For all those considering the Speedway 5, or considering it against another scooter (such as the Dualtron Thunder), I wanted to post my very recent experience (I tested and purchased the Speedway 5 from Lastmile in San Francisco two days ago). Bottom-line: Love it! I went in for the test rides thinking the Dualtron Thunder was the scooter I would buy. I was intrigued by the Speedway 5 from videos I had watched here on RU-vid, but I was a bit concerned it would have enough power, especially hill-climbing power, because I weigh 250 lbs. and I live in the mountains. One 10 minute test ride erased those worries from my mind: Straight up a few San Francisco steep hills (easily). It was smooth, powerful, gilded nicely, etc. I then tried the Dualtron Thunder and, honestly, to my huge surprise, immediately hated it! I hated how it rode. I didn't like the balance, the feel on the road, etc. I was completely shocked! I took it back within minutes and purchased the Speedway 5 and an upgraded fast charger. I don't know if my satisfaction will continue (I'll have to see how the scooter holds up after a bit of riding) but, for now, I'm extremely happy that I saved myself about $1500 getting a scooter that I FAR preferred. If you're a big guy (okay, I'll say FAT), don't worry too much: This scooter, regardless of the lower specs than the Thunder, is plenty powerful to haul you around; and it's far smoother at a significantly less price. I wanted to post, because I had many concerns that I assume others might have when thinking about what scooter to buy. I hope this helps somebody out. Peace.

I have the speedway IV Pro. I put 800 miles on it in about four months. Absolutely love it. Thing handles like a dream and compact enough I bring it in any store I go into and that's with not even folding it up. I can hit a top speed of 30 miles an hour with a 50 to 60 mile range. The speedway 5 looks awesome. Got to handle even better with the new front suspension. I would love to have the Speedway 5 with the single 800. The Dual 800 would be excellent but they definitely have to have a bigger battery in it. I believe they all come with the same size battery. I promise you with that dual motor you be getting 35 to 40 miles Max.

Another thing when it comes to the folding bars they use on the speedway they can be tricky. It took me the first 50 miles of riding to get the set screws just perfect so that the bars don't come loose after riding.

@jpoorr9973 5 лет назад

@@marky678 One more thing. Being that this is my first scooter and I keep it inside in the air conditioning. I always clean and inspect the tires after every ride. I pulled out a staple and a couple pieces of glass that were embedded into the rear tire. Since I caught the problem right away and got them out I avoided flat and destroyed rear tire. Your Speedway 5 with 20 extra pounds definitely do that. At nine hundred miles on mine the rear tire is now showing signs of wear nothing too bad. Probably get another 500 miles out of it. Again with yours having that extra weight and dual motors they're going to wear quicker and pick up more trash off the roads so keep an eye on them. At least they did put Quality Tires on the scooter.

This video has been posted in december 2018. I'd like to know if Sophia had problems with the Speedway 5 ? How many miles did she ride up to now ? I was planning to purchase the EMOVE Cruiser but I guess that one motor can't get me up some hills, (200 pounds). The Speedway 5 could be a lot better for me, but I'd like some feedback. Thanks

@AlienRides 4 года назад

I don't know how many miles she rode her Speedway V for, but I don't believe it had any major problems at all. The only problems I'm really aware of on the Speedway V is that the suspension starts to go after a while, but can be replaced/fixed. The Speedway 5 is a much faster scooter, so if you're worried about hills, and can afford the Speedway, I'd definitely recommend that.

@SpiffyGiraffeCreations 5 лет назад

For some just getting into electric scooters what would you say is the best one to get as far as price and range?

@AlienRides 5 лет назад

THX SHANE hello! There really is no best, especially since range (batteries) has an inverse relationship with price. My recommendation: figure out your budget, then look for the best within that budget. The Speedway V at 23ah is certainly a good long range scooter if you can swing it. (Not really cheap though)

@SpiffyGiraffeCreations 5 лет назад

I am definitely considering the Speedway V! It looks great and seems to be what I am looking for as far as range goes. Thanks for the response! Before this I was looking at the Ninebot Max because of the price and the range but heard horror stories about their costumer service.

@AlienRides 5 лет назад

I get asked this quite a lot and it's hard to pick a clear winner. For going fast, the Speedway V wins because it has 60v motors. For offroading and jumping things, the Zero 10X is a blast to ride with its trampoline-like suspension. Both are awesome scooters for sure, both have some issues with the handlebars (they become noisy/shakey over time). Hope it's helpful, but not sure I can help the confusion. Good luck!

I'm 267 lbs at 6'3. The speedway is limited to 265lb. I'm leaning towards the speedway v but the 10x has a higher weight limit. I live in Dallas and the roads are kind of rough here. In my case would you go with the 10x? Does the speedway have enough power for me? Seems like the speedway is more portable then the 10x which is another reason why I like it better.

@samuelhartsock1177 4 года назад

@AlienRides 4 года назад

Thank you! Agree that the Speedway V is slightly more portable, it the same weight as the 10X. I think both scooters should have enough power to rocket you around town. I feel that both scooters should support your weight also, that’s more like a loose guideline and you can always swap out the suspension if needed.

