Can you test the Teverun Fighter Supreme next, mini motors sell it from their site as a pre order, it claims to be fast with dual 55 amp sine wave controllers. I wanna see if it can challenge the Wolf King GT Pro.

[@Moecherrie]

Where is Chuck Temple I miss him!!!

[@mrbubetube]

Have you seen the new SAY YEAH adult electric scooter model H08 Plus? It looks just like this GOTRAX Flex scooter, but it has a 500W motor, 36 volt battery, front and rear suspension, disc brakes, and an LCD panel with speedometer, odometer, and trip meter. It's under $500 on Amazon. Will you be reviewing that one? I'll put the link in the next reply.

[@catsthinkoutsidethebox]

Just ordered GoTrax FLEX - I used the money I saved using your code to extend my warranty. I look forward to using this scooter for local errands ! Ty for your review.

[@gc6238]

I need the pro model for that little extra range. Come on Gotrax! The XL Elite is still working and running some errands after 3 years. I highly recommend Gotrax for quality and design.

[@fabiodias5527]

I recently suffered an e-scooter accident with my Apollo Air - I tore a knee ligament and am currently recovering. I'm not riding standing regular e-scooters anymore. This GoTrax seated scooter is my #1 choice right now to replace my Apollo Air and help me start getting some mobility around my neighborhood. I'd say people usually would underestimate how helpful something like this is for people that have mobility issues. Right now the Gotrax Flex is sold out here in Canada, but I'm excited to get this guy to help me start running errands without having to walk so much with my recovering knee.

[@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide]

Sorry for the accident! Hope you feel better. -Vosk

[@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide]

We don't know yet, other than that it will have a bigger battery. I'm guessing it will have more power too. -Paul

[@pinkfreud62]

Looking forward to getting mine in a few days. I'm a 60 yr old woman and plan on riding on our bike/hike towpath which is hill free & out of traffic. There's a produce farm market on the path and I can put a few groceries in the basket. Plus, I'm only 5'2 so I think the height will be OK for me. Being my 1st scooter, I think the speed will be enough for me, too.

[@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide]

That’s amazing! Please let us know how you like it. -Vosk

[@Xvodcaleni]

Do you like it?

[@pinkfreud62]

@@Xvodcaleni Love it. Matter of fact, I put about 500 miles on it last summer & I bought the Gotrax Ultra a few months ago. Been riding it in the bike trails all summer with no problems.

[@Xvodcaleni]

@@pinkfreud62 I’m glad. Thank you 🙏🏻🤍

[@GinoOrthoBro]

This is what I need - something in between an electric bike and scooter. I only work 3.5 miles from home so this is perfect.

[@Tennababy]

It's strange there aren't more companies with products that cover this exact need, people would rather sit down than stand up on a scooter, and the old big regulars scooters don't have the same appeal as small mobility

[@upstateshenanigans430]

I'm a big gotrax fan, my first scooter was the gotrax Apex, amazing quality with a price that's hard to argue. Unfortunately it was stolen go I purchased a generic 600w scooter from Walmart with a claimed top speed of 28mph, I could only get it to go 23mph but after shunt modding the controller and replacing the 10ah battery with a 20ah it'll go 27mph but I'd still trade it in a heartbeat for my apex back, sure it only went 15mph but the fit and finish was great, cold and water never bothered it unlike my new one that is affected by a 10mph wind gust lol

[@Jonét777]

I think it did pretty well going up the hill by my house. If you know the Joker stairs in Bronx, NY, there is a large hill there on Shakespeare avenue, and it did pretty awesome going up that hill. Not sure what the incline is. Mind you, I'm only like 100lbs female.

[@ameliarhodes5000]

If I ever buy a scooter, it's going to be a seated one. Very happy with rental/"shared" scooters in the area. But having the option of Veo's seated scooter is really worth the slightly higher rates. They ride with an upright seated position and legs bent at no more than a 90 degree angle. Leg position is VERY important to me. If I want to tuck my legs under me I'll buy a Ninja motorcycle. I can't sit comfortably at the leg angles small seated scooters require. Veo's seated scooter is just a little under powered on hills but not too bad, I don't have to walk them, just zig zag a little on tough hills. Also the seat seems designed to spread your cheeks apart; no suspension increases that effect. But something like a Veo seated scooter with suspension is what I'm holding out for if I ever buy an e-scooter.

