The top speed and acceleration started dropping at around 50% charge. This means the top speed decreased slightly, and the zippy acceleration wound off. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Performance cutoff isn't all bad - in fact, it's an active choice by Segway in their firmware to ensure battery longevity and health. However, I think the performance drop-off is initiated way too soon in the battery cycle. It occurs much sooner than on any of the NIU scooters and even the G30P.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 36V system's voltage drops quicker than 48V alternatives, noticeably affecting the 450W motor's output when the battery dips below half.

But Segway advertises <strong>a 6.5% higher max range<\/strong>. How is that possible with a heavier scooter?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This circles back to the RideyLong\u2122 technology. Segway promises more range with a better-tuned motor, performance-geared tires, and a more efficient controller. It all sounds exciting, but I put it to the test to see if it holds up - I'll get back to that shortly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The entire G lineup from Segway Ninebot takes an interesting approach to charging. Rather than having an external charging block, they have an internal power adapter. All you need is the included IEC 60320 C5 plug, and you won't have to worry about carrying a bulky adapter with you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This electric scooter <strong>charges at 121W<\/strong> (2.9A * 42V).

It can be adjusted in strength via the app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"acfvideo\" data-src=\"https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Brake-test-on-the-Segway-Max-G2-electric-scooter.mp4\">\n\t<video muted loop playsinline style=\"pointer-events: none;\" preload=\"none\"><\/video>\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Brake-test-on-the-Segway-Max-G2-electric-scooter-1024x576.jpg\" class=\"acfvidimg\" alt=\"Brake test on the Segway Max G2 electric scooter\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Brake-test-on-the-Segway-Max-G2-electric-scooter-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Brake-test-on-the-Segway-Max-G2-electric-scooter-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Brake-test-on-the-Segway-Max-G2-electric-scooter-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Brake-test-on-the-Segway-Max-G2-electric-scooter-500x281.jpg 500w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Brake-test-on-the-Segway-Max-G2-electric-scooter-400x225.jpg 400w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Brake-test-on-the-Segway-Max-G2-electric-scooter-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Brake-test-on-the-Segway-Max-G2-electric-scooter-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Brake-test-on-the-Segway-Max-G2-electric-scooter-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Brake-test-on-the-Segway-Max-G2-electric-scooter.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" title=\"\">\t<div class=\"video-controls\">\n\t\t<svg class=\"vid_play\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n\t\t\t<title>play<\/title>\n\t\t\t<path d=\"M5.541 2.159c-0.153-0.1-0.34-0.159-0.541-0.159-0.552 0-1 0.448-1 1v18c-0.001 0.182 0.050 0.372 0.159 0.541 0.299 0.465 0.917 0.599 1.382 0.3l14-9c0.114-0.072 0.219-0.174 0.3-0.3 0.299-0.465 0.164-1.083-0.3-1.382zM6 4.832l11.151 7.168-11.151 7.168z\"><\/path>\n\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<svg class=\"vid_loading\" style=\"display:none\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n\t\t<title>loader<\/title>\n\t\t<path d=\"M11 2v4c0 0.552 0.448 1 1 1s1-0.448 1-1v-4c0-0.552-0.448-1-1-1s-1 0.448-1 1zM11 18v4c0 0.552 0.448 1 1 1s1-0.448 1-1v-4c0-0.552-0.448-1-1-1s-1 0.448-1 1zM4.223 5.637l2.83 2.83c0.391 0.391 1.024 0.391 1.414 0s0.391-1.024 0-1.414l-2.83-2.83c-0.391-0.391-1.024-0.391-1.414 0s-0.391 1.024 0 1.414zM15.533 16.947l2.83 2.83c0.391 0.391 1.024 0.391 1.414 0s0.391-1.024 0-1.414l-2.83-2.83c-0.391-0.391-1.024-0.391-1.414 0s-0.391 1.024 0 1.414zM2 13h4c0.552 0 1-0.448 1-1s-0.448-1-1-1h-4c-0.552 0-1 0.448-1 1s0.448 1 1 1zM18 13h4c0.552 0 1-0.448 1-1s-0.448-1-1-1h-4c-0.552 0-1 0.448-1 1s0.448 1 1 1zM5.637 19.777l2.83-2.83c0.391-0.391 0.391-1.024 0-1.414s-1.024-0.391-1.414 0l-2.83 2.83c-0.391 0.391-0.391 1.024 0 1.414s1.024 0.391 1.414 0zM16.947 8.467l2.83-2.83c0.391-0.391 0.391-1.024 0-1.414s-1.024-0.391-1.414 0l-2.83 2.83c-0.391 0.391-0.391 1.024 0 1.414s1.024 0.391 1.414 0z\"><\/path>\n\t\t<\/svg>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Across ten runs, <strong>I averaged a stopping distance of 11.7 feet (3.6 m) from 15 MPH<\/strong>.

