Hey everybody! Have you checked out our newest video on the NEW Ninebot Fingerprint U-Lock? This lock is next level. czcams.com/video/AjMy8Vh-nvQ/video.html&ab_channel=SegwayofOntario
🗣️HI . WHAT TESTING DEVICE , DO I USE TO CHECK ✅ THE CONTROLS OF THE SEGWAY NINEBOT G30 MAX . WHAT IS THE NAME OF THE TESTING DEVICE AND WHAT DOES IT LOOK LIKE .>🎤🛴
hahaha love the thief picking up the scooter interpretation. great presentation, and acting.
It seems men are suspects. Why don't use women stealing. I m kidding kkkkk.
Amazing video, been researching buying a scooter and this has been super helpful theft prevention!
We're happy you found this helpful! :)
Great intuitive video! I bought my son that exact scooter during Christmas and just bought him a cable lock. By watching your video I bought him the E lock today. Thank you
You're very welcome! Glad he loves it! 🤠
Just to clarify, the Airtag isn't a GPS tracker. It's simply a Bluetooth beacon. It relies on nearby iPhones and iPads to work send their location to Apple.
A real GPS tracker has a built-in GPS receiver and a cellular radio, so you need to buy a SIM card for it. But as long as your tracker has cell signal, you'll always know where it is, which gives me a peace of mind. The biggest downside is that they're a little big and bulky, so it may not fit into all scooters.
Can you share the link of the scooter?
You're right but I don't think that a GPS tracker can give you the exact location... Btw, how accurate is a GPS tracker?
@@horvathgabor5485
The accuracy can be less than 20 feet but depends on signal strength and satellite reception.
There are trackers with an RF signal.
You only need cell reception so it can send the name of the cell tower.
Then you can go looking for the beacon signal.
Automatrics has videos of their trackers on YT.
They are a company which do the tracking for you, even if they have to go to other continents to find your stuff.
Everyone has iPhone
AirTags are way better than gps trackers, especially in any city. This find my inclusion is a game changer.
Thanks for the info…it was very helpful and informative. A big thumbs up from this user!
No worries! Happy you found it helpful!👋
I didn't know that one of the locks even fits through the scooter's tyre.
I wanted to get an e scooter to make my commute to work a bit easier but I was worried about leaving it unattended for several hours in the locker room.
It should be fine with the remote control in combination with the folding lock though.
Thanks for the great tips!!
Buy the same like him
Will the following lock slide through the tires on an Unagi...I am having a hard time finding a way to secure it besides the cinch lock
Fantastic video! This was very helpful for me and just what I needed!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Good video 😂❤ a guy once tried stealing my e scooter but I just went out the shop and luckily stopped him in time 😅
I just used MasterLock's biggest actual lock around the angle piece, and run a cable lock through the masterlock to the bike locker. Used in conjunction with the software lock, means even with an angle grinder on the stem I retain the more expensive BATT, BMS, DRV, and internal charger. The stem and the dash can be replaced for cheap.
The cops you can also give them the serial number to register it.
Airtag is great two is better, two plus decoys are best, make one easy to find, and the real one inside hidden.
It puzzles me as to why Segway hasn't designed in a strong anchor point for securing the scooters.
100% ?! Why hasn't ANY scooter company done this?! [I got my NIU stolen last night...]
Good video. One additional step for deterrence is a physical cover of the scooter secured to the physical lock. Out of sight presents another level of deterrence to casual thieves but not for determined criminals. The costs for a cover is low and helps to keep gawkers away also. Just another suggestion. Stay safe!!
That's true as well. You can never trust anyone. Always have backup locks handy and store it inside your cubicle if you can.👍
Does the remote control also work for the ES4? Or is there one available? And how can i secure the extra battery better?
Greetings from Russia 🪆 🇷🇺!Great video! 👍 That's what I am searching for! I've ordered a ninebot max g2, but I didn't know how to lock it to prevent stealing! I've been searching for a video how to do it for a week and finally came across with yours!!! I also ordered an e-took! Thanks 😊
You’re welcome! We’re so glad you found us! We hope you’re enjoying your MAX G2!🤠🛴
Cool Video, thanks.
Ninebot stolen two weeks ago locked with U-LOCK on it's own --- it was locked only around the main standing neck and not below the wheel --- thieves actually must have unscrewed the handlebars to feed the lock up and off ---- most unfortunate indeed.
