Just got my G3 Max. Loving it

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!

G3 max slow leak

I bought a g3 max with my roommate 4 weeks ago. I love it. However, on mine every couple days the back wheel has a slow leak. It is flat after 3 days. There’s no punctures and everything looks good. Any thoughts on what to do? Or how to fix this problem?

Segway max g3 front headlight light bar and signal lights do not work

Hello everyone, yesterday I pulled a parallel cable connection from the g3 maxin light bar as in the photo to install the x light on the zt3 pro. This connection was plugged into the red socket on the motherboard reserved for the light bar. Both the x light did not turn on, and after a while, the headlight bar and signals stopped working and they do not work. I removed the parallel connection and disconnected the cable from the battery and reconnected it, but it still didn't work, why do you think this error is caused, what if I do it will be fixed? I would be very happy if you could help

Segway Max G3D (German version) - Is a controller swap the only way to unlock speed on a 2025 model?

I have a 2025 German Max G30D and I'm trying to bypass the 20km/h limit. My local shop says I need a physical controller swap (€100) because software exploits like XiaoDash don't work on the newest firmware/hardware.

​Before I spend the money, is there any other way to unlock it, or is the new hardware truly "un-flashable"?

I want to DIY my own battery for G3. Any guide, tech specs,.. anywhere?

Hi.

I'm a new Max G3 E owner, and during my first ride, I rode on mostly flat surfaces, no wind, 95% of the time at 25 km/h (I have E version), with my weight up to 80kg. When I got home, my trip was ~32km, with 21% battery remaining. In theory, this is around 40km at 0%.

I was looking around about that external battery Segway is advertising, and I came across Sharkboy, who made his own 25 Ah with 21700 batteries. And I became intrigued.

I don't have a 3D printer for the case, so the best thing (I think) would be to buy a cheap battery pack from AliE, remove their (usually very bad) batteries, and replace them with a bulk buy from nkon nl or similar shop. (I'm from Europe.). These batteries are very cheap if you don't buy them at vape shops.

I also assume Chinese BMS (from AliE) from their battery can be either very good or crap, depending on the product.

Does a guide/tutorial to do something like this exist anywhere? Or maybe just a list of parts and maybe what to look for?

Since I'm new to the e scooter world, I don't know where I can get this kind of information. Are there forums, dedicated webpages, discord,...?

I'm a software dev, but I'm not unfamiliar with soldering, but additional info about this wouldn't hurt, if it's included in the guide.

What do you all think? Any help and pointers are appreciated.
