General Just got my first scooter

Post image

After browsing the sub for a week or so, making a post to ask for advice and reviewing the options given to me, Ive opted for the Segway Max G2. I just opened it, set it up and gave it the first test rides. As of now, I am very happy with my purchase. I spent $883 for the scooter (Best buy had it for $799 for Labor Day Sale instead of $1399), and a Hover 1 Helmet with a detachable visor (was on sale for only $10) so overall I feel like it is a good deal to pay $880 for a scooter that would otherwise be double in price. The suspension feels really good, the app is very intuitive and its honestly a blast. Thank you to everyone who took the time to write back on my post. Ill update in a few months and tell you all if I am still as satisfied with my purchase.

I get flamed by knockoff clone riders all the time for saying this, but the “three Ns” are the by far the best entry-level scooter brands on the market: Ninebot, NIU and Navee.

FYI, Ninenot is owned by Segway and Xiaomi owns 70% of Segway, and guess what, Navee is also mostly owned by Xiaomi.

It's basically all Xiaomi sub brands other than NIU

Xiaomi isn’t a knockoff tho lmao it’s one of the best pioneer brands out there

I understand very well. Xiaomi is a fantastic company. As long as what you buy is actually from them or their sub brands and not a knock off
