Ninebot Max range test 1 year later
Vložit
- čas přidán 1. 04. 2021
- Range testing my Ninebot Max after 1 year or ownership. My thought behind this is that after lots of use and abuse, the range should go down. But how much?
It was a really great day to take the scoot out before the weather goes downhill again.

Great video. I live in Miami and after watching some of your videos especially this one, I decided to order the Max. I can't wait. Thank you so much. I just subscribed. Keep up the great content and stay safe.
Welcome to the channel. You'll love your max. :)
Good update! Amazing range, 36 km after a year of use.
It was a little unusual to see the sidewalks and the roads to be a little worn-out.. But the suspension made it all well as well as the off-road terrain!
Thank you.
Yeah, unfortunately, our roads and side walks do get fairly rugged over here from time to time. I think that's why suspension is needed.
I subscribe, i enjoyed your video, absolutely amazing, i didn't get to enjoy the sunny day as i was at work but I'm happy to see your range test on such a lovely day
Hey thank you for watching. Great to have you with us :).
Sorry to hear you had to work. I’m now back to work
Thanks for a great Video. My scooter is coming this Saturday. I wanted to see how far it can go on a full charge. Good thing is where I live it’s mostly flat. Thanks have a good day.
I have myself own Ninebot Max over a year now with 4400 km mileage. I must say it's range is still great, especially when my flat rear tire was change and motor cleaned up. It was even better than new.
Nice video
This Kiwi finds it weird hearing someone use Miles and Celsius. Love how you go off-road with it..waiting to pick up mine and I'm a bit scared of breaking it. Good vids.
Haha yeah I was brought up in the transition between both units. But Celsius just makes sense for temp. And miles seems weird to most. I like that it seems less distance than KMs.
Just make sure to keep looking after it and checking it :).
@@ScootLetsGo That's interesting about the transition and Miles does sound better too, for some reason.
I previously had a cheap unbranded Scooter where it was powered in the front wheel and the stem (where all the wiring was) wasn't sturdy but it seems like this one can "Handle the Jandal" and your not the littlest guy so it gives some peace of mind. Cheers!
@Kaden Mekhi instablaster ;)
Very good ^^*
Thank you :)
Nice, stil got 34kms, (S mode?) its really nice, got my Ninebot on the Way and already orded sharkset front suspension too.
Great video! Have you done a speed test against a GPS device? I found that with my Max, the speedo says 30 km/h but it's actually only doing 27 km/h on the GPS. It seems like Segway exaggerated the speed by 10%.
Hey, thank you. I havn't yet done with a GPS device, I will look to see how acurate my phone can be. I just bought a new mount so I should be able to get a better reading there. :)
Any suggestions?
Also I believe most vehicles have a 10% margine both sides, they do it with cars too.
@@ScootLetsGo I just strap my GPS watch around the handlebars so I can see the GPS speed right next to the speedo. It's true that they do that with cars but the difference is when you buy a car they don't claim that it can reach a certain top speed. It was a bit disappointing at first but I put the gen2 motor in it yesterday and can get up to 35km/h on the GPS! Amazing upgrade. I highly recommend it.
Do you wear the face shield to keep bugs from hitting you? That’s smart!
Hi bud where about is this in the UK. Looked a great route. I'm from Leicestershire. Also how did you get rid of kick-start
Cheers
Hey, thanks :)
I'm in South Yorkshire, so we have the transpenine trail. So not far.
I have the push start set to 2km, but you can turn it off completely by flashing it. I just don't as I dont want to accidentally press the button when I'm standing still.
I got the front and back monogram v3 suspension installed on my ninebot max, first in New Zealand!
That's amazing. You got any pictures?
@@ScootLetsGo yeah! where could i send them to
@@ScootLetsGo by the way i sent the pics to your insta👌
Segway have about 300,000,000 charge cycles to perfect charging, charge that sucker after long ride battery will love it
Is it normal for your scooter to sound like maracas on the irregular terrain? Perhaps it is the suspension. I liked the video! I have a MAX recently and I am concerned about the wear and tear that is going to have over time
If you are going to ride it hard you need to expect it’s going to need. Ore maintenance. Do you have the rear suspension?
How do you find riding around in the UK. Ever been stopped? I am thinking of getting one for trips to work as it's a 6mile round trip. I would like to get one before any legislation comes in to legalise them and they sell out everywhere. Thinking of getting the gen 2
Hey
Did you drive on sport mode? How much more range it would have if you drive with drive and ecomode?
Thanks
I was in sport mode the whole time. :).
Maybe I will try eco at some point. I would say at least another 10 miles. Problem is I live in a very hilly area and I need to be in sport to get up the hills
I got the nine bot Mac and after 2 years the battery range is 11 miles
Where do I take these to get maintenance? A bike shop? I bought mine yesterday I love it
Depends on where you are. If you are in the UK for example. Some bike shops will do it. But I prefer to do this stuff myself if I can. Only need simple tools.
Give them a call to find out.
Lmao where... you do it yourself wanna be that lazy dont bother. You literally just got it. I have 1400 miles most I've done is lubricated it, filled tires, tightened few things due heavy offroad riding
Hey i have a question.. i also have the same Segway-Ninebot i had it for a year now the battery can only go up to 20km range why is that and should i change the battery?
You did mention your ESC version as 1.2.6 but what about your BMS? Is it 1.5.5 like mine ? Thx !
The version my scooter is using is 1.5.6 :)
I did buy today used Ninebot ES4 Rental version. The only bad thing is that it is not foldable so I have to try to find parts to it so I can change it in the future to foldable but do I even can do it or must I change almost all that is front and even where I stand? I have it now in charge so I can test one 4km part that I did use last year in a normal bicycle to go work. Software is upgraded to scooter and the phone app running now, I almost not get it to sync with the phone but couple cryings and finally it did par with phone :)
Great to hear you got a scoot. :)
As for rentals, I know that they dont fold, however, I#'m not too sure without looking what you must do to get it to fold. I would persume that you would need to change the stem entirely.
