"It's also absolutely unbreakable ... I have it since 3 years, done ton of afters, street parties, beach parties, etc, with it. Saltwater, beers, dust, sand, falling on the ground, etc, nothing broke or deteriorated it the slightest, and I am a pro for breaking anything technological."
"will last you forever as they are absolute tanks"

"saucony peregrines i like alot ... usually can find good prices ... got a pair on amazon for 50 bucks that was the 13s which r their best year haha"
"Mine has already been making this summer way more bearable than the last. ... It's very worth it for the amount of comfort it affords. I appreciate being able to think about things besides how overheated I am on a warm day. ... Yeah the high summer temps are savage. I cannot operate like that. I'd happily pay hundreds a month to keep my apartment cool when it's 30+ out, at a cost of tens it's not even a question."
"This is exactly what we do too. No point blasting the hvac in the entire house when the only room we want really cold is the bedroom. Has saved us a lot on the energy bill!"

"the battery size (and therefore range) is about the max I’d want for a commuting scooter. ... Range is more than enough for me. ... realistically it’s about 20 miles at 19 mph and for this type of vehicle, that is more than enough. ... Scooters are really best for ~5-10 mile rides."
"The battery power lasts about 5-6 days for me (note that I use it a lot throughout the day), so I only bring in my scooter one night every week."
"I'm about 230lb dude, tall and the battery will last me about 26-27km when I use it on the fastest setting (race mode), but my commute is sonstant drive-stop-drive-stop and some hills."

"Also only waterproof scooter at this range. ... Tested? I’ve ridden in rain and snow and the scooter still running."
"Rode my 2 year old NIU Kqi2Pro in torrential rain yesterday. ... It dried overnight and rode it again this morning like nothing happened. ... The waterproof claim is legit"
"Been riding my kqi2 in the rain for 2 years. No errors yet."

"Good service/warranty ... got the province's service shop 15 min away"
"Also the warranty helped when the throttle broke and NIU fixed it for free."
"If you don’t want to tinker around and just want it to work with a 2 year warranty, go with NIU."

"We have the donkey which is a nightmare to transport"
"definitely not lightweight"
"It ’s a bit heavy if you try to lift it with one hand ... so I just roll it around instead and lift with two hands if I have to."

"But that and the evenflow have zero suspension - nearly launched her out hitting an uneven sidewalk one day."
"when I tried a friend's F2 Pro,on somewhat degraded roads, it felt like I was going to damage my spinal cord lol, lack of back suspension really shakes you like a tree."
"No suspension is up to personal preference in my opinion; it’s going to be less maintenance and less things to go wrong, but it can be a rough ride when hitting bumps in the road."

"And if you’re hitting an incline, it’ll drop you to an easy 10mph when max on sport mode is 18.5mph or so."
"At 190lbs, I had one for 2yrs and it did not take hills well"
"The hill totally stops my G30"
I have that scooter in my fleet too. It's light, handy, and cheap. I get it. Unfortunately, most budget scooters, including this model, list a max weight of 220lb, and their smaller frames are for people with smaller frames. If you can expand your budget another $100, you should be able to find a deal on something that better suits you. NIU KQi2 Pro would be a good option. It can be had for $299 on sale, but I feel like I've seen it as low as $250. It hauled my fat ass around really well until I upgraded last year.
r/ElectricScooters • How are big guys riding these things? ->RS6 ultra 2900. What I bought. Upgrading from a Nui Kqi
r/ElectricScooters • Advice on an electric scooter ->i looked into what you suggested and im going with the niu kqi2 tysm!
r/ElectricScooters • Best starter scooters for daily commutes? ->I just got a NIU KQi2 Pro and I couldn’t be happier. The thing is a tank and rides so smooth. I’m very happy with it.
r/ElectricScooters • I analyzed Reddit for the 20 most recommended electric scooters in the past year ->i dont think they sell it anymore but i bought a niu kqi2 pro for 300 dollars last year and ive put over 400 miles on it about a year
r/ElectricScooters • christmas electric scooter for 12 year olds ->I'm with the other guy that you're really never too old. There's a dude I see riding by in my neighborhood that looks to be in his mid-40s, and the person who I first heard mention the OneWheel is Adam Savage, who is 58 now. That aside, though, I went with a scooter over the OneWheel for practical and price reasons, and I've had mine for around 2 1/2 years now. Mine is a Niu KQi2 Pro. It has generally treated me very well, and I've gotten solid support for the couple of little issues I've had. For your use case, I'd probably step up to a higher end one for a bit more power and range. Also, depending on the quality of surfaces you'll be riding on, you might consider something with solid tires if you ride on very smooth surfaces or with suspension it you ride on very rough surfaces. The KQi2 Pro comes with air filled tires that dampen a bit of impact on the fairly rough concrete I ride on regularly, but it does not have suspension, so it's not necessarily ideal when I manage to catch a big bump.
r/electricvehicles • If you can fit an E-scooter in your EV it elevates the EV Ownership so much. +1 for Geocaching while charging ->As a fan of AliExpress since before Amazon sold more than just books, I still wouldn’t buy a rideable from there. You want some level of reliability and good reputation. For your budget, you’ré looking at Niu kqi or Inmotion products. Way less maintenance and better value than any ebike or diy kit. I use all the PEV’s and generally recommend an escooter for most people thinking they want an ebike. If they can get away with the range, escooter is way better value. For $1,000, you get a junky ebike but a pretty good scooter. Feel free to use my coupon code, Funcentric if you decide to go with an Inmotion product.
r/ElectricScooters • Does a budget electric scooter make more sense than a motorized bike? ->I currently have 660 miles on my NIU KQI 2 pro and I have had zero issues so far. I fill up my tires every few weeks and it's been a reliable scooter. The realistic range when not in eco mode is more like 12 miles. Although, the town I live in has lots of hills and I'm kind of fat.
r/ElectricScooters • Is niu a good scooter brand? I only see good reviews from segway and xiaomi but is this scooter worth a try? ->I got a kqi2 pro few years ago. Pretty much meets what your looking for. Would suggest looking for a second hand.
r/perth • Electric Scooter for Commuting in Perth- advice please. ->Between these two I'd go for the Niu without the slightest doubt. No scooter seller/importer/manufacturer is without its fair share of faults, but we know Ninebot and Niu as some of the most reliable. Just, buy from Amazon or some other large store so you can make use of their customer support if you have a problem. Youtube reviews are worthless; the vast majority are paid shills as they have a vested interest to push affiliate deals.
