Xiaomi - M365

I'm still on OG Xiaomi M365. Sometimes you find that there is no need for an upgrade.

My original m365 still rolling. I've rebuilt it a bit, but not because things broke just because I wanted more battery power etc :P Its still a favorite of mine for those jump on and go errands.

After 5 years i still have the xiaomi m365 (idk if that's the correct name) working great almost 1000 kilometers, had to change the front tire once and had to fix the back part cause that version didnt have the support part yet, 25km/h max speed i get an average of 20 km of range, isnt that safe to ride on slippery surfaces when it rains, but overall great scooter for getting from point a to b, it was less than 400 euros new in 2019

I still have my Xiaomi M365, still going strong, great little scooter. Arent they part of Segway? This always confuses me, because even on my old Xiaomi I see ninebot stamped on some parts, so assumed they at least share the same factory or owned by same parent company and parts share

Hi all, I'm looking to buy a cheap scooter with solid tires. My experience: I previously had the M365 and did \~600 miles with it. My commute back then was 5 miles each way and I was generally satisfied with it. However I got many flat tires was painful (had to walk) and costly (much harder to DIY compared to bicycle tires, and I was spending about $50 each time to get them replaced. Then Covid came and I no longer had to do that commute, and decided to sell it. I now need to do a much shorter commute, roughly 2.5 miles each way. I am aware about the cons of solid tires, but the road is relatively smooth and I'm willing to trade some comfort for not having to go through the hassle/costs of fixing tires. For reference, I looked at this Widoway scooter which has solid tires and costs about $120 [https://www.amazon.com/Electric-19-21Miles-Commuter-Escooter-Portable/dp/B0DFYZRV8F](https://www.amazon.com/Electric-19-21Miles-Commuter-Escooter-Portable/dp/B0DFYZRV8F) Of course in general you get what you pay for, and I have never heard about that brand. I'm willing to spend a bit more (maybe $200) if there's a more reputable brand that fits my requirements. I also saw this Roinside scooter at $190 seems to have better reviews but haven't heard this brand either [https://www.amazon.com/Electric-Scooter-Long-Range-Commuting-Foldable/dp/B0DNHXC7DY](https://www.amazon.com/Electric-Scooter-Long-Range-Commuting-Foldable/dp/B0DNHXC7DY) Any recommendations?

Yes I was using slime a lot on the M365 but even that didn't hold after some point. Changing even the back tire without the motor in the way was impossible for me. Even the bike shop struggled to change it, the tire is much harder to change compared to a bike unless you are an expert. Yes the tire and/or the tube might only cost a few dollars but changing it ultimately requires a professional, and labor costs here in the US are crazy.

My m365 was less than that all upgrades included and rides like a dream (40kph) For city use, these are completely fine