Where is your info on the regen?
I like that I almost never use the brakes in Max
I have the regen set to weak on my scooter.
I have my regen all the way up because to many intoxicated drivers. Gives me a better chance at stopping in time. They will look right at me and act like I'm not even their.
I wish they'd release a new gen version of it that comes with suspension rather than sourcing and modding the scooter, thus voiding warranty, etc.
I bought mine today installed with the shark set suspension straight from the store with 2 year waranty on it.
That will kill the fun out off it this scooters are like the Honda Civic parts every were even the oem frame from AliExpress for 150$ I still don’t know why are there soo many parts.
Do you have any info on the firmware versions, i.e. what change at each release?
Unfortunately, I do not have that information and looking around the net it's hard to find. But if you go on the scooter hacking discord channel, you maybe able to find that sort of thing out. scooterhack.in/discord
@@ScootLetsGo do you have latest firmware version? Do I need the latest version? Is it true that the latest version is not the best? I havent downloaded newest version yet since im not sure. And im talking about official ninebot app firmware. Not hacking . Thanks for the answer
Is this with the 48v battery and 500w motor as well?
With stock battery and motor.
What app are using for maps? Rdrive? Thanks
I use the relive app for tracking the route I did. You can make a little video at the end
do the suspensions work good? do you feel diffrence?
The suspesion helps big time :)
Got to love zombies lol.
I have a question, hopefully you can answer me. I've had the max for 4 months now and I'm starting to notice that steering the wheel is a bit easier compared to when I first got it. I thought it was the stem, maybe it had gotten a bit loose, but that's not the case. I just feel like it's easier to steer the wheel, like it's smoother down there where the wheel turns. Have you experienced the same? Do you know what can be wrong? Thank you in advance :)
Don't worry this is normal. As with anything, when it's new it has to wear in a little. Same with scooters. Just make sure to check your bolts periodically to make sure they are tight and get some thread locker.
My latch was so tight I had to really put some elbow grease in it to open it. Now it opens alot easier. So it's just from being new and tight.
Hi,
Is the sharkset front Suspension also good for not so heavy guys? I weigh 55kg but I can‘t find any Suspension that would fit for me.
This suspension would suit you no problem :)
Is it softer than the fork suspension from alibaba?
Yeah it is. With the soft springs on
Thanks.Which springs do you use, also the soft ones?
I use soft. It’s great for off-roading too
Did you add pneumatic tires or can you adjust the pressure of the stock tires? Thanks. For a 1.3 mile work commute.
What psi do u use for the tire pressure?
The guide says 37psi. But I run 50psi
im 85 kg. i have 65psi
Bought new Ninebot Max 30P and only have 45km range top :(
There are lots of factors that take place, such as rider weight, what mode, terrain and even weather.
please could you show how to flash to ninebot 30 maxand is there a way on Iphone yet ?
I covered those here czcams.com/video/1SH_KSeNntY/video.html czcams.com/video/qWHY1fWS3jY/video.html please note that you may not be able to use iPhone currently.
@@ScootLetsGo that’s great thank you
How many km do with sport mode full battery?
Just convert the miles into KM, :)
do you have latest firmware version? Do I need the latest version? Is it true that the latest version is not the best? I havent downloaded newest version yet since im not sure. And im talking about official ninebot app firmware. Not hacking . Thanks for the answer
I am running version 1.2.6 from the scooter hacking website. The new update does take some features away, but if you want to roll back a version, you can roll back by flashing it, not a problem.
@@ScootLetsGo
Thanks a lot.you've been very helpfull!
One more question. How do I download that 1.2.6 firmware that you have? It seems quite difficult . Thanks
I did a video recently here czcams.com/video/86WMbNzO9c0/video.html
@@ScootLetsGo
Thanks!
Just wanted to ask, how many days did it take for you to recieve shark set shocks absorbers?
I got mine within 7 days. But they are running slow with the number of orders they currently have at moment. Do you have a local dealer?
@@ScootLetsGo thank you for your response, I'm in Bedfordshire uk so i don't know of any dealer here, keep doing what video i watch all of them
Nice part of the Uk. :).
Thanks for watching. I’ll see what I can do
@@ScootLetsGo i bought my ninebot after watching your videos and I purchased my shark set because you said it was good so thank you
Thats great to hear. You’ll love it :).
Where do you live?! Why is the weather so wonderful there?!!!
I’m in the north of the UK. The weather was really nice that day. Gone cold since then
@@ScootLetsGo Wow, thanks for such quick response! Appreciate your videos! Hello from Ukraine 😁
Always try to respond when I get a min.
Welcome to the channel. Thanks for watching :)
After 30km/h speed hack, my ninebot goes max. 27km range after 1 year. However, I am 110kg man :-)
Suspension kills yoir range efficiency as it's absorbing all your horsepower over bumps as to it being stiff. Especially while off road
It’s a sacrifice you make for a smoother ride. :)
I owned these scooters they never get 40 miles not even on eco mode ninebot needs to label there products 25 mile range lmfao and stop ripping people off when they actually make a scooter that gets 40 there gonna want 3 k cash
Great video. I live in Miami and after watching some of your videos especially this one, I decided to order the Max. I can't wait. Thank you so much. I just subscribed. Keep up the great content and stay safe.
Thank you and welcome to the channel.
When does your scooter turn up?
Hello I live in Miami as well, how is it going with the scooter?, I am planning to get one to do about 10 miles a day, do you think is going to be OK? And last?
