Based on 1 year's data from Feb 15, 2026 How it works
I make sure my scooter choice is one that accepts a ulock. I'm using the ninebot F2 plus. The frame has a nice spot to put the ulock through. But if I'm planning to leave it unattended for an extended period, I take my pushbike instead.
voy a la universidad con uno 20 km diarios, solo lo recomendaria si tienes ciclovia en tu ruta (sino mejor ve por una moto pequeña) no requieren mucho mantenimiento y sobre las llantas compra uno con llantas antipinchazos, hasta ahora no se me pinchan. tengo un ninebot f2 plus por 6 meses y es un 10/10 si no quieres chocar con alguien o caerte te recomiendo que 1. compres una bocina cargable porque todos los scooters vienen con un timbre ridiculo que no se oye, una bocina ruidosa ayuda mucho a que te vean 2. siempre ten las dos manos en el volante, nunca sueltes una mano, son vehiculos inestables que requieren mantener el equilibrio 3. ve rapido cuando este libre, ve lento en cruces o donde haya gente para que puedas frenar a tiempo (siempre hay gente que les gusta caminar en la ciclovia)
Rent wise (bird, uber, lime) they’re probably all the same. Long term, buying a scooter was such a great investment for getting around campus without a car. I personally use a Segway Ninebot (F2) scooter.
I literally traded in my F2 for a Max G2 yesterday. HUGE improvement!! Way more pickup speed and it’s smooth. I was bumping everywhere on the F2
Solid advice on the Ninebot - I've had my G30 for like 2 years and it's been bulletproof, just heavy as hell to carry around. The F2 series is way more portable if you need to lug it up stairs or whatever
Stay away from the Ninebot "Segway" F2. It has no shock absorbing at all. Your spine will thank me.
I have a ninebot F-SE(F2) and have been enjoying it until my vmax arrives. It has held up to constant riding daily for a few weeks now and I'm 170lbs. Love this little scooter, and will keep using it even after my new one arrives. This thing is super light and can be carried through a store.
I got a Segway Ninebot F2p off Facebook for 250 a while back. But it was an unusual find, as it only had like 22 miles on it
I can also vouch for ninebot. I have an f2 that I have absolutely ridden like I stole it. Great scooter for the price
I have an f2 and a E kick from ninebot. I do believe you're paying a little bit for the ninebot name, but from my experience it's worth it. I picked up an F2 that had only been rode 4 times by the previous owner for $200 (a steal) on marketplace. The build quality is definitely there, I absolutely love the f2. It's not even in the same league as my new vmax, yet I still use it for trips I can't bring the max inside or if it's rough riding. I'm 170 and ride the scooters like I stole them. Our Gotrax is also solid reliability wise, as my 8 yrs old nephew hasn't destroyed it yet, despite trying his hardest lol
I have a ninebot and they are very solid for the price. Ignore anyone saying they are overpriced. No on the Apollo Go. I have a VMAX V2 Hub and I absolutely love it. Extended range, it's a monster
I have the Segway F2 and this thing is a tank. 300 miles in and she has been a loyal buddy to me. It has traction control for slippery weather, apple findmy so you can locate the scooter and a bunch of other cool shit in the app. It goes 19 MPH and that is FANTASTIC! Make sure to wear HELMET!!!!
Had a few for our teens. Xiaomi Elite Max goes for ages and doesn't go fast - perfect for someone getting to school and back etc. Eldest now has an F2 and really good. Invest in a decent D-Lock with code - kids never remember keys and scooters are stolen in seconds but haven't had one stolen with a dlock. Best of luck!
Can't help you about reviews, but I *can* tell you - from the tech specs and from user reports here - that E-series Ninebots below the E3 Pro aren't actually very good. They have weak powertrains and tiny ranges and they'll choke on any uphill; personally I'd avoid them all. The E3 Pro specifically is the only one with a half-decent powertrain; I'd imagine that's why people have more things to say about it. I *would* choose a Xiaomi 5 before any E-series, but I'd choose a Ninebot F3, cheaper F2, or even the older G30 before the Xiaomi 5.
It depends on how much DIY work you're comfortable doing. If you're at ease with wrenches and soldering irons, then you can get whatever cheapie is sold in your department store and probably be happy with it (though I'd still recommend avoid solid tires for reasons explained here: http://reddit.com/r/electricscooters/wiki/solidtires). I'd avoid the Aliexpress bottom-of-the-barrel stuff; they're typically exactly the same as department store cheapies, but battery quality is a complete unknown and they have very little liability. At least if you buy from Target or something you can bring it back to them if it croaks. If you do *not* want to put in any work, then get a Ninebot E3 Pro or F3. The older G30 and F2 are also excellent options.
