Here is a Throttle tip for u guys that For some reason Gotrax never ever mentions 🤷🏻♂️ . The throttle only becomes active when the display changes from odometer to speedometer. So you don’t have to push the scooter faster or double pump the throttle, you only have to Waite two seconds after you push off, then the display will change from odometer to speedometer then hit the throttle and you are good to go. ………. You’re welcome : )
Awesome review, i needed this video because I’m buying one
I owned the Gotrax RIVAL from Walmart and it is awesome!! But don't leave the charger on it over night, set a alarm for 4 to 6 hours then disconnect. The battery will be damaged
So w have to be very carfull when its charges?
@@pxods yes don't over charge
@@xxkarlosxxxxxx7233 I only charge it like ones a month since I don’t use it a lot! But I always let it like 50% and then I’ll recharge it! But ones it’s done! I’ll unplug it !
Thank you !
Lol really? In 2022?
Here is my review of the Gotrax g4 after using it for 5 months.
1. Amazing brakes
2. Its fast
3. Good battery life
4. Astonishing giant tires
5. Comparing to the gxl it has a huge screen. The same as the g3
6. Amazing security (pin, Bike lock)
7. It has an amazing folding mechanism
8. Its big.
Great review. Thanks.
Did a 2nd test this morning, G2 pretty 👍 good, 15 mph feels fast enough. Can go about a mile in 7 min. Good over grass dodging dog walkers when traffic is heavy. Good braking and good going over small bumps and driving way ramp bumps.
Update on the G2, still running good. Breezes down the road. 15mph good, but the 20 mph version would definitely be better.
How do I turn the back light off?
We've had 2 g4's for 2 years now. No issues at all and still get same range on battery
Do you know how much miles you get per charge?
@@_smarrero Depends on how fast you go. If you stay in speed 1 you will get over 22 miles. If you use speed 2 like me and average 15-20mph it will be less. Maybe 15-18 depending on inclines
My g4 is coming in a few days. First e scooter.
@@Smoot561treasureshow's your g4 holding up now?! would you still recommend. How is it's water resistance and braking?
@@satwikk9896 Both of them are still doing very well. Batteries have held up and suprisingly the tires as well. Just check your tire pressure frequently or it will drastically decrease your range
Thank you so much for The review
Is this the 15 mile version? Could I make it to my house if my house is 3.1 miles away?
Does anyone know what kind of screws I need to keep the handle bars in place my son got Into an accident and with the impact the screws came out
Thanks for the coupon code!
I have one.. Just got it and love it..
How long is shipping usually?
what happens if it starts running slower than before? I bought it I think 2 years ago as a present for my wife & she’s telling me it’s not going fast like before. What should I do?
Thank you for this!
thanks for sharing!!!
It’s not keeping charge properly, what should I do ? It’s new one . It’s supposed to giving me 20-25 miles but getting only 12 km 😢 please help anyone if anyone has any suggestions.
I wish the frame and shaft were longer. As a average hight person my feet get tired after just a few minutes from my feet staying too close together, which in turn makes me feel less balanced.
What's average height ?
When does this code expire?
Nah I’m getting this. I looks amazing quick and easy. I need this to get to work and back
How do you get it to go 20 mph
good review
If the battery dies, can I walk with it home? My last escooter died 4mi from home and wheels lock up so I had to carry 28 pounds 4miles. Can I freely push this home if battery dies?
Yes.
I was about to get the gotrax elite but now I’ll get this one instead thanks
Don’t they got ally of problems
The built-in lock someone broke mine
Can you ride this like a kick scooter when it run out of juice?
Of course
I keep seeing hate on Gotrax, are they really that bad? I know most e scooters won't go as far as they say and that they're usually slower too. I'm just getting into scooters and I don't want to spend a ton on one. I'm 6'2 and usually between 210 - 220lbs does anyone have any other brands they'd recommend? Is Hiboy or Turboant good companies? It'll be just a weekend toy for me basically
G4 is pretty awesome. I'm 195lbs carrying a bagpack and it's my daily commute to work (2miles). I have no problem hitting the 20mph. My coworkers are all swinging by my office inquiring about it. The only downfall is the 25 miles advertised. Like this video is.mentioning, it's probably more 15 miles but the rest is awesome. Buy it, you wont regret it.
Does anyone know the difference between the g3 vs 4g. And why did the discontinued the g3 after 1 year.
Oh wow I didnt know that! I just bought the G3
yup, getting this
What about the G3??
What is a 30e error code ??
This is really cool Good 👍🏾
80 miles in, and my scooter won't turn on. 90 days warranty passed. I have no idea which part of my scooter is broken. Even if I know they don't sell spare parts for G4 model. There goes my $499 and only gotten 80miles lol
Sorry to hear-that. You just convinced me & my friend to go Ninebot-Max - we were-both set on the G-4, ( before I heard your story ). I hope they Rectify your situation.
@@michael_caz_nyc Like I'm sure the problem is minor, but there is nothing I can do if they don't sell spare parts. The problem could be the monitor display, power button switch, motor, or battery. I can definitely find out which if I have spare parts.. So is better to buy a more well known Scooter that sell these. And 1 version older even better because there are more ppl out there with the scooter to sell whatever parts u need if something break. Glad you made a good purchase :)
Does anybody know the bars diameter? Trying to buy accessories but don’t currently have the scooter in hands yet

