both Max G1 and G2 before purchasing this, and am super happy with upgrading to G3. The G3 doesn't only have the premium look and build quality, but also has ticked almost all the boxes I've wished for an ideal e-scooter at this price point. What I'm most satisfied with is the top speed, which was even scarily fast initially. But once getting used to it, it's enjoyable when riding on roads with little traffic. The front and rear mechanical disc brakes offer sufficient amount of force to stop this beast with the increased top speed. I was at the beginning skeptical and worried if I might have to upgrade them to hydraulic ones; however, once they've bedded in, I'd to admit they're more than enough. One minor complaint about the brakes is the factory setup is front brake on the right and rear one on the left, which is the opposite of that of bikes. I had to swap them the moment I realized that (attached a video on how it was done). I do hope Segway can change that in US so that customers don't have to deal with the hassle. Other features I enjoy are: the daytime running light for added safety, the upgraded smart display which supports navigation (I've used phone navigation in the freezing winter days and the phone battery just dropped super fast), the mode switch mounted on the handlebar without moving the hand. The range however is noticeably much shorter, especially when riding in Sport mode and frequently hitting the 28MPH top speed. Fortunately Segway will release an external battery soon to solve this issue, which I do feel is a good solution, as I can mount it only when I need more range and keep the scooter lightweight when I don't. There're posts on Reddit that shows the GT3 battery actually can fit into G3, which is has 50% more capacity. However, I'm worried if there'd be fire hazard when charging and decide to pass on it. Overall, G3 is an outstanding scooter at this price point, if the range is not an issue for you. Read more