Sorry to hear - and thanks for sharing your story. It's a MUST to lock through your wheel.
@@segwayontario Sucks. Same thing happened to me last night, with my NIU. THe U-lock was still there, but the scooter, gone... :(
@@brookemaxwell2276 Can you please let me know if you locked the way shown in the video ? I need to buy a lock for my Segway .
Thanks that was actually really helpful!
Edit: I just ordered a folding lock cuz of this
can you link the u lock shown in the video? I am looking to buy one
I am an Australian in Australia. Recent owner of G30l.
Thankyou. Really little or no information or help here!
Required a mobility scooter but with seat, escooter was less than 10% cost affordable and only option.
How can I acquire the remote device you demonstrated? Please !
Sir how much does it cost the last gizmo in the Segway NineBot... planning to get my own personal mobility vehicle... from asia philipines... thank you so very much.. 👍👍👍🙂🙂🙂
2:50 Loose the confidence. My neighbor got his electric bike stolen using this lock. It was cut clean off.
I got an E45D how what lock did you say? I can't find an button lock funktion just the first time i buyed it i could unkock but no more!
Can the the remote starter be used on any e scooter or just for that basic scooter
Does The U Lock And The First Lock U Showed Work With the Segway NineBot F30E?
Super! Thank you!
The best protection of a scooter against theft is to never leave it on the street not a single second go to the store take to the store Enter the building take all the buildings end!
Yea like you just have to push it easily
I put it in the shopping cart
Living in nyc that it is as real as it gets. Protect it at all times. They are stolen all the time here. Be careful out there.
I have been thrown out of stores for pushing or trying to use a cart so that is not always an option
@@Ace117RA ya, we had no problem one time ina store then the next time they said no
Excelente producto
Do I need to be connected thru blue tooth to lock it ? Like say idk where my scooter is and it’s not in range but gets turned on can I still lock it?
I'm about to get my ninebot g30 soon, this video was really helpful. But if LPL is around, nothing helps.
My g30 is still strong after a year and a half
Legends say LPL is currently in in a war zone unlocking Russian tanks for the Ukrainian army.
@segway ontario
Hi! in the video do you use the small or the large etook lock?
The large! It gives you more room to work with
can you buyt External Battery for Ninebot by Segway Kickscooter MAX G30E II
what are the GPS things for scooter you were speaking of, please?
the remote lock idea does not lock the internal mechanism. (Throttle, alarm etc. only locks the electrics. A GPS option would be good or an Auto lock option if powered off . I do not have the serrial number does segway record it when you install the NineBot ap? a GPS locator would be good.
a sensor alarm does the trick too
I just bought a Kryptonite NewYork 1210 ulock and chain as well as a disk brake alarm.
I have the Niu Max, when you first run it, you need to register it. After that, if someone steals it and you have it locked, there is noway for the thief to unlock it and the wheels.
One of the reasons I bought it.
Nice one!!!!!!!!!!
Can I use the remote starter in Ninebot max g30le ii ?
Do you carry a remote starter for Segway gt2?
its availeble on amazon??
My personal opinion is that the app lock is better than the remote lock, because the app lock engages the brakes, the alarm and notifies you.
Also just a basic observation... as the remote lock is so easy to install, it should be easy to remove if a thief is well versed in stealing personal scooters. Is there was some self-destruct mode if you attempted to remove it while locked that would be another thing.
The app lock unlocks when you are not close to your vehicule so absolutely useless when you are further away than a few meters.
I got stolen with app lock was on and Ninebot lock was attached. It happened in 5 mins…
When locking a scooter outside, it's best to pair an angle-grinder resistant lock like the Litelok X1 with peace of mind theft protection like StableCare.
please write the name of remote starter for scooter xiaomi 3 and where can i buy it officially
Thank you
Hi,buddy just want to ask I have the segway ninebot kickstarter F40a will that remote pack fit my one. I'm willing to buy it.
Hey! The remote starter does work with the F40 :)
Is E-lock for special scooter of for all scooters ?
can i use the remote starter on a g30d 2 ?
U lock is like the holy grail for me...for my bike. The best form of protection for my scooter is to just take it inside where ever I go lol
So you're going to get groceries while also carrying your scooter? Or sit it by you while you eat inside a restaurant? You'll go to a music venue or art gallery and take your scooter inside? Good luck with those
Thank you😊
You’re welcome!
