Thanks for the review. I just got a used one and not sure how this function. Appreciate your throughout tutoring in the beginning. your video help me to decide this is the one! Cheers!
I just ordered one of these, supposedly I'll be getting it in a few days. Speed isn't important as long as it can haul my 200lb butt back and forth to the grocery store that's a mile away. I'll return to this video next week and give my two cent opinion.😁👍
@@ColinLeung The Rival scoot arrived early. It took longer to unbox and read the instructions than it took to assemble. I charged it till the green light appeared then gave it another hour. The deal I got online wasn't fantastic but I only paid $375 CDN tax included. Now for my review: The only complaint I have is my agility dealing with bumps and puddles on 8" wheels. The machine performs better than I expected but I haven't tried any hills yet. At 27 lbs it's no problem hiking up a staircase. After only a few days of use I give it 5 stars!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I got this as a birthday gift and I love it , I never had one so idk much about them , it goes fast but I only use it to ride around my neighborhood or park
Hello, it should be okay if he's able to balance on a scooter, and has good throttle and brake control. He can ride on a lower gear to limit the max speed until he feels comfortable going faster. I advise wearing adequate protection as well (helmet, elbow and knee pads as necessary). Thanks.
Hi. Thanks for this. I have just received an upgraded version of the GoTrax from my husband. I've read the manual but have one question: I fiddled a bit with turning on the power and looking at the display, etc.; my question is this: (it feels stupid) -- must I turn on the power button to make the scooter go -- or is it just for the display data and headlight/taillight? I would assume so, but am used to scooters that don't have a power button. Thanks.
Hello Diana, thanks for the question, and it is not stupid. The power must be turned on, and you may need to push off on the scooter at least 3mph before being able to use the thumb throttle to turn on the motor. The electric functionality will not work unless the scooter is turned on and throttle pressed. Let me know if you have any other questions!
The gotrax and wheelspeed are both currently $300 after coupons on Amazon for Black Friday. Between the two I'd prefer the Wheelspeed because it has rear suspension, larger platform, is quieter, and feels more refined. The only drawback is that it does weigh more and is longer.
Yes, that is the advertised range of how far the scooter can go. Oftentimes the actual range is less depending on rider weight, temperature, road conditions and elevation, and throttle response.
I found this online: The GXL V2 is not 100% waterproof but it does have an IP54 waterproof rating, which means that it can withstand water spray from any direction.
You could be right. I didn't see anything about changing gears in the manual cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0071/0406/9747/files/Manual_GXLV2_20211215.pdf?v=1652451757

Thanks for the comment. I posted the video in 2022, and don't see that I posted any discount codes, but only the price at the time of posting. I usually test promo codes when suppliers provide them, and they're usually valid until a specific date. I have dozens of videos, and cannot keep track if codes expire unfortunately.

You're welcome. I'm glad you found the review helpful, and hope you enjoy the scooter.
Excellent video, very thorough, thank you 🙏

@@princesshart5941 Awesome. How do you like it?
hey, thanks for the review video.. its cool.. just asking if its good for my 12 old son.. he's good on riding bicycle..

Thank you! I figured it out and am happily scooting.@@ColinLeung
a very fun toy to me, but the limited range really limits its use for me.
If you need to go more than 12 miles then you need to buy a car! 😂
Right LOL@@diegovago5710
Nice thanks for the review
You're welcome :)
Great Video!
Thanks Matt!
The manual states 1st gear for hills and 2nd gear for flat ground.
Would you buy a wheelspeed ws1 or a gotrax gxl v2 if they were the same price?
The gotrax and wheelspeed are both currently $300 after coupons on Amazon for Black Friday. Between the two I'd prefer the Wheelspeed because it has rear suspension, larger platform, is quieter, and feels more refined. The only drawback is that it does weigh more and is longer.
Can you adjust it to make it taller ??
Unfortunately, you cannot adjust the stem to make it taller.
Can you explain the 12 miles? Is it mean the distance that this scooter can go?
Yes, that is the advertised range of how far the scooter can go. Oftentimes the actual range is less depending on rider weight, temperature, road conditions and elevation, and throttle response.
Thanks for video...i just bought a used one for 150 and wanted to find out abour it
You're welcome, Carol.
Can you tell me how much air is suppose to be in the tires please
@@carolmiller1108 Typically 40-50psi
Thanks for this 👊🏿
you're welcome
Good review. What's your weight? See you again soon.Thank you.😊
I'm about 150lbs. You're welcome!
My throttle didn't bounce back like yours, it just struck there, do you know how to fix? Thanks
I think there's a spring inside the throttle. You may need to open it up, and see if it's not in place.
How much psi in tires
@@brandonleefreitas The website says 50psi. It will also say the max psi on the tires. gotrax.com/blogs/news/gxl-v2-troubleshooting-guide
Does it have an IPS rating? Can it handle rain?
I found this online: The GXL V2 is not 100% waterproof but it does have an IP54 waterproof rating, which means that it can withstand water spray from any direction.
🚀
Why is it so hard to unhook after unboxing ?
It sounds like the rear latch was set too close. I had to remove it, and readjust it. ua-cam.com/video/EUzCVvwT4yI/v-deo.htmlsi=jCd_Ud7TtClFzUJN&t=205
How many minutes can it run for before it dies
It has a range of up to 12.5miles. The run time depends on how fast you go.
I have the v1 and that gives me about 9 miles 200lbs and max speed the whole time
@@Zavala32191 That's pretty good. Thanks for sharing
U mean hours
@@Helkksno he means minutes
Thanks for this video just buy my scooter today same brand.it’s help to assemble my scooter.
You're welcome. I'm glad you found the video helpful. Enjoy riding the scooter!
Is the height short or perfect for a women 5’5
It'll fit a 5'5" woman
Wait, I thought this had 2 gears, no?
You could be right. I didn't see anything about changing gears in the manual cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0071/0406/9747/files/Manual_GXLV2_20211215.pdf?v=1652451757
After set the brake.i can't attach the hook
I had to adjust the hook position. See ua-cam.com/video/EUzCVvwT4yI/v-deo.html
When I try to put my scooter in km/ph it just keeps on putting the flashlight on please respond or someone help
Hello, did you push the button 3x fast? ua-cam.com/video/EUzCVvwT4yI/v-deo.html
I did and it just keeps on putting the flashlight on
@@aydennunnelly1604 I would try contacting the manufacture then. It may be a defect in the controller, or they can suggest another way of changing it.
Do it have gears?
Unfortunately, it does not. It's just one speed.
7:44 he mentioned that in the video :)
My break cord is too short
Sorry to hear that. Does it cause the brake to rub? You may be able to loosen the nut on the lever or brake caliper to decrease the tension.
