Review on Electric scooter Xiaomi Mi Electric Scooter 1S, up to 100 kg, black, CN by Danuta Zygmund ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

One of the best deals, glad I bought this.

I got the 1S scooter after purchasing the Ninebot ES2 scooter. Due to a more comfortable deck, the Nineboat is more enjoyable to ride on smooth asphalt; even the cracks and individual pits of the Ninebot (which has a pneumatic wheel at the back) go better. With the same weight of scooters, Xiaomi has a quieter, gentler ride, and a longer range. On Xiaomi, the brakes are unquestionably better. I'm going to gradually soften the back of the scooter (either with suspension with Ali or 10-inch tires). The image displays how the head tube angle differs from the ES2's.

Pros
  • - Design simplicity; many issues with the m365 have been resolved (folding mechanism, tires); - Pneumatic wheels (possibility of puncture, although pressure can be altered in accordance with weight and type of coverage) - Range for a vehicle of this light weight (17 km in sport mode and 26 km in D mode at a rider weight of 70 kg). -Low steering wheel (for some people, this may be a drawback), but at 185 cm, it's more comfortable for me than the Xiaomi PRO -Disc brake mechanism allows for smooth deceleration (the brakes on my previous ES2 were a weak spot). -Smooth ride on level tiles (ES2 tiles were overcome at a slower speed)
Cons
  • -Uncomfortable deck, short and narrow for this steering column angle -High platform in relation to the ground (with the Ninebot ES2, it is easier to push with your foot, for instance, into a steep incline). -The steering column angle (sharper than Ninebot Max and ES2) makes it hard to ride together and generally inefficient use of deck length; if it indicates 30%, then there are really 5–10% left. - The scooter's rear shock absorber is insufficient (when compared to the ES2 with an additional pneumatic wheel attached). - When folded, it is bulkyThe ride quality is substantially better with low profile tires, such as those on an 8" high profile wheel. Without any issues, a compact disk and high-profile rubber could be installed on the back wheel. - The location of the charging port is awkward (and there is little splash protection). - Uncomfortable location of the footrest
