VSETT - 11+ Super 72V

I have a connective tissue disorder that causes me to have problems with my back and all my joints. My knees in particular are quite bad. I don't find pushing scooters from the handlebars to be very difficult, as long as said scooter is under 80lbs or so. My old vsett was very heavy and took more force to move, and it was definitely a problem walking it through buildings at times. That said, as someone with joint issues, I would strongly recommend getting a bike instead. With a scooter your nerve issues are more likely to be an issue. Gripping the handlebars with both hands is required, you can't safely go one-handed like with a bike. Being able to rest one side would surely be useful for you. It's also more physically involved than you may expect. You'll need to use your body for balance and control of the scooter. Your upper body and core will be doing a lot of the work, but you're also controlling your centre of gravity with your legs. I'm actually planning to switch to an ebike myself because of my physical issues. Riding a scooter for more than an hour or two causes me a lot of pain. I'm going to try installing a seat in the near future, but bikes are far more stable, and therefore safer, vs a scooter with a seat added

Sounds like a heavy user. In that case of course a dual motor scooter would be better, but that’s not everyone’s case. The Vsett in my flair peaks at about 1560w, which is pretty slow for my 220-230lbs frame, going about 8mph on the steepest hill around me. Meanwhile my girl who is about 100lbs less, that same hill isn’t an issue. Also not everyone wants to deal with the extra weight that comes with having two motors.

Well put it this way, besides the probably big weight and size difference, you can always power down the RS, can’t power up the phantom. I use my big ass Burn E as my everyday scooter. I tried using the Vsett I bought for my gf, but yeah the power isn’t there, plus she has the acceleration turned down a bit. Like 3/5. So I don’t feel comfortable getting a good lead in front of traffic. Of course when it’s gets up to speed it’s not issue. No customizable modes so I’d have to go in the p setting every time to change it. Sure, it’s easier to whip around… but that’s about it. I will lug my scooter everywhere because I can switch from granny mode to balls to the wall in two button presses, with my regular riding mode dead smack in the middle. 52v vs 72v is no joke. I’d go with the RS and call it a day. With all of that said, unless you’re dealing with stairs, the widest part on scooters is the handlebars, you can always put it on the lowest mode if you need to walk with it. Also: being able to adjust the ride height on the RS makes a huge difference. With the stem *and* the deck. Also also: had no idea the 52v phantom is just as heavy as my 72v burn e (102lbs), just about the same top speed as well. So weight is out the window

I’m rocking a size 14, but I also have humongous scooters. The Vsett is *just* enough at about 27 inches, most of it usable. So I’d say you’d want something with at least 27 inches of length. I’m also tall af so I definitely need leg room to have a good stance. But I guess it all depends on how long you’ll be on the scooter.

If you go for the low price scooters then that is what you will get. And it’s usually the battery that suffers on these scooters. Whatever you do buy from a reputable dealer like RevRides as they use good quality battery’s even the cheapest option will last you years. Don’t be the one a year from now stuck with replacing an expensive battery for your not so old scooter. I have purchased 5 new scooters all Vsetts and one Zero which is before they changed the name to Vsett all with the less expensive batteries and all working almost as new some as old as 4 years.

Nami, Niu and Inmotion yes. The others? Kind of a crapshoot as to whether or not you get a good one. Segway is expensive for what it is by a decent bit imo, with tons of QC issues, vsett has seen a lot of QC issues as well and Dualtron is just behind most other brands on the tech and specs at what is, again, a really overpriced scooter for what you get. This is all my opinion however so take it with a grain of salt.

For a two mile commute you have complete freedom to pick whatever scooter you want. Most people needing range generally have to go with something heavier for the battery and higher speeds to make the trip not as long. I have a Vsett and G2 Max but I would really love a NIU KQi Air for something ultra light that I would attach a sling to and carry over the shoulder into shops.
