The Segway Ninebot MAX G2 is potentially one of the best electric scooters of the year, and a great option for commuters and those wanting a lot of value for their money. I'll break down what I like about it and what I wish was better in this ride & review!

I bought this one for my husband because he has the one right under this one and desperately needs suspension!!!! thanks for the review! It made me feel so much better about the purchase!!!!

[@calgary2800]

I had the 1st ninebot, with no suspension. Only owned it for a few months, lack of power and harsh. Forward 3 years and just got the G2. VASTLY better imo. Way easier to live with and your body comes home not needing an aspirin. Great job Segway.

[@XABCX606]

I have had mine for about a month. It is my 2nd scooter. My first was a GoTrax GXL V2. Huge upgrade. I am 6'4 225 and it is a very comfortable ride for me.

[@videogazer801]

But is it ride height adjustable?

[@XABCX606]

@@videogazer801 No. The handle bars sit high.

[@videogazer801]

@@XABCX606 FML, I’m 5’1”. Segway is stupid. I can’t fit on it

[@Minsetti]

@@videogazer801 So how does it feel to ride it? Are the handlebars too high for your height?

[@videogazer801]

@@Minsetti Oh yeah, the handlebars are way, way too high when riding and won’t work out long term. Way too high

[@POVTruckDrivingDenmark]

Havent overheated on mine yet, but heard others say that its the regen that could make it overheat. Try putting it in low and see if overheating is still an issue.. :)

[@kanchello]

Can you please compare suspension comfort and ride quality with medium budget scooters? Like mantis 10 or vsett 9...

[@krazenomad242]

This is my first E scooter and I'm already considering getting the GT 2 as a 2nd one. I've put 55 miles on my G max 2 loving it so far nobody had to explain anything I just hopped on and scared the shit out myself till I got used to it 😆

[@prawnis]

bro dont get the GT2 man. Its one of the worst options for value. Your better off getting a Varla Eagle One or Apollo Phantom V3.

[@Xen.escooters]

@@prawnisas someone with an Apollo phantom V3, absolutely not, speaking from experience man, the gt2 IS WELL WORTH IT.

[@Xen.escooters]

Get a gt2 you’ll love it

[@GlitchingWithAlandi]

What a great review. Thanks.

[@MichaelMcAlexander]

I have not purchased this scooter but I wanted to say thank you for the excellent product review. It provided me insight into this category with strengths and weaknesses compared to the KQI series (which I will be reviewing next). 10/10 on this product review.

[@macky2green]

*_Please do a head-to-head comparison or a 3-way comparison between the Ninebot Segway Max G2, Xiaomi Electric Scooter 4 Pro and 4 Ultra, either here on your personal Channel or on Rider Guide. TIA. Cheers! RS always._*

[@kekenny6648]

Can you compare the Segway with the Niu max please? Thank you ❤

[@johnstover4584]

Just wait til cyber Monday to buy one of these. Hopefully they will fix the overheating or any other errors. I want to get one. But nothing is wrong with my ninebot max G30. Then it should be around 800 then.

[@beerussama7093]

$899.99 actually

[@pankajmistryin]

It also has indicators that was super important for me and the bell is loud and awesome. I prefer drum brake as it is not a fast scooter and at slow speeds disc brakes are dangerous.

[@DJIDudeX2011]

Is the front suspension adjustable? Plz tell me

[@horyzen1]

Can you review the Ausom Leopard scooter? I haven't seen many reviews on it, and I would like to see your opinion before buying it.

[@shawk904]

Which would you choose... Kqi3 Max or this G2 Max?

[@jorgelopez-vallejocastro6488]

Excellent video as always. Whats your opinion on durability ( suspensionwise). Thanks

[@phototristan]

Only neg. with this one is it's heavier than the G30 so not quite as easy to take with you or commute with.

[@RK9Rides]

It depends how often you are actually having to pick up your scooter. Even then, I can still carry this scooter around with one hand so it's not that bad.

[@tbonez8043]

Why couldnt Segway make it 48v instead of 36v? Niu's budget kqi2 is 48v. Once Niu comes out with a scoot with suspension I think it will dominate the commuter market.

[@christianbeaupre7989]

I think so as well. Same with ebikes, their first iteration is pretty sweet. I have the Kqi2 pro, my first scooter. It's been great. A bit slow, but very safe and sturdy. I'm at three months and a hundred or so miles, running smoothly .

[@RK9Rides]

They are supposed to be currently developing models with suspension from what I understand. Maybe quarter 4 of this year or early next year?

