Brother... 3 things... 1: You have great pipes and camera presence. We need to talk about production value...I am a producer so take it for what it's worth. I did not make it two minutes and I tried brother. I really want to know about this scooter. It's a lot of money, but not a lot for quality, and a truly great scooter. Also, you look to be exactly my size. That's why I picked your review to watch over all the rest that I saw. And there's quite a few of those in the youtube review game as you know. 2: @01:40 was your first grave error. Instead of "this scooter" you say "Hiboy Max Pro". Always remind the viewer what it is you are selling/reviewing. You are not selling scooters. You are selling your chanel. Your chanel is your product. You should definitely stay "you", but w/a frame around it. Like meeting your girlfriends parents for the first time. That's "you" w/a frame. I know you know this is a basic blunder. Amature mistake. Make sure for every minute you are on camera. Spend literally 2X that amount preparing. You need that time to write copy. Set up the camera and sound just the way you want it/as it should be to make broadcast quality productions. If you do this you will actually save time. The video's should be shorter and more compact. That preparation will pay huge dividends. DO NOT rush from one demo to another w/o proper preparation. Which brings me to #3: Was doing your demo while someone is mowing really necessary? Are you in THAT big of a hurry to pump out demos? Are you using your youtube vocation to get free gear? That's the impression I got in exactly One Minute, fifty eight seconds...Why? Not just because listening to mowers has caused entire communities to go to civil war. It's because you are TRYING really really hard to make a demo vid. And are not smart enough to find somewhere to go on that fancy scooter where there's no noises? Seriously? Could not think of a single alternate location? THAT is why I stopped watching. Will never subscribe and gave you a thumbs down. I think you are just pumping out demos for free stuff. More demos equals more views right? You are literally doing the exact opposite of what you should be doing to be successful. Focus on one thing at a time. Take the time necessary. NEVER hurry. Your complete lack of preparation is extremely disappointing and as a producer it's like nails on a chalkboard and Homer Simpson is the nail dragger. Only Homer has broadcast quality production. Trade hint: Turning the mic up to drown out the mower, only makes the mower louder AND creates a hot potentiometer that completely, 100%, destroys the quality of the video and turns it into an amature and perfect example of what NOT to do. Because it turns people off. Like a really bad song. After about 10 seconds you want to turn it off. About 30 seconds later you do just that...Off...To another chanel. Never to return. Except nobody cares about you enough to take the time I have explaining the right way to do things as a pro in the biz...See what I'm sayin' cuzzin? A great way to learn the trade is QVC or any shopping channel. For example. They say things in "threes". It's a communication trick. Politicians do it as well. I don't make the rules. But it's true repeating something 3 times allows people to memorise w/o being disconnected from the present. Make sense? QVC will help finding your rhythm. Writing copy and production, presentation and so forth. You will find that you'll create better quality demos in shorter time once you find your inner "you". That's "you with a frame" when on camera or audio voice overs etc. Have great projection and pronunciation. Smiling while talking actually improves/enhances that. I got no idea why. It just does. It's also better presentation..Remember you are in a frame like a painting. It's a Picasso. But a Picasso in a frame is much better. It enhances the star...That's you bud. You are the star. Demos are demos. To be the best takes effort. I saw zero effort. You can't even wait and can't or won't go find another place to do your work. A sweet high end scooter and you can't ride it to the park? Or a random sidewalk 2 blocks away? Nope, gonna stay here because that will take tooooo looong to ride for 60 seconds each direction for a better location? You got a pallet load of toasters to review today? Sarcasm aside. There's no excuse for this stuff. You are not a serious player. Good luck and please take my advice. I wish you mass success in your venture.
Really nice scooter! The comfortable ride; the display; the wide platform; and I especially love the bright side-light along the length of the base! Very cool feature! The lush, scenic trail you chose was an added bonus. Great review!💙👍
You did an awesome review as you always do Jay💙💙💙 That looks like a great scooter!!! Keep up the great work on reviewing things!!! May God always bless you keep you healthy and safe ❤️🙏❤️ Much love and hugs from South Carolina ❤️ xx
Looks like a great scooter to use for explorations and has some really neat features! That is so awesome that the seat is optional and available to purchase, I would definitely want that additional feature! The lights on the sides are really cool too! Seems like a nice, smooth, fun, and pleasant ride. Excellent review JP, thank you!
Always love the intro to your Product Review videos .....Riding the the Max Pro looks like so much fun . What a great way to get out and about and enjoy nature ....I really like the light feature along the bottom ...and the flashing brake light..great safety ideas. I was wondering about the seat ..glad to see it can have the seat also ...Great review ...looks like a top notch scooter !👍💙
Hi, What type of range are you getting? I am between this one and the Niu Kqi3 max which gets about 20 miles with a 200 pound person at the fastest speed.
