  1. Almost the same thing I've been through a couple of years ago! My fault, low speed (even too low), no damage... Paying too much attention to people around me. Newbie fault at that time for me. Glad you're OK!
  2. Fair enough. Don't get me wrong - I am not saying that a couple of hours of training before the first ever ride is not impressive.
  3. Not that unusual, is it? I've been practicing about 20-25 minutes a day spread over the five days before I took my first proper ride to work. That way I've avoided the worst bruises and such.
  4. @GrAnd as I said, "known to be dangerous", like i.e. 1.2.7 (?) Not to mention the security breach in all fw versions prior to 1.4.0... (can't find the link right now) The Segway miniPRO scooter has a critical vulnerability. 1.1.7 is surely a popular version or so it seems.. at least among the early adopters. But not the safest one as there is a greater potential risk of being thrown off the minipro and the fact that in case of stepping off it (unintentionally) while moving, the minipro will proceed without rider pretending like nothing happened… On the plus side - It is probably sometimes marginally faster and starting more swiftly from standing still. Not too many pro's for users looking for safe and reliable ride. Latest FW version is safer by giving the user all the important feedback (both audible and tiltback), is easier to maintain cruising speed on, providing better range (lower battery consumption than on 1.1.x and 1.2.x). Remember we are talking about safety and most users reporting here got latest version of firmware on their minipro's.
  5. Ok, but anyway, the minipro's shouldn't be judged just by a single failure, without mentioning the circumstances like firmware version and possible overleaning etc. Owning 3 of them I can stand by them minipros being reliable and safe. Not running them against the beeps and tiltback and not using early versions of firmware known to be dangerous, of course.
  6. @EUCMania Resting in my pocket most of the time. Only getting out when I need to warn somebody about my presence And usually that's goes at around walking speed anyway so no potential problems here.
  7. I've got a couple of very nice and pretty light bikebells in slim version: WOSAWE Mini Bike Bicycle Cycling Bell Aluminum Really like the sound of them! Sits nicely around one finger (when you need it, otherwise in the pocket) and not as protruding as usual bells:
  8. I guess it's just like the V8. You choose a higher speed in the app, get the usual "no responsibility disclaimer", and off you go. No need for the app running on your phone after that.
  9. Was thinking about re-using the existing connector from mini plus. Any volunteers?
  10. If the situation is the same as with mini/minipro's (most probably is) then it should be just a matter of changing the connector on a 120W 63V charger from a minipro?
  11. I do remember that Xiaomi mini's were delivered with a smaller chargers than MiniPro's. Both chargers works on both devices.So you can surely get yourself a biffier charger to get your miniplus charged up to 100%.
  12. It's a carry handle recess so you can grab it But yeah, a smaller phone could fit well in there. Dated design, slippery pedals, 160Wh battery (probably dead by now)... the only good thing is the handle/trolley
