Just ordered mine. Cant wait to get it. Question though, what quadlock mount is that? I was looking at getting one but want to make sure i get the right size.

Definitely need suspension on a scooter, and more power so here's to hoping Niu will offer a carbon version with dual motors, full suspension at around 30lbs.
@Cool-ng5rhАй бұрын
It does not have self repair wheels and the software is rather buggy - hope, they will fix the software - but it is real light

Every commuter wants that, not needs that! Carbon fiber and magnesium is quite brittle and around the neck area, any form of bumps, nudging (which is inevitable if locked on bike racks) or even vibrations will weaken it over time and before one knows it, it will collapse! Not to mention, single, 350w motor with no suspension whatsoever gives it not just a rougher ride but also inferior power and acceleration compared to cheaper and more powerful but still lightweight, 40-pound scooters like the Apollo Air 2023 and Segway F2 Pro. Anyone able-bodied should be able to comfortably lift 40 pounds for a short distance and up a flight of stairs! Being 15 pounds lighter does make a difference but only for better convenience, sacrificing every other attribute including the most important which is reliability! Thus, I'd prefer something traditional yet more compact for commuters such as the Apollo Go which has a much smaller profile than the Niu KQI Air, twice the power, dual suspension and much tougher build quality with IP66 rating at just $100 more!

You're right, should have said something like things that are nice to have on a commuter and things I wish it had. Thanks for the comment

Riding the newest apollo city myself, I can also say that apollo at least listens to the riders, which is great, because then we actually get what we want in a scooter. So basically i agree with you :) But it's nice that they focus on lightweight too, my GF for example can't lift 40 pounds comfortably, so this would be amazing for her, IF it was cheaper and had a drum brake instead of disc :p

I like this scooter for the reasons you mentioned. Bought it for my wife. *For myself, I’d like to see these do at least 22 mph like the NIU Max. Hopefully a software update, but not holding my breath on that !

@a.nevillechamberlain7612Ай бұрын
@@ElectricRevolutionthe major reason I’m not jumping on this, was the top end speed needs to be around 25ish for a all around commuter scooter, avoiding situations by going around and doing it quickly enough is safer than just doing a 20 mph . Maybe a dual motor at around 35 lbs is the future iteration. Or 1500 watts 27 mph single motor, like the VMAX is using

Just 2 problems with this scooter. 1: It's got a disc brake.. My experience with riding scooters every day for a few years now, tell me that disc brakes brake REALLY quickly,, and in my country no one wanna repair them. So.. you're left with trash. (I tried to repair my old scooter, but it only lasted for 1-2 weeks before the disc brake broke AGAIN.. So go with drum brakes for your own safety's sake..) 2: 1000 usd for no suspension? It's amazing how lightweight it is, but it's too expensive.. Go to like 600 usd and I would say, it's worth it, but I would always be scared of ANY scooter not having drum brakes.

Interesting, most would prefer disc brakes, surprised you're having a hard time
