Segway Ninebot F2/F2 Pro Electric Scooter, Up to 20 MPH, Long Range, UL-2271 & UL-2272 Certified

My previous scooter was a generic clone of a popular low-cost Xiaomi scooter. For $200 more, this Ninebot F2 Pro is immeasurably better in every metric.HANDLING: The handlebars are wide enough for good maneuverability. It feels more stable than the generic scooter. When I ride this scooter, it doesn't feel like I'm on the edge at all times, it's a more relaxed ride. I have enabled the stability enhancement feature in the settings but don't really understand how it works.SUSPENSION: These 10-inch air tires coupled with a front-only suspension feel much smoother than the generic scooter with front and back suspension and 10-inch solid tires. My knees don't feel sour after an 11-mile ride.BRAKES: Excellent braking power, even while going downhill. The front wheel has a proper mechanical disc brake. I configured the battery regen setting at Medium so it helped with braking. The scooter didn't exceed 16 mph while traveling down a medium hill thanks to that feature. If you ride this scooter in city blocks and time the distance to the intersection properly, you will rarely use the manual brake lever.HILL CLIMBING: I live in San Francisco and we have 4 levels of hills: small, medium, big, and heart attack. This scooter can climb a medium hill at a consistent speed of 13 mph, which is very impressive for the price and the single motor. It feels powerful and fast. In comparison, the generic scooter was unable to climb the upper half of the same medium hill without assistive kicks.DISTANCE: I weigh 165 lbs and used the max 20mph speed setting. I rode it in the city so the scooter had to slow down at every intersection. I release the throttle after crossing 3/4th of the block to allow it to slow down instead of braking hard at the intersection. I traveled 11 miles with 30% battery left. The terrain was approximately 33% flat, 29% small hill, 5% medium hill, and 33% downhill. Sometimes I used the throttle while riding down the small hills because the battery regen feature slowed it down too much, so I plan to configure it to the Lowest setting. The generic scooter also had a battery regen feature but that felt like a gimmick compared to this. I'm happy with the range. If you live in a flat city and use a slower speed, you'll get a very long range from this.APP: There were three firmware updates immediately after logging into the app. You can customize pretty much everything. Pairing its built-in AirTag with my iPhone required only a minute.ADDONS: The hook is great; I can hang groceries and other stuff. The brake light is big and visible. Turn lights are a nice addon.I will update this review after several weeks.

A friend recommended getting a scooter for fun , running errands and just ditching the car. I wasn’t sure if I’d like it. Thought it was a kids thing. I love it! Ride several times a week. The hook can hold two plastic grocery bags. Love riding into town and ditching the car. We get small groups for urban assaults. For reference this is the F2 Pro.6’ tall, 50yrs old, male, at 208lbs.Eco is nice for sightseeing& slow cruise. it’s actually nicer to look around at 9mph .Drive mode accelerates rather slow at first then gets faster. Cap at 16mph. I usually use this mode on cruise control 12-13mph when going places. I get a little over 16 miles range including a 1mile long bridge. Setting the cruise at 15 for the bridge it slows to 12.5 near the peak but never stops. It will not start well from a stop on an incline in this mode.Sport mode is FUN with brisk acceleration up to 20mph. Setting cruise at 15 for the bridge in this mode it only slowed to 14.5 just before the peak!Lights, turn signals, code lock all good. Love the smooth ride on the air tires. It folds up and is portable but not far at 41 lbs. I put a phone mount on the bars and use the detailed dashboard on the app. I also added some led lights for underneath to make it more visible at night . Love it so far.

These are outstanding and in my opinion, the brand to buy. There are many brands out there but with Segway behind this you get an excellent app that allows you to change MANY settings, upgrade the firmware, and doubles as a screen while you're riding (I also recommend the Ninebot phone holder). The "find my" feature is also a nice touch. These things are nearly silent and fast, and they feel very secure while riding. The handlebar width is bigger than most which helps you have a more secure stance. I think the only improvement they could make would be weight (they are a little on the heavy side, but similar to competing models) and foldability. These do fold but it would be nice if the handlebar would collapse to decrease the storage width. Highly recommend!

I bought the Segway Ninebot Electric Scooter F2 Pro a couple of months ago and already had battery issues. I tried to get it replaced under warranty, but they told me it would only be covered if I bought it from their own website, not from Amazon. This makes no sense to me. I’ve never had this problem with other brands. It’s really frustrating, and now I’m stuck with a scooter that doesn’t work right. I wouldn’t recommend this scooter to anyone – there are way better options out there with more reliable customer service. Total disappointment!
