E-Twow Booster Electric Kick Scooter Video Review

[@2205ilya]

*Battery life is great **Latest.Bike** Scooter . Love the different driving modes. It’s got a little headlight and taillight too. Gets lots of looks haha*

[@darkgael0]

I have the basic E-Twow. It is a marvelous machine. I am six feet two inches tall and weigh 195 lbs. When I commute from my home in Brooklyn, over the Brooklyn Bridge into Manhattan, I often use the E-Twow. With a pack on my back, i probably weigh 210-215lbs. The machine carries me easily....though i do have to help a bit when going up the long slopes to the Bridge walkway. Kicking helps wonderfully....without a lot of work, an occasional kick adds 50% to the speed. On the flats, it will hit that 30km/hr (18mph) speed. I have size 13 shoes and have no problem standing on the E-Twow deck. Note: about brakes.....the main brake is the little lever on the handlebar, not the footbrake on the rear. The main brake is magnetic (and regenerative) and is located on the front wheel. The rear brake is for emergency stopping, though it does engage the front magnetic brake also. I have an EcoReco also which I like very much - one can do a wheelie on an Ecoreco - but it weighs 10 lbs more and with much smaller tires, it does not handle bumps as well as the E=Twow.

[@medarkduk3904]

Mee too, but I have an booster model

[@turbolenza35]

I'm 205 lbs naked... is that ok?

[@djkosmo8785]

what about Xiaomi Mijia M365? know anything about it/what do you think about it?

[@bdubq3653]

I just wanted to say that your content is very good. Excellent actually. Found you on youtube and I'm almost through watching all your videos in just two days. Thorough content. I like how you go into detail and your access to makers/manufacturers/retailers is unique. Much appreciated. I won't hesitate to say your videos are the best reviews of the scooters I've been watching. Top notch. Continue the good work. Stay safe out there. (I was trying to just email you personally through your website, but it said that this was spam).

[@RCDevotee]

I have the Booster model and your review was very accurate. I use it commute about 16 miles each day from home to BART and then BART to work. It is the perfect last mile solution for me. It is extremely portable and powerful for its size. I have owned folding bikes, folding electric bikes and another electric scooter. The Ecoreco M3 is more powerful but definitely lacks in range compared to the Booster. The Booster is also very easy to trolley around and it fits in my gym locker. I had about 60 miles on the Ecoreco and compared it to the Booster over a week period. I sold the Ecoreco the following week. I have over 700 miles on my Booster and it has changed the way I commute to work and go about my day to day life in a major city.

[@RCDevotee]

I have run it in pretty heavy rain and it is very slippery on some terrain but manageable for anyone with enough coordination. I also have the Razor Lux A5 kickscooter and the Booster has better traction but both are slippery. If you have good balance and don't take turns too aggressively you will be fine.

[@thabg007]

+Robert Fontanosa so you liked this better then the ecoreco M3/M5, i was look at and this e-twow, the etwow is even lighter i see, but i was wondering about it being FWD vs the m3/m5 RWD. dont know which one to get

[@RCDevotee]

+thabg007 The e-twow is much more portable and has better range. I had the M3 for a week and ran it in identical conditions to my S2. The S2 handled everything better. As long as you have decent balance and coordination front wheel drive should be fine.

[@thabg007]

+Robert Fontanosa ok, yea i already have a large electric scooter, but i need something light weight for that short trip from subway to office, i guess the etwow is the winner due to its smaller size and lighter weight

[@rcnacura]

How well do you think this would do for some of the moderate hills in sf? I'll be using to do roundtrip from roughly a few blocks above Castro station to 16th street Bart for my commute and save a bunch of time not taking (broken) muni. I'm 6'3 and 200#. Thanks in advance!

[@per-olamjomark7452]

On the e-twow webpage they state that the maximum load for the S2 ECO model is 110 kg / 240 lbs. So that is far better than 75 kg /165 lbs. Anyways. Thank you for posting this, it certainly is an interesting electric kick scooter. :)

[@Hotplate1]

The max load is 110kg or around 242 pounds,not 75kg or 165 pounds.

[@Quieromuchachas]

Hotplate1 yeah I was like that's the weight of the average guy, 165. That didn't make sense.

[@AnGhaeilge]

You should invest in a shoulder mount, or something for your cam. You're going to get hurt one of these days filming like that :)

[@dha588]

I'm contemplating on buying one today .

