Hate on these all you want, but reliability it not an issue, mine has 1500km and has had no issues (apart from tire punctures, which is no longer an issue as I’ve switched them out for solid ones)
Should i buy this scooter?
It was recommended to me based on my reqs. I need something to go to work, its about 15km commute total.
Roads are dogshit (potholes, a lot of cobblestone, uphill etc.) and i weigh 110kgs, i dont need it to go fast, i'm fine with cruising at 30km/h but ideally it would have at least some pull.
Currently have the Mi essentials and everyone told me its a kid's scooter and i am way too big for it (kind of true, although i like its speed its fine would just like more torque... )
Another suggestion was rovoron r7 (iirc)
Anyways thanks in advance for any info. I am a total beginner bt the way and the essentials was basically a gift (found it in my neighbours basement and they just gave it to me... ) now i realize i want to actually buy one hence the thread here
I tried all the troubleshooting stuff but worst case scenario what do you guys think it is? controller or motor? or is the battery been sitting too long? I'm not sure because it's an inquiry from a buddy of mine who had it to purchased it from someone else.
Just got my G3 Max on Friday night and I already put about 50 miles. It’s my first scooter.
The thing is beefy! It does OK on off road… I’m curious how the ZT3 would have handled it. It isn’t the ride height or tires, but just suspension comfort going on non paved service roads.
On the paved trails, I’m getting more comfortable with it. I was ripping it on some paved trails at a park today in drive mode. I could have gone faster, but there are some pedestrians and I felt it was more respectful not flying past people going almost 30.
On roads, the 28mph is great. Honestly I feel good enough that if the speed was more, I’d still feel comfortable with it. I went on some overpasses (steep climbs) and it did perfectly fine with it.
The biggest con for me is the battery life. I got 14 miles and mix of sport and drive and I was at like 35% battery. I know people are putting the gt3 battery in it, but I’m not sure about that just yet. I might give the external battery a try. I wasn’t ready to go home yet, but I started heading home when battery was at %50.
I also wish there was a sport mode at 20mph and sport+ at 28… 20 is a great sweet spot for cruising. 28 is awesome but really eats the battery. Drive mode is great for paved trails you might share with pedestrians.
I was going to get the st3 or the f3. I’m glad I went with the G3. I truly love it.
Thought about dt2 pro for the speed and range but it’s getting little heavy for me since I want to be able to put this inside a plane. Even g3 is pushing it on weight. I wanted to stay at ~40lb range.
Overall, it really is a fun gadget to have!
I’m thinking of buying an electric scooter, upgrading from the 20,000km Ninebot G30. I want something that never breaks on me. I will service breaks and stuff, but no opening the deck, motor housing, stuff like that. And I’ve been thinking between the g3 and the zt3 the g3 has better specs, but the ZT3 is designed for off-road and should be more reliable based on basic logic.
Hi, I'm looking to buy my first scooter, and I have a budget of €500. I'd like to know of a good option that fits two people (an adult and a child) and has a good balance between range and speed. It would be for city riding, going to school, the gym, work, etc.
What’s the issue any guess
Charger, charging port or battery
Hello everyone. I need some help and information:
Is there a steering column extension for the Segway Max G3 and Segway ZT3 PRO?
And where can it be bought or ordered?
Thanks.
So I plan on using my e-scooter primarily as a way to get to and from work which is about 2 miles away from my house. I've watched many videos and have tried to narrow it down to a few that I might like. My price range is anywhere from $900 to $2,500. They seem to have some features that I like but a few I don't. Is there any of them that have all the features listed below?

Nice to Have:
I just got a used evercross h5 for commute to work (7.4 miles w/ overall 300 ft climb.) It has 12 miles on it and can get up and go easily to 20+ mph but was hoping someone had experience with one as applicable to climbing hills and battery life.
The Specs state 20 mile range but I’d rather see if someone else has used one and knows of this is true than push it 4 miles because crap batteries.
I got this rather cheap and am using it as a “learn before you spend a crap ton”
Thanks in advance.
Just moved to a big city, 202k population, from a very small place. what are some of the best tips for riding safely here? I am terrified of what any random driver might do, even if they are paying attention. I know we are mostly invisible out there.
Hello!
I have recently bought a Ravemen K1400 headlamp. It’s the first light I have had for my scooter that comes with this small remote. I assume the remote is to keep the controls in easier reach than the headlamp itself which is obviously mounted in the middle of the handlebars. What are people doing with these remotes? Do you mount it on the handlebars but near the breaks? It’s arrived with a rubber band that looks like it’s meant to be put on the scooter. Or is this something that people keep in their pockets? Thanks

Ich habe mir ein max 2 geholt und habe eine wegfahrsperre drin nur kannte die kombination nicht auswendig und habe ihn ausversehen eingegenen ohne es mit der app aufzumachen. Habe es davor immer mit der app auf gemacht jetzt ist er total gesperrt support hilft auch nicht gabz kann mir bitte einer helen !!!
I have a hover-1 journey max which has a throttle with a built-in power button. See this youtube video for what it looks like:
https://youtu.be/gMQAv-iOOco?t=40
The scooter dropped on the ground today from standstill, so very minor drop. But it appears maybe the throttle got impacted somehow, and the power button no longer clicks. I have to twist the throttle in reverse direction in order to activate the power button, and even then it's very difficult. And the throttle itself seems to be stuck in on position even though it's not twisted at all.
So I guess something got mangled in the throttle itself. I couldn't find this particular throttle in a google search, any ideas how I can locate a replacement?
Also could it be possible to take apart the throttle itself to try and repair it? I unscrewed the mounting screw, but it did not come apart, which I guess makes sense. So I think I would need to completely remove the throttle from the handlebar to have any hope of taking it apart.
Any pointers on what I need to do to remove the throttle from the handlebar? Does the display need to be pried away to disconnect the wiring?
Teverun, Ausom or Yume. I’ve searched those 3 but having a hard time deciding. Just need help picking the best model.
Looking to spend between $1200-$1500!
Narrowed down my used scooter choices to these two. Trying to pay around 350/450 Opinions?
trying to figure out how to get this 36volt scooter to move faster, with the general flow of traffic. On a flat out it gets to 20 mph sorta allrightish, but then cuts out. at exactly 20 mph. but it feels like it has more in it. can't locate which wire is speed limiter, if that hack even exists, and there is no app or combination of display options that i know of to get this thing to move faster. any suggestions?
Ninebot by Segway KickScooter E0 (2021) - This is what it is listed as.
I can't find any information on it after a long time looking. would love to see some specifications. Would really appreciate any help
