Kugoo Kirin S1 Pro (2022): The Most Affordable Dual Suspension City Electric Scooter?

[@jimpmc]

What is the difference between Kugoo and Kugoo Kirin? There are different S1models under each. Are they different companies or manufacturers?

[@EmanuelND]

Today I reached 400km with my scooter and by far its going very good and smoothly. The only disadvantages is the electric brakes and while walking in roads with rocks the front spring makes some noise and the rear plastic also touches the wheel and makes noise.

[@TechMishka]

Awesome achievement!Keep up the same pace.

[@ven8578]

Are the wheels really loud when riding on a flat surface and does your scooter still work?

[@wezter96]

Is there anything in the €300-350 range you think would be a better choice than this?

[@tudor74277]

Hello. What is the difference between kirini s1 pro and s1 pro? Wich is better?

[@MrxOnurb]

Today i got this scooter . I also have first version of same model (kugoo kirin s1) Compared to first version the build quality is better and the ridd is smoother and the rear shock apsorber improves much ride quality. The only minus is the electric brake which is much less powerfull then in first generation. Is it possible to adjust the power of the brake ?

[@TechMishka]

I don't think so. If the battery is fully charged - the brake is beter responsive.

[@tiago1998vdt]

The power downs that you are experiencing with the scooter is related to the motor controller I had to disassemble mine and solder a tiny resistor that was factory bad welded, and when you passes a hole, it looses contact and you loose control Hope it helps

[@tiago1998vdt]

Also the app that works with this scooter is called hh-scooter

[@TechMishka]

Thanks for the useful comment! Much appreciated ❤️

[@FoxAlky]

for me suspension give me a lot more comfort than pneomatic xiaomi tires, but I driving a lot on dirt roads and in forest

[@TechMishka]

Sounds reasonable

[@MohammedElshafeixXx]

Agree with you about drawbacks, also water resistant ip45 is poorly, you are brilliant Mihail as usual 😍👍🏻

[@TechMishka]

Perhaps the IP rating here is better than the one on Navee N65. But who rides scooters in heavy rain? 😎

[@aras667]

IPx5 is good enough for a scooter, x5 means it can be splashed from any direction at lowish pressure without being damaged. Unless youre driving trough a flood and getting blasted by water jets then youre more than fine

[@garagesvn7]

Hi. I just bought my first e-scooter which is the kugoo kirin s1 pro and I saw a bluetooth sign in the panel gauge. Can you teach me how to use it on my phone? There's a lot of kugoo app on the app store i don't know which is which. Thank you.

[@TechMishka]

Better check with Kugoo's support. While I was testing it it didn't support Bluetooth.

[@tiago1998vdt]

Scooter turning off is a problem on engine controller. Mine had that too, i disassembly the controller and found a component with a bad solder on it. Resolder it and no more problems, its now with 300km

[@TechMishka]

Oh, good to know! Thanks for letting us know.

[@PirukaDrums]

Having a kugoo kirin s1 pro myself, I can say this review is a little poorly made and some points don't correspond to reality. Some information regarding battery and top speed is wrong. Battery is 36v 7.5ah, not 42v and top speed can be easily changed to match the 25km/h legal max speed with 6 clicks on main button. With 5 kilos less than the video autor (90kg - 85kg), I tested that emergency braking at max speed is about 4 meters and not 7, even in my downhill braking tests it goes for less than 7 meters ( light downhill ). Solid tires are for sure less comfortable, but, because of the suspension, driving feel and comfort is superior to other escooters in the same segment with only pneumatic tyre and no suspension. I can confirm the down sides refering to hill climbing and lack of stem adjusting, even tho it feels comfortable to me (1.85meters), I think that to tall riders it will not. The rest of the video is very good, nice editing and filming, good job in thar department.

[@x3mera]

I have the opportunity to ride the scooter my self from time to time. To be honest it’s not the best choice even in its class. Don’t get me wrong it is ok for children when accompanied and there is an easily accessible option to set the speed limit but not exactly comfortable for an adult. I tested the electrical braking and did it for a little bit more than 7m. I weigh 95kg so I am the heaviest so far that has commented :) I am 1.90m and the handle is in a discomfort position for me. The space for my feet is kind of narrow as well. But hey, it got me to the shop and back!

