I love your videos and their great production value but I've noticed that on multiple scooter reviews recently some basic info was missing, that I wish was in. This review mentions that it's lighter than others but doesn't say how much it weighs, which is pretty important. I can understand not wanting to quote a price and put sellers that are more expensive in a weird position, but at least a range of prices would be good to add, too (e.g. "we've seen it sold online for $1,400 to $1,800" would make a huge difference). The weight shouldn't be controversial either, or up for debate. Just my 2 cents.
@@NatesEscape Good job entirely missing the point. This is not about this specific scooter, but about multiple videos all having this problem. I could see how you wouldn't recognize constructive feedback that was well-received by the author of this video when all you could manage was a sarcastic comment. Best of luck with life, it'll be a challenge with such poor reading comprehension skills.
@@AlienRides hey I've been watching your videos a lotttt I need a recommendation for a decent prices scooter that can do the job I was thinking of the ninebot, can't like I've tried my friends ninebot and it feels great I weigh around 100 ILBs and I'm pretty light so looking for a great all around scooter and I live in NY pretty flat streets
this video is the reason im buying my Vsett 9+R from you Tuesday. awesome customer service too. I couldnt be more stoked to take it 5 miles up valley to Vail, Colorado to show it off to all my pro kayaking buddies.. its the perfect travel vehicle as well as a shuttle vehicle for retrieving vehicles on kayak runs.. when only having 1 vehicle with a few friends.. its now possible.. Ill make a sweet promo video pushing this scooter.. love Alien Rides Hans Lambert
Really great review, as usual. Thanks. 0:26 haha, I adjusted my brakes so that the pads and rotors were fully aligned ( front one was mis-aligned out of the factory with only the back edge of the pad making contact with the rotor.) Tested it going down my driveway and went straight over the bars fist time I applied front brake! They are surprisingly grunty little buggers for mechanical brakes. BUT! I really wish that Vsett had integrated the front indicators into the brake lever brackets and the rear ones into the back of the foot rest. Would be way more visible to other traffic in those positions.
Love your videos! I just came back from a trip to Portland, Oregon. I live in Northern NJ and we drive or use public Trans. I have never been on an electric scooter until my trip. I rented the Lime scooter everyday to make it up and down those Portland hills because I didn't rent a car. I had fun but I wobbled alot. I had the experience of getting on the scooter at 6:30am one morning going downhill towards downtime and almost ending my life after hitting a couple of rough dips in the road. I wear glasses plus I am 45 so hitting the concrete isn't ideal. I jumped off the scooter in a panic and bruised myself up a bit. I had a major fun on the scooter but I definitely would need more practice at a much lower speed to get the hang of things, and a helmet! This Vsett 9+ looks awesome but 32 mph would have my soul leave my body. And I'm sure we all know speed is exhilarating yet isn't always practical for folks like myself. Overall, I am still interested in getting a scooter.. Next I'll try to Veo scooters we have in NJ now to see how I like the commute in my area. Fingers crossed 🤞
Ah yeah, also to be fair the line scooters are not the safest, usually in poor maintenance with small tires. Practicing some on flat ground is also a good idea, but I’m sure you would be great at it in no time.
I just pulled the trigger on a Vsett 9+ due in no small part to your excellent reviews of the Vsett line. One controversy I came across whilst researching this and other dual-drive scooters was, is there a significant increase in range using rear-wheel-drive only? I know the answer seems obvious on one level but I would really like to see the question answered formally by an expert. The argument against increased range is that the unpowered motor offers significant resistance to motion, presumably due to cogging.
Also things are more efficient when they are running at lower amps generally. I don't have hard data, but honestly it doesn't really matter. We just recommend dual motor to keep the motor wear and controller draw the same. 👽🖖
Buying this instead of the Emove Cruiser is one of the best purchasing decisions I've ever made - probably. It has some flaws but I guess all scooters do and I love it very much. 600 miles in 2 months. It's a blast.
Great review my man, keep that content flowing. Will be rocking a new deck decided to plump for the Dualtron mini fast and light, i don't have need for mega mileage being here in the U.K , still love the content looking forward to just another one of your crazy ride along videos.
