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

There isn’t one. So many different scooters to fulfill the needs of the rider. For arguments sake, I’d say the Segway Max G3 and GT3 PRO are some of the most feature packed scooters out there. If I were in the market for an upgrade (mind u I really love my Burn E 2), I would get a GT3 Pro. I think it embodies everything a high powered electric scooter should have, while being stylish to boot. A close 3rd would be the Nami Klima. It’s damn near perfect (to me)

Maybe you can find a lightly used Nami Klima. I’m 6’5 235 and it pulls. It fits you as well without any risers. But if you don’t need crazy power for hills, you can get away with a Segway Max G3.

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.

i have a nami klima max since 2023 (3rd summer with it) and honestly its such a blast. its got good torque and acceleration on "c" and "x" modes plus you can also toggle a turbo mode. it goes about as fast as i would go with relatively good gear (non-moto) and is built like a tank. check it out, maybe even go for a burn-e if you feel like it wont be enough. i'm keeping this one its such a good city machine

Owner of a Klima Max here with 5000+ km driven. The P settings are completely explained in the owner manual and are easy to modify on the go once you know what each setting affects. The e braking is somewhat of a mixed bag amongst reviewers. Many say it’s too strong even on the lowest setting, but I really like it. Once you’re used to the brake levers, it’s super easy to modulate to you just engage the e brake to slow down and clamp down a bit more to come to a stop. Something I think you really got wrong is the comparison on the suspension. Nami is the undisputed king on comfort, so if you think the Kaabo was more comfortable I’d argue it was because the owner fidled with the preload and/or rebound to something not adapted to you.

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

Used Nami Klima max.

‘Hyperscooters’ aren’t just there because they go fast. The going fast bit is just a thing you’ll find in every high quality scooter with all the good stuff like suspension and big batteries because that’s how the market works.  Which is why EU regulations on scooters is just laughable. I got a Klima Max and rarely go above 20-25 mph. 

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.

Out of all the research my ADHD brain did for weeks... Nami Kima was by far the best of the best unless I went with a Burn-E You have Kaabo scooters but they've been known to have lots of issues. I went with an electric unicycle and am super happy. Much safer. I went from 25mph to 50mph, triple the range and most don't know how to ride it.

Nami scooters are the best. Get a Burn E 2

I saw someone mention Nami, and I completely agree. I love my Nami, and I love not having to connect an app even just to record my trip, or the miles of the scooter. You can just use the app to set the scooter up, and then never use it again. However… With my old NIU scooter, there were features that you just wouldn’t be able to use without the app. For example, the most important feature (to me) that I think blows that it requires the app. The electronic locking.. I would be able to hold the power button on the scooter for 5 seconds and it would lock the scooter so if anyone tried to move it the E-brake would engage, and it would start beeping. I used this in conjunction with a physical lock. But without your phone, you wouldn’t be able to unlock the scooter again. Some other more useless features that maybe you might care about would be scooter mileage, trip miles, or a battery percentage. Most low-end commuters don’t tell you the percentage on the screen, just bars or dots representing 10-20%. So if you want to know the specific percent, you have to use the app. I don’t know how much you care about any of those features, but it’s worth mentioning.

So I finally got my hands on this Super Stellar that I've been thinking about pulling the trigger on since mid March. There was so much research that was done in order to make sure I was getting the perfect scooter (for me.) Let me tell you... I did just that. After talking to other Nami owners through reddit and other groups, I kept getting the same two answers. Either I was told to pay the extra $400 to get the Klima, or to go for another scooter entirely. All because of the spring suspension and 9" tire combo, or that the "Klima is so much faster." I now know that clearly anyone who said that had never ridden a Super Stellar before. This is one of the smoothest scooters I have ridden despite the small tires. I will admit I have only ever owned a handful of NIU scooters from the KQi2 to the KQi3 Max. However, I have ridden a Klima before, and some other mid tier scooters like the L2 Max, Apollo Go, and the Ninebot Max G2. Although the Klima is "better" by definition, don't sell the super stellar short. For a scooter that is only 66lbs, this thing packs a hell of a punch. It's very powerful, it rides extremely smooth, and has a phenomenal range. Do NOT let the 9" tires or spring suspension deter you from choosing this scooter. This is the absolute perfect scooter for the person who has been riding a commuter style scooter for a year or two, and is looking for something that's still practical and portable, but carries the performance of a heavier, larger scooter. Alternatively, this is also an amazing first step into sport scooter territory offering tons of customization to allow yourself to grow into it. For someone who is riding a scooter with basic or no suspension and is looking to get their first dual motor scooter with a real premium riding experience, this is a top option. I just wanted to share my thoughts on this scooter as I'm absolutely in awe of how great this thing actually is, and that it deserves more attention than it gets. For those of you looking for something in this category I can HIGHLY recommend. Keep in mind I know there are scooters with similar performance for less money, but you wont get a premium quality scooter like you will with Nami. This scooter has the same build quality as the Klima in every way. Nami knows what they are doing and I personally think it's worth all $1,699 I spent. By the way, this is not sponsored in any way, I just wanted to share my honest opinion to those potentially looking for the same thing I was.

Yeah man, the Klima was just too big for me. The thing was 80lbs and I needed something that could easily be put in the back seat of my car. It’s probably too similar to the Klima to justify having both. But maybe a Burn-E and Super Stellar combo would be sick. Super Stellar for commutes and Burn-E for recreation.

I don’t think I’ve seen any direct comparisons tbh. It’s really fast though, like the acceleration isn’t up to par with the Klima, but the thing rips. I never have thought “wow I really wish I had more power” specially in turbo mode. I completely understand being addicted to speed and acceleration and not wanted to downgrade but this thing is a little beast. Its a “super commuter” if you will. I came from a KQi3 Max so it makes it even more crazy than it already is. I’m loving every second of this scooter and I’m itiching to get it out any second I have the chance.