Based on community feedback, there are mixed opinions on whether the horn is audible enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I personally find it sufficient, and from my sound level meter tests, it is louder than the bell on the G30P, so you can hardly call it a downgrade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whereas scooters like the <a href=\"http:\/\/eridehero.com\/apollo-city-pro-electric-scooter-review\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"8598\">Apollo City Pro<\/a> split the turn signal buttons to each side of the handlebar, Segway has combined it into a single button that is accessible with your left thumb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I prefer this setup as you don't have to release the throttle to operate it. You concentrate your right hand on the throttle and your left on signals and braking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You'll also find a brake lever on the left handlebar to control the front drum brake and the energy recovery brake. They integrate seamlessly with one another, and the brakes were nicely tuned out of the box.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"acfvideo\" data-src=\"https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Closeup-of-handlebar-turn-signal-on-the-Ninebot-MAX-G2.mp4\">\n\t<video muted loop playsinline style=\"pointer-events: none;\" preload=\"none\"><\/video>\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Closeup-of-handlebar-turn-signal-on-the-Ninebot-MAX-G2-1024x576.jpg\" class=\"acfvidimg\" alt=\"Closeup of handlebar turn signal on the Ninebot MAX G2\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Closeup-of-handlebar-turn-signal-on-the-Ninebot-MAX-G2-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Closeup-of-handlebar-turn-signal-on-the-Ninebot-MAX-G2-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Closeup-of-handlebar-turn-signal-on-the-Ninebot-MAX-G2-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Closeup-of-handlebar-turn-signal-on-the-Ninebot-MAX-G2-500x281.jpg 500w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Closeup-of-handlebar-turn-signal-on-the-Ninebot-MAX-G2-400x225.jpg 400w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Closeup-of-handlebar-turn-signal-on-the-Ninebot-MAX-G2-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Closeup-of-handlebar-turn-signal-on-the-Ninebot-MAX-G2-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Closeup-of-handlebar-turn-signal-on-the-Ninebot-MAX-G2-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Closeup-of-handlebar-turn-signal-on-the-Ninebot-MAX-G2.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" title=\"\">\t<div class=\"video-controls\">\n\t\t<svg class=\"vid_play\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n\t\t\t<title>play<\/title>\n\t\t\t<path d=\"M5.541 2.159c-0.153-0.1-0.34-0.159-0.541-0.159-0.552 0-1 0.448-1 1v18c-0.001 0.182 0.050 0.372 0.159 0.541 0.299 0.465 0.917 0.599 1.382 0.3l14-9c0.114-0.072 0.219-0.174 0.3-0.3 0.299-0.465 0.164-1.083-0.3-1.382zM6 4.832l11.151 7.168-11.151 7.168z\"><\/path>\n\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<svg class=\"vid_loading\" style=\"display:none\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n\t\t<title>loader<\/title>\n\t\t<path d=\"M11 2v4c0 0.552 0.448 1 1 1s1-0.448 1-1v-4c0-0.552-0.448-1-1-1s-1 0.448-1 1zM11 18v4c0 0.552 0.448 1 1 1s1-0.448 1-1v-4c0-0.552-0.448-1-1-1s-1 0.448-1 1zM4.223 5.637l2.83 2.83c0.391 0.391 1.024 0.391 1.414 0s0.391-1.024 0-1.414l-2.83-2.83c-0.391-0.391-1.024-0.391-1.414 0s-0.391 1.024 0 1.414zM15.533 16.947l2.83 2.83c0.391 0.391 1.024 0.391 1.414 0s0.391-1.024 0-1.414l-2.83-2.83c-0.391-0.391-1.024-0.391-1.414 0s-0.391 1.024 0 1.414zM2 13h4c0.552 0 1-0.448 1-1s-0.448-1-1-1h-4c-0.552 0-1 0.448-1 1s0.448 1 1 1zM18 13h4c0.552 0 1-0.448 1-1s-0.448-1-1-1h-4c-0.552 0-1 0.448-1 1s0.448 1 1 1zM5.637 19.777l2.83-2.83c0.391-0.391 0.391-1.024 0-1.414s-1.024-0.391-1.414 0l-2.83 2.83c-0.391 0.391-0.391 1.024 0 1.414s1.024 0.391 1.414 0zM16.947 8.467l2.83-2.83c0.391-0.391 0.391-1.024 0-1.414s-1.024-0.391-1.414 0l-2.83 2.83c-0.391 0.391-0.391 1.024 0 1.414s1.024 0.391 1.414 0z\"><\/path>\n\t\t<\/svg>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>You'll find the two-sided turn signal lights at each end of the handlebar.