I’ve had one for around a month, I get around 15 miles from mine after a full charge, no matrrr how much I use the dual motor, the single motor mode is kinda pointless tho if you ask me, its only useful on flat ground in good weather it’s not powerful enough once you’ve took it down to less than 50v for it to be any good in single motor mode it’s on par with an AovoPro, it has been very windy and wet tho so no doubt that’s affecting the range and performance.. the top speed on single motor is around 22mph unless you use dual to get up to speed, then the slightest bit of wind or rough terrain and your speed is gone, from my experience the range doesn’t change much with dual and single motor use, I’ve tried to be economical with it and I’ve just give it full beans, doesn’t change much, so you are probably better off using dual most of the time unless your in a busy area then the single motor mode is useful as you don’t really need all that power to cruise at 15/20mph on the canal or whatever, my aovo cost me £240, this I paid £1000 for it, i live in a hilly area so the dual motor is a godsend, but as said once you’ve dropped below 48/50v the performance greatly depreciates.. I did 24 miles on the first charge and that took it right down to 41v which you don’t really want to do all that often.. so you may get 20 miles if your not too bothered about the decrease in power but for me I need all the power I can get, The suspension works, much more comfortable for the roads, the lights are crap so I’ve added a load of bike lights myself to the front and wear them on my bag too to be more visible, overall it’s decent but a month in and it could be better, I expected more for my 1k but I’m still quite pleased with it, deffo be worth grabbing an extra charger as the 10hour charge time is very long…
I managed 21 miles in 1st gear the whole time the other day and it would have gone further but I got a flat, it was low tho so maybe 25 miles if I was lucky, in 2nd your talking 15 miles and 3rd your getting like 10 miles in my experience after 2 month over winter in cold wet and windy weather, so real world uk use 🤣 but you probably would get a good 30 miles just cruising in 1st with no hills and no wind on good road surface, it would take you like 3 hours but i think it would be doable.. just where I live there’s lots of hills
Best scooter for those who like to change flat tires every 100km. One local youtuber had 4 flats in week on Vsett 9+. My local distributor of Vsetts aknowleged , that people are returning Vsett 9+ very often, because of flat tires on such small wheels accure every second ride. 8.5 Inch is tire for Xiaomi 365 with max speed od 25km/h. Not for a scooter with top speed 53km/h. As distibutor, by selling those you will have a lot of headache in the future.
The problem is the hota tires; the nylon threads on mine were actually breaking through the rubber in multiple locations. Those threads cut into the inner tube. I replaced the hota tires with tuovt tires.
Very good point about the flat tire issue, this will actually be fixed in the new batch, as a new much thicker tire is being used. We will be providing this tire to all recent customers for free.
Ich mag das Video weil man mit drei Geschwindigkeiten Fahren kann. Und mit Zwei Motoren noch Stärker Fahren kann. Ich werde es mir Bald Kaufen falls noch vorhanden ist. Weil es noch besser wird😀. Das Video gefällt mir sehr ! Jedoch warte ich noch auf einen besseren Video !
I got the 8R - the 8's best aspect is it's the right weight for getting up stairs without too much stress (it is heavy but it's doable )(AND IT's the best looking one in my humble opinion :) BUUUT i wish i had got the 9 BECAUSE hills AND WIND RESISTANCE def cut into your velocity without more power and a dial motor . Even if you did get an 8 def get the (+)!!
I would love to make that video. Real quick though, the Vsett with it's dual motors would blow the mini out of the water performance wise, but be a bit heavier. Depends on what your needs are. 👽🖖
I would love to commute on an electric scooter and I have the money to buy a nice one. But I live in the Southwest and the city I live in literally does not even have bike lanes or side walks lol. Nothing. Literally not 1 main road in the entire city has bike lanes OR connecting sidewalks. Just roads, and roads with 40-60 MPH speed limits. All of them, a LOT of people complain about it. The only place you can find sidewalks are in residential neighborhoods.
I was going to get one of these as a spare scooter but ended up choosing the Hero X8 (soild tyres yep) - was a toss up between the two, the Hero has slightly more power but he Vsett more comfortable ride I'm sure. Cool review as always man
@@AlienRides it's a spare to my Weped FS.....when this Rion Apex 2 comes out, I'd love to get one also - I'm in Australia, so I really hope you guys plan to ship Internationally
Unless you are strapped for cash, definitely get the 10+R. The concept of an entry level scooter is an unnecessary and costly one. It is more of a marketing ploy for product diversification than anything else. The basic skill required to ride a scooter is required by all scooters. Buy the top end model, knock everything down to their lowest settings and just take it very easy at first. The learning curve is very steep and you will soon crave the 10+R if not on your very first steep hill. The only real skill requirement for the more powerful scooters is your ability to control the throttle and more so when letting off the throttle or , feathering. Also, if you want the option to learn riding on singletrack, you’ll need a minimum of dual 1000W motors with dual swing arm suspension. However, singletrack is where you will also need to learn a lot more riding skills than is required for commuting.
You get a brand new one, without speed limiter, basically ready to ride. Some small tightening on the throttle as it ships loose to prevent damage in shipping. 👽🖖
Do you guys price match? Another website offering the 21 amp version for 1625 but you guys ask for $124 more is the warranty Included when purchased? Meaning if anything happens to my vsett then you guys will replace it? And what's the difference between the 15.6, 19.2, and 21 amp hour version of the vsett listed on your website? Genuinely interested on purchasing one
Mercane widewheel pro is better at climbing and no flats. Just needs a big battery for range. U think u can give me some direction on if and how i can find a bigger battery for widewheel?
