That’s a great little scooter for $600. Very well built! I bought one for my wife and she loves it. It gets up there, but moderately probably for safety reasons and the general crowd they want to appeal to. I bought the Joyor S10-S with a 1000 watt motor at each wheel. It’s super torquey ( If that’s a word). I wouldn’t want her on that.
Top speed and total range will vary considerably based on rider weight, terrain, and even on the temperature. On perfectly flat ground, on a warm day, and with a 100Lb Chinese test rider, I'm sure this scooter hits the advertised specs. But more realistically, I'm about 190Lbs, and it will hit about 24mph on perfectly flat ground (which is as fast as I need... scooters start to get a bit wobbly at those speeds). It slows to the mid teens going up steep hills, and will easily hit the 28mph spec on the downhills. I can get about 20 miles range out of it, depending on temperature and terrain. Hilly terrain, rough ground, or cold temperatures will GREATLY reduce the total mileage. Lots of stopping and starting will also drain a battery much faster. I've seen a 240 Lb guy test one of these and get about 21-22 MPH as a max speed, and a total range of about 15 miles. I even saw a 300 pound guy test one of these and he was only able to hit about 16mph, so that's probably the max weight this scooter will carry without seriously overstraining the motor. He didn't do a range test, but I'm guessing he'd probably drain the battery within 10 miles. So yeah... just bear in mind that ALL advertised scooter specs are based on a lightweight rider, a warm day, and a perfectly smooth, flat surface. Your experience may differ based on your weight and the kind of riding you do.
I just got the H5 and did a test run with so far hitting 27MPH on the gauge with GPS indicating 25MPH. Take some time to get up to speed. However, does your front wheel spin very freely when lifted off the ground and spun by hand? I can get it so rotate about 2-3 times versus it being free spin and think there's a bit of resistance on the bearings..?.. I checked and the disc brake is not touching. Can you please tell me how is your front wheel?
Yeah I do notice that there's a 2 mile difference from the display and the phone mine doesn't spin freely when I lift it off the ground. But it does spin freely when I spin it with my hands. I think that's normal. The brakes not supposed to touch unless you squeeze the handle if that's what you mean? Also I had to adjust my front brakes due to the fact that It was more harder to press than the back brakes
@@capdoxreviews Thanks! I loosened the front wheel axle bolts a bit and now it spins alot more freely when pushing by hand. Mine must have been too tight when assembled.
It's still running i use it almost every time locally in the neighborhood i adjusted the brake so the wheel runs more freely the most i got up the meter is 26 but the gps on my phone shows 24 for some reason it 2 mph slower than what they advertise
@@casejasnoch2533 I returned that due to a bad front wheel and clunky suspension. Glad I did since I now have a sportier 60V dual motor scooter. Ended up with the MotoTec Thor. My latest vid: ua-cam.com/video/x5LCMTAZ-Ts/v-deo.html

ROFL! And with a 100lb Chinese test rider. Haha. It was so easy to picture! Nice slip in with the joke there.
What's the song at 3:30? . Nice review
I don't quite remember the name but if I come across it again I will let you know. Might be sometime though