[@PirukaDrums]

@@x3mera it seems that 1.90m its already to high for this scooter, I agree. I don't agree its only for children, I guess in your country every adult is 1,90m+ and 90+kg haha. Minus 5cm handlebar height than xiaomi mi 3 ( adult scooter), similar continuos power and battery capacity (max peak power has considerably less 480w to 600w) wich is noticeable going uphill with heavier people. So you might consider the xiaomi 3 a kids scooter as well? Regarding braking, It's weird that you're getting more than 7 meters like the video autor, my opinion is that you guys might not know how to properly brake because it doesn't make sense getting 3 meters more than a 5 to 10kg lighter person. I might be wrong (physics wise) but my braking tests in asphalt* gave me way better results, so, no offense, but you guys probably are scared to push the brakes xD. This scooter is a very capable last mile option with less maintenance than other already low.maintenance scooters. Its more oriented to lighter ( lighter than 80kg, preferably 75kg, my 85kg are already too much for steeper hills, but i had a friend with 73kg doing the same hills) and smaller ( smaller than 1.85m) adults, wich is perfectly fine because the other options in the segment can't get me uphill without loosing speed anyway, must upgrade to 500w+. This is not a kids scooter, no scooter that achieves 30km/h with an adult on top of it is. Unless you are trying to say kids - younger generation of teens and young adults (15 -25 years).

[@PirukaDrums]

@@x3mera oh I only now noticed that you said electrical brake, if you only braked with electrical brake, the 7 meters make sense. But the escooter also has the mechanical brake, and it is supposed to be used with the electric brake for maximum braking power. Extra edit: the rear suspension is adjustable and I found that for heavier people you get a more comfortable and less noisy ride if you tighteen it a bit according to your weight.

[@TechMishka]

Thanks Calex for the idea around the suspension. Will try it out.

[@x3mera]

@@PirukaDrums It is quite possible that I don’t know how to use the scooter properly. I never use the emergency brake, so this proves that. I read manuals and watch videos but unlike you and Michael I am just a noob so it was an opinion based on couple of rides experience.

How can I use the app please help me i cant find the Bluetooth botton

[@houseofdragonfans]

Hello, I have this bike but it makes a lot of noise when walking in front of the front wheel, is this normal?

[@TechMishka]

yes, if there are bumps - this creates jingling noise. Most Kugoo scooters have similar behavior..

[@Mateusz_501]

hello today kugoo kirin s 1 pro electric scooter stopped for a while when I turned it on it didn't go instead of displaying km/h it showed me 2E moreover the rear wheel is braking when I came home I left it for 1 hour and wanted to turn it on I couldn't .

[@TechMishka]

Better bring it to a repair shop.

[@ZvolskyMi]

2E? The scooter has really small problem, you should always be sure that the acceleration control is completely returned up - learn to return it up by small preasure from down. This is important when the cruise control activates, because otherwise the control with some shake can turn off cruise control, which is not pleasant and potentially danger. And the 2nd impact is that if the accelerate control is not in the proper position when you turn the scooter on, it will display 3E. No need to restart. Just move the acceleration control properly up.

[@jauma375]

Is better than the Kugoo S1 Plus??

[@TechMishka]

They are about the same in terms of performance. The design and materials feel a bit better.

[@Darklord.]

I use this Scooter for about 1-2 years, probably I have reached more than 700km+ (Actually I dont know, but very much). It sais it can go 30km, but I could go maximaly around 25km, If you want to buy it, you shouldnt be more than 90-100kg. The Suspension is Very good and you can jump from about 20-30cm or more, but you shouldnt more than 90kg(it could rub the underside) and its Water resistent( I washed it couple times and it was under rain).

[@TechMishka]

Awesome to read your feedback. Thanks 👍

[@ivovass195]

It's a good budget option with some attractive specs on paper, price, weight, compact size and good battery are very likeable but some drawbacks like no proper mechanical brakes and weak 36V 300w motor are deal breakers for me and so the search for a good budget escooter continues. What you think this vs a ninebot kick e22 vs mi scooter essential? The small batteries of these alternatives are a weak point but maybe an overall better package/value for money

[@niteblaster1]

Mine lasted 3 weeks then fell to peices 🤣

[@TechMishka]

You will hear a lot of different opinions about choosing the right one. Perhaps I've mentioned it before - but if I need to choose something for the first time, or make an important choice, I open a new Excel file, write down 5-10 priorities, and then put a score to each of the shortlisted models so that at the end - the choice becomes easy, Still - ti give an answer - I'll probably go for the Mi Scooter because of the many spare parts that are easy to find.