Both are really nice, the Blade X is quite a bit heavier, and also faster. If you don't mind the weight and size, the blade X or Vsett 10+ would be a great choice.
I've got a serious hill run between my home and work, that the VSETT 9 (not plus) barely handles, as in I can walk faster than it rides uphill...It SOUNDS like the extra motor in the 9+ still isn't quite enough, as the last segment of that hill in the vid is the entirety of my 3 mile commute, obviously with some downhill runs in between...I'm guessing the uphill gradients are around 40-45%...Do you have a recommendation for something around the $1700-$2500 mark for a heavier rider just shy of 250 lb?
Hi alien first loving the vids?though seeing the zero scoota now can use a seat would it fit on the vest as there practally the same, or could you recommend a seat I could fit thanks
i have a g2 pro 1000 watt rear motor and i could get up that hill i live in west lancishire and i live on the side of a 1163ft hill called ash hurst beacon because of an antenna and its prety steep going up to my house and i get up that on mine every day mate but im only about 50 kg lol 10 stone
You will get plenty of flats if you buy this scooter . 6 flats in less than 3 weeks. RevRides says nothing about this except tires are not covered under warranty
We have the VSETT9+ at home and it has been a major disappointment. The amount of times we have gotten flats can be counted on one hand… EVERY MONTH! Tried every kind of tire option. Even changing out the wheels is a horrendous process that was clearly not tested properly. Unless you are skilled with repairs of this type you are out of luck because you will not be able to change it. I wish there was a way to return this thing or swap it out. At this point it is nearly unusable because you can pretty much guarantee you will get stranded somewhere. Or maybe we just got a bad one out of the batch…
If you can’t climb steep hills then it’s not suitable for many places. And it couldn’t. So it’s not the best scooter for my city. Maybe vsett10+ , but it’s expensive.
I own the Vsett 9+ and I have to disagree that it is the best commuter. This video should be titled, "Is the Vsett 9+ The BEST Commuter Electric Scooter?" because that would make you more trustworthy. Try using it daily in variable weather conditions and get back to me.
That is true indeed, always good to test scooters in varying conditions. Unfortunately I'm blessed with near perfect weather year round in the bay area. 👽🖖
I was amazing until i got my first flat at 200 miles and every 50 miles (or less) since then. The the replacement inner tubes are horrible and impossible to put on properly. Don't buy unless you are a handy man and can fix your own flats. Total disappointment and a waste of money.

Should be able to get 30-40 miles of range on the biggest battery version. I would only ride in a light drizzle. It makes for a great commuter. 👽🖖
This or the Apollo Explore need help?
I like this one personally since it's a more modern scooter, but each has their pros and cons. 👽🖖
I also considered this model, but took a BLADE X for myself. Tell me, how do you like this scooter in comparison with the BLADE X?
Both are really nice, the Blade X is quite a bit heavier, and also faster. If you don't mind the weight and size, the blade X or Vsett 10+ would be a great choice.
Can extended/external battery be purchased 😃
Yes, we actually offer them on alienrides.com 👽🖖
how much degrees was the very steep slope?
Did you do the hill climb test with both motors activated?
Can you do a range test please?
That's a video we really want to do! 👽🖖
lol i would like to ride e scooters as a full time job it must be really fun
It's surprisingly more work than I thought it would be, but I love it! 👽🖖
Love how the 9+ gets stuck going up the last hill while you can see the cameraguy casually rolling up on his EUC, staring at the camera
Lol, yeah, to be fair that Euc costs a lot more than this scooter!
What’s your weight? And weight with the gear on?
I'm about 175, 190 with gear or so. 👽🖖
Do u know how long it can last in like hours, like can it last 10 hours??
Depends on how fast you're going, it won't last 10 hours, unless you go 1mph. 👽🖖
Is this better than Apollo Ghost?
It's on par, maybe we need to compare them. 👽🖖
How much does it weigh?
Hi there, great video! So that I can get an idea of the climbing performance of the 9+, could I ask the weight of the rider...? I am 96KGs
Thank you, we should mention weight in the video. I'm slightly lighter than you at 81kg.
How many cycles is the battery lifetime of this scooter?
This one or the apollo explore?
I like this one more because it's more modern. 👽🖖
@@AlienRides thanks but I already ordered the explore 😁👍
What is the camera guy riding?:-)
We ride electric unicycles and film!
Is there a noticeable speed difference between the 19 amp battery and the 22 amp battery?