[@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide]

Very insightful! Thanks for sharing. -Vosk

[@ImReadyAyu]

I just bought the Gotrax Flex Ultra on Amazon and it has some pretty great upgrades like a bigger battery, 500w motor, both front and rear suspension, and a display that shows your speed/odometer for $100 more than this one. Will you guys do a review of that model at some point? It's really worth looking at for the budget price range

[@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide]

Possibly! No plans yet.

[@Loqque]

Not my kind of thing, but it wouldnt be bad living somewhere in semi-rural area and having to do a short trips everywhere. The price is deffo a plus for what it offers by the looks of it.

[@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide]

Very Cool! Thanks for sharing. -Vosk

[@kevinsellsit5584]

One reason this scooter is so good is that it is basically a copy of the Currie F18 scooter that changed the world forever. Okay so it doesn't have the "600W BMC MAC brushless super torque" motor that woud rip up hills, or the much better front and rear suspension, but it does have big wheels. Bigger in fact than the Currie's 12.5 inch wheels. Bigger wheels are always a good thing. Like you said these scooters are easy to ride, and the front wheel is not going to fall into the first tiny hole you find. Bigger battery and motor will be nice for sure, because this scooter is a comfortable ride and you may not want to stop.

[@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide]

Stay tuned for more news on the Flex! -Paul

[@JulianRides]

I like the basket on the rear good for groceries or whatever you wana put in it. It would be a nice feature if it had 2 kick foot paddles on the front just so if you don't want to place your feet on the deck. Big wheels less bumps to feel on the road looks like a mini bicycle I like it 👌

A wider basket would be nice. No way you're fittin' 50lbs of groceries in there. Is it even wide enough to fit a box of cereal? Good review. Cheers.

[@vincegunz]

I just got 2 gotrax flex ultras. I can not find any review videos on the ultra model. I would love to see you do one. The differences between the flex and flex ultra should justify a separate video. The Ultra has bigger battery, motor, speedometer, and dual suspension. Thank you for your work

[@jefflawrence3896]

awesome review GOTRAX has a lot coming in 2023

[@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide]

We are very very stoked for the entire GX series. G5 and G6 should also fill some key holes at those price points that are largely uncompetitive to date, especially as the Segway Max has become more outdated.

[@babakbabak5329]

Good deal! I still like riding my regular bikes because the whole idea of biking is to get an exercise. But for someone who wants an electric scooter w/ a seat this is a good deal.

[@gc6238]

I bought it and love it! It is not for hills, and I miss cruise control from my Gotrax XR Ultra even more than speed and distance. 15mph seems plenty fast and half the time I like to cruise the tree-lined bike trail far slower with frequent pauses. Observe Nature. Eat blackberries. Birds rabbits squirrels and a fox. **Does anyone know if climbing hills very slowly adds distance? ** I would appreciate any answers or links. Thank you.

[@lionelhowell4972]

Always good, and thorough info on the products. Razor makes one very similar to this. Whatever happened to Chuck on the show??? I wrote in the Razor before finishing the Video, there is a family in my neighborhood that purchased 5 of them

You guys have the best channel by far. I have worn down my knees by walking too much, and my doctor says I need to cut back. So I started researching eScooters, however I am short about 5’5”. I jumped on a Segway F35 at Costco, and the handle bars felt a bit high for me. I did look at your Taur review, and you mentioned it being better for shorter people, but I’d like to stay around $1000 or below (and there is a 2 month wait for a Taur). I am leaning towards the uScooter gt sport, for the lighter weight and quality; but I don’t know if it would be to tall for me. Any suggestions are welcome, Thanks, you guys rock!

