Ninebot Max G30 Has a video on UA-cam showing how a guy in Vancouver was riding in the rain and it was PERFECT on the inside! So I really want to see it's big brother able to handle the Vancouver weather before I can say it's better! Here's to hoping that the suspension does not interfere with the Perfect rain proofing!
It’s also 10lbs more, larger and 200 more than the original. The extra weight makes a difference when carrying the scooter which is smth everyone does if they commute
@segwayontario that is not the point. When you post a video comparing two models, you get more credibility if you list all pros and cons for both models.
G30 for portability. G2 for comfort. I'm leaning towards G30 as it's easier to carry around. Also where I live there's like 500 bucks difference in price.
Sorry for the delayed response there! We have heard about this and it should be patched up. You have to download new firmware to your device via the Segway-Ninebot app.👍
Thank you for your comment! The maX G30P weighs approximately 41 lbs, while the MAX G2 weighs 53.5 lbs (that information and more is available on our website under each item). Also, it all depends on your commute! If you're in the GTA, come on by! We offer test rides on both of these models. :)
Thank you for your support and good question! The MAX G30P seat doesn’t work on the G2 because the deck is in fact a bit wider. Time will tell whether Segway releases a specific seat for it in the near future.🤠🤞
I need answers for 3 questions if you answer positively I am buying a G2 this month for sure Question 1: Is this Bike only for Summers? Like can I ride it in Rain and Snow? Question 2: Are this allowed to carry in Public transport like ttc and subway? Question 3: How safe it is to park your segway outside for 3hrs minimum? What safety precautions I should take?
Great questions! 1. It is not recommended to ride your MAX G2 or any electric scooter in the rain or snow. You can if you’d like, but if you choose to ride in these conditions, please make sure your nuts, bolts, and ports are closed/tightened. Also, it’s always important to wear a helmet and go a safe speed/speed limit in your local jurisdiction. 2. If you choose to carry your MAX G2 or any electric kickscooter in public transit (i.e., the bus, subway, or streetcar), make sure you fold it down and stow it away by your feet, so it’s not in the way of any passengers. Segway-Ninebot devices are “UL certified” and have a safety sticker on the side of the device by the charging port, in case anyone gets curious. 3. If you park your Segway-Ninebot scooter outside, it’s best to use a minimum of 2-3 different locks, as thieves will try anything to steal your scooter, no matter the time of day. We carry a lock called the “E-took” on our website at segwayofontario.com, which is able to thread through the front wheel of Ninebot MAX series scooters, in addition to other exterior parts. Having said that, it’s best not to leave your scooter out at night, rather just take it inside instead. We hope these tips help you out! 😄 - Mikey
Great question! The advertised top speed of the Segway-Ninebot MAX G2 in North America is 35 kph. However, the top speed differs from country to country outside of Canada and the U.S., based on local jurisdictions. Hope this helps! :) - Mikey
I just ordered a Segway Ninebot Max G2 for $699. That seems like a good price. I ordered that plus an URBANMAX C1 Pro for just $494 for sitting and cargo/shopping. Have never ridden a scooter before so this will by my first after doing a lot of online research. I am buying a big house in a much nicer neighborhood with plenty of sidewalks and nearby shopping so will help me and my non-driving roommate.
We would not recommend modding your Segway-Ninebot devices to go faster than what they are designed to go because of the change in voltages. The MAX G2 has a top speed of 35 kph (adjustable from 32-35 kph in the app).
“Unlike the Max 30p, the Max G2 has …” You didnt really go over the pros and cons of the Max 30P. Im more interested in portability as I would like an E-scooter that I can roll along like luggage on a paved trail for 10-15 miles while my wife pushes the stroller, then I can simply ride the scooter back to the car and drive back to pick up my wife and kid. Do you recommend a scooter for that?
Our apologies for the delayed response! In terms of your portability question, you can certainly roll it around like luggage for a period of time (even while it’s off) and ride the scooter back to your car as you please. Though, keep in mind that the MAX G2 is 53.5 lbs (a bit heavier than the G30P) when lifting it into your car or if you plan on carrying it up flights of stairs. Let us know if you have any further concerns!🤠🛴
Hey! Got my G30P yesterday. However, I'm not happy with its suspension. Do you think it's really that bad for the body to ride along Toronto's bumpy roads? Would you suggest me to exchange it for G2? Or could you give some practical tips to take the minimum impact?
