Omg looks AMAZING!!! EXACTLY what an ActionKid needs in NYC!
I like all of your scooter rides, whether you are reviewing a scooter or riding for fun . Thanks for sharing your views.
Good to know you got another sponsored video, and we get to see another e-scooter review! đ The GoTrax G5 looks sturdy, and I like the blue lights on the side of the deck. It handled the rough road surfaces well, and good to know the brakes work. đ Good job with always picking scenic backgrounds to feature your e-scooters. đ Thank you for sharing this e-scooter review and ride, AK! đ€đŽ
Thanks ActionKid!
I normally wouldn't watch a whole video that's basically an ad for something.
But I've had an inkling to get a scooter like this to put in my car or carry on the subway to ride to that "last block" to my destination.
Much appreciated! The "last mile" of a commute can be the trickiest and most challenging.
I like how quiet itâs and you can tell theyâre trying to perfect the performance of the scooter. I have a new mobility scooter for older people đ and itâs great.
I feel that way too! GoTrax is really improving their line of scooters
Hello AK ! Nice E scooter , very smooth & niftyđ you are so lucky to be free to go wherever you want. I'm caring for my dad 24/7 & it's nice to watch you go places . Its very therapeutic Thank you â€
I got this scooter last week and it was the best purchase Iâve made in a while lol. I think the G6 wouldâve be perfect as it gives you that extra 10 mile range and a lock feature. Constant acceleration with a 500w motor definitely gets the battery draining. G5 still an amazing new starter scooter, I just didnât want to wait 2 months for the G6 đ
Wow, what a nice scooter! The price is amazing too!
It really is! I love how well it performs.
Quite nice looking e-scooterđŽand equipped quite nicely đSeems smooth ride , i enjoyed a lot , these rides with scooter are my favorites đThank you for sharing A Kđđ!!!
You're welcome, glad you enjoyed it!
Wow! This scooter is nice, quite an improvement in micro-mobility. A great price too. Thanks for this test and review ride.
Good Monday Morning My Friend IAM Hoping That You Are Having A Rejoicing Day I Really Appreciate You For Inviting All Of Us To Ride Our Scooter Along With You
Thank You So Much For Demonstrating The Scooter Ride For All Of Us
Much Blessings And Love Always Ms British Gray From Tampa Florida đ
Thank you!
@@ActionKid It's Always My Pleasure ;)
Great transportation! Thank you for sharing!
Another informative and helpful AK review.
Thanks for sharing ActionKidđ
Cool video and review. Btw. Am I the only one that saw sonic on road. Lol.
Nice to see you are getting some sponsors.
Been looking around for a scooter. Gotrax looks amazing.
Dang, and here I was thinking you were going to go to Roosevelt Island lol nice scooter by the way.
Now I want this
Iâve enjoyed your scooter âwalksâ and want more! See you soon.
G5 looks good!
It really is!
nice video. you have to have a high level of confidence to ride those things
You really do, it takes some time to get used to.
This cost $824.00 CDN on the website. Thank you for sharing.
Great review! One of these days you should do a scooter rider safety video. You seem to ride this with a lot of experienced confidence. But I know in NYC it's not as easy as it looks!
Our boy went New Jersey to film sponsor video, my man u made it, wishing u more big sponsors to comeđ
This was in Long Island City
@@ActionKid oh my bad, looked like NJ haha
Wow cool how many of those scooters do you own? You seem to have a lot of those. I'm sure you still have some in Florida as well . But great đđż video as always action kid. Thanks for this video great to know what's good out there on the market
It's quite steep where I live, had to buy 5600 Watt scooter, just love it, way more than my 1 liter Ninja, not kidding.
Wow, that's some serious power needed for those hills!
Great demo! Manufactured in TX!!!
Thanks!
Would you recommend this or the inmotion climber you reviewed in Florida?
Wow! That's half the price and 500 watts is double the power of my 2 year-old E-bike! Technology goes forward in leaps and bounds! The 31 mile range is another improvement, but still not quite enough to get you from Astoria to Coney Island and back in one go eh Ken?! đ
It's great to see these micro mobility vehicles improving
I have a GoTrax G4 (2+ problem free years) and I am considering an upgrade to this new G5. Primarily for the suspension, however the 500 W motor with a 48 V battery is also a perk. GoTrax seems to have upped its game, including its customer service. Do you think I should wait for the h coming soon) G6?
