"The dual braking system is something i didn't know i needed but have since come to love due to random pedestrians who do not love their lives."

"Haven’t you he’d the c3 since. ... Granted I live in a small apt in NYC ... Even if the c3 is much better at cleaning, it doesn’t mean much to me if it means I’ll only vacuum every other week vs once a day."

chihawks 1.0Hiboy s2 pro. Its needs new screws. Thats it. Its forsure needing new tires tho and pads
Errldabble_710 1.034 and have a hiboy s2 pro strictly for the commute to work. I ride the shit of it and carve it like I'm on a long board lol people love it.
Lowkey brings the kid out in me and I love it
feenfamfun 1.0I just bought the hiboy S2 pro for my husband yesterday. Warning that the handlebars are not adjustable so if your partner is short it won’t work. My husband is 6’2” tall and he rode it this morning about a 2 mile commute from parking to his job site. He loves it. On sale right now at Best Buy for $300, it’s normally $500, and $550 on hiboys website.
Fit_Construction3058 1.0The E2 Pro struggles with steep hills especially if you're heavier than like 150lbs - those Appalachian grades are no joke. For that budget I'd honestly look at the Hiboy S2 Pro or save up a bit more for something with dual motors, you'll thank yourself later when you're not walking up every incline
Go4KWdelivery 1.0I'm enjoying my $404 Hiboy S2 Pro that goes 18mph with my 220lb body on it

marijuanam0nk 1.0This isn't accurate because my beloved HiBoy S2 Pro isn't in the top 5.
Mfarooq360 1.0Left: HiBoy S2 Pro - February 2024 - ~3000 miles Middle: iSinWheel S10 Max - September 2024 - ~1500 miles Right: KuKirin G2 Master - January 2025 - ~300 miles The HiBoy is the new revision one that apparently fixed the stem snapping issue and has been very reliable to me with no maintenance needed throughout its life (The front tire needs replacing soon though). It took around 25 minutes to get to work on this scooter. I lent it to my cousin at around 1400 miles and got it back recently. The iSinWheel was pretty good until it wasn’t, with issues such as a suspension bolt coming off (should’ve tightened them all first), and the motor overheating unknowingly at around 600 miles in after going uphill in the heat, which lead to the top speed permanently reducing from 28 to 24mph on GPS (It still shows 28mph on the speedometer since it’s off by around 4mph). It took around 20 minutes to get to work on this scooter. My cousin bought it from me for $200 at around 1200 miles. The KuKirin is just incredible, rated at 37mph, yet it can reach up to 41mph with my weight on flat ground. The cable brakes aren’t amazing, but after enabling regenerative braking in the P settings, it has helped me stop faster and significantly reduce break pad wear. It’s also one of the newer revisions with little to no wobble at top speed. It takes around 15 minutes to get to work on this scooter. I could’ve gone for an Ausom Gallop, but I needed something I could actually lift into the trunk of a car. Overall, I’m enjoying this scooter a lot, and it has been replacing my car for me a lot more often compared to my other scooters I had.
The first scooter was a 19mph one, and I bought it to test the waters and ended up using it a lot more often than I thought I would. I later lent it to my cousin after upgrading. The second scooter went 28mph and I thought that would be the all I needed until the motor overheated silently and reduced the top speed to 24mph. I upgraded again after letting my cousin buy it off of me. I was already aware of regen braking causing controllers to burn out, so I set it to the lowest setting and monitored the voltage while doing so, and it seems to be a much smaller difference compared to the voltage sag, so I’m hoping it’ll be fine. The regen only starts working when you lightly press the brakes, otherwise it coasts. I’m mostly using it to compensate for the cable brakes to allow me to brake faster and save my brake pads since they wear quick on this scooter at high speeds.
NoFaceNoName1972 1.0Lol I started on that.Hiboy.S2 Pro as well. Brings.back memories.
