I love your reviews! You put a lot of time and effort into them. Have you done a single motor range test on the 8X?

[@ADayintheLifeofMr23]

Ronald Prasad thanks a lot! Really appreciate that. I haven’t done a single motor test but just from the 2 tests I did with dual motors in gear 2 and 3 I don’t doubt the claimed range is achievable in single motor. In comparison single motor is SO slow vs dual motor. But like I said I think 30+ miles is easily achievable in single motor. Thanks again for watching and the comment!

[@americansoldier7776]

Great job! Just bought the 10X haven’t received it yet though. Sold my Evolve GT so my wife will ride with me now. She’s nota fan of skateboards...

[@ADayintheLifeofMr23]

Thanks so much! You are absolutely gonna love it! I grew up riding BMX so I’m a little more comfortable having handlebars vs a skateboard. But some of those electric skateboards look SO fun! You’ll have to let me know what you think of it when you get it! After almost 6 months with this thing I still can’t get enough! Thanks again for the comment!

[@donkeydem2824]

Love the bike trails throughout the sacramento area! I live in Antelope. Great video bro. My 10x is on the way. Let’s ride some time. 👍

[@ADayintheLifeofMr23]

Donkey D the trails really are awesome. That would be cool to ride together. Do some side by sides and see the differences. Thanks for watching!

[@donkeydem2824]

A Day in the Life of Mr. 23 hey I got my 10x let’s pic a day and time and meet up somewhere for a ride. 😎👍

[@ADayintheLifeofMr23]

Donkey D I’m working rest of this week but I have time off next couple weeks. We will find a day! I wanna race! Haha

[@donkeydem2824]

A Day in the Life of Mr. 23 Cool! Weather permitting send me a message here next week with a place and time you prefer. I am retired so any time or day is fine. If you want to race, YOU ride the 10x. I fear this thing!!!

[@ADayintheLifeofMr23]

Donkey D 😂 I know what you mean! I will let you know though. 👍🏼

[@rickdeckard9810]

Thanks, heard the solid tires affect the ride, have you noticed this and does adjusting the suspension help make the ride smoother?

[@ADayintheLifeofMr23]

Rick Deckard I haven’t messed around too much with the suspension. To me that part of it feels ok. What I have noticed though is they don’t grip the ground as well as I think air tires would. Corners you really need to use your weight more sorta like snow boarding or wake boarding, gotta almost plan for a little skid if you are going fast around corners. Some of the bigger bumps sound worse than they feel.

E Scooter Life thanks for the tip. Appreciate it!

[@Bob_Lee]

Great video. Where can I get one of these? Looks like everything is only pre order. Curious to know if anyplace has them in stock.

[@ADayintheLifeofMr23]

Bob Lee as far as I know revrides.com is the only place in the states that “stocks” them. It seems to me they just bulk order from China after they get enough pre orders. If you go on alibaba.com you can order from the source. Goods and bads in my opinion.....shipping may take a little longer than you would like cause it is international. But with that being said......price on revrides.com is $1600+. On alibaba they are 800-1000ish. Depending on the seller. But if you type in Zero 8x in the search box on alibaba a bunch of different sellers come up. Hope that helps! Thanks for watching

[@Bob_Lee]

@@ADayintheLifeofMr23 Yes That helps alot. Ive been doing some research and was just curious if you got these domestically. On alibaba... I can only find one seller, it is falcon pev but it states that the minimum amount to order is 5 units. Check for yourself. I would order one RIGHT NOW but I cant find any sellers besides them.

[@ADayintheLifeofMr23]

Bob Lee what a bummer! I did a quick glance before, I didn’t even think to look at the minimum purchase number. 😩😩😩 maybe try contacting the seller and see if they would work out a deal for just one. I was lucky enough when I got mine from RevRides to order RIGHT when they got a shipment in. I think maybe I got a cancelled order or something because when I was looking at the site it was all pre orders too. I only had to wait about a week. I really would recommend the scooter tho. Even if you do have to wait....it is SO worth it. I haven’t had this much fun getting around in a really long time!

