        It's like jaywalking. Everyone does it but then one day you bump into a cop who's having a bad day and get $2400 in fines.

        1. Unregistered vehicle
        2. Riding on the footpath
        3. No helmet
        4. Speeding

          I thought you were allowed to ride on footpaths unless there were local Council laws (for CBDs, etc).

              @StickBug: Ah, I thought he was referring to riding a bike on the footpath, which is legal (at least in QLD) unless there there is a local Council law forbidding it certain areas (normally the CBD). As for scooters, fortunately I live in QLD, and I am still amazed that we are ahead of NSW/VIC for eScooters and Drones (normally it seems that we are behind the rest of the country)

                @punkel: The main difference comes from how a person falls if knocked off. (1st part injury)

                And how much braking force can be applied on small scooter wheels before a lock-up. (3rd party injury)

                I agree, they should be legal, but scooters ARE significantly more dangerous than bicycles.

                  @MasterScythe: Add in that 50% will have the speed limiter removed about 5 mins after it get's home. Plenty of scooters doing >50kmh down the Brissie bike paths.

                  @MasterScythe: I don't think you have any data to say that a scooter is more dangerous than a bike. I would say it's the opposite. Scooters don't require the same level of skill or balance to ride when compared to a bike. They are harder to crash. They are slower than a bike, and you don't ride them on a road and share space with cars.

            • vindictus on 04/12/2020 - 06:10

              @StickBug: Some are, most that you see aren't. I see the 500W+ BAFANGs regularly. No cop is going to check your wattage though. Different story with electric scooters and skateboards, both of which are explicitly illegal

          • mubd1234 on 03/12/2020 - 16:07

            @punkel: The RMS specifically says that motorised bicycles up to 250W are OK, but any other form of motorised transport needs to be registered (which means complying with ADRs, which these scooters certainly do not). Remember that e-Bikes are illegal to ride on the footpath as well (yes, people DO get fined).

            The problem is that these also have relatively poor brakes compared to bicycles/scooters/motorbikes, they are designed to mingle around pedestrians, and you're not in a seated position.

        lawmakers are in the process of legalising PEV's (Personal Electric Vehicles).
        they agreed that all states should adopt a consistant standard. it WILL become legal.

        i have both e-scooter and skateboard. i ride past cops at the train station every day. they mostly turn heads and are fascinated with the skateboard as its very stealthy and they cant see the motor/batteries, some smile and give thumbs up. But yeah, you bump into the wrong cop one day and you can get a fine.

        always ride respectfully with proper safety gear and you have nothing to worry about.

    is this worth upgrading from the m365 version?

    far as i can tell its heavier, with much longer range, and improved braking. only the improved braking is of appeal to me. hmmmm

    • SuperMrBlob on 03/12/2020 - 15:54

      I believe it has a stronger motor (250/500 -> 300/600) so going up inclines and acceleration is a bit better.

      • lawyerz on 03/12/2020 - 15:58

        doesn't seem like its enough reason to upgrade. I do feel the braking power of the m365 is very lacking, and always wished for one with (much) better braking.

      • MasterScythe on 03/12/2020 - 17:54

        That said, genuine 700w wheels for the m365 can be found for $150 import; so its not the most ideal reason.

  • S3ISOR on 03/12/2020 - 15:18
    +16

    This is a great price. I bought this scooter in the recent eBay sale at $660 from the Xiaomi eBay store and for me it's a perfect balance of speed vs range vs weight. I'm a somewhat heavy guy (89KG, close to 95KG with bag, etc) and it's very speedy on a straight (easy 25kph) and pulls OK (17-18kph) up hills. My only advice is to frequently check the tire air pressure (every other week) and keep it up at 50PSI as the specs say. You should mostly avoid punctures this way. (And not to sell more Xiaomi stuff, but the Xiaomi pump is perfect for scooter tyres because the screw on/off hose releases almost no air when you connect/disconnect from the valve)

    • Wsk on 03/12/2020 - 15:20

      Does it come with the pump or it's a separate purchase?

      • S3ISOR on 03/12/2020 - 15:21
        +1

        It's a separate purchase - it's not really necessary if you've already got a pump, but I found it useful for all the bikes/scooters in our family because it is precise and light. The scooter only comes with spare tyre, valve hose extension and charger.

      • lawyerz on 03/12/2020 - 15:33

        get the xiaomi electric pump $57. it makes pumping these MUCH easier than a regular pump. I have both.

    • lawyerz on 03/12/2020 - 15:35

      I've never had a puncture on mine thankfully, but if i did i would have no idea how to change the tube. I do have spare tyres/tube that came with my original purchase of the non pro version lol.

      And I have four bikes and very familiar with changing inner tubes on bikes.

      • keejoonc on 04/12/2020 - 11:48

        You are in for a surprise then. Changing tubes and tyres on these things are a nightmare. Not sure if Xiaomi made any design changes in Pro 2 but if it's same as the previous model, good luck when you eventually have to fix a puncture or replace the tyres.
        Changing tubes on a bike is a piece of cake and can even be done on the side of the road.

        • lawyerz on 04/12/2020 - 11:58

          I hope I never get a puncture here's crossing all my fingers and toes. What a terrible design I'd it's so hard to change a tube.

          • keejoonc on 04/12/2020 - 12:00

            @lawyerz: I don't think Xiaomi thought about ease of maintenance when they designed this damn thing.
            I've done about 3,000kms on mine and it's still going strong but there are a lot of stupid designs on this product.

    • mathematicalcoffee on 03/12/2020 - 16:34

      "because the screw on/off hose releases almost no air when you connect/disconnect from the valve)" > interested in this. I have a foot pump with screw on/screw off valve and lose heaps of air while trying to frantically unscrew the pump, particularly the front wheel where the bit of the valve on the wheel that you can reach is very short. How does the Xiaomi pump differ? (the pictures are not clear of the attachment mechanism?) Is there some alternative? (I have the m365, unsure if its valve is any different from the pro)

            2. Attach the pump with the xiaomi lead
            3. Pump up

        I've shot a short video showing the difference between the Xiaomi portable pump and Dewalt portable pump on my Xiaomi Pro 2 scooter. I use the Dewalt for my cars. You can hear the difference in how much air is released between the two. I'm not sure what is different in the design that causes the difference amounts of air to be released, but because the tire is so small you lose about 5-7 PSI when detaching the Dewalt.

          I don’t use a threaded inflator nozzle though. I use a floor pump with a friction nozzle, ie you pull a lever on the nozzle to create a seal between the nozzle and the valve.

      Fill the tires with slime.

      Literally, a puncture prevention liquid called slime.

      Will also stop the valve leaking, so you dont need to check the pressure as often.

    • packeteer on 04/12/2020 - 11:31

      50psi is to high imo, I ride the Segway Ninebot Max and the manual says 32 - 37 psi which I find is a good pressure.

      As for a pump, I got a nice little hand pump from 99 Bikes for under $50. a couple of pumps every week is sufficient

        Nope. It's still illegal even if you are not caught.
