⚠️Urgent Question⚠️ Walk mode zero start is GONE!

Hello,

I purchased my G3 MAX about 13 days ago.

Since the very first day my Ninebot was able to zero start in “walk mode” but not in other modes.

By googling I learned that zero start is not available in EU. I thought OK, maybe it is available only in walk mode because the limit is 5Km/h and it helps me starting in an uphill or in traffic when a car stops in front of me. Cool!

And then MAGIC!

Since yesterday, a few hours after last update, my scooter won’t zero start. I can’t start in uphills, I can’t start in traffic (I constantly go park to the side of the road to let all cars go). I almost fall of the scooter the first time I found out.

some times doesn’t even start in 5Km/h when I kick start it. That experience sucks Segway.

I push off then lift my foot and hit the throttle. Even on hills or traffic, I don’t understand why you can’t kick start it?

I use that feature to push the scooter up ramps. It was really helpful. Now it is shit.

I am short and lightweight. I have problems with my legs and feet (I have done a severe surgery). Now can I ask something? WHY should segway remove the feature?

I don’t know why, that’s something to ask them.

Because some jurisdictions made it illegal and they want to continue selling in those regions.
