A policeman was stood right next to me and asked to have a go on mine. He said ride the scooter like you would a bike, with the respect of other road users

Im more amazed by a british guy not using the metric system

Best video on the M365 I've seen. No one seems to talk about how the folding mechanism breaks mostly because of people pulling on the bars backwards when accelerating/ pushing forwards when stopping. Most riders don't know that scooters are ridden like a skateboard and using the handlebars only for balance. Xiaomi should have tested this more and made it stronger. Also, use tire levers if you need to change a flat - small wheel diameter + pneumatic tires = lots of leverage needed (some bicycle tire models are hard to change too).

If someone jumps out in front of you, and you kill then whole riding a scooter going only like 15-20mph, then they already had one foot in heaven my friend....

I'm still waiting for the Stig's track time.

I have my m365 for a month now. I have done 230kms so far. Last night i had a puncture on the rear tire. I know it's going to be hard to fix but the joy i am getting out of this thing is so worth the troubles. Sadly i am moving to Sydney at the end of June and can't take it there. I am really really sad to leave it behind. Anyway, also yesterday i saw a notice on mi home page about Xiaomi recalling some m365s having an issue with the folding mechanism(it's breaking on the move). You can enter your serial number there to see if yours is one of the affected ones. Luckily mine is ok. Hope yours will be too guys. Thanks for the review Stu!

I have my M365 since December and I’ve driven 350km. I have had 2 issues.
1: Rear light - connector broke ofd
2: Front tire - replaced with airless pure rubber

The reason why they the government won't make these scooters road legal along with other electric vehicles is quite simple.
They want you to keep buying petrol.
The Eco friendly progressive thought only goes so far, but when it threatens Taxation and Duty, you can stuff your scooters where the sun don't shine.
They aren't interested in saving the environment.
I've been all over Europe, in most cities you can hire these scooters for peanuts and off you go.
Like Jeremy MK2 said, the laws date back to Viking days and they are not in any great hurry to review the relevance of such laws.

Where do you keep your other set of hands?

Thanks for your review mate, I appreciate your content and I agree with most of what you said about the scooter. I got mine 4 months ago and since then I got two flats on both front and rear tires :(. I'm now looking at solid tires and am somehow terrified about how hard they fit. A personal tip for this scooter is to grease the handlebars folding system with some quality water resistant grease. Makes a difference from heaven to earth on the folding effort and protects the folding mechanism.

this guy deserves a tv show lol. amazingly produced

[WordlessFormula]

Man! I never thought I could be entertained by a scooter review, awesome review!

[biseruk]

You belong to the audience now mate, such good review, God bless you, looking forward for another good videos!

[MaZe]

100% agree, changing the back tire was the most aggravating thing Ive done in my entire life or at least as far as I can remember. I also blew the one I put on and had to do it again.

[kyriakosliotas]

I am a big fun of ptev's .My m365 has 1000km in 2 years, I put slime in tyres from day one and no panctures so far, recently installed a display from the pro model and custom firmware- highly recommended. The 30km claimed range is actually 20-22 for my 80kg weight. I own an old bike made electric with a hub kit for up to 80km trips, a Xiaomi ninebot mini with 3000km onboard in 3 years (i only changed tyres once and know i have ordered a replacement battery because range is about 60% from the original 20km range) great for short commuting, has smaller footprint and you can drink a coffee with the hands beeing free.
Regards from Greece, keep the good work.

Xiaomi M365 Pro is really good, but it still retains all the flaws and issues from the first model of rear fender breaking and rear light cable damaging from the tire rubbing, folding mechanism loosening and even breaking, very thin cheap tires that get punctured fast, quite bad water resistance and battery shaking with eventually breaking conctacts for quite heavy vibrations. Nontheless fantastic scooter, specially with unlock top speed to 32-35 km/h. It is probably the best scooter for the price, but can not wait for the Segway Ninebot Max which is basically M365 Pro just improved by quite a lot. Would be really nice to see a good review of that thing.