Hey, thanks for the comment! The MAX G30P doesn’t have suspension. There are a couple ways of going about this. 1. We’d recommend either bending your knees to minimize impact on your body while riding along bumpy roads and/or going slowly. 2. If you’re not 100% satisfied with the MAX G30P, you could always return it and buy the G2 instead. - Mikey
@@TheHackityHack we do install Monorim shocks on the MAX G30P, not Sharkset. However, it’s worth mentioning the following: 1. By going this route, you’d void your existing warranty with the manufacturer, Segway-Ninebot. 2. We don’t sell Monorim shocks, so you’d need to purchase them from Monorim themselves (purchase price + taxes + shipping). 3. If you had our technicians install the Monorim suspension kit, we charge $120 for labour by the hour ($10 plus tax every 5 minutes). Hope this helps! 👍 - Mikey
The G2’s suspension is definitely a big upgrade on the G30P! However, if portability is a question mark, we also offer the F2 Pro. Powered by a 900W rear wheel motor, this electric scooter is roughly 20 lbs less than the G2, has front spring suspension, turn signals, Apple FindMy, an electric horn, 32 kph top speed, 55 km range, and a bell. We also offer test rides on both of these models if you’re looking to compare them up close! 🤠🛴

Good question. Check the description under “Ninebot MAX G2 Battery & Firmware Notice”. Current G2 firmware is subject to change, so we’d recommend keeping tabs on that. Otherwise, Segway claims that the MAX G2 battery has short circuit and overcurrent protection, double protection from overcharging, and temperature protection among 7 mechanisms as part of their Smart BMS specs.
Then get the Apollo. Ninebot is its own thing and should continue doing their own thing. Not everything should be the same cause then you run out of options when there's only one option. You get it? Or are you still wanting everything to be the same bland product?
@@specunit9274 surprisingly no. It eats the same amount of juice with a single or double motor. Dual motors are useful for when you live in an area with a lot of hills. It keeps the speed
@@deathbydeviceable I see. Well maybe they will keep upgrading the elevation climbing power without the dual motors who knows China companies always have their ways
I really want this G2 model but it's illegal in Sweden, maximum of 250W power and 20km/h to be classified as a bicycle, meaning no helmet and no extra insurance needed. You wont get stopped ever by police everyone is driving these 500w 30km/h scooters here. The problem is when it get's stolen, the home insurance company wont give you any money, in fact i bought my E2S model a month ago, 250W power but unlocked model, goes 30km/h. And it got stolen yesterday, i had a really bad lock on it, should have bought the best locks, anyway now i lost those 500 euros. I'm leaning towards bying another one same model but the limited to 20km/h model, it sucks because that's a bit slow but unfortunately there are these low life people who loves to steal these, and yeah it will feel better having one that the insurance company will compensate me for if stolen.
If its actually stolen isn't there an app to detect the location of the scooter? Idk it's heavy and a lock should suffice from it getting stolen unless the person is smart, very smart.
@@specunit9274 I dont know if the more expensive ones has it but this one did not, i know some models has a key with a chip inside, and without that key it wont start, so that's also nice, i did buy the same model limited, and i bought the D1000U lock for almost 300 euros, and nobody has tried to steal it yet, so my advice would be buy an expensive lock.
So sorry about that! We get countless questions from those across the world in multiple countries, saying that their Segway-Ninebot scooters are limited to a certain speed. It’s not just you. But, these are regulations and we have to abide by them. Just fyi, we’re a locally-owned, independent Segway-Ninebot retailer from Toronto, ON (🇨🇦), not the manufacturer, Segway-Ninebot. - Mikey
You’re right. The horn is a little questionable but that’s a Segway-Ninebot manufacturing issue. There’s nothing we can do, other than advise you to install an additional bell or horn if you aren’t satisfied with what’s already on it. :)
Yes! It depends on what you're looking for! If your daily commute has you treading over lots of bumps, we'd recommend the G2. However, if you're riding along the bike lanes with minimal bumps, we'd recommend the G30p. Let us know if you have anymore questions!
Great question! After looking into this, apparently, there's an issue with acceleration on the EU MAX G2 models (those ones self-accelerate), not the CAN/U.S. MAX G2 models. If you have any further questions, you can contact Segway's technical support team by email at technicalsupport@segway.com.