It is identical to the display from the G30P and, conversely, carries its shortcomings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First off, it cannot be angled to accompany varying rider heights. It is not a deal-breaker, but when combined with a lack of brightness in direct sunlight, it quickly becomes hard to read the display in the summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The displays on the F, GT, and P series are all brighter and superior in their visuals. With the innovations Segway has already made, it feels lazy to leave the G2 with an old design that lacked finesse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"ride-quality-summary\">Ride Quality Summary<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>All in all, <strong>the ride quality of the Ninebot Max G2 is nothing short of phenomenal<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>adjustable part-hydraulic suspension system<\/strong> makes a world of difference in shock absorption. The Navee ST3 Pro comes close with its dual suspension, but the Max G2's hydraulic front shock gives it a slight edge in overall comfort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The build is spacious, the ground clearance gives a <strong>reliable center of gravity<\/strong>, and the turn signals make the G2 a viable full-time commuting vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The G2 remains the most comfortable scooter under $1,000, though the ST3 Pro isn't far behind. The hydraulic front suspension and adjustability make the difference for riders prioritizing comfort above all else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The only thing that lacks improvement is the small, dim display they lazily borrowed from the G30P.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"product-block-wrapper\"><div class=\"product-block\"><a href=\"https:\/\/eridehero.com\/products\/segway-ninebot-max-g2\/\" class=\"product-left\"><div class=\"product-left\"><div class=\"product-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Segway-Ninebot-Max-G2-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"Segway Ninebot Max G2\" style=\"width: 50px; height: 50px;\" title=\"\"><\/div><div class=\"product-name\">Segway Ninebot Max G2<\/div><\/div><\/a><div class=\"product-right\"><div class=\"product-price-container\"><div class=\"product-price-history\">6M Avg: $802.88<\/div><div class=\"product-current-price\"><svg class=\"product-price-icon product-price-icon-down\"><use xlink:href=\"#icon-trending-down\"><\/use><\/svg>$<span>699<\/span>99<\/div><\/div><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B0C65CMKTK?tag=haxho-20&#038;linkCode=ogi&#038;th=1&#038;psc=1\" class=\"product-aff-link afftrigger\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Get Deal<svg><use xlink:href=\"#icon-external-link\"><\/use><\/svg><\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"portability\">Portability<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"http:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Segway-Ninebot-Max-G2-folded-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Segway Ninebot Max G2 folded\" class=\"wp-image-10777\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Segway-Ninebot-Max-G2-folded-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Segway-Ninebot-Max-G2-folded-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Segway-Ninebot-Max-G2-folded-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Segway-Ninebot-Max-G2-folded-500x281.jpg 500w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Segway-Ninebot-Max-G2-folded-400x225.jpg 400w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Segway-Ninebot-Max-G2-folded-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Segway-Ninebot-Max-G2-folded-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Segway-Ninebot-Max-G2-folded-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Segway-Ninebot-Max-G2-folded.