[@Bob_Lee]

@@ADayintheLifeofMr23 I cannot wait!!! Im upgrading from a ninebot ES4. This is going to be my last scooter. No more upgrades after this one.

[@ADayintheLifeofMr23]

Bob Lee you don’t even know how close I was to getting the ES4! It was cause of the lime scooters. I really wanted something that went fast but it seemed like the ES4 was about the only one you could get that was readily available. I know I wouldn’t have hated it but I wouldn’t have been satisfied with 18 mph. I told myself this would be my only scooter for a while too......but I’ve seen a few videos of others that are coming out soon or are out that go even faster.....like 40+ mph. 😳😳😳

[@sergiosaavedrasalazar1504]

Hi, I also have the 8x. When I drive on a bumpy road, the front engine stops accelerating at times.I do not pass 30 km / h with a single engine. Does this happen to you too?

[@ADayintheLifeofMr23]

Sergio Saavedra Salazar I don’t know if it’s the same thing but I have experienced a time or 2 after a big bump it doesn’t seem like it wants to accelerate as quickly just for about 2-3 seconds then all seems normal. But with 1 motor in gear 2 I can go about 20mph or 32-33km/h. I feel like that is pretty accurate though because the top speed claims 35 mph or 56-57km/h so half that by using 1 motor and it is right around where you are. Thanks for the comment!

[@esrider7765]

The LED voltmeter on left bar is the display visible in sunlight ? Is it a red or blue LED ? thanks, I was thinking of fitting one as the built in one on thumb controller I cant read in sunlight.

[@ADayintheLifeofMr23]

ES Rider red lights and definitely NOT visible in sunlight. You have to cover the display so you can read it.

[@esrider7765]

@@ADayintheLifeofMr23 ok, thanks

[@ADayintheLifeofMr23]

ES Rider no problem! I’ve thought about solutions for it but nothing really makes sense. Probably the best option would be no color and no backlight like a calculator or something. But then at night it wouldn’t be visible. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@esrider7765]

@@ADayintheLifeofMr23 I have an expensive solution :-) Get a dualtron and LCD display :-) :-)

[@ADayintheLifeofMr23]

ES Rider haha. That could be one option. Honestly, I really don’t pay it much attention at this point. When in gear 3 full throttle the volts drop very quickly and then when you stop they are significantly higher than while you were riding. I think it’s good to sorta have an idea what the volts are but I don’t like relying on it since it fluctuates so much.

[@gregruby6918]

Lol I was just on this trail yesterday with my slow gotraxx lol

[@ADayintheLifeofMr23]

Greg Ruby it’s such a great trail to ride. During the peak of the shutdowns tho that thing was PACKED. Most of the time there will be people here and there but man, that was sorta crazy. I avoided the trail cause I’d have to slow down every few hundred feet to avoid people. But it’s stretches several miles, 8-9, from start to finish and has some cool turns. When no ones on it it’s a super fun little track!

[@gregruby6918]

@@ADayintheLifeofMr23 I'm buying a zx10 next so I'll be on the trail having more fun

[@ADayintheLifeofMr23]

Greg Ruby oh yeah! It’s a blast. I went riding with a friend of mine who has a 10x and it definitely has more power. I struggled to keep up. My tires are pretty bald at this point so I have to take it a little easier around corners so I don’t slide out. You’re gonna love that thing!

[@shaffermarkshaffer]

Is that the 18ah or 26ah model. And do you have any real world range figures?

[@ADayintheLifeofMr23]

Mark Shaffer 18ah. I’m actually editing a video about some real world range right now. I should have it posted in a few hours. But short answer is 20 miles would be a for sure 25 depending on terrain if you ride it how you would want to ride a scooter like this.

[@ptescreen18]

11miles fast mode 20miles slow mode, I have Owen mine for a few months and done 220miles so far

[@ADayintheLifeofMr23]

Greentruth420 thanks for the comment. I did a range test video as well and concluded similar findings. I have almost 500 miles on mine so far too.

