NIU - KQi1 Pro

I just purchased it and took it for it's first ride. It's my first scooter so I can't compare it to others but I am happy with it. It does come with a digital speedometer on it even though most everything out there says that it does not.

So which one did you go for??? Here’s my story… earlier today I placed an order for the NIU KQi1 Pro at CAD 279 (on sale). It seemed like a great deal, but since this afternoon, I’ve been reading on various forums that flat tires on this model can be a real hassle. Apparently, neither the tires nor the inner tubes are available in the market, and repairs could involve shipping it to NIU’s warehouse in Montreal, costing around CAD 140 each time 😞. This would be my son’s second e-scooter since May this year – the first one (a different brand) gave out with no after-sales support in Ontario. Now I’m second-guessing this choice and thinking maybe buying a refurbished model from a well-known brand might be the safer option. What do you all think? Should I cancel the order?

NIU KQi1 Pro - 1 week in https://reddit.com/r/ElectricScooters/comments/153c5ad/niu_kqi1_pro_1_week_in/ Note - I've been riding a G2 max for months. I still have the 1 pro for transit use cases. No issues.

The Kqi 100p or Segway G30lp (currently on sale) should be good for the eldest; the thumb throttle on the latter will be easier to use vs the twist on the Nui imo though. Both available on Amazon for $250 & $399. Segway’s kids models (C2 pro, can’t remember if they have another) for the 7y/o should be suitable.

If you’re only looking to do 6-8miles, maybe 10 at a push depending on speed/terrain, then this model will be fine for the 2 years (if looked after). If you’re expecting to ride further or continually at faster end speeds, then get the Kqi 2 Pro. Estimation of max mileage is tested using 50-60kg riders, mid speeds and on even surfaces. So typically suggest taking 1/3 off the max range to get a typical distance, maybe more if you’re a heavier rider or riding max speed/on hills etc. It’s this sale price cuz it’s been around for a while and Nui are releasing newer versions of other models and probably have lost of inventory (unsure if they’re guna update this base version though). Get any Nui from Amazon though, as mentioned by u/IronMew, CS will be much better.

I have NIU Kqi1 that was just about that much and it’s been great.

I’ve been rolling on a KQi 100p, I assume it’s the same app and I’ve had no problems with it.
