It's just on sale for 999, most of the good colors sold out and back to normal price (Army Green color strong!). The US market for warranty is terrible unless you're buying through amazon. Etwow has always been an international seller with Uscooters as their US retailer. I hope they get back to you with warranty. I just picked one up on the US site. You actually have to unscrew the deck to initially power on the scooter (battery shipped disconnected). The wiring is extremely neat and all the components are individually sealed for water proofing. 100miles in and so far so good! Im 1 of 2 people on the subreddit that own the scooter, and I doubt many more will with the infux of inferior, cheaper brands like Ausom and Kukirin. Etwow has proven to me at least to make quality products. No stem snapping, bricked chargers, brake sensor issues, loose screws, quick battery degradation, burned controllers, etc... I hate to sound like a fanboy but if something works well in a sea of crap, ill sing its praise. These are the only 2 youtube videos that actually explain the scooter.

You know whats funny. You're looking at a 20lb difference between the vmax/segway and etwow, but the dimensions are 1.5inches longer than vmax and .5 inches shorter than segway. It's pretty compact and dense for being similar size. Tons of people have water damage on their kukirins. The Vmax looks nice, but unless they have some super efficient controllers I don't see 20miles comfortably with even the highest battery option at 876wh for "56 mile" version. Same thing can be said for segway unless you buy the external battery whenever that comes out for $300+. Purely going off your specs, you need a battery with 1000wh or higher. You can hit 20miles on the vmax if youre going half its potential the whole time. Nothing worse than getting a new scooter and find the range less than half its advertised because you dont weigh 130lbs and you're commute has hills, and you bought a single motor scooter instead of dual so it struggles a bit up the hill and that eats up tons of battery and puts strain on the motor and controller. I wish this market was more transparent with the average rider. Long story short, if you want 28 mph and 20+miles, with the segway and vmax you're gonna have to choose one, because you can't do both for long. The website has no tax and shipping, arrived in less than a week. I was truly shocked.

E TWOW tank torqued

The god awful named tank torque is a bit heavy approx 80 lbs. is on sale for about 1000 right now, folds, and has a huge high quality battery. It has hydraulic brakes, hydraulic dual suspension and 1000 watt dual motors , its top speed is 30 mph. It is the lightest scooter to have a supposed 80km range, it’s not your typical scooter. It might be worth checking out if you can try into in real life

r/ElectricScootersWhy NIU KQI Air so low rated when it is supposed to be just a lighter version of very highly rated KQI Pro 3?
5 months ago

Yes, but as far as I’m concerned, **weight is a spec**. You might not care about it, but it’s still a spec. If you buy a bike, you can easily pay twice as much just to save 1 kg, so I don’t see why it should be any different for a scooter. That’s why, in my opinion, it really deserves a super positive rating. Of course, someone else might prefer speed, power or other specs—but those can also be irrelevant depending on the use case. For example, what’s the point of extra power if you live in a country where the law limits you to 20 km/h, and in a flat city where there aren’t even any hills? The only Air real drawback, in my view, is that people who look for light weight usually also care about portability—for instance, if they take the train/metro and bring the scooter along. The Air is easy to carry, but in a crowded train it’s still bulky. Same thing if you go on holiday by car: it takes up a lot of space in the trunk. The situation could already improve a lot if they made a version with a foldable handlebar (that is very large). Let’s see what happens in version 2.

I actually own both the Air and an E-Twow. In every respect I find the Air better: comfort, safety, braking; plus it has a much stronger light which is really useful for riding at night, and the turn signals are a big help too. The E-Twow, however, has one huge drawback: the solid tires. Sure, they protect you from flats, but they slip on wet asphalt like a bar of soap. That said, the E-Twow does keep one real advantage: it’s much smaller (deck, wheels, but especially the foldable handlebar). Both are light enough to carry up to a third floor, so that’s not really an issue. But you really notice the size difference if you plan to use the train (or subway): you can put the E-Twow under a seat or in the luggage rack, while with the Air on a crowded subway… good luck. Same thing if you go to a restaurant – the E-Twow fits discreetly under a table. I’ve even taken it into places where scooters aren’t usually allowed, just by using its folding carrying bag: it looks like a sports bag, and nobody complains. Same story when traveling by car – the Air takes up the whole trunk. That’s why, after buying the Air, I didn’t sell the E-Twow. I use the Air 95% of the time, but that remaining 5% (when I need to take a train) I prefer the E-Twow… just hoping it doesn’t rain.

r/ElectricScootersLightweight scooters? Why is nobody talking about them?
4 months ago

I had an E-Twow and the first scooter they sent me suddenly stopped working. They sent me a second scoorer (brand new), and that one also began having electric issues. The customer service is horrible and outsourced from a village in India (you can hear the damn roosters in the background when speaking to them)! I do not recommend this scooter for rain as the airless rubber tires will skid when you break, and you will have an accident, guaranteed.

r/ElectricScootersWhat e-scooter did you use for over 1 year without one repair?
about 2 months ago

2 Glions. 10+ years without repairs or any consumables. Fluid Mosquito or E-TwoW. 4 years and 2000 miles without repairs or any consumables. Front tire needs replacing soon. Original brake pads still brand new.  Dualtron Victor. 5 years. Flats all the time. No other repairs. I primarily exclusively use regen brakes on all my scooters.

Same boat as you. I just made a post asking for alternatives to e-twow. I have had two of those and my only complaint is low traction with wet surface. Looks like niu kqi air would be a better option for wet surfaces even though its power and max speed are lower
