    1:38 Brother that is why you need at least a helmet. You never know what other riders or pedestrians will do. I ride with a full face helmet, knee/elbow pads, gloves and a "visibility" vest as my bare minimum. The bell is ok for bike riders and pedestrians but in NYC like you and I you need a horn too, for motorized vehicles. Keep up the great videos and ride safe.

      That's a bit overkill especially when you're late to work to dismount quickly. I at the very least wear a helmet with head and tail lights and knee pads for quick changing and ease of carrying the gear.
      I would recommend wearing wrist guards and elbow guards in addition if one's day is well-planned, though.

    Got a G Max Ultra a few days ago, fun little scooter. Actual speed is 18 and the actual range is more like 20 miles. Back tire went flat on mine, leaking around the valve stem. It's a tubeless tire so I tried to seal it but no luck. Just happened, not resolved yet. I love your vids, have been watching for a long time, you are the man!

    First thing I noticed about this scooter over your other one is a much smoother ride and the camera isn't being jostled around when you hit bumps.

      I preferred his older Segway Ninebot Max G30 for reliability. I now have the Ninebot F2 Pro which has shock absorbers and much quicker speed than both his scooters.

    You upgraded! That's awesome! I thought you only tested the scooter, but you own it.
    May it give you only what you want in your rides and in longer livestreams to take you straight to destination without dying battery.
    I was thinking how cool of you to be so confident on this machine. Not anyone can do this in between traffic when any person, building, vehicle can steal your focus. I was also thinking you have nice hands :)) I can't ignore it. It's right there in front of my eyes. Bless you!

    Here is a Throttle tip for u guys that For some reason Gotrax never ever mentions 🤷🏻‍♂️ . The throttle only becomes active when the display changes from odometer to speedometer. So you don’t have to push the scooter faster or double pump the throttle, you only have to Waite two seconds after you push off, then the display will change from odometer to speedometer then hit the throttle and you are good to go. ………. You’re welcome : )
