General Does anyone actually use high speeds?

16 Upvotes

I was originally considering buying a 30mph Segway Ninebot model, but ended up getting a 15mph E2 model because I found one marked half off.
This is my first e-scooter, and I normally bike.
Even going at only 15mph, it feels wildly unstable unless I’m on perfectly fresh asphalt, and the tiniest crack can mess me up.
Going 30mph would have to be suicidal.
Does anyone actually use those speeds?

Got this scooter a week ago and the left wheel started to make noise just to notice that the rim is out. I asked someone to inflate it as I thought it was the issue. Nothing changed still same issue. Does the tire need replacement?

Tech Support Title: Aovowheel / Aovo Pro losing top speed, stiff braking, and stuttering motor noise. Water damage

Thumbnail

4 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I need some help diagnosing my Aovo electric scooter (500W version). I’ve had it for less than a year.

The Symptoms:

Context: It was recently caught in extremely heavy rain. However, I also leave it parked outside at work with no cameras. I usually lock it via the Aovo Bluetooth/Wifi app. I have a sneaky suspicion someone might have messed with it or tried to force it while the electronic lock was engaged, but it could just be water damage to the controller.

(Attached are pictures of the dash and a video of the motor sound).

Does this sound like I fried a phase wire/controller from the rain, or is it a hall sensor issue? Can I fix this cheaply, or should I cut my losses and upgrade to an e-bike?

Its fine if you guys don't know :<

I recently bought a Gyroor C1 Pro and noticed that the front fender is misaligned. One side has plenty of clearance, but the other side is almost touching the tire. I also hear a rubbing/vibrating noise when riding at higher speeds.

I've attached photos showing the uneven clearance and how the fender is mounted.

Thank you

The 2026 GT2 has replaced my car for short trips around town. Running errands and evening cruises are way more fun on this scooter. It absorbs small bumps nicely and stays stable at cruising speeds. I'm really happy with this purchase.😁

General The ninebot G30 is it really that outdated?

Post image
3 Upvotes

People see the g30 as really outdated but I've never felt it, someone told me why would i mod a g30 it has no suspension it's too old, I recently flashed my g30 with shfw i never realized what it was capable of and that I've completely missed out on many things now I basically have a launch mode for fun activated by throttle code, I finally got back idle battery level and got rid of the beeps.

Then there's durability I've been in accidents that weren't my fault one of which I drove straight into a cardoor at full speed the guy was impressed that nothing happened to the scooter, I've had countless of situations where I've transported 30 kg of weight on it without anything, I've seen so many people post about their scooters just snapping, mine has over 6000 km on it I trust it, i trust it to take me where I need to go.

So I wonder is it really outdated as it doesn't feel outdated to me it's extremely smooth to drive even without suspension, I've avoided suspension as I'm afraid it will make it weaker or too heavy or that it simply can't handle carrying things, it's fully open to hundreds of modifications both hardware and software a new scooter is completely locked down my g30d is basically Linux ooen source, it's so durable that I don't trust anything else, my favorite 2 scooters are gt2 and Apollo pro both of which have been discontinued but i just don't feel the urge to upgrade even if g3 looks interesting in design, my g30d is reliable it's fast enough 30 is the best speed for a scooter it doesn't need more speed than that it's range is really good at 40 km after 6 years, weight is good enough to easily carry up stairs.

The g30 to me simply has everything I need but design so what makes it too old because I just can't feel it i don't know what a g3 really could give me apart from better range and a better design.

I love my ninebot g30d which makes upgrading from it difficult.

Buying advice Question about my first e scooter

3 Upvotes

I'm looking for advice or recommendations from people with experience buying their first electric scooter.

First of all, I'm a big guy, almost 2 metres tall and weighing 110 kg, and I'm aware that this limits my options. I need a sturdy, high-quality, and reliable model that can get me to work and back, with a one-way commute of around 7 km.

I'll need to charge the battery in my apartment, so a lighter model would be preferable.

My budget is up to €1,000.

Requirements:

  • Maximum load capacity ideally over 130 kg
  • As long a battery range as possible
  • As lightweight as possible, since I'll need to carry it up to the third floor of my building. -Must be legal in EU (im living in Austria)

Tech Support Which tuning method is the best for the Segway F3 D?

• Upvotes

I'm soon gonna buy a Segway F3 D but I am not sure how I'm supposted to tune it. Since the scooter is new it's on it's latest software and now i've heard that you can't tune now per SHU but you can still turn of the peeping of the scooter when it's not activated with the Segway App (I'm trying to avoid the official app because of it's automatic software updates). Thats why I wanted to tune it with a us controller, my friends told me it will work but Gemini said its not possible anymore and you can't bulid it in anymore. The third option is the one im trying to avoid, that code you pay like 70€ for is pretty expenisve. Not I'm not sure which method I should use...

I want to tune it because in my Region only 20km/h.

(I only drive on private property so it's legal).

Bought a Navee st3 and I may be regretting my choice. I weigh 240 lbs and I think I bottom out the rear suspension. When riding I hear the plastic from the rear wheel cover hit the back deck. Can the rear wheel cover be adjusted so it’s not touching while riding? I almost wish I got the gt5 or g5 max instead. Other than this issue I love the scooter. I truly thought I was going to be fine being 20lbs under the limit.

Tech Support Balancing new tires

2 Upvotes

I just swapped new Ulip road tires for the off road tires that came with my Nanrobot ls7+

I got some wheel weights and tried to balance the new Ulip tires. But I can’t quite seem to get them to not shake at certain speeds.

The method I’m using is I put the scooter on a lift so the tires are off the ground. I stick the first weight across from the valve stem, I hit the throttle, and see if it shakes more or less. I then move the weight in one direction until I get it feeling as good as I can.

But it s seems that after a couple of rides it shakes more than it did when I did the balancing. But nothing has changed that I can see.

Any ideasss?

My phone was stolen earlier today and since I enabled my scooter's guard mode on the segway app I can't seem to use my scooter anymore. I've managed to carry it back home but I really need to be able to use it again so I can drive to college again.

Does anyone have any idea on how to disable the scooter's guard mode without having to use the app?

Buying advice Scooter between 20-30 Lbs, under $300-700 recs

2 Upvotes

Looking to buy a lightweight city cruiser type. I understand from some research that lightweight )20-30 lbs) sually means no suspension so it’ll prob be a bumpier ride but that’s fine because I’d have to carry it up and down the stairs a few times a day. I’d preferably love something under $350 because I know maybe I won’t use it as much as I think but I would like to try it out. But knowing me I like sleek designs so maybe I can wait for a discount til Black Friday so most I’m willing to spend is $700 MAX. Front and back lights are important to me as well because I will be on it during night time as well.
Digital lock would also be nice IF POSSIBLE

I was thinking o
-metro American
-GoTrax XR Advance
- YADEA S1 LITE
- RAZOR E PRIME III
- HIGHBOY S2 lite

PSA: I live in miami so I don’t need anything for crazy terrain it’s mostly flat with some bumpy roads

OPEN TO ALL AND EVERY PIECE OF ADVICE , recommendations and things to consider. Thank you

Cutout

[] When cutout, the red symbol popped up, (the one that looks like something got cut in half). Does someone know what the error icon is, and what is the possible problem with the scooter?

[] Information:
- Teverun Fighter 11+ cutout 4 times during 1700km. The first time a few hundred km on the odometer, and 3 more recently.
- I was not going at 83km/h; the display bugged out a bit. Most of the cutouts happened at around 10-20km/h. Were I in car traffic, cutout would've endangered me.