I just picked up a 9bot max 2nd gen for retail price. Thought it would be gimmicky because it's not one of those suspension scooters. Reviewers placing cheaper scooters over it in comparison. And I still bought it.
This thing gets me to and back from my 7 mile round trip to work with ease. I'm 5'10 185lbs and a full charge on Smode gets me 27 miles in very steep hills there n back. There's 2 hills where I get down to 6mph but it never stops.
If I can drive this 250 miles a month commuting, it pays for itself. If I can't, it almost pays for itself. Really not losing either way. Next year I'm going to add an external battery, replace the wire connections inside so they do not melt, and upgrade the rear motor. And maybe the following year I can upgrade the main battery and add a 2nd motor.
the wires just melt??!
@@akiisho if your Regen is set to max setting and your on a steep enough and long enough decline it can melt them
Just get a better scooter instead of upgrading
The remote control is out of stock. Are there other purchasing channels?
Please, I want a link to buy the electronic lock with remote control ❤❤❤
How many centimeters should it have at least the U lock ?
kinda wish ninebot came out with some of these features so they don't have to be bought from a third party, like the starter or the bluetooth feature.
Can I use the remote lock on E2 Plus?
Does it work for the generation 2 scooter
Nice tips! I wonder if they have a remote starter for the es4!?
Unfortunately, I don't think M4M ever made one for the es series. Plus now that the f series is coming out it's unlikely they design a remote starter for the es
@@segwayontario thank you so much! Do you recommend the es4? Haven’t event looked into the f series….
@@samrusso3134 Ninebot ES is plagued with issues. You'll have a wobbly stem, creaky rear suspension, blown control board and worn out front tire all within the first ~1500km.
Pick another Ninebot. The Max is excellent but some find it a bit too big
That thumbnail had me in tears laughing.
Unfortunately I have ran into a few stores that will not allow you to bring them in even in a shopping cart what is extremely stupid so I no longer shop at those stores because of that and they got a negative review on Google
That's a bit entitled don't you think
@@archkull absolutely not! I feel the exact same way as he does and I will not shop anywhere that they won't let me bring my scooter in. You clearly have not had your scooter locked up somewhere, like a public library in the city I live in, and come back outside to two police officers and security guards for the library standing there, with thumbs up there collective bungholes, and my scooter was GONE...Right in front of all of that "law enforcement." Entitled?? You probably have a car don't you? For some of us a $300 scooter is all that stands in the way of being raped - for the 3rd time - riding the Metro home from work. Maybe I should introduce you to my rapist... You seem to have similar values. Entitled... I've heard it all now.
I have a mi scooter pro 2, even though the theft rate of scooters and bikes here is low, I have an alarm and a lock, whatever the Thief does the alarm will go off, and the lock will slow him down. I had a bike stolen before
Hello i have a question about remote starter. Is it compatible also with Xiaomi pro 2 ?
I believe this is the one you would need: more4motion.com/products/m4m-remote-control-on-off-for-xiaomi-kick-scooters?_pos=87&_sid=b77f0a6e8&_ss=r
What I don't like about the remote starter is that it's invisible. I feel like when it comes to locking your stuff, making it visually appear locked plays a huge role. Plus, I feel like if that form of "locking" becomes more popular, thieves who go exclusively for these scooters will figure that out really quick after they quickly carried it away. But yeah as you said anyway never rely on the e-locking methods alone and always use SOME kind of physical lock at the very least. These things are expensive so unless you're shitting money better put the same effort you brought into finding the right e scooter into finding the right physical lock. I think it's non-negotiable.
Yeah, we’d recommend more physical locks from different brands to increase the safety and security of your device. The remote starter, however, is a bit questionable in some areas (i.e., if you manage to lose the remote, etc). For more information on the remote starter, please contact M4M at more4motion.com, as we only distribute them.
I use U-lock as it showed in video :D But 99% i don't leave it outsiden,i take it with me in all stores.and here in Norway store don't say anything,cuz we show respect and don't ride in the store therefor they respect we bring it with us innside :D
4:27 it is also super easy to dissemble and steal it. Just takes 60 secs to remove the screws and remove the attachment.