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"firstparagraph\">The Max G2's enhanced capability and comfort inevitably come at the cost of added weight. Despite its 53.5 lbs (24.3 kg) weight, it still does many things right to make portability manageable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"weight-dimensions\">Weight &amp; Dimensions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>At <strong>53.5 lbs (24.3 kg)<\/strong>, the G2 isn't exactly lightweight. In fact, it is <strong>more than 12 lbs heavier than the Ninebot Max G30P<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table product minimalistic\"><table><thead><tr><th>Model<\/th><th>Weight (lbs)<\/th><th>Weight (kg)<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Segway Ninebot Max G2<\/td><td>53.5 lbs<\/td><td>24.3 kg<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Navee ST3 Pro<\/td><td>55 lbs<\/td><td>24.9 kg<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>NIU KQi 300X<\/td><td>48.7 lbs<\/td><td>22.1 kg<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Segway Ninebot Max G30P<\/td><td>41.2 lbs<\/td><td>18.7 kg<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Vmax VX2 Pro GT<\/td><td>45.6 lbs<\/td><td>20.7 kg<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><figcaption>Based on our own high-precision weight measurements.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The G2 sits in the middle-heavy range at 53.5 lbs. While it's actually 1.5 lbs lighter than the ST3 Pro, it's significantly heavier than the VX2 Pro GT (45.6 lbs) and KQi 300X (48.7 lbs). The extra weight comes from the robust build and triple suspension system, but it may be a dealbreaker for riders who need to carry their scooter regularly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Segway Ninebot KickScooter Max G2 measured <strong>22.4 x 50 x 47.2 in (56.9 x 127 x 119.9 cm) when unfolded<\/strong> and <strong>22.4 x 23.6 x 47.2 in (56.9 x 59.9 x 119.9 cm) when folded<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Its cubic size is around 26% larger than the G30P. This can make it hard to fit it into a regular trunk. In my own admittedly small car, I need to fold down the backseat to fit it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"folding-carrying\">Folding &amp;

To lock it in a folded position for carrying, you connect the spring clip on the right handlebar to a hook on the rear fender.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This results in the stem being <strong>slightly misaligned, not running in tandem with the deck<\/strong>. The misalignment makes the scooter somewhat uncomfortable to carry and lacks the neat appearance of stems that fold parallel to the deck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"build-quality-safety\">Build Quality &amp; Safety<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"firstparagraph\">The Ninebot Max G2 seamlessly merges ultra-reliable design with enhanced safety features and a weight limit of 265 lbs (120.2 kg). The result is a scooter that can confidently handle everything you throw at it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"frame\">Frame<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Like most electric scooters, the frame of the Ninebot Max G2 is <strong>primarily constructed from aluminum alloy<\/strong>. This material is a popular choice in the industry due to its<strong> impressive strength-to-weight ratio, resistance to corrosion, and ability to withstand heat<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One thing I noted during my inspection and tests is the sheer thickness of the material, which is also part of why the scooter sees a weight increase. The stem tube is incredibly thick, and the welding joints are