It's funny because when I watch your videos...any of them....I feel like you're that cool teacher that's like let's get outside and just takes the class on last minute trips and we have to figure out what when where and why but you're teaching us stuff as we go 🤣😂👍❤️
Im a bigger guy (6'2" - 260lbs) who doesnt believe that the S2 Pro would be okay for me, since I need a good range electric scooter, I love HiBoys parts replacement system and how reliable they are from reviews. Found this model on their website and this is going to be my first electric scooter ill own!
Nice review, looks like a great scooter! The wide deck was the first thing that caught my eye, and that display is very nice as well. Lots of great features as you mentioned. I love the orange accents, and that's a nice touch to include spare tubes and pressure gages. I think the biggest con for me would be the 51 pounds it weighs, but other than that it would be a solid contender if I decided to upgrade.
A few people mentioned the color scheme and how they like it. Regarding the weight, I can tell you that it helps keep it stable which is good reassurance. Thanks for checking out the review.
On the regen braking, you can usually adjust the sensor on the brake level to allow you to partially pull the lever to engage the regen braking without having the pads contact. Thanks for the great review!
This is my second HiBoy scooter, and I love it so much, but the height, wheels, and weight were some cons. The height is slightly awkward because of how short I am (barely 5 foot), on the first ride, I got a flat tire (rear), it was a pain to fix and took extremely long but has been perfectly fine since. Weight is very heavy for me, but I just found it easiest to store in my garage. I love this scooter!
For someone your size there's 2 different hiboy scooters I would of recommended that have adjustable height handlebars and lighter weight, but glad you're enjoying this one.
I'm surprised nobody thought of a way to regenerate power as you ride by using the non motorized wheel as a mini alternator to recharge the battery or on board spare battery as you ride. Pushing out power and pulling it right back in. You could potentially recycle power for a good while.
Is it easy to take the tires on/off for repairs? Hiboy's idea of easily removing the tire plates seem interesting. I tried swapping them out on another scooter brand and the experience was very horrible.
just bought 2 max pros for my girlfriend and I, one thing i'm concerned with is replacement part for the scooter if its damaged. Looking at the hiboy website and i see replacement parts for everything except the max pro. I live in an area with a lot of goat heads so my concern is where would I get replacement tires if they were damaged? have you had a similar issue ordering spare parts?
Since this is a newer release, parts will become available with some time. You can always contact them directly for a current issue, but unless you abuse it, they shouldn't break.
Hi, great video! Can you tell me if you can remove the battery from the scooter to charge it? I heard it’s possible with the s2pro but not the pro max. Is that true? Thank you!
Thanks for the comparison part of your review. I've been dying to get a scooter and finally purchased the Hiboy S2 Pro. It's my first scooter that I plan to use mostly for runs to get groceries and food no more than 1-2 miles away from my place here in Los Angeles. What I noticed right away is that the S2 Pro feels substantial but you definitely feel every bump in the road. Is the Max worth the upgrade? I'm not sure if I'm being a scooter snob or if what I have is good enough.
The max is a better version of the s2 pro. The only downside is pneumatic tires, but the comfortable ride and power makes it worth it. If you don't ever plan on going for longer leisure rides, than stick with what you have.
Hey JP, Im thinking of getting this. I was wondering are the batteries safe? will they catch fire? Have you had any problems like this? Also I like your helmet. What helmet would you reccomend to be safest?
I and no one can predict a fire. With responsible care and handling, I haven't had any issues. Many fires happen from misuse of product or improper care of battery. As for helmet, that the rider's individual choice.
Ok if your here chechink the comments up I’m just going to tell you it’s a way better idea to get the segway max g2 the shocks are way better on the segway max g2
do not buy this scooter. mine keeeps popping rea tires, 4 so far in 5 rides, sent pics, multiple emails, and they refuse to remedy it although i have the 1 yr warranty which they wont send me. all theyve offered was stickers.... stickers! i spent 150 bucks on new tires whichjust keep popping. thoroughly inspected the tire tube and rim and it keeps popping with nothing in sight. do not buy unless u want a headache. took pics and videosa dn all i get is hung up on or generic messages.
This was recently taken on a nearly 20 mile ride and the tires are still holding air with no issues. If you're having that many problems, I recommend sending it back for placement if it's still under warranty.
You seem to have gotten a “lemon”. It happens from time to time with almost everything that’s manufactured. While your having a bad experience, and are telling people not to buy it, you are basically 1 person standing in the center of a stadium full of happy owners that drown out your one bad experience.
@@k29king1So a stadium of happy customers for Hiboy should have no problems fixing, replacing or refunding the ONE dissatisfied customer in a arena of Hibooy customers. Receiving stickers from Hiboy is a slap in this customers face when paying for a 500$ item that can't be used. Hiboy can do better.
Dude you've got to start wearing an orange hunters vest. In some states it's law. Where I live many people have been accidently shot and some killed for not having on the orange vest. Orange vest or hat is a must while in the woods.

