    • @VRMinde
      @VRMinde  Před dnem

      It really depends on your style mate. I do generally love 2WD scooters due to their "take-off" speed is much cooler, and I do also prefer more maneuverable and agile ones, than large high-speed scoots... So I like g2 master more, but you might like g4 better :)

      Hi mate, I can ask someone like Geekbuying, but there is no guarantee. Companies need to do "promotions" to send scooters to the guys like me for reviews. Then there is a second problem - I decline many ebike and scooter reviews if the companies demand to pre-view my videos before I release them. Also, some companies demand "not to share over-negative opinions" about their products and I decline every request like that. I have no idea what the policy is with the Yume Swift.

    How many years will the battery last ?

    • @VRMinde
      @VRMinde  Před měsícem +2

      It depends. For me, batteries last for years, but I am using multiple bikes/scooters and keep them well charged when not using them (at 50%).
      Mainly what influences a lithium battery's life is 1. DoD (depth of discharge) - the less you drain it the longer it lasts, if you go to 0 - you are killing it. 2. Charge rate/speed (it is already slow and safe as it is on Kukirin scooters, but some people use fast chargers). 3. Operating temperatures: neither too hot nor too cold is good. 4. Cycle count - battery typically will start degrading with more than 500 charge cycles 5. Quality of cells. 6. Storage conditions (keep them 40-60% charged for long storage, not full or empty).

    • @VRMinde
      @VRMinde  Před měsícem +3

      Can’t be unless your steering bearings are loose. I will make a video I think about the speed wobbles on both the master and g4.
      There is a grub screw / fixation screw at the bottom where the steering bearings are, from the side of the scooter. You need to loosen it,, then tighten the large screw that is above the front wheel (it is upside down), do not overdo that or you won’t be able to turn the steering bar! And then tighten the grub screw again.

    Definitely avoid this scooter . Front suspension is non existent. It rock solid .

    • @VRMinde
      @VRMinde  Před 10 dny

      What are you even talking about?
      First of all, the suspension is one pf the greatest suspensions on e-scooters.
      It is not measured by “how soft it feels”, but by how it absorbs impact and keeps you stable on bumps. You know you can adjust it as well right?
      Second - cruise control dangerous? Press brakes or accelerator again and it disengages, how is it dangerous?
      And last - you can hold “mode” button on the touchscreen to enable/disable the cruise control... so there is a way..
      Bonus tip: If you hold “set”
      Button you can enable or disable zero-start….