James and Karla, had a vintage rock hopper bike two bikes, they were giving away, the bikes needs tubes those people, that know how to rebuild bikes.
It's nice to buy in bulk because of what's going on in the world you never know when water and food is gonna be gone here shortly
13:36 shoulda asked Sonic to race
They are great exactly the same as my new one just a different brand name mine is by Reid boost being an Aussie brand enjoy đ
Really cool!
@@ActionKid enjoy & have a great day!
Are you ok with front and rear suspension rather than front suspension for bikes and scooters?
Any type of suspension is welcomed!
Hello, ActionKid. This is a great idea and presentation. Would you do the same with small folding electric bikes.? And, if not inconvenient for you: where a small folding electric bike can be purchased in NYC. Thanks.
Good job with the review. Wireless mic now and an own camera man! ;)
Thank you so much!
very good deal- how long it take to charge and when in avg will power die off?
5 hours okay
Do you like it enough to keep it. Would you ride it over the bridge? Thanks Ken.
what's the real everyday use range of the G5. If I can get 20 miles out of this model - I will get it.
â€â€â€
Well - I had to dig some, but got the information. So disappointed this model has a real range of about 12 miles! I will wait for the G6 or get the new Segway G2.
Mine ninebot max is 3 years old, and still runs like new.. need to change battery after this season.. i only drive in eco mode only. Just because i need it for my long rides..
Love my ninebot that Iâve currently had for 3 years now, Itâs amazing quality for the price but Iâm looking to get a new one probably the P65 since it goes 25 MPH and has a 40.4 mile range.
@@mattpronovost2170 ill kept mine.. in 3 years i changed throtle and now i have tubes. Because tubeles is leaking.. least i had problems.. i only drive in ECO mode up to 15Kmh... battery is still very healthy because of that... i have few videos.. but not anymore because i need entire week to upload in 1080p... ufff...
Very good!
@@ActionKid how much range has it..
40 miles, like yours. if you still have it... just make sure that your tires are really hard inflated. less friction means better range and better gliding. mine is very early first gen. from end of 2019. 4900 miles in 3 years. and temperatures has major effect on maximum range..
*Gmax ultra is 500w motor as well. U felt g5 accelerated faster?
3:08
Whatâs that building in front of you
So now you have 3 scooters.
How many miles does it go on one full charge? They advertise 25-35 miles but what is the real situation with it?
Hi there this has a 9.6 amp/h battery in real world conditions it would have to be like 12 miles if you went and decent speed. I have a 48 volt 18 amp/h scooter and it gets 18 to 20 max if you are careful with the speed. most scooter company's test range with a very light person going very slow to make it sound better
What big box store is this scooter offered?
Action will you be using this scooter in Florida also?
It's possible!
Ak on wheels!
max weight can carry?
According to the website MAX RIDER WEIGHT - 220lbs
I should've gotten this scooter instead of the one I got with no brakes which caused me to fall while intoxicated đ
Hi Ak, what's the size of the battery and what's it's range?
According to the website 48V 10.4AH Lithium-ion Battery (499Wh) and MILES PER CHARGE - 25-35 miles
@@ActionKid sorry no way its 9.6 and that would be about 12 miles real world
Is it fast
Ken they've made those kick scooters here in Toronto Canada illegal but they're not enforcing it yet
In NYC, they're legal on streets, but not on sidewalks and parks. He's lucky a toy cop didn't hassle him at the very beginning of the video.
I wouldn't be concerned about it then. There are already thousands of micro mobility vehicles and scooters on Toronto streets.
Learning to stop is not on list ;)
â€â€â€â€â€â€đ
ĐĄĐșŃĐ»ŃĐșĐž ĐșĐŸĐœŃĐČ?
Wow kid thats a way better scooter than mine, which only has one modeâŠâŠpeasant mode đą
Great!
Just curious about your riding habitsâŠ.. it seems you ride right (with caution) through red lights. In my riding locals, scooters need to abide by automobile rules, which only permit right turn on red (not a criticism, just an observation) Any comment? Great video! Thanks.
Safe Travels đđ
oh... & never charge lithium batteries indoors đđĄ
â€ïžđœđđŽđ
Ion battery
@@ActionKid would be insulted if I literally had an idea what that meant
If customer service is important to you, do not purchase anything from this company. I cannot state it any clearer than that
You totally stopped your scooter wrong. Your supposed to lean back, which is a poor example for newbie riders.