[@Stefonewheel]

Did you get it?

[@dha588]

Yes I bought one.

[@dha588]

i'm 150lbs and it goes uphills without a problem. the 500watt front wheel gives it a lot of power and way more than necessary. its very fast and like i said, no problems on any hills; especially for your weight.

[@dha588]

no.

[@willybilly99]

does speed changes on certain battery level or stays same on max speed for example..100%=20mph 80%=18 30%=12mph

[@arup021281]

The best review is this one. It help me to understand the function. Thanks

[@alex-E7WHU]

Just bought the gt version and it is fantastic. 👍

[@fuzzyip]

What's your opinion on security? I plan to lock this outside every so often when running errands and shopping. It looks like all the bolts are exposed and this thing completely comes apart??

[@CarleyEspritPhilip]

My front wheel came off. Anyway know how to lock it back in place?

[@XxLowellxX]

Where did you get that cool white helmet?

[@bharattaker]

hi can the eco model do 40kms in a full charge as per the adversiment?

[@djkosmo8785]

what about Xiaomi Mijia M365? know anything about it/what do you think about it?

[@thomascao6153]

Would you recommend this over the Glion Dolly for traveling to and from public transportation?

[@alphamav]

Might mention that the locking clip could also hold a shopping bag or something.

[@laurentkm3]

Now that you've had the scooter for a while. How is it holding up? Any problems/issues?

[@mekdev]

How would you rate this against the Ecoreco. Overall package with weight and portability. It seems like the less zippy-ness is well worth the weight loss.

[@mekdev]

btw the e-twow is actually the Zoom Air 2 based in Singapore. The are not new to the scene at all. facebook.com/zoomsg

[@jeezosdude867]

How do you turn on a literally 90degree path

[@jykugoku]

Man I really need something like this , I don't have a driver license And I live a near village close to the city 25-+ KM that for the most part is connected with a special bike runaway +-20km along the highway . Most of the times I finish work at 1 am and have to wait there till 6 am until the public transport metro, opens because the village doesn't have a night bus service connecting to the city , do you think I could use this at night to come back home for about 25km mostly flat and driving it on the bicycle runaway for the most part or is that a bit impossible to do , wishfull thinking?

[@dha588]

My commute evrey morning is 11 miles. Would the UScooter be sufficient enough for me?

[@Stefonewheel]

Yes. And then some

[@fk1911able]

and where is the rearlight?

[@nose-0117]

Hola😉... Me gustaría saber SI EL e-twow booster 500w ¿Responde rápidamente "los frenos del manillar" ante algún peligro en cuesta ABAJO MUY PRONUNCIADO?...Antemano MIL GRACIAS por tu respuesta😉

[@AG-Radium]

Will you try the MonoRover R2?

[@colombianflag717]

Your reviews are amazing thanks for sharing the video.

[@outlaw03d]

wheel size?

[@jsmorris6533]

If you go to the U.S. website at www.etwow.com they have videos of how to open and close scooter which there is a trick to you must push slightly forward on hadlebar as you push red lever with foot which was done for safety, how to change from km to mph and how you can either do a kick start or start immediately with the throttle. On the site it states the scooter has a one year warranty on the scooter and 6 months on battery. They also have new enhanced hand grips on the Booster model so they are much easier to fold now.

[@jsmorris6533]

+E-TWOW SCOOTERS (E-TWOW SCOOTER USA) Booster model generates up to 500 watts, he is correct. The older models were 250 watts

[@Hotplate1]

E-TWOW SCOOTERS It's 280w , max peak is 500w

[@decaere-scooter7784]

Cool, you must ride it once

[@sohjunlong1435]

u can set the speed limit for my e-twow scooter is 35km per hour to fast for meu can set the speed slower just turn it off hold down brake tigger n turn power on contiune to hold down brake n press 5 time on the drive part n let go two of it the speed will change to 20 plus km per hour

[@ren4sif]

Hi.. chould u please tell me where u buyed ur E-twow? what webside? tnx

[@sohjunlong1435]

+Tranquilo RAH i use LAZADA app to buy

[@ren4sif]

mm I'm from Norway dude :/ that app doesn't work for me. but thanks for answering me

[@richardlimnh]

I have the eco (cheapest) version. The solid wheels are very bumpy and have almost zero grip when wet. I had to get my rear wheel changed to air filled ones to gain more stability. I still have to go around wet corners very slowly or I will skid! The battery quality is highly variable but KEY! I bought mine (display set) with 6 mths warranty. The first battery was excellent (>30km on 1 charge) but after 2mths something blew & I had to have it replaced under warranty. The replacement sucks & I struggle to get 20km out of it. Think I have to either make my own battery pack or come up with a way to qualify new packs at point of purchase. FWIW, a new battery pack is around 25~40% of the cost of a new scooter! Otherwise, an excellent scooter that I can take on our local MRT -train-bus system. My daily commute is around 10~15km (generally broken into 4x 2.5km segments).

