For a kid the best choice is an e3 pro from Segway. Has suspension so they won’t fall if they hit a crack in the road. If you want to spend a little more I’d recommend the F3. Even better suspension which will be safer
German with F3 pro here. IHMO that’s the sweet spot e Scooter for most people. Wouldn’t buy the e3 pro personally because you can’t tune it easily
The Segway is not heavier indeed it’s lighter. Personally I own the e3 pro and I am very happy with the scooter
If you can get a good deal or discount next year, segway e3 pro is a great campus commuter.
Good choice but might be hard to find under $500 even with BF deals - usually runs closer to $600. For your weight and distance though it'd be perfect, super portable too
Just purchased a Segway E3 Pro. Don’t expect it to be in this list as it’s only a couple months released but… is this an upgrade from the G30P/LP? Looks to be feature wise but I’ve found it hard to not second guess myself. Doesn’t help they’re the same price right now.
I got the E3 Pro for $400 a few weeks ago at Sams
E3 without a doubt
Segway G3 max if you want something solid, reliable, with good features. People will recommend cheaper brands but the problem is the polish really isn't there, and they have genuine durability issues. I own a dualtron. It's fast yes, but it's very noisy and rickety. I recommend Segway the most. The max g3 is my current daily. the ZT3 pro got some good reviews the F3 is well equipped for the price The e3 pro is unbeatable for the price. I recommend spending as much as you *can* spend reasonably. Scooters are the absolute best between 1000-2500$. Beyond 2500 isn't worth it. Under 1000 is a gamble but Segway has options. Also note: Please, when you get one, charge it ALL the way, then eide until it's COMPLETELY dead, for the first 3 times. I've had cells flat multiple times because they sit in the store warehouses so long. After that you should be able to use it however you like. What happens is it'll show it's charged way before it actually is, and will seem to die absurdly fast.
I don't recommend the g2 max over the newer models, the e3 pro is a better option if you can. But the g2 max isn't bad per day, it's just old and lacks a lot of features. I'll say this. Don't rush to try and buy an electric scooter. These things are expensive and it's best you save up until you can afford a better one.
I just got the E3 Pro from BB a week ago. Really enjoying it a lot. Packed with features. But the range isn’t very long. Trips gotta be under 15 miles.