very clean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is evident (and synonymous with the G-series) that the G2 is built to last through rough commutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"fenders\">Fenders<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"acfvideo\" data-src=\"https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Testing-the-sturdiness-of-the-fenders-on-the-Ninebot-Max-G2.mp4\">\n\t<video muted loop playsinline style=\"pointer-events: none;\" preload=\"none\"><\/video>\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Testing-the-sturdiness-of-the-fenders-on-the-Ninebot-Max-G2-1024x576.jpg\" class=\"acfvidimg\" alt=\"Testing the sturdiness of the fenders on the Ninebot Max G2\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Testing-the-sturdiness-of-the-fenders-on-the-Ninebot-Max-G2-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Testing-the-sturdiness-of-the-fenders-on-the-Ninebot-Max-G2-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Testing-the-sturdiness-of-the-fenders-on-the-Ninebot-Max-G2-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Testing-the-sturdiness-of-the-fenders-on-the-Ninebot-Max-G2-500x281.jpg 500w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Testing-the-sturdiness-of-the-fenders-on-the-Ninebot-Max-G2-400x225.jpg 400w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Testing-the-sturdiness-of-the-fenders-on-the-Ninebot-Max-G2-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Testing-the-sturdiness-of-the-fenders-on-the-Ninebot-Max-G2-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Testing-the-sturdiness-of-the-fenders-on-the-Ninebot-Max-G2-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Testing-the-sturdiness-of-the-fenders-on-the-Ninebot-Max-G2.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" title=\"\">\t<div class=\"video-controls\">\n\t\t<svg class=\"vid_play\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n\t\t\t<title>play<\/title>\n\t\t\t<path d=\"M5.541 2.159c-0.153-0.1-0.34-0.159-0.541-0.159-0.552 0-1 0.448-1 1v18c-0.001 0.182 0.050 0.372 0.159 0.541 0.299 0.465 0.917 0.599 1.382 0.3l14-9c0.114-0.072 0.219-0.174 0.3-0.3 0.299-0.465 0.164-1.083-0.3-1.382zM6 4.832l11.151 7.168-11.151 7.168z\"><\/path>\n\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<svg class=\"vid_loading\" style=\"display:none\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n\t\t<title>loader<\/title>\n\t\t<path d=\"M11 2v4c0 0.552 0.448 1 1 1s1-0.448 1-1v-4c0-0.552-0.448-1-1-1s-1 0.448-1 1zM11 18v4c0 0.552 0.448 1 1 1s1-0.448 1-1v-4c0-0.552-0.448-1-1-1s-1 0.448-1 1zM4.223 5.637l2.83 2.83c0.391 0.391 1.024 0.391 1.414 0s0.391-1.024 0-1.414l-2.83-2.83c-0.391-0.391-1.024-0.391-1.414 0s-0.391 1.024 0 1.414zM15.533 16.947l2.83 2.83c0.391 0.391 1.024 0.391 1.414 0s0.391-1.024 0-1.414l-2.83-2.83c-0.391-0.391-1.024-0.391-1.414 0s-0.391 1.024 0 1.414zM2 13h4c0.552 0 1-0.448 1-1s-0.448-1-1-1h-4c-0.552 0-1 0.448-1 1s0.448 1 1 1zM18 13h4c0.552 0 1-0.448 1-1s-0.448-1-1-1h-4c-0.552 0-1 0.448-1 1s0.448 1 1 1zM5.637 19.777l2.83-2.83c0.391-0.391 0.391-1.024 0-1.414s-1.024-0.391-1.414 0l-2.83 2.83c-0.391 0.391-0.391 1.024 0 1.414s1.024 0.391 1.414 0zM16.947 8.467l2.83-2.83c0.391-0.391 0.391-1.024 0-1.414s-1.024-0.391-1.414 0l-2.83 2.83c-0.391 0.391-0.391 1.024 0 1.414s1.024 0.391 1.414 0z\"><\/path>\n\t\t<\/svg>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>The <strong>fenders are well-designed to disperse water and thick enough to withstand some force<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I can't help but feel the rear fender could do with another contact point at the sides of the wheel for durability, but there is no obvious flimsiness, rattle, or tire rubbing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>rear fender has been slightly shortened\/lifted at the rear compared to the G30P<\/strong>.