FROM CANADA! HOW DO I CHANGE THW DISPLAY FROM MPH TO KPH
Don’t why carew
0:50 Amazon(Canada) is selling this for 1200. Strange as this is now an over 3 yr old product.
1:35 main reason I won't get the other ones on the market that gotrax sells. Speed and range is important
Best $500 scooter on the market, I love my gxl v2 but this one has alot more torque for hills and speed, easily get 22mph on flat surface and 28 down an incline
Same but I wouldn’t get this any way cause I don’t have 500 bucks
Would go faster than 20 if someone can figure how to bypass limiter.
@@911S yeah idk, I'd know which wire it is but I've never taken the bottom deck off to see.
B is ya if you pick the scooter up it maxes out with no weight on it the same speed with weight
Any company is better than gotrax. Gotrax has an F rating on the Dallas Texas better business bureau. Look at the complaints. They don't do any of their own assembly or repairs and are nothing more than a US warehouse for fully Chinese made and built scooters.
Is this better than hiboy s2 pro?
I’m my opinion yes it is I will be getting the g4
Amen Hallelujah 🙏🏽
I really wanted to buy this, but I don’t know too much about this brand, I ended up buying a ninebot Max G30LP I just pay $650 and I’m happy with my purchase.
U payed in USD or CAD?
@@furious7754 USD, last time I check it it was even cheaper
@@armandoarroyo how many km can I go on a full charge
@@furious7754 I never have drain out all battery but i usually ride it about 40 min and it spend about 2 bars (5total)
I would say about 20 miles per full charge, approx

can someone help me out. I have my 3 digit code but I can’t seem to be able to move it
Don't expect a discount on any codes they don't work and I don't understand why the creators don't know this? Why are they supporting Gotrax with FALSE advertising. Creators Take your videos down until you have confirmation the code work.
Is it better than the niu kqi2 pro?
I would say the NIU KQi2 Pro is a better option based on our tests. Better build quality, and 2 year warranty
Can you mod these. Put off road tires and make the range extend ?
Potentially. They do make off road tires for e-scooters but it tends to be for the bigger ones. Also changing the tire on these electric scooters is a real pain.
The lock is held on by 4 screws. Umm..... So to steal it you just need to remove 4 screws?
Or urs the digital look
I bought this at Walmart for 288$.
How is this compared to the Hiboy S2 Pro?
Very Similar.. I’d say HiBoy by a Hair
My son is 9 years old and about 46” tall would he be able to ride this scooter? Wanted to get something that he can grow into instead of out of ?
I think it's not okay for kids because they can get hurt
Just get him a bike
Yes, buying for my 11 yr old. Just wear proper protective gear
@@siesiechampion I don't recommend buying anything from this brand. There are a lot of reviews saying this is a scam and saying the support that this company offers is so horrible. They don't even help. I did a ton of research before buying my first scooter and I just got the Xiaomi M365 scooter from Amazon. It's the best budget scooter in the world.
@@furious7754 nah
cool looking scooter. The lock is useless. Thieves can cut that cable in 2 seconds
But who's gonna carry round sisors with them

