Nami Electric - Klima Max

Random but instead of turning right on 132nd, you could turn left and make a right on Willow and take a nice protected bidirectional bike lane to Bruckner, which has another dope bidirectional bike lane straight to 149th. The S1F is pretty cool, I just worry about that IP 54 rating, especially that downhill section next to the fdny training facility on the island. When it rains bad, that area floods horribly. You can ride up under the RFK to get around. Just thought I should let you know. I can’t think of something off the top with at least a ip55 rating at your budget, but you may want to add some diy waterproofing measures. Me personally, I’d recommend a Nami Klima, but it’s overkill. https://preview.redd.it/18e855xmblfe1.jpeg?width=1179&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a5647711792427711c3dd3b1a99de1e8185c1f92

So we’re talking 20mi round trip? Can you ride chill or are you keeping up with traffic? 10 miles on a scooter can be rough sometimes. I do 28 round trip if I’m visiting family. I would suggest the Nami Klima since you have a nice budget. The max version for more battery. If you want bigger tires, the Nami Burn E 2 is nice. But it’s huge. Emove cruiser 2.0 is pretty good as well. Great water resistance. They haven’t been really tested out by the community, but the new Segway Max G3 and GT3 are feature packed. (And now feature 11inch tires instead of 10) I also like the Apollo City Pro, but I don’t like Apollo as a company. If you give us a little more data to work with (max speed, suspension, water resistance, weight etc), we can dial down the many options for you. But from what you list from being used to a car, you want quality and comfort.

I can tell you right now, if you’re really going that far in one charge, the range will NOT be the only thing that matters. More so if you have a stand up scooter. You’re gonna want some decent suspension as well. I do 28 round trip when visiting fam and boooy my knees feels it more than my feet. I second the RS5 Max, The Nami Klima (I have a Nami Burn E 2 with 5ah more battery and I *easily* get 30+ 25mph and under) The Klima Max (better battery) will almost match the Burn E in range (~360wh difference)

I originally wanted the Klima and literally entered in my card details, it voided out because I couldn’t have it sent to a non business NYC address because of laws and fraud protection (different address sent to vs my billing) So I took it as a sign and got the Burn E 2. The Klima is basically a smaller version of the base Burn E 2 with a 60v battery and 10 inch wheels. By that I mean it’s a serious comfortable long range powerhouse. I also liked it because I was looking for a scooter that had an open space to fit a nice lock on the frame, and it caught my attention because I liked the design and lack of RGB everywhere. The RS5 Max is faster and has a better battery than the base Klima, but it’s a 52v scooter meaning you’ll get less watt hours than a 60v with the same or a little less battery. With that being said, the rs5 max uses a battery that doesn’t drop voltage as much as a more generic battery (like in the base Klima). You’ll need the Klima Max for that kinda of battery. Since range is the upmost important to you, I thought I’d share that

I can't stand how most reviewers will say next to nothing about the controllers / throttle feel, etc. especially because the throttle feel on most scooters is garbage with a few exceptions. I did get a chance to ride 2 different Blade GT 2's and I don't like the throttle control on them. It feels like you're picking a speed with the throttle, and the controller is deciding how much power it wants to give you. Not very predictable. On the other hand, I have an Apollo, and I've ridden a Nami Klima max. Both scooters have excellent throttle control, especially the Apollo. The Nami had a bit of deadzone on the throttle lever, but felt quite predictable after that. Both scooters can be "walked", the Apollo a little better than the Nami. That is, the Apollo, even in the highest power setting, can be made to go a walking speed with light throttle application. For comparison, the slowest I could get the blade to move was like 15 kph, except in the dedicated walk mode which is useless for actual riding. The reason it's important to me is that I deal with a lot of loose surfaces and even ice sometimes. I literally couldn't use the blade in some cases where the Apollo is second nature.

My first scooter was a NIU kqi 3 Pro last year. I Than ipicked up myself a Nami Klima Max less than 6 months later . Haha can't wait to ride it

I have the Klima One (single motor) version. I don’t really live in a hilly city but I’m sure it would do just fine tackling hills, as I haven’t really seen it struggle with anything. Top speed is roughly 60KMH and it’s insanely good and comfortable. Honestly, I’d probably choose it over the Super Stellar as it has larger tires and hydraulic suspension. If you can though I’d spend the extra cash and go for the dual motor Klima. It’s an amazing machine.

The most scooter for the money that I could find was the teverun blade gt2. 5400w peak output from dualtron controllers 52mph, kke shocks, 26ah for $1800 or 35ah for 2200. The nami klima is a great option as well, but it isn't as fast, and the 30ah version isnt in stock, so I went with the teverun. Over 800 miles, and I'm super happy with the quality.

Can't go wrong with the klima, but the extra 5 amp hours on the blade is substantial and they are the same price.

At least if you buy a used teverun, you dont have to check to see if it has the neck that snaps off while you're riding it 🤷‍♂️. The namis didn't seem like a step up when I tried them out, I don't get the hype. But I guess everyone has their own preference.

I can get close to 70km (43 miles) on my Nami Klima on one charge, 180 lbs guy here, on mostly flat surface at 25-32 kph (15-20 mph). The Klima is fun and comfortable to ride too.

You have to drive slowly, like 25 km/h (in my area, that's the legal limit) and take it easy when accelerating. But that's really the range limit as the battery runs out. If you add hills, forget it. Usually, I can do a 45-50 km ride without worrying too much about the terrain and riding at 30-35 km/h.

If I was you I’d go with the Nami klima for short range the smaller battery model would work However having a bigger battery is always preferable as is the name Brand cells over the generics I’ve owned many scooters I currently own 6 two of them being Nami’s one has just over 5,000 miles the burn e max has over 10,000 miles on it neither has had any problems the other reason that I’d go with the klima aside from ride quality build quality performance . Is with any other. Scooter of something should go wrong with it and the Retailer is out of the part that you need you may be left waiting weeks to months for them to get the part back in stock With the Nami’s you can contact the owner of Nami Micheal Sha directly and have him ship the part to you and have it in less than four days I have other. Friends who own Nami’s they beat on theirs so they break things and need parts they have gone through Sha for parts he can be reached on Nami electric Facebook . If I had one word to describe Nami’s it would be phenomenal. Do be careful go slow at first put it in the D mode and leave it there for the first few hundred miles find a church parking lot to go practice riding in churches are good as their lots are. Empty most Of The time . Also get a full faced motorcycle helmet hard knuckled motorcycle gloves knee and elbow pads are a good idea as is a rechargeable front read light set that You can Set to Flashing a bright yellow flaggers vest . Is a good idea as well have fun stay safe anyways just my .02 cents

Nami, Niu and Inmotion yes. The others? Kind of a crapshoot as to whether or not you get a good one. Segway is expensive for what it is by a decent bit imo, with tons of QC issues, vsett has seen a lot of QC issues as well and Dualtron is just behind most other brands on the tech and specs at what is, again, a really overpriced scooter for what you get. This is all my opinion however so take it with a grain of salt.

NAMI 💗
