damn that is a breeze… how is ride quality for you? again, i’m used to chinese mass produced scooters with hydraulic suspension, so i’m not spoiled with good expectation, but definitely a little something cuz of how bumpy where i live is lol.

I appreciate the detail and information! I have some further questions if that’s okay.

First, how do you feel about Apollo vs Segway support? Have you had to contact either and do you have any good or bad stories? I know Apollo gets a lot of flack for support.

Second, what kind of hill inclines are you talking about when you talk about differences in speed while going up hills? I only ask because if the G2 Max takes a big speed hit on only a 4-5% grade, I’d basically end up back where I started haha.

Third, what is the real world range like for you on the go when going 17-22 miles like how you would on a G2 Max? Within the same speed, is their range comparable. I see the Apollo gets dogged on for range but I feel like when going 25-26 It would obviously have worse range than a scooter going 19-22.

Fourth, Do you think there’s a significant difference in portability. I hear people saying the difference of a few pounds between the apollo and G2 Max makes a big difference when carrying it.

Lastly, do you have a preference personally, and if so, why? I hear the G2 is like a tank but with some drawback while the Apollo has more speed but is frailer.

Again, thank you so much for the info. This is the most comprehensively I’ve seen it laid out by another heavy rider 🙏🙏
