Can you please tell me which video that was? Great channel. I watched so many of your videos, I can't remember which one is the correct one anymore. Basically I want the lever closer to my fingers but I don't know which screw it is that I need to twist. I accidentally did the hydraulic screw and some of it squirted out. I'm new to this so please help me out. Thanks!

    im only a teen, so i dont have a lot of money, but ive been wanting a varla eagle one for a while now, but i dont know if i should buy an eagle one or an eagle one pro. i like the pro, but i dont think its worth the 600 price difference for only a few mph and a little more range. i also like the looks of the eagle one more than the pro, and i like the screen and throttle of the eagle one more than the pro, so i want your advice for which one to chose.

  • @jb_lofi

    Just offering my two cents- $600 is a lot of cash. Although the Pro has a much bigger battery, I've seen people say they do 15-17 mile trips on the Eagle One in non-eco mode, and both scooters have pretty good speeds (if parent approval/freak-out factor is a problem for you, your parents might be freaked out by you riding an e-scooter than can go over 35mph, which both models can do, and you should wear good protective gear if you go that fast ). The Pro has a slightly bigger tire but not by much, and I find 10 inch tire + suspension to be excellent already; it's possible for a scooter to be too big and inconvenient. I think you'd be better off saving the money and going for the standard Eagle One, and you can save up a little and get a better or more suitable one down the track once you know what suits your needs best. If this would be your first e-scooter, you're jumping right into the good stuff with either option. Good luck!

I would compare the solar P1 2.0 to the varla. Solar also has faster and more advanced ones for advanced riders like the ff lite which is my next buy.

    X2 on that though a lottt of people review Surrons! I've ridden one and used to want one until I road one. I have a 140hp Ninja 1000 and a 285 dollar Auvopro M365. The 285 dollar Auvopro M365 impresses me so much more than the Surron. What impressed me most about the Surron was the frame, I think what impressed most people was the frame/power/design -- even price(it was ~$3400) at that given moment, but we've come a long way since then. There are many more options in the market segment which are offering similar performance for less money. If I was considering spending 4,000+ on any electric vehicle at this given point in time, I would end up with another gas powered vehicle. I would buy a grom or a dirtbike or something. Far more reliable than the Surron as well.

    I’ve got the kQi3 pro but I’m switching to maybe segway ninebot f30 or similar scooter. The scooter is good, but its not for me. I have to constantly carry it in my car, carry it up the stairs, commute from building to building and so on. But the kQi3 is about 50 Ibs! Its best to stay on flat roads, and parks for endless top speed cruising, but not for commute, and they’re really hard to constantly pick up and store in the car. So far, its really been easier for me to walk than handle this scooter. Any suggestions for best lite weight scooters with decent speed, performance, and other specs?

    Be warned that if you decide to ride NIU KQi3 PRO after a day of rain and the road is still slightly wet, the scooter will likely shut down and your brakes will fail on you because that happened to my gf, twice, and now she’s scared of putting a foot on the scooter. Yes, we are both aware that you are not supposed to ride the scooter on rainy days or in puddles but the road was slightly wet as I mentioned in the beginning. We took the scooter to a local scooter shop because also when we would ride it it would make a really loud sound close to the brakes (we thought that was the reason why the brakes failed) and the guy said that everything was fine but the scooter as a “gum” that if gets wet then the brakes will not work. So yea keep in mind this. I also have the NIU KQi2 PRO and as for now I don’t have any issues. Oh! Let me also add that NIU customer support sucks.

    I have ridden my KQi2 Pro in rain many times with no issues. Many hours in the rain in a single day and the thing went on like a champ. The only issue is I have to ride more careful because I have to rely on the motor breaking to slow me down because it will spin out if I use the friction break at high speed.

    I didn't really want to wait for the Black Friday sale starting Nov 17 for the K3 Max, especially when Target etc. has had these in stock at 800(and are back in stock). Currently, an eBay seller has 100+ of these and is accepting offers. I just got mine for $750 which comes out to just under 800 including taxes. Definitely didn't think I'd be making an investment on an e-vehicle for a couple more years, but RK9 sold me on NIU/the Max. I can't really afford a car right now and don't want to buy a used one right now -- especially living in greater Boston and not living far from my job. With the extra range, I'm hoping to feel motivated(and not deterred) from taking this on 20-30 mile round trip journeys to comedy clubs in the area. I'm going to need to be distracted with laughter considering I'm in my 30's and just bought a scooter as my main means of transportation heh
