    Refurb ninebot f30 and f40a from same seller also look like good deals!

    • Clear on 08/03/2023 - 22:01

      Considering they get sent back to the Segway factory for refurbishment they'd be good refurbs.

    • Jamie777 on 08/03/2023 - 22:18

      Refurb is way better than used one on the 2nd hand market as refurb one got battery tested and replaced if needed.

        Yep totally agree! Hopefully decent refurb from Segway themselves and also has 12 months warranty.

    • metalvalour on 09/03/2023 - 12:52

      How do they compare with the deal posted? In terms of the scooter quality.. I don't know too much about them a quick google doesn't seem to produce very good results or comparisons hahah.
      I'm just wanting it for short commutes, but happy to pay more if there is a quality difference

      • frogduck on 09/03/2023 - 16:51

        I haven't tried the Xiaomi but in terms of brand they're both popular brands. I chose the f40 over the Xiaomi because of higher range and slightly larger tyres for hopefully a more comfortable ride (and cheaper, but noting refurbished).

        If I didn't want the range the f30 would have been fine (I'm in a reasonably flat area so wouldn't make much difference)

    Has anyone tried this eBay scooter?

      I was also wondering this

    • frogduck on 08/03/2023 - 23:26

      Looks like a generic copy of the branded scooters. I'd be wary given recent increase in battery fires.

      I'm not saying it's bad but no brand generally means no warranty / less quality control.

      Be Aware of FAKE Scooter, check the feedback please!

      Considering it's knocking off the Xiaomi M365 design that's hilarious. Ontop of what frogduck has said I've seen plenty of generics around reddit having their stems snapping so I'd be cautious of going for something generic.

    Wonder if there will be any sales on an apollo ghost

    • Clear on 09/03/2023 - 00:14

      You won't find those on eBay as Electric Kicks seem to be the main supplier.The Apollo Ghost is a modified Unicool VDM-10 so there are others based around the VDM-10 for cheaper/more.

      Dragon Raptor is closer to stock and cheaper at $1799. I'd recommend the $2199 Pro for bigger range. Carbon Oxy is close to stock too with better Nutt brakes. Then there's the Bolzzen Gladiator that's been customised more than all of them.

      • Ronerrlaw on 09/03/2023 - 00:15

        Thank you for your help, very much appreciated.

        • Clear on 09/03/2023 - 00:16

          Basically depending on how you ride expect about 30km from the 52V/18Ah batteries and 40-50km from the 52V/23Ah variants.

          • Ronerrlaw on 09/03/2023 - 19:42

            @Clear: Out of curisoty, would you happen to know what mods does the bolzzen have to the VDM-10 base?

            • Clear on 09/03/2023 - 20:36
              +1

              @Ronerrlaw: Quite a few differences as you can see visually. They have the base 52V/18.2Ah model and the 60V/21Ah model delivering more power/battery. Physically you get a tougher stem that's height adjustable and long straight handlebars.

              They released a gen 2 as seen here offering better headlights (since VDM-10 stock lights are crap), an easy fold up mechanism like the Apollo, more powerful motors, thumb throttle and a centre display. Unfortunately this model has a major fault so they pulled it.

              If you were really on a budget however the Dragon Slayer is a good option. It's identical to the Bolzzen Commando except for colours and branding. Bolzzen discontinued theirs because they were charging $1899 for 48V/22Ah, while BSC are charging $1599 for 48V/22Ah and $1899 for 48V/26Ah.

    I don't understand why they keep making these things with front drive and rear brake. it should be the other way round. weight transfers to the back when accelerating (esp on hills) and we all know what happens if you slam on the rear wheel brake when you need to stop quickly. tokyo doriftu!

    • Clear on 09/03/2023 - 00:18

      For beginners having a front motor is a lot better than a rear motor. You'll definitely spin out more easily with a rear motor. Less good for hills as you say though.

      • eggboi on 09/03/2023 - 00:22

        I mean these things aren't overpowered sportscars. I don't think i've ever seen a fwd e-bike. even if they exist, they are few and far between. all the hire scooters in brisbane are rwd - but those things are deadly because the brakes simply don't get maintained at all.

    • RobBoss on 09/03/2023 - 09:12

      slamming on a front bike whilst going 30 km/h isn't fun either. The risk of people getting thrown forward is much greater than your scenario. This is why you should always apply the rear brake first before the front when cycling. Similar physics and logic also apply to single-brake scooters.

    • 32154532 on 09/03/2023 - 09:42

      These e-escooters have front regenerative braking and rear disk brake. The brake lever activates both at the same time. I've had one for two years and I think the braking system is fine, probably better than a traditional bike because its much harder to 'go over the handlebars' on a scooter due to lower center of gravity.

      • eggboi on 09/03/2023 - 10:27

        Yeah true, when you’re experienced you instinctively crouch and lean back when braking hard, but lots of folks using these are just looking for simple. Panic-braking is def safer if you’re not liable to catapult yourself.

    c'mon VIC/NSW. dont nanny my scooter riding desire. i see other people indulging but if I tried it I know id be booked within 50m

      Half the kids in my suburban neighbourhood yeet themselves down the wrong side of the road on these things with no helmet on. I've never seen any police presence.

      Probably a different story in the city but in the burbs, you'll be fine.

  • artxty on 09/03/2023 - 10:46

    How much is the fine if you get caught riding this in VIC?

    • Clear on 09/03/2023 - 10:50

      You can find them listed here under Offences. Typically 1 penalty unit which is $185. NSW Police are significantly worse than Vicpol.

        I live in coastal VIC, these scooters are everywhere. No one is fined, which is causing kids (especially) to just think there's no rules at all. I always see them without helmets, carrying friends, on their phones, riding all over the road and footpaths, etc. The community is worried as we know a death is inevitable.

        IMO the Police simply don't care because e scooter riders are only really a danger to themselves, if you're breaking the law and badly injured it's on you. Deal with it. How so many parents allow their kids to ride them around this way just boggles my mind. Watch them blame everyone else but themselves when the inevitable happens.

      Not easily. Even if you were 80kg it would still be abit if a struggle

    • R00D on 09/03/2023 - 21:18

      Get a push bike and go up said hills instead, you'll likely lose some of that 100kg while you're at it.
