The wires always burn and the rear fender + break is going to die also the handle bar screw can break on its own. The lock ob gandle bar also breaks fast. all of this happended on 3 models of mine. g30 ii aswell. At the tume of release it was still the best but the g2 way way more polished
Maybe you guys dont live around lots of hills or weight less. But on my g30 ii i noticed the wire burning only after opening it because i had to replace the fender. I aint making this up its just my personal expierence. All my scooter have more than 10k km on them.
24% incline is proper steep, that'll kill most single motor scooters. The G2 Max is decent but for that kind of climb you really want dual motors with proper torque
Might be worth looking at something like a Vsett 9+ or if budget's tight, the Ninebot Max G30 can actually handle steep hills surprisingly well for a single motor. Just depends what you're willing to spend really
That hill's gonna drain battery fast regardless of what you get, but at least with 2.6km total you won't need massive range
It is a good scooter, but I don’t think it’s very good as a “first scooter” because of its power. I think the g30 or g2 would be a good first scooter, as it was the same for me
I took the advice of this sub and bought the Segway max g3. Had one little hiccup with the chirping non-stop thing but once that was resolved it’s been solid. So much so I sold my motorcycle and am using it as my sole transportation.
For the most part this scooter does everything I need it to do. I do miss the speed of my motorcycle in some situations and it got me thinking about looking into hyper scooters.i don’t know if such a machine exists but if i could buy something that gets 30 miles of range while cruising at 50mph i think it would be the perfect solution.
I’m 235lbs with gear. All my terrain is super flat. I pretty much cruise my max g3 at 28mph and the speed only drops as the battery level goes down. 30 miles at 40 or 45 would be ok with me honestly.
Yeah I’m realizing that if you want big range and big speed it comes with big weight. I do have stairs at work that I carry my Max G3 up but that’s only because I charge at my desk if I have a lot of running around to do. If I can get 30+ miles of range I won’t need to charge at my desk and I can just park it where I used to park my motorcycle at work. Our office is like a compound so it would be safe from theft.
Thanks for the detailed response. My apartment is single story so the weight isn’t an issue. My office is upstairs at work but I would just park the scooter in the shady area of our yard. It’s gate access only. Not saying it can’t be stolen but the likelihood of it happening is extremely slim. Honestly I over shot what I really need thinking if something existed that can do what I was asking then 40-45mph would easily be doable at 30+ miles. I’m going to watch some videos and reviews tonight when I get home. Thanks again!
Man that’s sad! What made me open my eyes to the importance of a helmet was a young teen died in my old neighborhood falling out of the bed of a truck. They weren’t going fast at all but they were being wild teens and clowning around. I think the speed was like 15mph. I know truck beds are higher than motorcycles but I’m betting his height wasn’t much higher than we are standing on our scooters.
Thank you! Now I need to see if such an animal exists. It’s looking like I’m asking for something that doesn’t exist. I guess at 50mph I wouldn’t be averaging 50mph. Right now my max speed is 28mph and it’s not like I’m doing that the whole time. I wouldn’t be doing 50mph the whole time either.
You make a good point. I wouldn’t be going 50mph non stop. There are traffic lights and stop signs. I guess what I’m looking at is something that isn’t maxed out at 50mph but can comfortably do 50 mph. I threw the 30 mile range because I don’t want to fully drain my batteries. Realistically I would be doing 20 miles total at speeds maxing at 50mph. Sounds like that’s not really something that exists.
Honestly I understand where you’re coming from. As a life long motorcycle rider it’s hard to not get pulled back in that direction. Scooters are nice because you can bring them indoors to store and charge. I sold my motorcycle because I live too close to work. The short commute didn’t allow for the engine to ever warm up. I don’t really ride for recreation so it didn’t makes sense to keep it. Electric motorcycles sound good but not being able to bring it into my apartment kinda kills that idea.
Everywhere I go is within 10 mile radius of my apartment but for the most part I only do 10 miles round trip. Grocery store is less than a mile. My office is 4 miles. My girlfriend’s house is 9 miles. The max G3 has been getting the job done but I find I have to charge a lot if I want to do a lot of running around. Like if I ride home for lunch it’s 16 miles for the day. I have to charge at work before I leave so I don’t completely drain the battery. Plus the speeds drop a ton as the battery level drops.
