if you want to brake on a scooter, you half-squat your way until your body is above the rear wheel or even behind it a bit, then hit the brakes so hard... this way you have the friction distributed over the two tiny tires upon inertia during braking.

[@jonahcowans9073]

French German Mini Walker if you want a dedicated off road dirt bike Go-Ped experience. Mine tops out in gear 5th at 62 comfortably. That and I'll put fox suspension on it in a couple months

[@the_boies]

Love the scooter reviews. I personally own a Nami Burn E 2 Max, would be awesome if you got your hands on one of those!

[@SOL1C1T0R]

I enjoyed riding this. Acceleration was decent and regen braking was impressive, but the let down was those brake and motor cables sticking out, as well as the screen, which you couldn't see when out in full sunshine. Ironically, they made it brighter than the previous version two.

[@MrCentralDriver]

Regen is very impressive. Variable as well

[@dr.projectx5142]

Off road video on this. Was looking on eBay to get the motors and build the battery pack for it. Looks like a lot of fun. I'll do it once my chain drive motor burns out then upgrade to 3000w dual hub. 60v set up.

[@MrCentralDriver]

No off roading on these tires. Don’t trust them.

[@rexluminus9867]

​@@MrCentralDriver On the newer Vx4 phantom the're tubless self healing tires!!! Plus you can have off-road tires!!!🎉😂❤.Thanks Apollo for that.🫡

[@1SlipperyPenguin]

They need to add damper adjustment to the shocks, it’s way to bounce

[@InterventioN746]

Hope you get a Nami Burn E2 Max or the Kaabo Wolf King GTR.

[@oklarocks]

another great video, i wish i could afford an ebike :)

[@Sirvivalism]

Finally got tracking info for mine should be here on the 14th

[@MrCentralDriver]

sweet!

[@8_x_9.]

Did you get it & how do you like it? Thx.

[@Sirvivalism]

@@8_x_9. Oh ya got it back in September. Not had alot of miles put on it. I live in PA so winter time, but I enjoy it

[@teddy_123.]

Love it

[@MendezDroneops]

Nice I’m waiting for my scooter 🛴 order 2 weeks ago 😁 nice review

[@MrCentralDriver]

Have fun!

[@MrBalas3]

Do you think a riser could be added to the where the handlebar connects to the stem to make them higher?

[@rexluminus9867]

No,but it's very high.😊

[@jesusfigueroa5922]

i have it and it rides beautiful but i dont like mud flap

[@ABouyerProductions]

I really want to get this scooter. But I keep looking at all different types of reviews, Why is it really bad to go off-road at all on low dirt and medium to small sized rocks or wet grass

[@tarias1313]

I was thinking of buying the apollo Phantom v4 but hesitated. They advertise as v4 but it's really an upgraded V3. Instead I went for the Gotrax GX3.

[@anthonyrodgers6613]

Wonder if there do 60v v3 version😗

[@SurRonnie]

How does it compare to the varla one you had befor

[@MrCentralDriver]

more comfortable by far. not as fast

[@frankstocker5475]

$2,000, get rid of the cheap bell and install an electric one that would make the regen more comfortable. Tidy up the wiring. Change the cheap kickstand. Change the cheap rubber throttle & regen controls. Install a brighter headlight. I'm sure Apollo is aware of these upgrades. It would be nice for viewers to know what kind of after-sale service these companies give, so many just disappear into the wilderness once the scooter has been sold. Make a wall chart with a point system to give response time and customer feedback, can you call them or is it internet-only contact? & how do they handle any warranty work. You are doing reviews that influence customers to decide what to buy. it might be good for your feedback to the manufacturers to help improve their sales with what is good & negative to improve the product. Doing this you will arrive at 100,000 subscribers, no one else is doing it. Regards, Frank.

[@MrCentralDriver]

you can find warranty information on the website. sometimes warranties are different depending on product or its a set warranty for all products sold off the website. I can't give feedback on any issues if i don't have any but also companies will work with me asap because there is deadlines and timeframes so my service will be different. you would have to look for videos or jump on the group pages to see any issues people had and how the company handled them

[@sergiolandz6056]

Alright so let me give you the straight up stuff on this scooter, im at 860km on it and so far so good.. BUT, you have to check all your bolts at least once a week, check your tire pressure every 2nd or 3rd day, make sure you grease every single moving part because if you dont, you will start hearing creaking noises and so on. Also the disc break that comes with this scooter are total crap, and are probably bent, but the good news is you dont use those, you use regen breaking, and make sure she is all the way to the max with your acceleration once you get used to the scooter. Besides that, i never had any issues what so ever with this scooter, seems to be ok, a little pricey though compared to what is offered on the market right now. IF you can get a Vsett go with that... Apollo scooters is ok but not that great.

[@MrCentralDriver]

Thanks for letting us know some in depth detail from a rider of this brand.

[@noko1877]

i can relate to you cuz this link bar system doesnt even have bearings so metal to metal isnt great :DDD this guy hypes abt everything that he gets sponsored on :F

[@hank01000]

Not having hydraulic disk brakes on a scooter that goes over 40 mph is sadly the deal breaker for me that and the kickstand plus I hear theirs a lot of upkeep with this model I’m going to get a kaabo instead insane off roading

[@MrCentralDriver]

the regen is the brake you'll use almost 90% of the time

[@8_x_9.]

