Pro4-2 is a better scooter in every aspect except moddability. > not change it for the next 5 years With a 2yo used scooter this means you really expect it to last 7 years, which is very unlikely to happen without some major work at some point.

pro 4 2nd gen all the way for what you want. the extra 60€ is worth it when you're planning to keep it for 5 years, plus the range is way better which you said is most important. pro 4 handles offroad better too with the bigger wheels and suspension if you're gonna unlock it to 35kmh anyway the pro 4 will feel more stable at those speeds. pro 2 gets sketchy when you push it hard. there motor is also more powerful so hills won't kill your range as much

I don't know how to experience my feelings.But basically, because the motor is in the front, when you press the accelerator you feel it imadeatly and when taking turns it feels off? Dual motors aren't a problem but if its a single motor I like rear motor ones more My experience was a ninebot e2 my friend had versus my mi pro4 gen2 excluding power it felt odd to ride

The thing is, having a second mechanical break would mean that it would be on the motor wheel, and it is much more complicated to build. It is feasible, many scooters have 2 mechanical brakes, but for obvious reasons more expensive, and let's be honest the Xiaomi 5 is a rather cheap scooter for its build quality and overall performances. I have one since may, and did already more than 1600km with it, overall I'm really happy with it. I owned the 4 pro 1 gen and 2nd generation before, basically the 4 pro 2nd gen was exactly the same as the 5, without front suspension and with a more powerful motor (400w/1000w, instead of 350w/700w), I have to admit that I miss that 400W of power sometimes, but nothing crucial. Overall the 5 is the best scooter of those 3 models (4 pro 1st gen, 4 pro 2nd gen, and 5) by far. For cruise control and a better speed there's a lot of tutorials on YouTube where it is explained how to "hack" your electric scooter 5 / 5 pro / 5 max, all you need is a PC, a USB>Serial adapter and the right socket to plug in your scooter. Also a little bit of patience. I tried on mine and it now has cruise control, 29km/h max speed, and it also starts to accelerate with only a slight push, at >1km/h instead of 5km/h. No issue, it works great, the autonomy is impacted of course if you drive above 25km/h. I think the reason why you have such a good range (40km), is simply because you can't drive faster than 20km/h, but that is only because of your local regulations (...are you in Germany or Switzerland by any chance ?). Overall that's a great scooter, hack it and you'll be totally satisfied!

You don’t have to justify your weight, friend, lots of bigger people ride scooters. My bf is about your weight and he gets around fine on my Xiaomi Pro 4, and Segway g4 max. But with that budget you can get something a bit more powerful. Just remember the bigger battery and motor size the better, those are the two major things you should cross shop. Also at least 10 inch tires will last longer and be easier to balance.

They don't have the same battery, the latest 4 pro and 5 pro have a bigger battery, personally I do on average 38-40 kms and I always have 20% left (less when it's cold

I had a Wide Wheel Pro and use to patrol grass lots. XIOMI 4Pro is very reliable and well built. 👏
