Xiaomi M365 Front Suspension

Hi,

In today's video - the front suspension for the M365 for only 35 EUR (and also 30 EUR for customs :D ).

As always thanks for all your love, subscribes, comments and likes!

Excellent close-up shots of all the parts - really can see the quality (or lack thereof) of manufacturing! Haven't seen this on many other channels. Keep up the great work.

Thanks, that's answers my questions about the benefits on adding a suspension, ending up not adding it because it's really not as I was expecting it to be, thanks for saving me some cash and I'm sure many other peoples cash :D! Great video and good review

How come so many people are commenting: "Nice video! I'm definitely going to get one!" Did you not watch the video?? It has no suspensions whatsoever. Thanks for the info.

I INSTALLED THE V2 A FEW WEEKS BACK AND IT IS BRILLIANT!
This suspension looks ok but personally I would pass.

[darkart]

That is some lovely chynesium metal, and the welding is something, lets say special.

Wow great thanx for this test. I was also thinking about it but in my opinion the m365 has its advantage on asphalt street. so if you use this suspension on bad road and drive over bumps you tyres will get problem with this.
So i think the rear suspension could have more sense on asphalt street because maybe it damps the weight which is pressing more on the rear tyre. So still maybe, i am not sure. The price benefit also has to be good. at the moment the price is too high for some damping effect in my view.

With solid tyres there is much bigger difference, and must say it improves quite a lot driving expierience ;)

Remember to put the plug back on after each battery charge, to prevent oxidation and ingress of dust and mud and water so as not to short-circuit, or to prevent oxidation of the metal, if the metal oxidizes it will no longer have one hundred contact percent when charging and you will not have amperage in the batteries ie it will not have battery power, prevent any problem!

The suspension is also very stiff to a point where it barely makes a difference. I took the suspension apart and found out that the chrome piece slide into a white nylon. The problem is that the nylon is very tight at the bottom . I had to bore so that the chrome piece slide smoothly. Now it works

I just ordered what I think is the same thing from Amazon. These appear pneumatic, but are they, or do they just have 2 springs inside? Being so cheap, I think there are springs hidden inside which might actually be better because they won't fail from seal leaks. If they are pneumatic, there might be air valves under those black, plastic caps on the tops where you may be able to adjust air pressure to make it softer. If they are only springs, maybe switching springs would help, but who wants to fuss with identifying the included springs and then determining what changes you want and then sourcing it? If these don't work, I'll probably return them and buy the monorim.

Thank you. Really helped me here. Was about to order these.

Can grease NOT oil be fed into the suspension shafts ? Grease wouldn't leak out...

Cant the strength of the springs be adjusted or something?

[miranrexhepi]

I have one but it barely works. Im wondering what to do to make it work better . I rode other scooters without suspension and mine feels the same as them . If you can help thatd be nice

[MariusWM]

Thanks for an honest review. I had seriously considered this because I am bothered by the lack of suspension in my Xiaomi pro. But perhaps this is something Xiaomi should build themselves or perhaps the whole idea of suspension in a scooter is wrong to begin with because the scale is too little.

[benzbordz]

In my comparison and personal observation. A fork suspension is longer play than monorim front suspension.

[paulgovan]

So the consensus seems to be that if you're under 65kg the suspension will work fine because the forks are not forced all the way down as it is for heavy, overweight 70kg-90kg+ riders like the overweight 90kg guy who actually posted this very critical video.
Basically it's clearly designed for slim non-obese Chinese/Asian riders !

I have Monorim V2 in my M365 and just looking at your video I must admit Monorim have much better quality and I really happy that I mounted them on my scooter
