Review on Electric scooter Ninebot Kickscooter ES2, up to 100 kg, dark gray by Wiktor elazny ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The product is of good quality, there is only one minor defect.

Got pros: 1. Non-leakage design. All electronics are in the steering tube. Actually, this is one of the main reasons for buying just such a scooter. There is no moisture protection according to the IPXX standard here, forget about it, however, there is not much to seal here and all the dirt from under the wheels flies to the deck, in which there is no electronics. 2. Cast wheels. Initially, when buying, I thought that the scooter would be very tough, but it turned out not quite so. The wheels are very wide and not as hard as expected. For example, my old oxelo scooter with two excellent shock absorbers that really work, behaves almost harder on the pavement than this one. 3. Everything that has already been written as a plus: high-spirited, fast, without unnecessary wires, stylish. 4. The presence of 3 speeds. At the slowest speed, it is very convenient to drive on a bad road. Yes, and this is definitely a plus when there is a choice of how to go - sometimes you want to go slowly. Some cons: 1. The actual mileage is 15 km at most :( The weight of the rider is 73 kg. When I bought it, I thought that it would be at least 20, it didn’t happen. Don’t get fooled by the passport data, read the reviews! rotten speed, so maybe the passport is not lying so much. 2. The total mileage at the moment is 150 km. I look forward to the suspension problems that are described here by many. So far, everything is fine with the rear wing, but I have never used it for braking yet) I'm just very prudent) The rear shock absorber is already crunching, I feel it will be necessary to refine the scooter. 2. If the length of the rear wing was 3 centimeters longer, there would be no problems with splashes, otherwise you don’t really drive through puddles without refinement. Moreover, it's just wet asphalt without frank puddles after rain. Question to the manufacturers, what . ? 3. I don't like the throttle. It is very sharp and is made on the basis of a spring, which, when released, snaps it back to its original position. This is not the best solution for any scooter in principle, because it is not possible to keep the same speed, except for the maximum. The scooter moves forward during acceleration and the finger simply cannot be constantly kept at the same level. In general, you can only ride smoothly at Max speed, it's good that they can at least be switched. I don’t know how it is on other scooters, on this one the triggers are not the best solution. 4. It is still not convenient to carry (unassembled) due to its center of gravity shifted forward. Even without additional it is extremely difficult to carry batteries, especially up and down the stairs. In order to lower it down the stairs with one hand, you need to turn it back to front and get used to it well. The same goes for metro rides. In general, skill is needed here. And it will certainly be hard for the girls - if there are those who want to vilify it in an unfolded form with one hand :) But this is more likely not a drawback, but a feature - very successful from a different point of view - design.
