An Electric Scooter under $300 that's actually good!

  • Kugoo electric scooters are becoming more popular and with this new model, the Kugoo Kirin S1, they’ve simultaneously introduced their new electric scooter sub-brand, Kirin. The S1 is one of the best sub $300 e-scooter with just a few small flaws. Got it from: bit.ly/Kugoo-Kirin-S1
    To summarize, this scooter is fun to ride, durable and affordable, as it’s often just below 300 dollars and therefore a good choice if this will be your first electric scooter. The downsides are the display, that is hard to read in direct sunlight, the app that feels a bit redundant, stem is a bit bulky and twists while being folded, which makes it more difficult to carry it around compared to other electric scooters. But, once again, for price, I don’t see it as a big dealbreaker.
    One of the biggest improvements for this electric scooter is the folding mechanism. It’s now super easy and smooth to fold the electric scooter in just matters of seconds. Another big improvement is the steering wheel. It looks a lot better, premium and mature compared to its predecessor, the Kugoo S1.
    Interestingly, the motor is not found in the front wheel, but rear. This is something very uncommon, but I kinda understand and see why. This way, cables are not exposed resulting less issues I issues I assume where people hook the cables by accident and break their scooter.

    does it do well with minor offroad, like non asphalt with holes. does the e break have progressing breaking? like the more you hold the left e break, the more it breaks, or is it just full power right off the bat. And which one would you choose between kugoo es2 and kugoo kirin s1?

    Hey Martin, was wondering what you think is better, Kirin s1 or S1 Pro? Like the look of the kirin better, but the pro seems to be faster longer range etc, would I notice the difference?. I'm 82kg.. Just about to buy one and can't decide.. THX..

    Now here's a real review.
    If you've never had a scooter before and want to see if ud like it, this may be a good toy to have, play around, not care too much if its stolen even.
    It's made of cheap plastic, not durable at all. Because the wheel is made of plastic too just pray the road doesn't have a single uneven stone. It's so bumpy it ruins the experience.
    The break system is somewhat dangerous, unreliable and inconsistent.
    Due to normal usage, mine has suffered damage in the front wheel, which is now bend towards the frame and can't be fixed.
    In retrospective, i wish I would've invested just a hundred quid more and get a proper one.
