Review: 43 MPH Currus NF electric scooter 

43mph on a tiny wheeled scooter in Cleveland = death by pothole

I’ve been riding this scooter since August 2020. It’s a MONSTER! Not for raw beginners.

Well I won't be trading in my Turbowheel Lightning/Zero10X for this but that is a really nice design and performance to match! At first I didn't really much like the "deconstructed industrial" design with all those flat and squared-off edges, but the more I look at it the more it's growing on me. Definitely a contender on the higher-end scale of things.

Me: Oh shit this is pretty cool I want this Hears price tag: clicks off video

Great Vid Micah. I have this exact scooter (First deliery in Canada). It is a blast to drive but the packaging sucks. Both mud gards were cracked (like your front one) but replaced by the seller. Awesome acceleration and braking power. Silent motors comfortable and good range. Built quality is above my Speedway mini IV Pro by a good margin (also nice machine for the price). You should look in your box, the grip tapes are rolled up and need to be installed by the buyer.

its hard to see why there aren't Way more 30+mph ebikes around for decent prices yet .

Nobody Electric : “Affordable scooter” Price: $3000

2:08 gets a good laugh & the thumbs up. :D Also I would say the rear platform is clearly an anchor due to high acceleration - prevents user from sliding back, basically.

That thing looks pretty cool

Refreshing to see the wearing of correct gear, electric vehicles are coming on leaps and bounds arn't they. As a 60+ person l like to sit my backside on a seat! Thanks.

“It is unlike any other electric scooter I’ve ridden” LAST scooter review Turbowheel lightning Lamo

Scooter main purpose is "replace" walking Use for walking distance trip mainly from / to train station or bus stop So cheap and light is more important than speed 12-15km/hour is enough

This brand was tasked to build the frames for another scooter brand Weped. They pushed Weped to share more info about the battery and motor but they declined. They wanted to build the entire scooter for them. Instead they went on to design and build their own using a similar design as the Weped. I’d recommend if you want a scooter this fast, I’d save and get the “real” thing.

I have a 95hp 1000cc motorcycle I bought for $500... think I'll stick with that :) but it definitely looks well made...

Is it legal in the US to ride these 40 mph just like that? I mean, in the EU the speed limit for these is usually 25 km/h (15.5 mph, treated as a bicycle). Otherwise it will be considered as a moped or even a motorcycle and you'll need a license, registration, insurance...

3000$, 70kms/hr - now you dont not need a car to kill. I like where the progress is heading to

Great urban alternative to a bike. Create a tripod to wheel it around getting on and off a train and you have a winner

Amazing design I never seen before dual motor set up give s powerful drive

around $2,800+ for a "scooter" yeah, I'll pass thanks.

0:34 which one is the right top speed?? 🤔 40mph=64kmh Or 72kmh =45mph

I don’t see how this is even comparable to the Turbo wheel Lightning. It costs twice as much, delivers similar top speed and performance yet weighs more.

Very good scooter

Awesome machine, but all scooters are inefficient as the rider is vertical and has high wind resistance. Some kind of fairing or a seat might help, but something that can be ridden lying down like an electric luge would get the greatest range, as long as you don't become roadkill! I've fallen off a skateboard at 60 mph - I was lucky and just slid to a halt and ended up in a grassy ditch with a couple of grazes and a shredded T shirt. I don't recommend anyone else try to repeat it. 2 years ago I got right hooked on my bike by a taxi and got a broken pelvis after somersaulting the hood and landing on a kerb. I'd definitely recommend hip protection too - a full face helmet isn't enough.

Charge time

How do you film those follow shots? A camera on a big boom ? Nice shots.

very good talk !!! at least !!

im looking for one . good build is important speed not so much distance is important price not so much. any ideas for 2020?

That's pretty sweet.

