At first I wasn’t sure if I was going to need a steering damper or not. After taking it up to 42mph, I quickly realized I don’t need one haha. Definitely agree it’s super stable at speed. It’s my go to for rides after work to clear my mind. It’s great to hear your comparison to the Phantom V2. I almost pulled the trigger on the Phantom and City Pro in the past. Both times I had CC info entered, just needed to click purchase lol. Have you tried Ausom’s Leopard scooter yet?

My only concerns are reliability, but also safety for the battery and charging, i have seen way to manny recent battery fire and battery gas explosions on the internet... so i can wait until all the safety stuff are verified for at least 2 years from the first production of the core components like motors, battery pack, charger, and BMS.

@Narinjas that is a very fair point and a legit way to get good feedback on a new product like this scooter. That's one of the reasons i waited on my MAX G2, seeing how the feedback on the previous model the MAX G30 was like for people. 😎👌 good choice in waiting.

Don’t you mean, super Ausom? 😅

@Frostorm777 yes and you beat me to it hahahaha. 😁👊

is there anything for a good price that can go 22 plus miles on 1 charge ? and I dont mean the mile on paper, I meant actual real world miles..

Thanks! Just watched your review on the Leopard. Really nice! Looks like an excellent lighter weight option with more portability. The Gallop is definitely a beast. I was blown away by its ability to climb steep and rocky dirt roads.

Thank you!

That’s an awesome price for this scooter! It’s very capable both on and off the road. As for the tires, tubeless would have been nice. I will say they are pretty beefy tires and I haven’t had any issue with punctures so far after about 250 miles of riding on/off road out here in the desert. The primary advantage of this scooter over the Punk Rider is going to be the plush suspension, hydraulic disc brakes (for stopping power, not so much maintenance), and overall power/speed. The Punk Rider has an app to customize settings vs the on screen P-setting menu on the Gallop. It also has the self healing tubeless tires, higher IP rating, and regen brakes.

@@tomsgadgetgarage I appreciate the feedback! I’m out here in the Bay Area and looking for a commuter, so I wouldn’t be off-roading. Also, like the tech bros, I dig the cyber look, but can’t afford the truck! Lol

Haha! Yah in that case I’d go with the Punk Rider Pro. It’s lighter, has more tech, and sports the dedicated regen brake, which I love on the Apollo Go. It also look great as you said.

Thank you! I am checking with Geek Buying now. They pulled the codes right after thanksgiving and instead offered free shipping by default as well as a discount for purchases made with PayPal, Klarna, and credit cards. Here are the links from both Geek Buying and Amazon. affiliate.geekbuying.com/deeplink.php?affid=4754&url=www.geekbuying.com/item/Ausom-Gallop-Dual-1200W-Motor-Off-Road-Electric-Scooter-522523.html Amazon: amzn.to/3S6VdhB I’ll let you know when they get back to me. I personally ride mine a few times a week and plan on filming a long term review. So far no issues at all whatsoever.

So the brake buzzing sound is actually the electric/regen brakes. These can be dialed down to values as low as 20%. I’ve heard the same noise on other scooters. When you dial down the regen brake the buzzing sound dissipates.

Tom, thanks for your fast reply. Much appreciated. So are you saying that if I buy a Gallop, I need to make an adjustment to the braking system in order to eliminate the squeal? Or would I be ok out of the box? Thanks so much again.

No problem! So the good news here is the buzzing you hear is accentuated my the placement of my microphone when recording. Out of the box the brakes are fantastic. You shouldn’t need to make any adjustments. The disc brakes were silent for me out of the box. If you do want to reduce the intensity of the secondary electric brake, simply tap the function button three times to go the settings menu. From there single click the function button until you see Pb on the screen. Long press the function button for three seconds to adjust the value. Single click to toggle between values 1-5. 1=20% strength, 2=35%, 3=50%, 4=70%, 5=100%. Once you choose the settings, long press for 3 seconds or just wait 10 seconds or so for auto save.

