I figured I'd comment since I own both the Teewing and the Kukirin. I have both and to be honest they are almost identical minus the paint. I've had them appart and there are small differences like nut and bolt selection between them can be different. The battery from a bms and cell configuration are the same however I noticed the controllers were slightly different. Charging, range and speed / power are so close you wouldn't be able to notice a difference. I weigh 220lbs and am 6ft tall, it goes 35 on flat ground wide open but mixed riding I regularly average 38 to 45 miles per charge but there are not alot of hills where I ride. I fit on it just fine and is a comfortable ride suspension wise. I put red loctite on anything I don't plan to ever remove and blue on everything else. Mine has never fallen apart, had a bolt or nut come loose or given me any issues in over 1100 hard miles on and off road. I have never had an issue with the stem or lock ever. I do have a wall plug that limits charging to 12 hours as to not over charge and I have had literally no issues. At 500 miles I upgraded my rotors and pads, I lubed all bearings with Bones Speed Cream(Skateboard Company) and applied loctite red and blue where needed. The controls are easy to use, you can multi press the light button 2x 3x and 4x to turn on or off different features instead of the touch screen. Something Paul didn't mention is the scooter has cruise control also. You have to enable it but once you do If you hold the throttle at a steady speed for 4-5 seconds it will set the cruise. Braking cancels. Is it the best scooter ever? No, does it get the job done for a great price? Yes. Its fun to ride, very stable, comfortable and really shines at cruising in the 23-28 mph zone. If you don't mind the weight, and plan ahead for charging it is awesome in my opinion. My only gripe is if you want to upgrade the brakes it can be difficult. Both calipers are on the right side in a mirrored configuration and 140mm rotors are kinda small. You can fit 160mm without issue but would have to find a mirrored set of hydraulic calipers with 2pin connector levers. I added new 140mm rotors with a different compound pad (not resin) and can stop on a dime and it will lock up the rear wheel even with the mechanicals. I also added 2x led projector lights for night riding cause the included light is... Weak Haha. but that's it. I prefer the color of the Teewing so that is the one I ride. Sorry for the long winded rant but wanted to provide some real world experience to the mix.

These scooter models are made at the same factory as KuKirin, and KuKirin scooters are popular in my region and in other Russian-speaking countries. Their main focus is speed and battery, but at the same time they save on everything else, which is why there are stories on the Internet, for example, about how a person's wheel broke while driving or how these scooters' batteries catch fire... In addition, they have no waterproofing at all, which, by the way, was not mentioned in the review. Therefore, if you want to constantly repair your scooter, as well as risk your health and property, then buy these models, and as for me, I'd rather not ride fast, but I'll ride safely and calmly. I heard from one scooter repairman that there has not been a single case of battery fire in Segway scooters in the world, and also that they almost never break down and do not require frequent maintenance, so the choice is obvious for me.

Thanks so much for the feedback. The spec for water protection is IPX4, which is the lowest we've seen on scooters other than having none at all. I'd agree Segway scooters definitely have an edge over most other brands when it comes to build quality and safety. They have a lot more engineering dollars to play with and are very conservative with the performance of their scooters, which also helps reliability. -Paul

This is so true. Lots of reviews miss the most important thing about scooters and its reliability after long time ownership. My second scooter was the Segway Ninebot G30P and it was incredible. The only issue I had was punctured tires. My 3rd scooter was an emove touring which just kept having maintenance problems and the braking cable connector snapped on me which could have been really dangerous. I decided to buy another G30P because I missed feeling safe.

These two scooters are marketed in Europe as Kukirin G2 and G4, with different colors. What was not said in the test is that they are cheap because their reliability is 0. They cannot be used in the rain because they constantly get wet. There is no mudguard at the front, and you will be covered in mud from the back in the rain. The steering wheel is prone to drizzle. The bearings and brakes are made of cheap crap material. A Segway G2 is a reliable scooter that will cover thousands of miles without failure, in any weather.

An excellent review, Paul. I really enjoyed this one because these two rides really reshape the single motor landscape that we're used to. I lean toward the GT2 because of the stem construction. Kukirin also uses that double I-beam, bolted construction on at least one of their models and it's notoriously disliked. Even with loc-tite, they tend to loosen up and if ignored too long, have even disassembled while riding the scooter. As you pointed out, that stem latch is about as non-reassuring as any design available today, a very odd design considering the liabilities. I could live with it but I'd have to cut or 3D print a block to wedge behind that push latch. It would requiring the removal of the block to push that latch inward. I fitted wood block painted black or rubber block might be ideal as it would friction fit that gap. It's nice to see work being done in the single motor segment. I'm in AZ and most of the places I ride are relatively flat. I do go out of my way to find hills but I'm typically doing that on a dual motor sport. There's been a trend toward torquey scooters like those from VMAX but they all seem to limit out at 24-25mph. Even though these scooters from Teewing don't accelerate and climb as well, higher sustained cruise speeds and the ability to go faster, are often the measure of how much I'll enjoy a scooter in the long term. It's why I still own my Emove Cruiser S. Much of the time I cruise around at 17-19mph but can zip along a stretch at 31+mph if I need or want to. A faster scooter ridden slower is more efficient that a slower scooter running at or close to its max. I love having the "headroom" (Paul will get that term) of a faster scooter even when that speed potential isn't in use. I don't thank you enough for all the work you do at ESG but it's sure appreciated. It's a huge part of my weekly intake of everything electric scooters.

