- 3XT bringing you my take on the new Segway ninebot Max G2.
Hands down fantastic ride, significant upgrades from the Ninebot Max.
Join me in another rolling review where I compare the G2 with the original
Ninebot max! - Zábava
Everybody is complaining about overheating since they used the same 36v battery and added 15 pounds.
I've heard of this from various places but strangely enough have a not had one overheat error code on mine and I've ridden a lot. Under what conditions are people getting this?
From what I can tell, uphill when it's hot outside with a 200lbs plus rider.
@@IamReallySantaamericans are heavy...😂😂😂
@@breadgarlichousenot just Americans but I know what you mean. Consumers over consuming 🤣
@breadgarlichouse
Too much sugar,carbs,sodas,beer,salt & lack of walking...etc.
Those people should be taxed for it!!!!10%!!!😮😮🎉😂😅
I think turn signals should be mandatory on e-scooters as hand signals are near impossible
They make a BIG diff, wish the G2 had rear blinkers, but the front turn signals are bright.
Really great scooter, especially on hills. Just got mine and tried it out on a local hill (was worried it couldn't handle it), but it did just fine (had to be in sport mode, though).
No overheating issue so far?
Have used mine on plenty of hills. No overheating issue. Not sure what the fuss is about frankly. Definitely put it in sport mode
i have a ninebot max g30 clone with 500 watt motor and sadly with my weight (120kg) it cant handle too steep hills.
Great video but music was too loud at the end.😮.Thx.😊
I have the es4 and put a bunch of miles on it but it's been great and I'm about to get the max G2 in a couple weeks and can't wait i know it's a good upgrade
Great upgrade. Very solid and good power
Will a sharkset or any of those suspension for the g30 be compatible for the g2 I already bent my part under that hydraulic covering 😢.
I have the Max G2 and I agree it is a fabulous scooter. I also have a Max 30 and after riding the G2 with suspension I decided to upgrad the 30 with Monorim suspension front and rear.
Now it is a tough call which one I prefer. The Max 30 with Monorim suspension is definitely smoother over bumps. It feels a bit zippier with my 82 kg. Both seem equal on hill climbs. So I have to say i prefer riding the Max 30 because the monorim suspensiion is silky smooth.
If you take away that suspension the G2 is the hands down winner. The ride is beautiful too
That's cool. How easy was it to upgrade the suspension?
@@EthanClansky They have really good installation videos and I watched them a number of times before the parts arrived. The rear suspension took about an hour. It was the easiest one. They provided a different rear light but I didn't like that so i wired up the original one with an extension. That took another hour but I was happy having the correct rea brake light.
The front was fairly easy too. It took a little longer but that was just because I didn't prepare and have the scooter set up on a stand. I was able to improve the front one slightly with an aiddiitonal washer which stopped one of the bolts from having 1 mm of free play. The result is fabulous. Really nice suspension.
One minus was the rear suspension squeaked a bit going over bumps. i was able to fix this with lithium grease sprayed into the spring and the mounting bolts of the rear shock absorber. It is all super smooth and silent now.
Great test! As you drove both P100 and Max G2, you already cover about better handling smoother ride (lighter and more enjoyable if I understood it correctly) how about acceleration and braking ? Is the P100 accelerating really faster ? Is braking as good ? Of course the P100 top speed is higher but my question is really about acceleration (safer to accelerate quickly at traffic lights). Thanks !
The p100 is hands down faster and accelerates much harder but overall I still prefer the G2 because it s much lighter and nimble also easier to take on public transportation or put in tighter spaces for storage. The G2 has very good engine braking but it would still be preferable to include disc brakes also to the single drum
Excellent detailed review of the G2. I agree completely. I own both the G2 and the P100S.
Thanks for watching!
Which one do you prefer over the two?
@@muSPKWoW For everyday use I prefer the G2. For going to further places and faster the P100S is the choice.
@@michaelchin3550 Main issue with the P100S is the weight. Much easier to carry the G2 with you, if you have to use the buss or train.
@@muSPKWoW Agree.
One of the most thorough reviews so far! Would the g30 segway seat work on max g2 or the deck is different and does not work?
That I'm not sure. Haven't tried out any seats on my Max scooters. You would have to get the exact dimensions of the decks then compare.
Seat is different, I have both.. G30 uses regular bike type pole and seat, base is too narrow to fit on G2, G2 uses double pole unique type with attached seat bag, double the price too!
Gonna get my son one for his bday, upgrading from a segway e25a
Good investment and fun as hell
I just got for my 10 year son too, but the handlebars are way too high. Is there a way to lower them?
@@srobeck77 to ride an adult scooter in the USA need to have a driver's license. So, 10 years old cannot legally drive.
@@ap3401 theres no such thing as a drivers license for an ebike in the U.S.
@@srobeck77 In Massachusetts need to have a license to drive adult scooter, did you check regulations in your state?
Mine rear mudguard is slightly off centered. I think it hits the tires sometimes
ordered mine. i've owned the G30 II E used ( 25 european max speed ) with 2000 km, i putted 350 km by daily commute. i loved the scooter but the stiffness without absorber shocks was a nono for a 30 km everyday commute. i live in paris so there is old pavement road sometimes and hills. But i was amazed with the quality, it was rode by a 100 kg rider so to the maximum G30 alloed rider wieght. The folding mecanism was alsmot like new and no squiqs like the old m365.
Altho i don't know why the rear wheel was...deformed ( maybe a high speed bump that damaged the tyre ) so it was not very comfy.
i can't wait to have mine and hope the shocks absorbers will keep the feeling over the miles
While riding on bumpy roads on G30P, I realized that speed should not be more than 20 km./12 miles for my own comfort. I use sport mode only when go uphill and then return to the drive mode again.