Terrain looks like Florida :-)

Hi Micah, another interesting vid and wow its amazing how far these things have come in a few short years. However I would urge you to consider now discussing these things from a more appropriate perspective, because with the speeds you are mentioning simple abrasion protection is just a farce, a superficial dressing which will not prevent broken bones, dislocations and severed spinal nerves. Now that these are so fast that they are basically equal to small motorbikes in speed its time to discuss the facts that you should not be doing these speeds on a basic low short platform on two small wheels. I watched your video on converting a motorcycle into a eMotorcycle and its clear to me that you don't have a lot of experience in this area (which is natural considering you came from eBikes). However you should understand that your videos are hugely influential and many who watch them are naieve and easily led. In the interests of saving even one paraplegic or permanent injury I encourage you to now start discussing things like brakes and the reality that these things just can not do a 1G stop I urge any readers to also review the following videos and remember, you're mixing with cars that have actual electronic controlled ABS: Braking distances ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-iW8RACCf4GM.html why it matters is shown here, and while watching that consider the speeds, here is only 25kmh, Micah is showing a scooter that reaches three times that speed ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-UrHwzKaxQlE.html Force (of impact) is equal to weight (you) multiplied by the velocity squared! Please think about this (about me: I have ridden motorcycles for decades (and hundreds of thousands of kilometeres) , I have participated in teaching motorcycle riding safety, as well I own and ride two scooters) Safety is not about the jacket you put on, its about you (the rider). Scoot safe and keep the speeds down (or get an actual motorcycle)

How do you film the scooter from behind????????????

Either the Zero Scorpion x or the Nanrobot 5+

The scooter looks like a homemade project lol

its a water proof?

Is there any point in watching these if I know they'll just be positive?

No regen breaks?

built like a brick shitter! kind of ugly though - it's so ugly it comes around to cool looking from the other side. kind of an art deco look in some places. thanks for bringing us this micah!

Makes me want to sell my boosted rev!

I just purchased one, & it only goes 25mph

Ya i want one.

$3,000 dollars??!!

Do these countersteer like a motorcycle? I can’t imagine they would because the wheels are so small but you never know.

Who would want this thing over a bike? It’s not exactly any easier to carry than an electric bike

Site says 74 mile range

Try the sonic 3200 by black sheep trading super cool scooter

Cool 😀

Who would want to get on a standing scooter that goes 43 mph? NOT ME! I rather get one half that speed and half the weight and cost.

Well it's still not fast enough for my taste cus my scooter does 56mph out of the box. When I'm done mod the scooter, It will be somewhere around 67mph with an 84v 3.4kwh battery.

You know what they say about big girls and scooters, they are fun to ride till your friends see you on them....

Front wheel needs to move forward instead of directly under the handles for better turning stability. This thing looks like if it were lighter should be going a lot faster for all that juice.

I love it but. Platform it too short

Hmmm, one Currus scooter that'll do 40mph+, or seven M365 scooters with updated firmwares to share with my friends that'll do 20mph. Decisions.

There are things that don't help anyone

Hi nice video! If i would ride this in my country (Germany) the police would take it away from me and i would pay a high price to the government. Max speed here for e scooters is 14 mph and u need a license plate here along with an insurance. Lol

Check out the build quality? There's a bunch of exposed wires....

still expansive

Why don't they make cheap fast power wheelchair

3k I can buy a car lol argument will for ever hold lol

It looks sexy but the price makes it fat :/

At $4,000

Too expensive

My LS7 will leave this scooter in the dust

$2,800 for an electric scooter? No thanks. I’ll take my chances with a used car instead for about the same price. More wheels, more safety features, and it’s faster too.

This scooter is going to seriously injure and kill kids. I use to race snocross 90-100+ MPH through narrow treeline trails. It's not the speed. It's the size of the wheels in relationship to the urban terrain.

I fell off a electric scooter going 17-19 miles an hour. Scooter started to wobble and I used my right foot to stop. Snapped my knee and now I need a MRI to determine if I have a torn meniscus or torn mcl. Or are both torn. And I might have more damage too. Long story short. That wasnt even fast by your standards. There should be a law that in order to operate these you need health insurance.

3.6 KW motors and only a 26Ah battery? Not really that impressive..I mean for less than half their asking price you can have T112 with 5.6 KW motors with 42Ah battery.

To much

Waste of my time like if ur gonna make the price that much it better go as fast as a car

The Harley Davidson for millennials xD

cheap electric scooter. I don't think so its almost 4000$

i want a scooter where , we can lock/unlock via smartPHONE . NO ONE WANTS TO CARRY KEYS FOR THEIR SCOOTER while paying that kinda of $$$

$2700 & 80lbs not for me..i live in the city..i might not need it.. have trains & buses. these are for lazy people who can't walk?

40mph scooter is too dangerous.