[@tonygarcia08001]

Hi Richard! WOuld you tell me wich rear wheel did you bought? and, it is affect to max speed? Thanks in advance

[@megatyussuf5513]

try a velocifero

[@SebastianPappG]

75 kg was the max load? Now is 125 kg hehe... Also that space where u can put your legs is larger and better in 2018 version.

[@Voltreco]

Good escooter!

[@manasyt]

Hmmm yeah.. I have the Inokim Light which costs the same...High quality...4000 km after 2 years...I use it every day...main problem is tyre punctures...but the ride is very stable, even in the rain... ;)

[@wahkaoz]

Hi, where can I buy your helmet?

[@thakiid1013]

why do the brushless 800 dollar scooters still pale in compariosn to gopeds esr lead acid

[@Andrei-qt4uz]

nice review i dropped a like

[@christophehofmann8546]

Looks a speedway mini 4 pro of minimotors

[@quosetoujours]

You may not imagine what you can do with it ... For the curious and the adventurous, here is the scooter equipped for long distance trips. 4000 km to the North Cape: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rGWUmYGkr6qtmtE (Activate the subtitles because the video is translated from French)

[@bcrash11]

I have this and when it works it is great, broke 4 times already. Now it won't run at all

[@decaere-scooter7784]

What a bad experience, was that problem with battery?

[@jmastaice]

I really just want to see how it performs and the only camera footage you have of it actually being used is straight down.. Hardly any frame of reference.. I appreciate the effort that goes into these videos but please: more good video of actually riding it and at least a little more condensed talking points.. Great job though keep it up!!

[@zaminhuseynov9201]

its 250wat on the front, not 500

[@decaere-scooter7784]

They have 3 types of motors 500W is Booster

[@littlez9534]

cool 30kph

[@medarkduk3904]

I have a sport model of my own

[@medarkduk3904]

Oh, actually I have the booster model tho

[@codmott286]

e-two-w, not et-wow

[@megatyussuf5513]

in malaysia

[@tayb504]

Maybe put your feet in the proper position...

[@skyline44512]

Cliff notes: It feels dangerous, is too small for most adults (weight capacity and deck size), and yet costs as much as some much better engineered scoots.

[@DD-d6d3]

JortsRider the weight capacity is actually 250 lbs

[@megatyussuf5513]

csooter

[@aaron___6014]

I'll wait til they're $250.

[@willybilly99]

you'll will be in hell watching down & saying when will this scooter price go down lol

[@starrychloe]

It will never get there. Look for one with lead-acid batteries.

[@fazlee712]

they go for between $450 and $700 in Singapore now (313 USD to 488 USD) so not too terrible

[@valentinla1305]

Get yourself Xiaomi m365. Own one. Love it. Top speed: 25kph, range: 30km.

[@skyline44512]

Not made to handle even the weight of the AVERAGE American man (and I don't mean obese). Front heavy gives it a rougher ride and I worry about flipping forward. Just not nearly as beefy or solid feeling as the EcoReco, and I hate the brake. Well, I'm 200lbs so I probably shouldn't have even ridden it. Maybe good for a middle schooler. Do like the light and horn for sure.

[@peter130476]

I don't know, I'm 220 lbs and I love it. Yes, I am careful not to ride on rough terrain but for Bucharest sidewalks (which on average are nowhere near the ones in Western Europe) this thing is perfect for 10 mile trips. Well, Bucharest is quite flat, not many inclines. I have the newer Booster model (Booster Plus). Crazy expensive for a poor Romanian like me but I hate buses and I hate Bucharest traffic with my car, so this and my Chinese e-bike (which I also love) are my only options (except in winter, which can be Alaska-like cold in Bucharest).

[@tonelsh]

electric ride review??????? spent less than a minute riding it (with terrible vt) more time talking crap about the packaging and shi*

[@XxLowellxX]

Where did you get that cool white helmet?