@lovin2act 4 года назад

Hi Allen! Would you say the range of 75 miles they market is accurate, or close to accurate? I have two Emove Cruisers (one for my wife) but want a bit more speed when I am riding alone at times. I doubt I would ride consistently over 30mph very much. I am kinda held back by the Chinese cheaper battery and don't want to waste my money if it's going to crap out on me super fast either. But definitely curious on real world range for this!

@AlienRides 4 года назад

I pretty much cut down any advertised speeds by half or more. Riding at full speed I would bet it's less than 30 miles of range. These days I might recommend the Dualtron Eagle Pro over the Speedway V. It's newer, and built slightly better I believe.

@AlienRides 5 лет назад

Good questions. Although they both run at 60 volts, you can't really compare this to the Thunder, as the Thunder runs at higher amps and watts. The Thunder will probably be 5-10 mph faster than the Speedway. The Thunder battery is also larger, at 35ah (vs 23ah), so you'll get more range. But the Speedway is more portable, and lightweight, maybe easier to maneuver when needed for standard commuting. The crazy looking scooter is my friend's totally custom scooter. I'm hoping to do a video on that one in the near future.

Don't worry about your weight electric motors have 3 times the torque than Combustion engines those Duel direct drive hub motors they using on those scooters are very durable super powerful and torque monsters they can pull a car from 5000-7000 watts geared or un-gearded brushess hub motors my brother was 6'5" weighed 380lbs and my Schwinn Stealth modified 5000-7000 watt had zero problems yanking him around or putting him on his ass on hard throttle but 4000 watts and above can pull a heavy load easy all day everyday to full speed the weight limit is mainly judged by weather the chassis or frame and suspension are built to support the weight avertized on the chassis but the basic frames that's solid can hold 300lbs plus and strong enough to ride off the curbs if it's a quality scooter

@lanceguilin 4 года назад

@@AlienRides They sure can get punctures but the theory goes that with tubed tires, with the constant start / stop / acceleration of escooters, the tube rubs against the tire tread very often and that over time this rubbing action itself can cause the inner tube to wear out and produce a flat tire. This is in addition to the same kind of puncture you can get from a nail or piece of sharp glass puncturing the tire tread for both kinds of tires.

I think I found my scooter. Question. Does it come with full warranty for instance of the controller melted they replace it free? I've heard of nightmares. Thanks.

@AlienRides 4 года назад

Rxonmymind it would be worth visiting San Francisco to go to last mile in person I think. If something goes wrong with the scooter they will fix it for free while under warranty. If you buy online you usually have to do that work yourself.

im really torn with this or the inokim oxo

@AlienRides 4 года назад

Yeah, that's a tough call for sure. I haven't ridden the oxo, but I've heard they're pretty good machines. I'd love to get one to compare. Good luck with your decision!

@@AlienRides this or the spider in ur opinion? U deserved more subscribers mate. Wellndeserved

@AlienRides 4 года назад

chuck noel the spider is a really fun ride for sure, just an awesome amount of power for a smaller and lightweight package. If you can afford the spider limited with the 24ah battery that would be my recommendation. It is more expensive than the speedway V I believe, and maybe a little slower, but I do like the spider a lot. And thanks, the channel is growing slowly and I’m happy with that :)

@bikesandfamily3082 4 года назад

@@AlienRides i subscribed u already mate. Im worried about controller issues of spider. Wonder if they fixed it already. Would u go for speedway 5 over spider if portability is not a big thing?

@AlienRides 4 года назад

chuck noel if you’re lighter, maybe 185 lbs or less, the spider is probably fine now. If portability is not a concern at all, the speedway V is an excellent choice. To make your choice even harder, the dualtron 3 might be a nice option as well if you want a slightly bigger battery - though performance is about the same as the speedway.

Is it faster than the zero 10?

@AlienRides 5 лет назад

Dan smith yeah it is for sure! Mainly just due to voltage. This runs at 60v, while the 10X runs at 52v.

@AlienRides 5 лет назад

Both are really fun scooters though!

@paramandans 5 лет назад

Alien Rides I get that but witch one is better and or faster? Thanks

@AlienRides 5 лет назад

Dan smith hard to say which is better, the Speedway V is faster for sure, but the 10X suspension is really fun and smooth.

@@paulaguirre8312 I haven't tried the spider yet, but it seems like a really capable machine for it's weight class. It's super light weight, I think definitely a great scooter. Did you get it yet? Would love to hear what you think once it arrives.

@paulaguirre8312 5 лет назад

@@AlienRides oh no I haven't gotten it yet, the shipping is delayed for some reason but I am supposed to get it mid January from ewheels. All I know is that the acceleration will be insane but the top speed will be only ok. I'll keep you posted when I receive it.

@rickdeckard9810 5 лет назад

Thanks, how would you compare the suspension on the Speedway V to the Zero 10x? looking forward the the review of the 8x once it's out.

@AlienRides 5 лет назад

Speedway V suspension is functional I’d say, but the suspension of the 10X is like a bouncy trampoline. I find it a lot of fun, but maybe not as suited for high speeds as the speedway suspension.