Can the Remote Starter work on a Wolf Warrior X Pro
My scooter has a seat and anyone can also steal your handle bar from the stem so how do you lock this up?
i am a little tecnically challenged. where do i find the link to "m 4 M"?
if you need a lock a Kryptonite Mini7 is a really good choice
Can I get that remote starter delivered to Arizona?
does the remote starter work on max G2 please? thanks
Cheers from Belgium
Unfortunately, it does not work on newer scooters like the MAX G2 because of updated technology and firmware.
I bought the most folding convenient scooter so I would almost never have to lock it... But if I have to set it down for a moment I have an electronic lock and a Kensington lock... If it's good enough to keep someone from walking off with a laptop then it will keep someone from just walking off with my scooter as well .. and the alarm will make sure I know about it.
I accidentally locked my scooter in the app Segway Segway ninebot app and I cannot slide the unlock icon down to unlock it. Help
Will you have the seat accessory for the gt2 ? Because I don’t have time to stand I have the seat for the ninebot max
Hopefully! We will see when the GT becomes available in Canada. Still waiting for an ETA on that.
@@segwayontario ok cool
I use 2 ubolts, one to lock the stem to the platform and one to lick the platform to an immovable object and I added a screamer hidden in the battery case
Any suggestions on where to hide an Apple AirTag on the scooter model you demoed?
I had one taped outside on the stem under the handlebars - thief found it after about an hour and tossed it - next time I am taping it in the stem...place hard to find and not visible - would have saved me $700. I have had three scooters stolen - two from the garage - once when a friend's kid left it unlocked in front of a store.
the first cable lock or what you call it, why do you not put it trough the front wheel?
That cable lock doesn't fit through the front wheel unfortunately
I just put my u lock in the tire spokes wether it’s locked to something or not the scooter isn’t gonne move much with it on there
Why not have a lock pass through build right into the frame?
I was thinking that too it would make life sooo much easier 😊
The weak point of the elock folding lock are the joints. Seen a test on them. The bars are very hard, but the joints can be easily cut with a boltcutter.
A sawzall or cordless grinder would open any of these in less than 10 seconds.
If a real thief wants your scooter, he's gonna get it.
You'll deter probably 95% of passerbys though until you develop a pattern of parking/locking it up.
Sawzalls and cordless grinders aren’t exactly discrete burglary tools. Where exactly is this hypothetical scooter parked? The middle of the desert?
@@pamelasantini8783 there’s videos on CZcams of lots of things. Doesn’t mean it’s true or wasn’t set up.
Can you send me the Remote Start product link? I couldn't find any suitable products on Amazons. Thank you for this useful sharing post. ❤
Unfortunately, we don’t offer the remote starter anymore, as it’s not compatible with the other scooters we sell (i.e., MAX G2, F2 Pro, etc.), including supply and demand at the moment. So sorry about that!
in which part of the scooter could I install in an apple air tag?
Check out the M4M Smart Hook (link in description) - alternatively removing the baseplate and taping an air tag next to the battery works!
could just unscrew the top and chuck it in
@@marlonbancroft4592 yeah 🤣
@@marlonbancroft4592 wouldn't the metal shield transmissions from it?
Maybe a bag or those backpack style ones.
Good thing to have two locks . They wont bother with those when there are plenty of other scooters to steal.
Always! You never know who's out there spying on your scooter. The more locks, the merrier. You can always bring it inside as well!👍
Nice video 👍🏼 Would you share a link to the remote starter?
Absolutely! There is a link in the video description :)
@@segwayontario Hi, I don't see the link anymore
@@damontescott1973 more4mini.ca/products/remote-control-on-off-for-ninebot-max-g30-and-g30l-kick-scooter
We live in the US. I tried to order the remote start but it looks like it is for Canada only? Any guidance on how to order this to be delivered to the States? I tried looking for other remote starts but was unsuccessful. Great video!
@@lmheys0403 Hello - I also live in the US and I'm having trouble finding a remote starter. Did you ever find a solution? Thank you!!
Does that remote control also work with the xiaomi e scooter? The connector should be the same.
Good question! M4M has a different product page for the Xiaomi remote starter so I'm going to assume it's slightly different. Here is the link: more4motion.com/products/m4m-remote-control-on-off-for-xiaomi-kick-scooters?_pos=80&_sid=09e92e03a&_ss=r
You forgot disc lock option. Much better than app lock and very easy to carry and setup.