@@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide You absolutely did mention the unsprung weight up front and I was definitely tracking with you. You mentioned being able to pull that front end up at will. I also like how carefree & stabby you can be with the throttle, right at the apex of 90° turn that you had to trail brake into. On something like the Klima, for example, I have to finesse the throttle carefully at that lean angle. Haha! I knew you'd know that term as you seem to have a brain that's dialed into engineering and statistics. So cool about your amp hobby! I had three solid state amps at one time, my dad giving me his old Marantz receiver, kicking off the interest. I found an inexpensive McIntosh MC2105 locally in walnut exterior that matched the Marantz and had them stacked in a cabinet with an old JBL SA-660. They were run through a switching unit where I could listen to them on different speaker sets...haha. When the prices went up I sold two pieces to fund other hobbies. Small beans compared to the equipment you mentioned though. All that Mark Levinson stuff is amazing. P.S. Love the longer videos btw, no need to shorten them too much.

The GT4 has hydraulic shocks that really work well. In fact I’d rate the over all suspension feel as an A. They feel like some of the better adjustable-damping shocks I’ve felt, but the damping isn’t adjustable. The GT2 doesn’t feel quite as smooth, but I can’t tell if it’s just because I’m too light. I kept topping out. I didn’t have time to try adjusting the preload other than determining that there isn’t enough room to just grab the spring/adjuster by hand and twist (you’d be surprised. This works on some scooters). I’d give the GT2 a B for suspension. The ZT3 Pro also gets a B. It’s similar, but with longer travel and a lower spring rate. Perfectly sprung for my 165lb weight off-road. But noticeable lack of oil damping. It gets a B off-road and a B- on road. The Ninebot MAX G2 gets a B+ on road and I haven’t tried it off-road. The MAX G2 would be an A- or an A if the rear shocks were as good as the front. -Paul

The X also claims to have motor power of 500W x 2, where the Mantis V2 has 1000W x 2. That said, motor power is the world's least reliable spec in terms of predicting how a scooter will perform. The Mantis X has an 873.6 Wh battery, where the Mantis V2 has 1,092Wh. The Mantis X appears to have cable operated disc brakes vs the Mantis V2's hydraulic discs. So there are a lot of differences. At $1,299 for the X or $1,599 for the V2, I'd go for the V2 because for me, if I'm going Dual-Motor I want something that's going to scare me a little when I turn it all the way up and the V2 will do that.

Something to keep in mind is that even scooters from the same factory can have a variety of spec differences. For example the GT2 and GT4 come with EVE battery cells which are the same brand of cells Apollo uses. We've also tested "identical" scooters in the past and had them perform differently. A good example is the U-Scooters GT-Sport and the Fluid Freeride Mosquito. They use different brand battery cells and different firmware and have different prices and performance, even though they're based on the same basic model of scooter from the same factory. -Paul

For me it depends very much on what you are looking for: if you want apps, reliability (peace of mind), you should go for the zt3. If you want performance but basic build and if you like to improve (add accessories, or even improve the performance) your scooter, you should go for those gt2/gt4. Even though they are already good but basic, they are good platforms to work with. (Being an engineer, I prefer the ones that I can more easily work on (without apps) but if you don’t like that, maybe better to go for brands like Segway or Niu)

But luckily it does not happen much. The super long charging times and the not great display out in the daylight of this scooter are a bit negative here but they're single motor brilliant! And the price is great! So I really think this is a good value. Thanks again

Wow, three Apollo Go! I think that has to be a record.

The GT4 is pretty uncomfortable to lift both because of the weight and because the stem sort of cuts into your hand, but at this weight, stem-lifting isn't usually how I'd do it anyway. The GT2 is comfortable to lift by the stem though. I think a little rubber o-ring would fix the ribbon rattle on the GT2. -Paul

Thanks for reaching out. It's because we get our Kaabo scooters from Fluid Freeride and Voro motors and neither of them carry the Mantis X Plus. Honestly, I'd never heard of it until you posted, so thanks for that! Ok. I had a look. Wow, that's a really weird spec for a Mantis. The Mantis V2 from Fluid is a 60V scooter, which is what we're used to seeing, but the X is only 48V. The X also claims to have motor power of 500W x 2, where the Mantis V2 has 1000W x 2. That said, motor power is the world's least reliable spec in terms of predicting how a scooter will perform. The Mantis X has an 873.6 Wh battery, where the Mantis V2 has 1,092Wh. The Mantis X appears to have cable operated disc brakes vs the Mantis V2's hydraulic discs. So there are a lot of differences. At $1,299 for the X or $1,599 for the V2, I'd go for the V2 because for me, if I'm going Dual-Motor I want something that's going to scare me a little when I turn it all the way up and the V2 will do that. The X probably won't. I hope that helps! -Paul p.s. thanks for reaching out. I learned a lot about the Mantis X just now!

Wow, that GT4 is SERIOUSLY impressive, both as a single motor scooter and as a sub-$1,000 scooter.

Ha ha, that wasn’t shot for for the video, but for the thumbnail. We shoot video for thumbnails rather than still photos some times to catch the right frame. Ramier stuffed that into the edit! I allllmost deleted it. I wish we showed the 4ft drop! It’s the same loading dock I jump the Apollo Pro off of in a couple videos. -Paul

@@goldjoe I don’t think Ramier had it in frame since he was just trying to catch the jump for the thumbnail initially. I want to see the landing myself. I had to do this jump at least 5 times! -Paul

The swing-arms look super flimsy.

I thought so too when I first saw it. The GT2 has a nice brace welded to the back that makes it more rigid. The GT4 has two layers bolted together. I can usually feel it when a scooter is flexing and doing bad things, because as a former motorcycle road racing champion, I tend to ride pretty hard, but both of these scooters feel really good when ridden hard and I’m getting no unusual chassis flex. -Paul