I simulated skidding at a standstill, and it seems to make a difference in how the scooter accelerates once traction is lost and\/or you're riding at an angle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Exactly how it works is hard to say, but after riding several times in the rain, <strong>I felt a little more safe and in control<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"smartphone-app\">Smartphone App<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"513\" src=\"http:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Screenshots-from-the-Segway-Ninebot-smartphone-app-with-the-G2-connected-1024x513.jpg\" alt=\"Screenshots from the Segway Ninebot smartphone app with the G2 connected\" class=\"wp-image-10832\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Screenshots-from-the-Segway-Ninebot-smartphone-app-with-the-G2-connected-1024x513.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Screenshots-from-the-Segway-Ninebot-smartphone-app-with-the-G2-connected-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Screenshots-from-the-Segway-Ninebot-smartphone-app-with-the-G2-connected-768x385.jpg 768w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Screenshots-from-the-Segway-Ninebot-smartphone-app-with-the-G2-connected-500x250.jpg 500w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Screenshots-from-the-Segway-Ninebot-smartphone-app-with-the-G2-connected-400x200.jpg 400w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Screenshots-from-the-Segway-Ninebot-smartphone-app-with-the-G2-connected-600x300.jpg 600w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Screenshots-from-the-Segway-Ninebot-smartphone-app-with-the-G2-connected-800x401.jpg 800w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Screenshots-from-the-Segway-Ninebot-smartphone-app-with-the-G2-connected.jpg 1306w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>The Segway Ninebot app (free on Android and iOS) <strong>houses a plethora of useful features<\/strong> for the G2. One in particular has me hyped up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is a list of the main features:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Ride statistics (and ride history)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Detailed battery health (voltage, temperature, power)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Smart locking system<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cruise control (on\/off)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Energy recovery strength (regen, 1-3)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Walk mode (limits scooter to 3.1 MPH)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Start speed (useful for enabling zero-start)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Imperial\/metric unit usage<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Customizable top speed and acceleration curve<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Apple Find My integration<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Taillight modes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Traction Control System (TCS)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Turn signal audio response<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Charging limit<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>As you can see, the list of features is vast. I really love the next-level customizability this scooter offers. Particularly <strong>the option to set a charging limit is genius<\/strong>. Limiting charging to 80% is great for storing the scooter for several weeks without using it. This maximizes battery life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"verdict-who-should-buy-the-ninebot-max-g2\">Verdict - Who Should Buy The Ninebot Max G2?<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"http:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Rasmus-from-ERideHero-riding-the-segway-ninebot-max-g2-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Rasmus from ERideHero riding the segway ninebot max g2\" class=\"wp-image-10846\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Rasmus-from-ERideHero-riding-the-segway-ninebot-max-g2-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Rasmus-from-ERideHero-riding-the-segway-ninebot-max-g2-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Rasmus-from-ERideHero-riding-the-segway-ninebot-max-g2-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Rasmus-from-ERideHero-riding-the-segway-ninebot-max-g2-500x281.jpg 500w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Rasmus-from-ERideHero-riding-the-segway-ninebot-max-g2-400x225.jpg 400w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Rasmus-from-ERideHero-riding-the-segway-ninebot-max-g2-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Rasmus-from-ERideHero-riding-the-segway-ninebot-max-g2-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Rasmus-from-ERideHero-riding-the-segway-ninebot-max-g2-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Rasmus-from-ERideHero-riding-the-segway-ninebot-max-g2.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>The Segway Ninebot Max G2 is the <strong>most comfortable electric scooter I've ever tested under $1000<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The G2 excels at ride comfort thanks to its hydraulic front suspension and adjustable triple shock system - slightly edging out even the excellent Navee ST3 Pro. For riders prioritizing the smoothest possible ride, proven Segway reliability, and a polished app experience, the G2 delivers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the 36V battery system is a real limitation. Performance drops noticeably at 50% charge, while competitors like the ST3 Pro and KQi 300X maintain full speed down to 20% battery. This means the second half of your ride may feel sluggish - particularly frustrating on longer commutes.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"new_columns-2-2751\" class=\"ct-new-columns\" ><div id=\"div_block-3-2751\" class=\"ct-div-block pros\" ><h4 id=\"headline-7-2751\" class=\"ct-headline\">Buy It If:<\/h4><div id=\"_rich_text-4-2751\" class=\"oxy-rich-text\" ><ul>\n<li>You prioritize ride comfort above all else<\/li>\n<li>You value Segway's proven track record and ecosystem<\/li>\n<li>You find it discounted below the ST3 Pro<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div><\/div><div id=\"div_block-5-2751\" class=\"ct-div-block pros cons\" ><h4 id=\"headline-10-2751\" class=\"ct-headline\">Skip It If:<\/h4><div id=\"_rich_text-6-2751\" class=\"oxy-rich-text\" ><ul>\n<li>You have steep hills to climb late in the battery cycle (below 50%)<\/li>\n<li>You want 35+ miles of range<\/li>\n<li>The Navee ST3 Pro is priced the same<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"product-block-wrapper\"><div class=\"product-block\"><a href=\"https:\/\/eridehero.com\/products\/segway-ninebot-max-g2\/\" class=\"product-left\"><div class=\"product-left\"><div class=\"product-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/eridehero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Segway-Ninebot-Max-G2-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"Segway Ninebot Max G2\" style=\"width: 50px;
