Review on Electric scooter Ninebot KickScooter Max G30P, up to 100 kg, black by Agata Bachanek ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

One of the best deals, glad I bought this.

Haven't bought yet, just tried it. Of course, if not for the price, I would consider replacing my old m365 with the first real alternative to it. A very significant technical redesign, the main complaints have been eliminated, I see only the rear-wheel drive as a certain minus when driving, which is also a big technical plus (the power supply of the motor-wheel has the shortest path from the power source, there is no ugly and interfering cable sticking out, through the outlet of which water can penetrate into the housing to the electronics). With rear-wheel drive, not only the driving style changes, who has a bad idea, imagine whether you are pulling or pushing a cart with a load: when you pull, it is much more convenient to control it, it keeps the track more stable, it is easier to overcome bumps and obstacles than pushing forward. Drum brake: I removed the brake disc on the m365, because the brake, when low to the road, constantly throws mud, sand creaks on the pads, and it brakes too sharply. Engine braking is enough, more gently. Only the lazy did not write about the addition knot and its lock, the flat hook is pressed with force by the thrust wound onto the eccentric of the addition axis, or the axis bursts over time, or the thrust or hook breaks, plus over time there is a creak in the addition knot when the enamel crumbles, if do not take immediate action (for four years, I only recently had an axle finally burst, but this does not lead to an accident; there are no problems with the rest, the creak was removed with gaskets), this has been eliminated here. The battery here should be no worse than in the m365, but it has an excellent one. These are the pros and cons that are obvious with a cursory acquaintance and experience with electric scooters, the rest will be shown by the operation if I decide to change the iron horse. If you have the necessary amount and are thinking about buying a city scooter for commuting, shopping or walking (for which the m365 is great, there were no alternatives to it before KickScooter Max), then this electric scooter is a good choice.

Pros
  • Significantly redesigned model of the popular Xiaomi m365, from the same Segway manufacturer; Reliable fastening of the addition unit with a "frog" lock, one of the main problems of the m365 has been eliminated; The footrest has been moved forward, closer to the steering column, like a "tilt lever"; The shape of the deck has been changed, more optimal: durable, less dirt sticks, the angle of attachment of the footrest is set; The wheel motor has been moved back, its power has been improved and there is no cable sticking out in front, through the input of which water could penetrate to the electronics; The lantern is more optimally placed, the lighting is better and it is more difficult to damage it; Closed drum brake of the front wheel, in contrast to the constantly muddy disc brake; Ten inch wheels!, the dream of many m365 owners who use spacers to install them; Many less obvious positive solutions, in addition to the main recognized advantages of the "parent" m365.
Cons
  • High price, you can buy two m365; For the sake of design, there are again no rear wing supports and, although it is reinforced, it will still hit the wheel and may burst during extreme riding; Plus, rear-wheel drive is also a minus, worse handling and maneuverability, worse overcoming bumps and obstacles, more likely to skid; Heavy, compared to the m365 (19 kg versus 12 kg), Xiaomi is easy to carry without folding it behind the counter with one hand.