[@christianbeaupre7989]

@@RK9Rides Very exciting. Means I can skip on the Apollo City re QI issues. yay

[@capcom4eva]

It depends on the quality, price and weight.

[@elhadjisy19]

Great review, What would you recommended between this one and the kqi3 pro, now that you've tested both of them?

[@tucmox]

kqi3 Max has no suspension. Same for Pro? If so, then there is no comparison. I took my new kqi3 Max back to BB after the bone rattling first ride and traded for a Max G2. HUGE upgrade in ride quality.

[@jcandsv1]

Hi. F2 plus for portability or Max g2 ?

[@TheExile6383]

Anyone have overheating issues like I did?

[@RK9Rides]

I heard about that, but I'm not sure how widespread the issue is. I haven't had issues with this unit so far, but maybe in warmer weather

[@videogazer801]

Is the height even adjustable? Or is it only for guys 5’11” and up?

[@Orlando_Rails]

I’ve had it over 10 times. you are supposed to have the acceleration on Eco and then it will not do the overheating as much as if you’re on sports mode.

[@halluminium]

@@videogazer801 I'm a little over 5'8 and it's the perfect height for me. It's not adjustable, though.

[@car_tar3882]

My f30 has overheating problems had one where it overheated and I lost regen down a hill and I was new to I fell and slid down the hill shouldn’t have cheaped out

[@BaezLife]

Can you put dirt tires on these?

[@Hansky2008]

It's only 540 USD in China

[@Narinjas]

Interested in a similar review on the Fluid Vista, I am pivoting between these 2, but can't figure it out, If Fluid Vista would come with a dual motor of 500w front and the 1000w it currently has in the back, for $1500 while in price reduction, and $1700 with the upgraded battery, then i would choose that one, but i would really like a direct comparison between these 2, my complaint with the Vista is the fact that idk if you can have spare tires for if one brakes apart on off-road, I plan on using this as both a car replacement and car aid, for when you need to park at a far place from the location because of the lack of closer safe parking spots.

[@christianbeaupre7989]

Torn between this and the Kqi Max. I'm coming from a Kqi 2 Pro and am looking for better range mostly, and hoping not to push $1100 CAD. Any advice guys?

[@Patricio24601]

Thank you for a great review. I am debating between the Max G2 versus the P100s to commute daily 26 miles round trip. Would you be interested in developing a video comparing and contrasting the two? Thanks again for the great review on the Max G2.

[@steve-132]

get the p100

[@steve-132]

the g2 has better suspension but the p100 has more range,has way better brakes and is more powerful

[@Patricio24601]

​@@steve-132I purchased the p100s back in April 2024. It has been my daily commuting vehicle traveling about 20 km (12 miles) one way. I really enjoy it and am very happy with the purchase.

[@ironj100]

It’s known for having over heating problems . I had Researched before buying .

[@marshallb5210]

are they not cutting the bowden tube straight before putting on the ferule at the brake handle end? it looks jank

[@thomasK411]

Rk9 rides, why wont esg review the dualtron thunder 3? I messaged them and they said they have no plan to. Is there something im missing ?

What would you advise the kukirine g2 max or the ninebox max g2. Im looking to get a scooter soon and im confuse among these 2.

[@jamesarnold9799]

I bought 2 last night, these are amazing scooters.

[@DirtBoyTrilla]

Nice job.

[@raizdesuenos]

How fast were you going here?

[@michaelhuang4465]

Would you pick the Max G2 over the P65? if the pricing was the same?

[@S.H.1]

defo would. I replaced my P65A with G2 and the suspension makes a huge huge difference.

[@hunterfrederick2731]

Can this fit in a trunk?

[@capcom4eva]

Yes

[@Frostorm777]

4:32 I’d have to disagree, some of my best stops were on electric scooters with drum breaks…

[@OnesoulfirstorderTwolifetimes]

Have a look at the dualtron popular! Dualtrons version of segway and It looks amazing. I've seen it's review on a french channel from France and the guy absolutely praised it's performance and handling for the small scooter category. To me that's the perfect step up I've been looking for, coming from Segway e22e.

[@marshapelo9830]

It has an overheating problem.

[@videogazer801]

That’s a lie. Why would it overheat? SMH

Question i just bought this scooter and I need a helmet I'm looking for some professional advice because I'm not sure I should I get a full face or half face helmet because I'm will be riding on the sidewalk near cars going the max speed.

[@ap3401]

In our life's we need to be judges of our own needs based on own professionalism and those who drive around as. Are you already know all driving conditions where you would drive to make any judgments which helmet you need? I see a great problem with "I'm will be riding on the sidewalk near cars going the >". With such approach helmet did not save you!