[@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide]

Thanks so much for the kind words! Uscooters GT Sport is a excellent choice. You can also check out the Emove touring

[@Patricia-pq4jq]

Me too

[@SandaBoxing]

Get a Jetson Bolt Pro for about $350 at Costco. Weighs a little more but about the same size folded, but much easier to carry (even 1 hand due to the handle in the middle). I can carry it over large boulders, downed tree bridges, etc. on hiking trails not meant for bikes. 13-14mph (18-19 with the hack). Farther range when you peddle assist; and can still ride it like a reg. bike when out of battery. Going up very, very steep hills is also possible with PAS while this scooter, you won't be able to (or maybe you can do the kick scooter thing).

[@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide]

Very cool! Thanks for sharing. -Vosk

[@bryanwiley7345]

Curious if the pro model you mentioned will have an app on it? I have bought one scooter on your recommendations and looks like I'll be buying a second but will probably wait to see what you say about the pro and the price!!!

[@gaboccs2]

Well, looks like work from home will not be a thing, at least for me. So, I’m planing to buy one of these to commute that last mile from the train station to the office. The big question for me is: would it fit inside my compact sedan trunk? (VW Jetta 2017). 😅

[@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide]

Many other options for sure! -Vosk

[@larryc1616]

Great design for delivery/shopping/errands especially the 14/16in tires which all scooters should come with due to flats IMO. But, it needs minimum 42v, 800w and 20ah battery or swappable battery.

Hello . Thank you for your review but can I ask a question about these scooters. I know there are three models: the flex, campus and campus pro. My Mom how is turning 80 at the end of the month, is wanting something to get around the neighborhood/stores at her leisure. She doesn't feel safe in a car anymore but likes the look of these scooters. Wondering your thoughts on this or the different models that GoTrax has for a elderly person. Just trying to keep Mom safe but give her some independence for coming/going. Appreciate your time and feedback! Jess 😊

[@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide]

Flex would be safer than any scooter!

[@PSVitaFan]

You didn't mention the max Rider weight that the scooter can handle or the maximum distance the scooter can go if the person is at the maximum weight limit, I know from other videos that all scooters are tested with 150 lb person on a flat surface at the lowest speed and that's how they get the maximum distance

[@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide]

The spec on gotrax site should be correct!

[@Supasilvakilla]

@@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide there actually isnt a spec on the site. Its says 350 to 500w

[@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide]

@@Supasilvakilla The Gotrax site isn’t very clear. What I’m seeing is 350/350/500W, referring to the Flex, the Campus and Campus Pro (the Campus and Campus Pro versions didn’t exist at the time of our review). The weird thing about motor-watt specs is that they mean almost nothing. I dug into the database just now and plotted the hill climb time of the Flex and compared it with other scooters from 250w to 500w. The crazy thing is there is almost no correlation between spec watts and hill climb time when I graph this range. Many 250W scooters beat many 350W scooters up the hill. Looking at the data, the performance of the base model Flex is much more like a 250W scooter. It’s so fun being the only scooter channel in the world that has this data. :-) -Paul

Hey guys, I recently got my son the Gotrax G4 for my son but need ideas for my daughter! She rides my sons fine, but needs something smaller. Please help.

I saw an 8 year old boy ride the Flex scooter like a champ on his first ride and he loved it.

[@juliesanchez77777]

I heard the tires pop easily. Is it difficult to change the tire? For a woman???

[@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide]

A Tire shop can easily swap it for you! -Vosk

@@ESG-ElectricScooterGuideyou shouldn't have to go to a tire shop to fix a 14 inch bike tire

I have about 300 miles on mine & I ride on packed dirt & gravel hike/bike trails. There's some rough spots, too, and a couple gnarly trail bridge transitions but my tires are still fine. 😊

[@Chimedoodles]

[@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide]

Roadrunner is double the speed and battery!

[@Flyingboots1]

It's also 8 times the price of the Flex lmao!

Will you guys be testing the full suspension 500W version ?

Nothing planned as of now!