Really nice scooter! The comfortable ride; the display; the wide platform; and I especially love the bright side-light along the length of the base! Very cool feature! The lush, scenic trail you chose was an added bonus. Great review!💙👍
It was the perfect location for a test ride.
You did an awesome review as you always do Jay💙💙💙
That looks like a great scooter!!!
Keep up the great work on reviewing things!!!
May God always bless you keep you healthy and safe ❤️🙏❤️

The lights will make it pop and it's a nice enjoyable ride and is certainly fun.
I really liked love how you give your Reviews on things that you have used ....and like ....
I hope it helps with those who are in the market.
Also make sure you check homeowners insurance to make sure it covers EV scooter malfunctions ! Fires well in that matter any EV products
Thank you for the review 👍
Hi, What type of range are you getting? I am between this one and the Niu Kqi3 max which gets about 20 miles with a 200 pound person at the fastest speed.
It looks like the best of the bunch great review thanks Jay
It's such a pleasure to ride

Awsome scooter. Lots of featurs mine doesnt have. That wide deck was a seller for me.

Found this model on their website and this is going to be my first electric scooter ill own!
My friend who is around the same size as you now owns this scooter and loves it.
How does it do on hills with someone 250lbs?@@JPVideos81
Cool video jp. I have been thinking, and I have a few questions regarding these things you have been reviewing .
oh nice! youre in NEPA as well. noticed when i immediately recognized the park at 8:10
Nice review, looks like a great scooter! The wide deck was the first thing that caught my eye, and that display is very nice as well. Lots of great features as you mentioned. I love the orange accents, and that's a nice touch to include spare tubes and pressure gages.

How long do the drum brakes last compared to disc brakes?
I have the S2 Pro and after just 3 days I like it! The negative is a bumpy ride but it is fun and perky! Nice red underglo at night!
On the regen braking, you can usually adjust the sensor on the brake level to allow you to partially pull the lever to engage the regen braking without having the pads contact.
Thanks for the great review!
I didnt see an adjustment, but I haven't looked for one either.
Just got one! Do you know how to mod the LEDs on the side so they glow firey orange instead of red to match the rest of the scooter?
This is my second HiBoy scooter, and I love it so much, but the height, wheels, and weight were some cons. The height is slightly awkward because of how short I am (barely 5 foot), on the first ride, I got a flat tire (rear), it was a pain to fix and took extremely long but has been perfectly fine since.

