VMAX - V1 SPRO

Just returned a Segway G2 Max for a Maxshot V1SPRO 10”. It’s 80% of the G2 for less than 1/2 the cost. Suspension nearly as plush as the G2, slower acceleration but still acceptable, and can do light off-roading (mowed grass) like the G2 but at 1/2 the speed. It’s also 20+ lbs less. My only disappointment so far is it’s not IPX (water resistant) rated.

Just got the Maxshot V1 sport with the suspension for 225$ off Amazon and it rides smooth...

I have the Maxshot Pro. It has dual suspension. I never tried it in grass though. It’s 240. Gets me to work and back just fine.

Here’s my take on the Maxshot V1 Sportscooter. 7.8Ah, no suspension) “I Bought The Best Selling Electric Scooter on Amazon for $199 - and tested it!” https://youtu.be/d9q9aGY7nV0

Anyone hear any feedback on the Zaprun 1000W. It’s on Amazon for $539 and looks like a really good deal. I bought a Maxshot V1 Max for $350. It’s actually a pretty decent scooter but also struggles on the steeper hills by my apartment.

I am a scooter rider and it really depends on your budget. It is highly recommended to get a scooter from a reputable brand and that come with some basic safety features like a turn signals and a proper rear facing light. Although they can be somewhat expensive, its very much worth the extra dollar, so you can stay safe while having the freedom of micro mobility. For my recommendations: NIU, VMAX, Segway have really good scooters. Avoid the cheap ones that don't have the safety features. They have decent range and have a built in gps locator, so even if someone steals it, you can find it. However, I would not worry about theft because gradguard will cover it. Other reputable brands include Gotrax and Apollo. Both are pretty good, but I don't have much experience with Gotrax. Apollo, on the otherhand, is also a great brand if you can stomach the cost. However, before you set your eyes on an escooter. Range anxiety is a real issue. The reported ranges and top speeds are the brands testing under very good conditions and very light riders and often times on the slowest setting. They are not accurate most of the time. Do not buy from non reputable brands. I do not want to see someone's dorm or house burning down because they bought a cheap scooter from a random company. I also recommend to buy a full face helmet, knee pads, and gloves even on entry level scooters. PLEASE, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD. ADHERE TO TRAFFIC LAWS. YOUR NOT A PEDESTRIAN WHEN YOU STEP FOOT ON THAT SCOOTER OR BIKE. I see too many people on campus not adhering to basic traffic laws on both scooters and bikes. Also watch how to properly ride a scooter and make sure to practice on the weekends. Although I am currently injured from falling off my own scooter (broken arm because I was being an idiot and tried to do a trick on it). If you want I can still teach you how to ride a scooter. Just privately message me about the time and date and I'll let you know if I can. Edit: I went through the gradguard policy again, they will not cover anything motorized, so invest in a good lock.

That's incorrect. I've posted about my fender clip falling off mid ride and being told it's a wear and tear part. They're dead to me.

VMAX are the equivalent of sleeper cars, they look basic but man they have power I own one and have over 2k miles on it

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
