I have the G3 but sadly the EU motor even unlocked with 4.2 bar tire pressure (which it quickly loses in the rear anyway lol) doesn't even reach 40kmh - fully charged. And obviously goes down from there. Hill performance is pretty good until you get to a really steep part where it gets slower and slower and after a few seconds or at a certain steepness just gives up completely. Longer ride performance can also suffer a bit I think, but nothing like with hills. Range is fine but could be a bit better, I mean the 50% bigger GT3 battery would perfectly fit plug and play! Really don't understand why they're too greedy to put that one in the G3. Same with hydraulic brakes which somehow even the GT3 doesn't have. I think if you swap it to that GT3 battery along with the external battery pack battery can be great though. Although even then it would be abt. 1200Wh, not even close the 2100Wh of the GT3 Pro, which along with all the other upgrades is why I'm considering getting it, especially the brakes! Because on my G3 they completely rusted and locked after like 2k km (have 3600 now) and still don't fully return all the way on their own causing my levers to be floppy for the first few mm and sometimes activate the digital brakes and remove any gas when I hit a bump etc. unless I manually push them back! Also my tires wobble, rear light is broken, a side reflector broke off, number plate completely broke off randomly without me noticing, brakes take a lot of force to full stop and the last 10m it feels they give up and don't give any more braking power not matter how hard I press, there's no kickstand to put my foot on except the flimsy unsprung plastic cover, the front light is really difficult to tighten to a position and have it stay there (now matter how much force I use on that shitty tiny screw it always comes loose after a few hundred km at best), rear tire loses a lot of air compared to the regular loss of the front one etc. I mean overall I'm happy with it, I just don't understand how it can have that many issues. Unnecessary software limitations aside. I think I'd miss the locking fold though, but luckily don't really need to haul it up any stairs. Maybe at the train station, although that thing is kind of its own train anyway so I don't think I'd need it a lot đ which is why I think it's the perfect upgrade for my use case. Mostly roads/city and a bit of offroad (mostly gravel)
I got it as my first scooter and I love it. I started off slow and I capped the speed.
The one in the picture I included. The Segway max g3. I read up on scooters for the past month. What won me over on this one was just how good it is as an all around âgood for most anybodyâ. The way the battery has all kinds of circuit and other protections (battery fires worry me) how safe it is and tested it is. The app thatâs included is just so good. The suspension is buttery smooth. I can drive right off a curb and barely even notice it. Traction control. Good top speed. Etc. I took it around like 3 separate times to ride it yesterday. Once at night. The underglow lights and headlight make it easy to ride at night and be seen. Would recommend if itâs in your budget
Yep! Thatâs exactly it. Me and my wife drove around the parking lot of our apartments where thereâs a bunch of speed bumps and it handled really nice. The suspensions conforms to fit the bumps so you donât feel them much. Whereas some of these cheaper scooters donât have that so itâs really jarring going over bumps on those.
I ordered from Apollo 10 days ago and they have taken my funds and ghosted me so I recommend that you stay away from them. I got frustrated and went to BestBuy and purchased the Segway Max G3 and am happy with it so far. (new owner of 4 days) Fast charging and good distance for my weight (lets just say over 200lbs). I average 35 to 40km round trips and have some battery to spare.
Donât listen to these people who say Segway isnât the best, because all they care about is top speed. Segway has the best build quality to price ratio and they are the largest company for a reason. For the price the max G3 is the best. If all you care about is speed then sure you can find faster for the price. But good luck after a few years.
THE BEST ALL AROUND SCOOTER IS A SEGWAY MAX G3. Donât listen to all the other comments everyone just loves what they have or hates what they donât. There is a reason Segway is number 1 and for the price the max g3 is a great scooter and you canât beat it. Good suspension, perfect speed for a beginner and reliable. One day when you get used to it and want something heavy duty and long range you can look into the GT3 pro.
From a G3 owner I'm genuinely curious why so? I haven't rode the ZT3
G3 max is good as well but too heavy for me. 45kmh is not doable with the f3 pro but personally for me I feel not to safe over 30kmh https://escooter.blog/ninebot-segway/ninbot-f3-tuning-ohne-chip-fuer-die-ganze-f-serie/ https://de.aliexpress.com/item/1005009381534604.html?_randl_currency=EUR&_randl_shipto=DE&src=google&pdp_npi=4%40dis!EUR!77.98!47.57!!!!!%40!12000051687609683!ppc!!!&src=google&albch=shopping&acnt=272-267-0231&isdl=y&slnk=&plac=&mtctp=&albbt=Google_7_shopping&aff_platform=google&aff_short_key=UneMJZVf&gclsrc=aw.ds&&albagn=888888&&ds_e_adid=726717691648&ds_e_matchtype=search&ds_e_device=m&ds_e_network=g&ds_e_product_group_id=296303633664&ds_e_product_id=de1005009381534604&ds_e_product_merchant_id=691614764&ds_e_product_country=DE&ds_e_product_language=de&ds_e_product_channel=online&ds_e_product_store_id=&ds_url_v=2&albcp=22054759359&albag=172828878419&isSmbAutoCall=false&needSmbHouyi=false&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=22054759359&gbraid=0AAAAAoukdWMxBY_Cbl_J1uIBnbxPrF8xB&gclid=Cj0KCQiA5abIBhCaARIsAM3-zFUNftQWG-LYsrFkBbKV0fiwkHu0huVef27mNiokm1I50g24IpOtiPgaAlqwEALw_wcB Youâll need the f3d edition !
Go all out. I got my Max g3 and in a week got my nami burn e2 max. I love both of them
It is a good scooter, but I donât think itâs very good as a âfirst scooterâ because of its power. I think the g30 or g2 would be a good first scooter, as it was the same for me