Does anyone know where to get MAX G2 NEW TIRES? (Not available in Segway store)
I would email their technical or sales support and pester them about the part availability
How does the G2 compare to the p100s in your opinion? I recently purchased both. I’ve been riding all over Kirkland with my wife the last two weeks. Obviously, the p100s has more speed/acceleration and better lighting, but I prefer the G2 suspension over the p100s. I also find the stem of the p100s has more play/wobble and the p100s makes more rattle/creaking noises. Have you noticed stem flex/wobble, stiff suspension, and suspension noise on the P100s?
That's pretty accurate with what I've experienced the p100 does have some creaking in the stem when certain bolts start to loosen up. I also prefer the G2 suspension over the spring type of the p100 which doesn't dampen as much however the G2 bottoms out to suspension when going over pumps and makes it loud pop noise in my experience. Overall The G2 is still a better daily ride and doesn't have the annoying issue with the rear brake rubbing like the p100 does
So what range did u get with the max speed on, Im 133kg so thinking of buying it:)) but I guess I get a range of 30km with my weight:) I heard people complain of overheatings on this model-
I'm getting the full max speed of 35 km per hour here in US. Yes, range varies a lot with weight and road hills etc. It's still a fantastic scooter and the best overall Segway scooter I've had
Seems about the same as the Max G30. but with damping. (which it needs)
I flashed mine with some Android apps.
Doesn't really feel so fast, but it's pretty enjoyable to just leisure and cruise around at 18-19mph
Very enjoyable as in every day scooter definitely agree. For me definitely seems faster than the G30. I assume you already have turned on Max speed , power etc in app?
That extra 200W peak power from the motor makes a big difference.
definitely. especially for hills.
@@EthanClansky Yep, that's when your going to be pulling 20+ Amps
Does anyone heard a kind of "crack noise" from back suspensions driving this scooter as me? And any solution? Tnx
I hear kind of a pop sometimes from the back suspension when I go over over a bigger bump I think it’s from the suspension bottomming out
@@EthanClansky I think this is the oversized bushing noise that I mention below - bottom bushings are too large and have a little bit of free play as the rear comes off the ground. Seems a common issue..
I think this video was made before the firmware update, right? Have you noticed a difference with the G2 since than in terms of acceleration, torque etc? For example, in this video @ 8.13 minutes we see you go up a hill, reaching a top speed of 24 km/hr for the first part of the hill. For the second part of the hill you reach a top speed of 27km/hr. You say, "the Ninebot Max would not have been able to do that hill near this speed. It probably would have been at least 10 km/hr slower". Is this still the case since the firmware update?
Haven’t had the chance to update the firmware recently. What is the latest one? There were multiple updates though after I bought it.
The latest firmware is v1.4.8. May I ask what you have?@@EthanClansky
Sickkk
Def a sick scooter ✌🏼
Why would you have. P100 and a G2? Great review.
P100 or a G2? G2 anyday. G2 is more reliable and better built, and more portable.
Ghost brakes? Sudden, full acceleration on its own? Motor overheating when climbing a bit on inclination? These are what people reported.
also charging issues
@@714SNF i have been driving it for over a month now, no issues at all. I recommend the scooter.
Autonomy in km?
Merhaba süspansiyonlar hakkinda ne düşünüyorsun yeterince iyimi ?
Does this model have regenerative braking system? Thank
Yep
All the Problems with the g2, it's sad, i stick with my g30 max until a updated version of the g2 comes out.
Can you use in rain??
Better to never do that, so dont do it. Causes rusts and unnecessary wear. Are you trying to make a love song video in the rain on a scooter or why would you ever do that?
@@srobeck77 Bruh stop. I live in Italy where rain come in winter and i have to go work with my scooter in rain. That’s why i ask that question. Who gonna ruin a 750 euro scooter??
@@sifathossen5134 dont use it on those days, its scooter abuse bruh
As far as escooters go, this has one of the better IP waterproof ratings. Particularly at this price point.
Its only me (90kg) find this scooter useless on any incline more than 13% ?
The G30 has ABS for the electronic brake only, while the G2 has traction control and ABS. There is a big difference in tires between the two, both are 10” and both do have sealing tires, but the G2 has lower rolling resistance tires to reduce friction and heat, thats how they got more range out of the G2 despite the extra weight. So now if anyone needs new tires for their max G30, just buy max G2 tires, they are exactly the same, and will offer better performance and give you a bit more range.
If I had a Tesla, I would never ride a scooter.
Aha well scooter is still super fun and more therapeutic than driving for me
It has overheating problem.
If so, why didnt his overheat?
DO NOT buy the G2, it constantly over heats. you will get an H1 red error code on your display. it sucks. DO NOT buy!!!!!!!!
Interesting I've been hearing about this but I have not had the issue at all yet what are the conditions in which it happens?? And why haven't they put out a firmware update is the question
All escooters overheat in extremely hot weather. Some of them burn their controllers without any warning.
Are there not a bunch of battery protection features?@@EthanClansky
that brake noise was not attractive
Yep, lot better than the P100s though!
The rear suspension sucks
How so? Works well for me. It's adjustable if you don't like it you can make it stiffer.
@@EthanClansky There seems to be two rear suspension problems posted in various forums, both of which I had on my now 1 month old ~500km G2;
1) The last screw for the metal inner guard breaks off inside the plastic guard (behind the brake light) and the metal bangs/rattles against the plastic over every big bump. Fixed with glue or a new/better screw.
2) The bottom bushings on the rear springs are a little too big and so the rear wheel has free play as it leaves the ground - every time it hits the ground again it make a clunking noise. This can be tested by simply picking up the rear until it is nearly off the ground and hearing the clunk, and noticing where the free play is. I haven't fixed this yet but assume I need new bushings. It was like this from new.