[@patmccaffery1543]

I'm waiting for my 10x to be delivered and was going to put solid tyres on it, but then someone told me not a good idea.....what's your thoughts..??

[@ADayintheLifeofMr23]

Pat McCaffery tough to say for the 10X. Being that the tyres are 2” bigger on the 10X it could make the ride a little more uncomfortable. I know a guy who has the 10x and rides all over and hasn’t had an issue with flats. That’s what scared me away from the 10x was just even the thought of having to change those tyres. But it appears that isnt really an issue. It seems the tyres that come stock are pretty beefy. I guess maybe before I would make that change I’d first see how the stock ones perform. They might surprise you! Hope that helps. Thanks for the comment!

i want buy this e-scotter how it fells with solid 8 inch tires?

[@ADayintheLifeofMr23]

I love it. You do get a slightly more bumpy ride with the solid tires but the shocks on the scooter do a great job at absorbing some of that. I don’t ever feel uncomfortable on the tires. I think you will be very happy with it. Thanks for watching.

[@laurala90]

@@ADayintheLifeofMr23 What is the real range on 15 miles per hour ? what battery capacity is urs ? i want buy the one of 24 i need for about 40 miles i not need big speed only range

[@ADayintheLifeofMr23]

@laurala90 I have the 18ah battery. Mine claims up to 40 miles using single motor and gear 1. Top speed is about 12-14mph in that mode. I believe you could get close to the 40 miles for sure. I did a range test with both motors and gear 3. Top speed of 33-34mph and was able to get about 18 miles….so I think it would be safe to assume using less than half the power of the scooter would get you at least double that range if not more, especially if you’re getting the 24ah battery

Get a dualtron compact. Better than 8x

[@ptescreen18]

This scooter does not do 45 miles , I have the 18ah and it goes 11miles max in fast mode , I’d probably get 20 miles on eco going 7mph which is no fun at all

[@ADayintheLifeofMr23]

Yeah going less than 10mph isn’t fun at all. Definitely not why I bought this scooter. Haha. But 20+ miles in gear 2 is still a decent distance to do on the scooter. I feel like after 20 miles you’re tired of standing on that thing. Even 11 miles in gear 3 isn’t terrible. Sure it isn’t anywhere close to the advertised range but it’s still a decent distance to travel. I’d imagine not too long from now newer ones will be even more efficient. Still super fun tho!

A Day in the Life of Mr. 23 I use it for commuting and it’s excellent. It’s a little heavy but not too bad. The performance and ride offset that

[@ADayintheLifeofMr23]

Guillermo Pacheco I agree. Currently I’m living on the second floor of an apartment so hauling it up and down the stairs isn’t the most fun but like you said.....the performance makes up for it!

[@seanenright2212]

Abolute "Death Trap" this scooter is way to top heavy, you stand over the front wheel, the stem with upgraded collar is flimsy and has about 3-5" of wobble play and the top speed of this scooter goes 35 MPH? All bad..........caution!!! its like my singing coach told me you are not only off key your powerfully loud. That is the Zerro 8X, no only is it unstable, is fasts as hell!! Good Luck

[@ADayintheLifeofMr23]

These types of comments intrigue me. Who do you think you are? No where in these videos do I make any suggestions that you yourself should buy this scooter. Nor do I say or even imply there is no risk to riding the scooter. This comment is of no value. This is your jaded opinion most likely generated by your lack of skill or ability to manage these devices safely. I have almost 1000 miles on this scooter and it is not a “death trap.” There is absolutely not 3-5” of wobble after you upgrade the stem clamp. So again I’ll ask……who do you think you are that I would actually care about your terrible opinion? This type of comment and negativity has no place on my channel. The crazy thing about these videos………you don’t have to watch. And to be honest I don’t want people like you watching my content. Did your music teacher ever teach you that no one cares about your negative opinion either? Maybe just stick to music since that’s nice and safe for you. There was no reason for you to comment this. If you feel this way……….keep it moving. You will not be missed. I promise you! ✌🏼
