I feel like you didnt give the Varla Eagle One the props it deserves. It has dual 1000w motors, eco and turbo mode, single and dual drive, it has a key ignition to start it for security, it has dual piston zoom hydraulic brakes that are phenomenal, brake lights, and a headlight and running lights at night, it folds down, has several deck designs to choose from, you can get an extra charger or off road wheels as a free gift which it has 2 charger ports and can be charged in half the time with 2 connected, and it is very stable at high speed. Its 52 volts so it does have alot more power than most, will easily do 40 mph which is pretty scary to do without protective gear, and 3 speeds. If you arent going top speed the whole time you can get alot more than 40 miles out of it. It definitely beats the scooter you chose for best distance in every category. The build quality alone is head and shoulders better.

E-move cruiser is the best. Horn, turn signals, brake lights, I cruise at 28 ish miles per hour. I’m 200 pounds and the battery lasts forever. I’ve rode it 30 miles before with a lot of battery left. I bought a Dualtron Victor and it’s fun and hauls but for 1300 more than the E-Move it constantly has fluctuating battery issues and tires never stay inflated. E-Move way more stable of a scooter and dependable.

Hello mate you need to change the xiamoi section about the folding mechanism, the hook on the bell is supposed to clip onto the clip on the mud guard that way you can carry it like a “briefcase”

@khanrides Жыл бұрын

I have an Emove cruiser with 4500 miles on it and I can confidently say that it’s the best single motor scooter you can buy right now. The only downside is like you said that parts get loose easily but this isn’t a big deal if you’re a handyman and are good at making repairs. Loctite and regular checkups (every 50 miles) will ensure a stable feeling scooter. However, The real world range is definitely not 63 miles, it’s actually about 50 miles on flat ground going 20 mph. If you go 15mph on flat ground infrequent stops, you may hit 60 miles. Unrelated to the cruiser, it’s important to note that the small budget scooters you showed all have under 20 miles of range. Manufactures will often exaggerate the range and casual consumers who aren’t very familiar with the escooter community will assume the manufacturers are telling the truth. If you want to know the real range of these scooters, highly recommend checking out the electric scooter guide channel, they are the pros.

So many of the top 10 lists I see are all recommending Chinese based brands it's strange for a mainly US based audience. Would love to see more hands on testing with the US based brands like Unagi and Levy, and even Taur from the EU. Segway and Niu are nice but for most people here it's not really a great option since it's near impossible to get support.