What is the lowest price this has ever been on at amazon?
539 currently

@@willtarnavlogs just bought one for 539 shipped cap you missed the sale
The KQi3 from Niu offers better speed and range for a slightly higher price !!!!!
What happens if you get a flat tire? Gotrax only sells 8"5 inch tires, G4 is 10 inch air filled tires. Do you just have to buy an entire new scooter once u get a flat? Lmao
I'm sure the Flintstones can let you rent a wheel
Your comment was posted 5 months ago I hope they got 10 inch tires available by now well lets hope so😂
@@trini_boi2414 still no 😂
@@trini_boi2414 upgraded to the new nanrobot lightning. Comes with solid tires
@@Jay-qj9zk wow that's ridiculous I guess I wouldn't be that scooter unless any basic 10 inch tires would work on this scooter🤔
Yeah it is awesome but it only ships in America😞
Check out Fun Bikes
This is identical in every way ti the carerra is impel 2.0
Pin to turn it on and off is ridiculous. And the rider will find it irritating. Nobody is going to knock one off a scooter so just make it have a hardened steel body loop so the rider can use a Ubar Kryptonite or big chain and padlock. I dont have those issues with my ECORECO L5 PLUS electric scooter 👌
Thats why xiamio and segway are in front, you get overwhelmed with tuning stuff
I just got this scooted 2 days ago. Now that im used to the 20mph it is just too slow for me. I should have saved more to purchase their faster scooter with a longer mile range bht this g4 will get my jobs done still. Just too slow imo.
I ended up buying the scooter and I can say the claims GoTrax has made are false. Firstly I don’t get more then 15 miles on a single battery charge (I weight 165lbs), there is no dual breaking system as well, in fact the braking system present does not brake the scooter fast enough when you are going at 20mph.
The initial assembly of it is also a bit messed up, the screws do not go in easily. Apart from it is a good scooter. But all the reviews out there have hyped the scooter above what it’s worth. Honestly most of the reviews out there seem like paid promotion apart from genuine review. At least this channel mentioned few of the flaws as well.
Gotrax has an F rating on the Dallas Texas better business bureau page. Terrible company. They ship scooters not correctly assembled (big flaws like the entire wheel bearing installed bent) then want you to pay to ship the entire scooter back. Not something normal like just the wheel. They sell new buyers scooters while telling you they have none. Or as you mentioned they have fake reviews because they mention when they purchased and received yet gotrax says sorry we can't replace the bad unit we sent you waiting on stock from China. Support has zero product knowledge. Gotrax does not do any assembly or repairs themselves. They want to blast loud and proud they are based in Texas USA yet their product is fully Chinese made and assembled and their ceo is a Chinese national. Even glassdoor/linked in former employees mention they were treated poorly if they were not Chinese.
Rarely do you get a scooter or ebike that goes the distance that the company says it goes . The brakes are adjustable.
@@yallsofake9344 he mentioned there is not TWO brakes as advertised. As in the electronic doesn't function. That can't be adjusted. I've also read people are finding the battery cells are not LG as advertised in some gotrax products.
@@AMoneyVideo I'm responding to when he said it doesn't brake the scooter fast enough. I'm just correcting him .just like with a bike it brakes well when you adjust the it appropriately.
@@yallsofake9344 just like a bike....with two brakes. Front and back. One wheel brake can not only be dangerous but is clearly not the stoping power of two brakes.
Now they are selling that for $650 inflation and🤯 I am not buying it for this money
Can you plz make them water resistant thank you . God bless
36 pounds? That means when I am done riding it....I can curl it for massive biceps.
g4 xtech zoom caliper upgrade czcams.com/video/wWcD4BgUN7o/video.html
Ninebot max is way to go 👍
Im debating on the ninebot esl1 or the gotrax apex🤔
My experience is so bad that I returned my scooter within 1 week. The battery doesn't last like the way they advertised it, the top speed barely hit 16mph at full charged and my brother Macwheel Pro that runs 15.5 miles is faster than this one, it was smoking it in the race lol. I felt like this scooter can go faster but there is something limiting it, they should update their firmware and fix the speed.
Gotrax is a terrible company. F rating on Dallas Texas better business bureau.
WOW. mine is great so far.
Hi
these scooter are fine at first. but after 6 months mine just quit. they say they have a 1 year warranty but its a complete lie. will never buy a gotrax again
Problem with all this e scooter is spare parts, the comoanys didnt get it, we dont buy stuff that cant be repaired. Try..find a original battery for the g4 or a brake lever ....
Exectly I think this things needs a buff for an electroc scootur liek this stuff feels kinda like a nonsense because the componys aren't willing to.