Only differences should be you can hold top speed longer with better range
Can the widewheel pro clime that last hill?
yes
I've got a serious hill run between my home and work, that the VSETT 9 (not plus) barely handles, as in I can walk faster than it rides uphill...It SOUNDS like the extra motor in the 9+ still isn't quite enough, as the last segment of that hill in the vid is the entirety of my 3 mile commute, obviously with some downhill runs in between...I'm guessing the uphill gradients are around 40-45%...Do you have a recommendation for something around the $1700-$2500 mark for a heavier rider just shy of 250 lb?
Get the blade x or the blade gt!
Excellent
👽🖖
How does the range compare to the eMove Cruiser? I haven't found anything that comes close to it.
On dual motor, the emove cruiser will likely win. But I think this might win if you stick to single motor, let's find out.
Hi alien first loving the vids?though seeing the zero scoota now can use a seat would it fit on the vest as there practally the same, or could you recommend a seat I could fit thanks
Thanks! I'm actually not sure what seats fit on the vsett scooter line yet, but I would love to offer some, so am also curious if anyone knows.
Top speed?
What's the cheapest I can get one of these new and fast enough
These faster scooters aren't cheap yet, but we do have some options at alienrides.com and will have some cheaper offerings in the near future. 👽🖖
You “Bad rider”
Person going opposite direction in bike lane “this guy going 33 mph in bike lane”
I generally try to avoid the bike lanes and stick to the streets, cars don't expect you to be going so fast in a bike lane 👽🖖
i have a g2 pro 1000 watt rear motor and i could get up that hill i live in west lancishire and i live on the side of a 1163ft hill called ash hurst beacon because of an antenna and its prety steep going up to my house and i get up that on mine every day mate but im only about 50 kg lol 10 stone
You will get plenty of flats if you buy this scooter . 6 flats in less than 3 weeks. RevRides says nothing about this except tires are not covered under warranty
We have the VSETT9+ at home and it has been a major disappointment. The amount of times we have gotten flats can be counted on one hand… EVERY MONTH! Tried every kind of tire option. Even changing out the wheels is a horrendous process that was clearly not tested properly. Unless you are skilled with repairs of this type you are out of luck because you will not be able to change it. I wish there was a way to return this thing or swap it out. At this point it is nearly unusable because you can pretty much guarantee you will get stranded somewhere. Or maybe we just got a bad one out of the batch…
It's a common problem and there’s a fix for it.
@@Visionist whats that fix?
Bad bad rider lol nice rewiew
Thanks I suppose! 👽🖖
Was awesome scooter until i got the first flat at 150 miles on the rear tire and 3 on the front tire.
Sounds like you sped up the audio, hard to understand you
Thanks for the feedback 👽🖖
If you can’t climb steep hills then it’s not suitable for many places. And it couldn’t. So it’s not the best scooter for my city. Maybe vsett10+ , but it’s expensive.
wish i had one of any electric scooters.. its my birthday.
They are tons of fun, hope you get one. And happy belated bday! 👽🖖
Way too much time compression man, lol. Otherwise good video 👍
There are 4 vsetts
Yup, there's also the 8 which we hope to check out some day. 👽🖖
The motors look the same as the one Inokim uses. Probably from the same factory 🏭. 🏭
Good eyes, many scooter manufacturers are using the same motor suppliers these days.
I own the Vsett 9+ and I have to disagree that it is the best commuter. This video should be titled, "Is the Vsett 9+ The BEST Commuter Electric Scooter?" because that would make you more trustworthy. Try using it daily in variable weather conditions and get back to me.
That is true indeed, always good to test scooters in varying conditions. Unfortunately I'm blessed with near perfect weather year round in the bay area. 👽🖖
May I Please ask What are the Main Detriments?
mm.. you should stop at STOP sign, for scooter road rules matter too
Depends on wheee you live, in a few cities stop signs as yield is legal. It’s safer as you’re not in the intersection for as long. 👽🖖
Does every one of these review channels have to have a music video for 5 minutes before they start talking?
Yeah they’re the worst
POOR GOING UP HILLS
I think it does a great job with its dual motors 👽🖖
I was amazing until i got my first flat at 200 miles and every 50 miles (or less) since then. The the replacement inner tubes are horrible and impossible to put on properly. Don't buy unless you are a handy man and can fix your own flats. Total disappointment and a waste of money.
First
👽🖖
🎉
Beg to differ with this review, but my 9+ has been a major disappointment since purchase. Nothing but problems with this POS!
😂😂
👽🖖
echanical disc brake is utter garbage and completely underpowered for anything electric
Hydraulics are better for sure, but these aren't too bad when paired with electronic braking. 👽🖖
Ghost is better.
I don't think so but to each their own 👽🖖
Top speed ?
