Segway Ninebot Max G3: the case against
- Owners report about 14 miles in sport mode against a 50-mile claim
- The screw-retained folding latch draws repeated owner scepticism
- 54.2 lb is a two-hand lift, not a carry
- Priced at the point where dual-motor performance scooters start
Segway GT3: the case against
- 87 lb, and the handlebars do not fold
- No regenerative braking, so nothing is recovered on long descents
- Top speed dropped 6 mph versus the GT1
- Needs a car with a flat boot floor or somewhere at ground level to live