This video is 3 year old bud it’s expired
I repeat I repeat do not buy the warranty that go track offers it is a scam I've been through this they refused to honor the contract of insurance I repeat do not buy the insurance for mulberry that go track offers its a scam
Do not buy it is a waste of money. It goes up to 20mph however it breaks easily the lock broke off trying to unlock it. The battery sucks and doesn’t last long. And one fall and the scooter breaks and is unrideable do not waste your money
GoTrax has an F rating on the Dallas Texas better business bureau. Terrible company. They don't do any assembly or repairs and are nothing more than a US warehouse for fully Chinese made and built scooters. Sells new buyers scooters while telling old buyers waiting on exchanges to wait. Support knows less about their products than even shown in this video.
Do not buy gotrax. If you have any problem, they take no responsibility for their failures. Mine was brand new and had an error code. They would not ship parts, but wanted the entire scooter returned and implied if they could fix it it would be at a minimal charge. They would not send packaging and said any damage in shipping was my responsibility. Terrible customer service.
A lot of college ppl have gotrax
@@jarenventures How does that matter? They suck. They do not back their product. Check their Better Business Bureau page.
The scooter is 649 not 500 dollars
Inflation…we made the video in 2020!

This scooter make in China. No technical support. I use only 3 time, the battery have a broplem. No vendor in USA. Do not buy this. You will be sorry
Bought it and love it. Had it for weeks. Used many times.
@@sonly4067 yea gotrax has an F rating on the Dallas Texas better business bureau. Terrible company. They don't do any of their own assembly or repairs. Fully Chinese made and built scooters.
GoTrax has terrible support, my new G4 did not arrive with screws, after waiting for replacement they did not send enough and wrong size. Totally frustrating. Do not buy the hype.
F rating on Dallas Texas better business bureau.
@@AMoneyVideo You can stop spamming this and just tell us what's a better scooter then. You spamming the exact same comment will just get me to buy it even more. Find me one that's less than $600 and goes 20MPH+ if you know which company is reputable because everywhere I go, all scooter companies are horrible
@@algebruh_m8652 Any of the segways. The real version of this scooter xiaomi. Turbowheel. There's 3. I'll quit letting people know how trash gotrax is when gotrax stops being trash.
@@AMoneyVideo Well after a lot of painstaking reviews and comparison I locked on the Segway ES2. I would've gotten the ES4 or the MAX but I just had $729 and didn't want to spend it all. It's hard finding a good electric scooter because they are either Chinese knock-offs with poor assembly or the good ones are priced as if it were some used car on Offerup.
This is not a review, it' an AD. Only pros? No cons? Your channel is not objective.
Beware of gotrax. Please read reply
BUYER BEWARE! Golabs (gotrax is same company) does not honor their warranty. They do not have a phone number, they do not answer service links from their website. They do not answer claims filled out on their website. They removed all negative comments from the golabs website on 3/22. If you don't believe me try to get in touch with golabs, Try to find a email address or phone number on their website. On March 27 Gotrax supplied a service email for Golabs only after i showed proof of purchase.Please share this post as consumers need to be aware of issues with these 2 companies. Check Out their BBB rating for both company's Carrollton TX.
You lack to provide any meaningful cons - all scooters have cons. Will look for a balanced review elsewhere.

Don't buy it!
Be careful... this scooter have a lot of problems... in the break and must in the tire... ever get flat.. and don't have any solid replacement that fit well. The air tube best quality you can use for 1 month maximum... ridiculous. Customers service don't work.... so bad company!

GoTRAX is garbage. Worth $99. They charge 300% don’t buy an electric scooter if you can’t buy the REAL dual motor ones
This rice cooker is perfect! I use it only for me czcams.com/users/postUgkxviiltW7NlHbp_VL_bLbIkbLAvILVhnia and sometimes me and my friend so the small size is really great for counter space since we never need to make all that much. I have been using it now for about 2 months and it still works perfectly. I use it for both rice and vegetables (better for harder vegetables like green beans and carrots, it made my broccoli way too smoosh-y for my taste). It keeps your rice on keep warm automatically which I really like, and I’ve used a few of the settings, flash rice, white rice, brown rice, and steam, and they all work super well for me, although I don’t like smooshy rice so I’ll usually use flash rice. It’s super easy to clean either in dishwasher or hand wash, and it’s pretty easy to get rice out of the grooves by where the container comes out. I assume this one will last me a long time but if I ever need another I will definitely be getting this one again!
How reliable is that cable lock tho ?... I don't want anyone to come clip it off 🥲
