How to make your Ninebot Faster!
So how do you do it?
If you're looking to increase the speed of your e-scooter, you have come to the right place.
This method doesn't require physical modifications, potentially saving costs and avoiding complex installations. However, remember that such modifications can affect warranties and may not align with local regulations.
Compatible models:
- Xiaomi 365
- Ninebot G30LP/Max
- Ninebot ES
- Ninebot D38
More models are being added!
IMPORTANT INFO
Before you even start, make sure you have an ANDROID device. The Speed mod application is not available in ios devices
Other considerations are the type of controller that comes with your scooter. For example, the Ninebot G30 model has two different model controllers, the AT32 and the STM32.
For speed modding purposes, the AT32 is better, as its bolt connectors make it unlikely for the wires to overheat and melt together, unlike the STM32. Also keep in mind, that factors like the rider's weight, temperature, charging habits and overall riding style will have varying effects on the scooter, from reduced battery life to possible component overheating.
If you do have the STM32 model, we recommend replacing the stock connectors with MR60 connectors, available here, to avoid overheating issues.