Google Tchipie motorcycle disc brake lock. It's a $20 little gadget 2/3 the size of your palm that you can clip to your brake disc's (or anything really). If you move it there's a warning chirp, then the loudest alarm I've ever personally heard in my life blows up and won't stop until you turn it off with a key.
10/10 would reccomend
The ETOOK Folding Lock is no longer showing up. Also will this work on the Segway G30P ?
It may have needed to be restocked at that time, but we have a bunch in stock in-store or at segwayofontario.com! And yes, these work on the MAX G30P.🤠🛴
Im wondering if the remote control is legal to use in Germany. They are really strict in the law when it comes to “modifying” things
Currently the only thing you can't do is modify it to go over 20 km/h, which is the limit for e scooters here in germany.
Itll likely void your warranty though.
I guess its possible there could be an issue with the mandatory liability insurance you gotta buy to use an e scooter. But who gives a shit. They probably won't even think to check.
German regulations and rules are a constant thorn in my ass every day.
They made fucking using cruise control illegal on e scooters last year. Having to hold that throttle down nonstop on long ass bike lanes is giving me carpal tunnel or something.
And I cant risk hacking it because to get cruise control back id have to change regions and make the thing faster than 20 km/h which if I get caught doing they will fuck me up with a giant fine.
My Ninebot Max was secured below the wheel like shown in the video, the thief disassembled the scooter, disconnected some wires and completely bypassed my lock (New York Fahgettaboudit Mini). Took him about 10 min. If it's common knowledge to disassemble these scooters and quickly steal them then I'd say that's a serious flaw for even using this in public.
That's why I use 2 motion alarms that each scream at least 110 db and 3 locks (1 Sold Secure Diamond and 1 Sold Secure Gold) to lock up my scooter by its neck. Touch it once and it will screech and/or cutting the locks will require producing a ton of noise! In addition to that, I also cover it with a rain and sun cover that can be locked with a cable lock so thieves would not know what it is underneath after they already triggered the motion alarms by touching it!
would you mind sharing which motion alarms you use? ty @@chaxologist2961
Any recommendation for a real GPS tracker (not just air tags) for Ninebot F40?
Ask your cell phone provider about GPS trackers, that way they can add one through your phone plan. Otherwise you'll have to pay some other monthly fee to another company for the cell service used to locate the thing.
Problem about physical locks with keys are, they are pickable. Had to find it out the hard way
Yeah except with the new update to the app it seems like universally everyone says it doesn't work and you run the chance of it blocking you out from having access to your own scooter for good
Anyone know if the M2M remote start would work in a Segway E22 E44 Kick Scooter?
For more information on the remote starter, please contact M4M at more4motion.com! We only distribute them.
The police should bring out bait scooter's.
Lmfaooooo
Where do I find the remote starter? The link doesn’t work.
Cheers for your question, Carlos! The link isn’t available on our website anymore because the supplier we used to frequent doesn’t offer them anymore. However, you can still get them in the U.S., but keep in mind that nowadays, most Segway-Ninebot devices utilize the Segway-Ninebot app for quick locking and other functions.
Hello, nice video. I have a problem, maybe you know how to solve it? I locked my scooter with the app, then accidentally deleted the app, reinstalled and now i can not connect to the scooter anymore, what can I do? I always see a message, turn on the scooter and try again. Thank you!
Hey Ricardo, sorry that you’re experiencing this issue!
Try downloading the app again, select “more functions”, open up “Segway-Ninebot Lab”, and connect to Apple FindMy. If that doesn’t work, reach out to Segway Technical Support.

Is there something on the scooter that can be removed to make it unrideable? I once forgot my bike lock so I removed the wheel skewer. Hard to ride without it.
It's pretty tricky to remove anything from a Ninebot Kickscooter. Nearly everything is built as part of one piece.
It's too bad the battery isn't removeable that'd make it even more difficult for the thief to get away plus it would make the scooter less desirable because the battery is one of the most expensive components.
@@segwayontario Surely you must remove the wheel to fix a puncture.
@@diggler2002 yeah but its not really viable to remove and reinstall your wheel every time you gotta go inside a building and leave lmfao
@@archkull Skewer, not wheel.
Will the remote starter work on the Ninebot Max G2?
Hello - I have the same question. Did you receive an answer?
Best tip: never use a cable lock.
why?
@@TylerDurden_420 they can essentially be cut with literal scissors.
So very very insecure.
I would snap a cable lock with me bare hands just pull it a few times