I'm surprised nobody thought of a way to regenerate power as you ride by using the non motorized wheel as a mini alternator to recharge the battery or on board spare battery as you ride. Pushing out power and pulling it right back in. You could potentially recycle power for a good while.
Regen uses resistance so you'll eat up battery life unless you only Regen downhill.
Conservation of energy.
Is it easy to take the tires on/off for repairs? Hiboy's idea of easily removing the tire plates seem interesting. I tried swapping them out on another scooter brand and the experience was very horrible.
Is Hiboy Max Pro better than Engwe s6 and why? Thanks.
Do you like having a seat on the scooter? The universal option is sweet but I always feel odd strong while scooting. Great review!😊
I honestly do, especially for longer rides. Takes some getting used to, but I like that option.
The seat is a game changer. Worth every penny.
Do you need to activate the scooter with the hiboy app or it just works right out of the box?
Works out of the box, but you can adjust settings like max speed and cruise control through the app.
What kind of shoes are those you’re wearing in the vid ?
just bought 2 max pros for my girlfriend and I, one thing i'm concerned with is replacement part for the scooter if its damaged. Looking at the hiboy website and i see replacement parts for everything except the max pro. I live in an area with a lot of goat heads so my concern is where would I get replacement tires if they were damaged? have you had a similar issue ordering spare parts?
Since this is a newer release, parts will become available with some time. You can always contact them directly for a current issue, but unless you abuse it, they shouldn't break.
I just got mine tuesday, do u know if theres a way to install a cargo rack on the rear?
I dont believe so
Looks nice, my question would be concern about the rear tire holding up.
Front & rear tires are the same. As long as you keep proper air pressure and watch where you ride, they should hold up like any other tire.
Awesome review 5 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
which one would be best for a 14 mile commute?
Hi, great video! Can you tell me if you can remove the battery from the scooter to charge it? I heard it’s possible with the s2pro but not the pro max. Is that true? Thank you!
Neither the max pro or s2 pro have Removable batteries for charging. The s2r plus has a Removable Battery and I also reviewed that scooter.
The handle bar seems to be rather high. what is your height and do you think it would work for me at 5'7"
I'm 5'11 and I love the height. I feel the height is good for "most" people.
I'm 5'10 and this scooter is great, I love it !

Question is it lightweight or heavy
Thanks for posting this review. How does it do on inclines? I'm about 230 lbs.
It's does decent if you get a good start, but it can't climb steep hills.
Central California watching
Just orderd one. 4th of july sale!
In terms of bumpiness (city streets but lots of potholes, cobblestones, etc.) would you say the maxpro or the ve1 is the smoother ride?
Max pro
Is it still working?
Yes
Hi does universal seat (none hiboy) fits in these scooter? Thanks
Not that I'm aware. Only the seat available through hiboy.
I've struggled that which scooter i should buy, but after watching your video, i decide to buy Hiboy Max pro.
Hey JP, Im thinking of getting this. I was wondering are the batteries safe? will they catch fire? Have you had any problems like this? Also I like your helmet. What helmet would you reccomend to be safest?
I and no one can predict a fire. With responsible care and handling, I haven't had any issues. Many fires happen from misuse of product or improper care of battery. As for helmet, that the rider's individual choice.
I was wondering if maybe in future if you could do a review of helmets?@@JPVideos81
Just do a search of bicycle helmet reviews.
Okay dokey! 😀@@JPVideos81
Thanks for the review. I have the S2 but I've been eyeballing the Max Pro.
It's a nice upgrade from the s2
can you do a review on the new hiboy x300
How’s the scooter on incline?
Depends on your weight and steepness of hill, but with momentum (speed) it will climb average hills/inclines.
Do you recommend the hobby s2max or the pro max?
Max pro
Ok if your here chechink the comments up I’m just going to tell you it’s a way better idea to get the segway max g2 the shocks are way better on the segway max g2
Can we freely ride e-scooters in Victoria British Columbia?
What does split wheel mean?
The wheel splits in two halves when having to change the tube.
😲😎👍 nice
Hills?
Why does nobody test hill grade?
I'm surprised at the weight. It weighs as much as my ebike!
The larger deck & battery make up for much of that weight. I feel it's not too heavy or light and feels stable.
I need a scooter than can reach 30km. Can this one exceed that?
22mph is about 35kmh
yea for e-brake thumblevers
Not enough watts
8mph? May as well walk it's free and just as fast
🤨 which scooter goes 8 mph? No scooter on this video. I think you're lost
9.30.24😮

Agreed!! I'm now on my 3rd. They have fully refunded me after months of headaches.
