Kukirin G2 Max electric scooter test

The assembly is fine, it doesn't rattle, it doesn't rattle, it doesn't want to fall apart, and the manufacturer claims that the scooter is also protected according to the IP54 standard.

As for the finger-pulled performance rubber, for this Roll-Base János said that it is an adhesive material that solidifies under pressure, so I should step on the sufficiently long and wide step, I won't be able to pick it up after 3 days. And really, it smoothed out nicely, and since that was the only point where I wanted to tease about the quality, that was also dropped. What is unpleasant, however, is its weight, 31 kilos including the seat, which is a lot for carrying on the stairs, by removing the seat and its console approx. You can save 2000 grams. In any case, this sitting position is pretty cool, I went like this for a while, but then I took it off because I didn't like the feeling of living in a reclining position, and you can't even fold the scooter. And carrying by the neck is uncomfortable, it is better to lower the steering wheel, so let go of this topic of the seat.

Let's run through the technical parameters, the scooter is 1000W, but more importantly it feels more powerful than the 1200W Kukirin G3. I went back to back with both and it was noticeable how much better the G2 Max is. This means that we quickly reach a speed of 40 kilos per hour, and he could suffer himself from there under me up to 47 km/h the Kukirin G2 Max, but it doesn't suit him anymore. Its wheel is 10 inches, that is, it is eerily similar to the technical parameters of a 50cc scooter, only on electric bases. It's a shame that even in the middle of the city I felt at the bottom of the food chain - but there's the Kukirin G3 Pro - because it's not going well enough to pick up the rhythm with the cars, but you will be the emperors on the bike lane. It is true that where the road is good, the racing bikes come at 50 in a technical shirt, so they also know this pace, but the performance is more than enough to overtake the average scooter/cyclist.

These balloon tires are rubbish, unnecessarily noisy and noisy, replace them.

His brakes are good though, he didn't hit, he held like the danger, there is no ABS, so you can rear, but the Kukrin G2 Max blocks and slides in return, one more reason for a good tire. Unfortunately, after 40-50 kilometers he squeaked also the dial, not yet in a terrible way, but annoyingly so. Since the rim is large, the left, factory disc larger than 160 can also be mounted on it, if you want to improve it. The pad covers almost the entire surface, unlike some of the poorer competitors, which is probably why the braking effect is so good.

Its shock absorption is great, like the G2 Pro, only designed for a slightly larger mass.

It can go down nicely, absorbs road defects, in which the larger wheel size is also a partner. I asked the Roll-Basecan the spring be replaced in , it is possible, but there is a PU rod in it, which there is a good chance not, so it is not certain that you will be able to change the damping. Fortunately, this is (also) a well-done part of the scooter, that shock-absorbing casting and the embodied resistance itself, I don't think this will be a problem in the long run.

The system is 48 V, the battery is 20 Ah, which adds up to 960 Wh, which is quite a lot.

The manufacturer gives a range of 60-80 kilos, that's it in practice it will be more like 45-55, depending on your gas lever habits. I didn't really want to go slowly with him, my team over mountains and valleys, so the expected reference did not come together: a 75-kilogram person, on a flat road, in the heat, with 25. Of course, you can suffer the 60-80, but no one will wish for the suffering that comes with it. However, the large capacity has one drawback: the long charging time. 10-11 o'clock. This is longer than a sleep cycle, so it's not enough to put it on at night to be ready in the morning. There is no fast charging, although at this level it should be and premium manufacturers also offer something like this. Summarizing the above: good engine, brakes and damping, decent driving performance, great range, then where is the bitch?

One is the steering wheel closing mechanism, which I think is a…

This winding in and out is annoying, the Kukirin G3, on the other hand, has a safety spring, automatically closing solution, which can be used with one movement. For this reason, the display must also be turned on your console, which will therefore flounder in the longer term, you can constantly drag it, it makes no sense. The other thing that I think is extra lame is the handlebar hook. which must then be charmed out of the hole if you want to set the steering wheel vertically. Why?

Then an ignition key? If you fall, there will be something that sticks in you, it's not good for anything else.

Is there also the otherwise massive and easy-to-use stand, which could not have been hidden on the side of the deck? Így beats on your legs and even reduces the waist height. There is no LED in the stage, which is why it could not have been solved better. There are still the lamps and this terrible mess that was put together with them. The first unit with cooling fins is still okay, it is similar to the G2 Pro, it is also quite good. But the red ones on the side are not visible, and the index is not good for anything. What do you think the red flashing pilác means? I think a brake light with a faulty contact or the signal light at the end of the radio tower installed on airplanes, but definitely not indexing. The bagpipe is an electric whine, neither a bell nor a motor horn. To take it all back, throw it in the trash and replace it with something normal.

The above rant may seem unreasonable, but an almost perfect scooter was ruined by these little things.

It's lucky that none of them really matter, because there are those who will never close the steering wheel, a normal index can be installed afterwards, a bike bell costs HUF 2000, but there are also excellent electric horns on the market. None of them should be a reason not to buy, since all the technical parameters are excellent, as is the travel comfort. Plus, with this range, you can already go hiking, I think you can go around Lake Venice - which has a circumference of 28 kilometers - twice with very fine use.

And in the city, the Kukirin G2 Max is a beast because the front is light, and if you step on the rear kickstand, you can raise the nose.

In other words, the one-wheeling shown in the press material can really be done with it, but I do not recommend it. It's perfect on and off the bench, it can withstand jumping and beating, in fact, the good springing almost requires a firm grip in the city. Its steering wheel is adjustable, so it's no problem for taller people to stand on it, and besides, the steering tube doesn't hang, it doesn't even move, its backlash is almost zero.

I also consider the central display important, which is also inherited from the G2 Pro, so it is a perfectly usable solution.

Kukirin G2 Max displays everything important, even the voltage, from which you can better infer the remaining "play time". In addition, it automatically switches between the ODO and TRIP values, you don't need to press anything, the maximum is the speed limiter. The three stages max out at around 17/39/47 km/h, the machine is also very livable in "two", I used it that way many times. There is a cruise control, it can be set in the service menu - three quick presses - nothing else is really worth checking out of the values. Interesting fact: the display says "single", i.e. single-motor mode, this is because the Kukirin G3 Pron there is also this piece, and it has two motors, but its drive can be switched, which is also visible on the panel.

That's it, I think many other scooter owners would agree with this.

The null revision of the Kukirin G2 Pro roller is carried out by our cooperating partner, a Roll-Base performed by electric scooter and bicycle service. If you need appropriate expertise, if you want to have it repaired or rebuilt, feel free to contact János Varga, at Roll-Base to the owner.