Ah, that answers all my questions. Thanks again, Tom, you're the best.

Hello! So good news is that ausomstore.com does carry spare parts for both the Gallop and the Leopard. You can also find warranty and service information there.

Hey! Great question, I’m waiting on an official answer on the sinewave controllers. Will get back to you shortly. Tires should be relatively easy as the scooter has split rims. I’m actually considering swapping the tires out for street tires so may have a video on that.

Got confirmation that the Gallop has Sinewave controllers.

So you can double up on chargers (2x 2amp chargers). Not sure about a single 4amp charger though. I didn’t see anything in the manual or on the battery about max input amps.

Ugh, have you tried Geekbuying? Ausom is their brand. Looks like they are in stock here: affiliate.geekbuying.com/deeplink.php?affid=4754&url=www.geekbuying.com/item/Ausom-Gallop-Dual-1200W-Motor-Off-Road-Electric-Scooter-522523.html

@@tomsgadgetgarage I cannot, does not ship to Canada. I already tried.

Ah thats right. That sucks. I don’t see any on Amazon either. Did they give you an ETA on availability when you tried to checkout?

@@tomsgadgetgarage I actually messaged Ausom internally, wait and see.

Yah when I made the videos on the Gallop it was a brand new scooter and there wasn’t any info on it aside from Ausom’s website. After riding it around for a few weeks I was hooked. I’ve been riding around on it ever since. I just ordered some PMT street tires for since I ride mostly on road. We’ll see how they perform. The regen brake lever is definitely my favorite thing about Apollo scooters. My GO has it and I’m hooked. How’s the performance on your Phantom?

@@tomsgadgetgarage I’m satisfied performance wise. The no key or nfc reader is completely ridiculous.if I had a Gallup I might try to make a stem rack to hold a spare battery so I wouldn’t have to carry the weight of it.😀 both scoots same similar build wise like the top speed battery cap. Motor watts etc… if I ever did get another scoot it wouldn’t likely be an Apollo…hey maybe I could get a Gallup and use phantom motors and throttles, then I get better battery access and regen brake throttle!! Hmmmm 😂

You could make your own Franken scooter lol. Yah the battery is definitely heavy. When you mentioned putting it in a backpack, my back started to ache haha. When I put the road tires on I’m going to redo my range test on the Gallop. Stock hybrid tires are nice but they are pretty loud. I also prefer more rubber meeting the ground when riding around at higher speeds.

So this is similar to the RS5 as well as the Kukirin G3 Pro. I believe different brands use the same base with their own customizations/design elements.

Yah at that distance you’ll need to do some charging at work to get back home with most scooters. There are scooters that can achieve the round trip on one charge, but they cost significantly more. The Ausom Gallop is 88lbs, making quite difficult to lug around.

@@tomsgadgetgarage with the removable battery charging it won’t be an issue. I’m just afraid of not making the one way

​@YOUNOTSMART if it was me I would get an electric bike if your gonna be going that far everyday.. Especially if it rains a lot where you are at.. I have both and I ride my segway gt2 all seasons but winter.

@@igot5onit423 I’ve given up the pursuit of electric scooters. Crashed n burned. Put me out of work for three weeks!

​@igot5onit423 Recommendations on an electric bike? I own a Solar EQ scooter, and it's build quality is trash, as is their customer service. Standing for hours gets old fast 😂.

Similar styling. It’s my understanding that many scooter companies source their scooters from Titan Group/Unicool. The Ausom Gallop, VSETT 10, Roadrunner RS5, Kukirin G3 Pro, and more are similar in appearance with some brand specific changes to styling, components, etc.

@@tomsgadgetgarage does it say what cells they are using on the battery pack label?

Says Cell: INR18650 and pack is made by Ryder Electronics

Haha! Yah, it’s was strange at first, but it’s grown on me 😂
