  • I ride my new electric scooter from Astoria, Queens to Chelsea, Manhattan. The entire journey took a little less than half an hour. The ride went pretty smooth, and my route down 5th Avenue went a lot better than I expected.

    1:38 Brother that is why you need at least a helmet. You never know what other riders or pedestrians will do. I ride with a full face helmet, knee/elbow pads, gloves and a "visibility" vest as my bare minimum. The bell is ok for bike riders and pedestrians but in NYC like you and I you need a horn too, for motorized vehicles. Keep up the great videos and ride safe.

    • @chaxologist2961
      @chaxologist2961 Před 4 měsíci +1

      That's a bit overkill especially when you're late to work to dismount quickly. I at the very least wear a helmet with head and tail lights and knee pads for quick changing and ease of carrying the gear.
      I would recommend wearing wrist guards and elbow guards in addition if one's day is well-planned, though.

  • @george8873

    First thing I noticed about this scooter over your other one is a much smoother ride and the camera isn't being jostled around when you hit bumps.

    Got a G Max Ultra a few days ago, fun little scooter. Actual speed is 18 and the actual range is more like 20 miles. Back tire went flat on mine, leaking around the valve stem. It's a tubeless tire so I tried to seal it but no luck. Just happened, not resolved yet. I love your vids, have been watching for a long time, you are the man!

    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 : )

    Nope, that longboarder just ran into the intersection without slowing down! I am a skater myself and I hate to see that! Gives us a bad name!
    BTW, you need to check your squealing brakes!
    What happened to your old scooter?
    It wasn't that long ago that they replaced 5th ave. No it is a pot holed mess again!