The regen brakes should be used most of the time!!! They save your pads.Use hydrolic brakes mostly for emergency braking.😊

[@Slayeranon]

My phantom come with hydraulic brakes I ride it top speed all time with zero issues

[@RaiderNation-North]

You don’t need hydraulic disc brakes or mechanical disc brakes…people are underselling the regen braking throttle. I have my regen brake throttle set on 3/10 and I never use brake handles to slow or stop. Until you try the regen throttle for yourself you won’t understand. Other scooter brands have regen but you have to use disc brake pads to get the regen so that’s fn stupid. I will NEVER need to change brake pads EVER.

[@GhostRider5]

Its would be nice to have one! Its been 2 months and i still haven't received mine soon to be 3 months. Maybe ill get mine 11 days before Christmas maybe. Me being sarcastic

[@realMDizzy]

Just an FYI you're not supposed to use the regen when the battery is full.

[@MrCentralDriver]

Very true!

[@sergiolandz6056]

well whats nice is once you take off and use throttle, shes not full anymore.

[@realMDizzy]

@@sergiolandz6056 I believe the manual says not to use it until you are at 90% I think some people were having issues on the Apollo Facebook page with this.

[@8_x_9.]

​@@sergiolandz6056Don't do that soon!!! It can charge it up to soon than you'll have controller issues !

[@anacondahugs808]

🐍 For a FREE scooter it's great. But for the price they charge there are a lot of much better scooters. 🖖🤙

[@oneway_sting]

regen is that good you don't need cable brakes or even need to use them.

[@MrCentralDriver]

it really is!

[@dcspace7198]

You'd be nuts to travel 41 mph on that.

[@MrCentralDriver]

I did perfectly fine

[@dcspace7198]

@@MrCentralDriver well be careful.

[@sergiolandz6056]

i hit 70km/h on it and no problem.

[@Scream4Cheese]

You think that’s fast? There are scooters that can go 60

[@dcspace7198]

@@Scream4Cheese it doesn't mean you should do it. Have you ever heard of a crash Dummy? It'll make you scream.

[@ruachpneuma5638]

is this better than the varla scooter?

[@MrCentralDriver]

Not in speed and power but comfort yes

[@JSythe]

14:58 Such a big what?

[@ashpunting]

You can just put the scooter in the Tesla and take it anywhere and have fun 😂

[@MrCentralDriver]

yep!

[@HelloICyou]

Yeah screw the braking better if you just use regen to brake bump it to 10 😅

[@MrCentralDriver]

it really is, just a learning curve

[@sergiolandz6056]

i only use regen break, never touched my disc breaks yet, and the disc breaks came in bent.. i was not impressed.

[@chronicalcultivation]

frankly, you haven't had enough scooters to make the claim in the title.

How about for a 260lbs guy?

[@MrCentralDriver]

with a max load of 300lbs your gonna be getting the least performance out of it. should still be comfortable tho

[@Edge5055]

Not trying to go for speed. Just something more in the commute side of things while having fun.

[@8_x_9.]

​@@Edge5055Apollo City pro dual motor. 😎 😊

[@michaelcharach]

You probably want to stick your but out and kind of lean back when testing the breaks.

[@MrCentralDriver]

The back brake is the one sliding so I don’t think it’s gonna change much unless your thinking my extra weight on the rear will help the tire not slide?

[@michaelcharach]

@@MrCentralDriver more for safety sake. You don’t want to have the front break lock up and go over the bars…

[@MrCentralDriver]

oh yeah of course!@@michaelcharach

[@8_x_9.]

​@@MrCentralDriver Great video. It's an unfinished scooter with a high price.Sad.. .😮 Put more of your weight on the rear wheel so it won't slide so much at heavy breaking. The scooter weight shifts towards the front wheel with your weight too. Be safe & healthy. 😊

[@ashpunting]

Bro, you're not wearing any protective gear gloves, won't save you, it only takes one fall to put you out of work. And that I don't want to see my friend 🙏💙

[@8_x_9.]

​@Herro12811Yes but only his shadow😂.😮

[@jdubdoubleu]

Ray in store is a buzz kill

[@Eat_Sleep_Shit]

The V3 is where the Phantom stops being a man scooter and starts becoming an appeasement to beginners. The incessant pursuit of regenerative braking is out of tune with the wants and needs of real riders, and Apollo is simply trying to pull in the youngs and stupids. Additionally, dont be afraid to wear some safety gear so your target audience of noobs don't learn unsafe riding practices directly from your videos.

[@bikelifegee]

No hydros pass

[@joshpointoh]

If you like everything else about a bike or scooter, brakes really shouldn't be a deal breaker. If you really ride it so hard you need that kinda stopping power, you can get a good budget 4 piston hydraulic set for 60 bucks. Upgraded brake pads for 20 bucks probably makes up it anyway.

[@bikelifegee]

@@joshpointoh I have a nanrobot ls7+ it came with everything

[@sergiolandz6056]

i dont even know why you would use the disc breaks when you have regen breaks that works just as good if not better ??

[@anacondahugs808]

🐍 Too Bad this company has zero aftersale service. If you need service they send you to the local lawnmower repair guy.

[@MrCentralDriver]

awe

[@anacondahugs808]
