bumblebee Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 Lightly used and extremely reliable Ninebot One C+ for sale in Portland, Oregon. Purchased new from Forward CA this spring and has traveled less than 50 miles. It has never bricked up on me, had a battery failure, or anything like that. I did have trouble getting it to charge at one point, and Forward promptly sent me a new charger, which works fine. It has a few dings but nothing outrageous, I kept it pretty well padded while learning. I have added the bracket and trolley handle. I busted one trolley handle in a crash and replaced it with a new trolley handle. This means I also have the new bracket for you if you wish to install that. Additionally, I have a roll of grip tape (not placed on pedals), and a custom made dust cover for it. The cover slips over with a hole for the trolley handle so if you wanted to wheel it around a bit more unobtrusively (say, in a public place where you don't want someone to give you a hard time for having it), you can do that. If you search my posts you can see the cover on the wheel. As you can imagine, I've spent close to $750 on the wheel and accessories (though a bit of that was lost on the broken handle, which I can give you, in case you want to try fixing it). I'd like to get $375 for it but am negotiable, especially if you want to come get it from me. I have all original packaging and could ship to you at my shipping cost (though I don't know what that would be). For some reason the site is not letting me upload pics--keeps signaling they're too big but they're not. Let me know and I will try to send you pics privately if you would like any.

tjcooper Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 QUESTION: with the tolley handle on, can you keep it in the "up" position so that if you are learning to ride and hop off, you can stop the NB from falling over? tjcooper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure I would make that great of a claim for it. I didn't get the trolley handle until I had just about mastered it. I ride around with the handle collapsed (I can't see how you could ride around with it fully up/extended). I'm no expert and periodically have to hop off in a hurry and at those times I do catch it by the handle and then promptly extend the handle so I can wheel it. Honestly I don't think it fell over that much even when I was learning, but that's probably because (1) I'm incredibly cautious and slow about these things and (2) when I had to hop off, I'd run after it and grab it, almost always succeeding in grabbing it before it toppled over. It was actually good exercise at the start! I also did a lot of my practice at a park where I rode on a paved path but would let the wheel run off into the grass if I were having trouble.

steve454 Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 No, the trolley handle is too weak for that. It is only good for walking the NB1 and even then when I try to twist the handle to turn if I twist very hard at all the handle flexes to the point where I am afraid it could break. Also do not ride with it on, if you jump off and the Bot tumbles, several people have said their trolley handle broke even though it wasn't extended.

Hunka Hunka Burning Love Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 You can go to Post Image and upload your photos there. Copy the link, and come back here to click "Insert image from URL", paste the link in, and wa la photos! Any reason you are selling the NB1C+? I thought you just recently got a cover for it. Is it too heavy to carry around? Did you get a different one? BTW I love Oregon! Multnomah Falls is beautiful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't have to be jpg. png, gif, and other formats should work too. The main problem is server disk space with my current hosting plan. Best to use imgur.com (or any other service that you believe will exist forever and free) and just embed back here by pasting the direct image link into the post.

bumblebee Posted July 11, 2016 Author Share Posted July 11, 2016 @HunkaHunkaBurningLove - Great pic of the Falls! I am selling the EU for a couple of reasons--(1) The whole "parking" thing just doesn't fit well with my life and commute for which I hoped to use it. It's way easier to deal with a bike, from this perspective. (2) I feel safer going fast on a bike because there is a better way to brake in a hurry--on the EU, as far as I can tell, you had better just avoid the need to brake in a hurry--but if you're trying to use it to commute in a city of some density, I don't find that safe enough. All in all, it was fun to learn to ride and I do enjoy it, but for me, it's not a practical way to get around; a bike (on good bike paths) seems safer. Where in Canada are you, if you don't mind my asking? -B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunka Hunka Burning Love Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 I'm up here in Calgary, Alberta, and that wasn't my photo. I took one that looks very similar, but it's stashed somewhere away as I visited Oregon years ago. I love the parks down there - so much beautiful scenery! The Columbia River Gorge and Vista House? Oh, and so much fun at Jesse Honeyman State Park with the dune buggies and Hell's Canyon jet boating.... gosh I miss Oregon... EUCs aren't as safe as traveling on a bike. Maybe an e-bike might be a good option to consider for you. Did you check out the foldable one and the new one from Xiaomi coming out soon?

I have never seen anyone her in Portland, I guess they buy a wheel then they sell it before I see them. Lol. @HunkaHunkaBurningLove All the state parks here are just crying for some action and we have alot of mountain bike tracks (still haven't got out to one yet) rivers, lakes and such. But so do you up in Canada. I should do some Portland EU nature footage, I just haven't got any done yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunka Hunka Burning Love Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 Definitely all those long walking trails and pathways would be perfect for EUC trips. You could do a whole Youtube mini-travel show on Oregon alone there's so many different places to check out. I spent a month touring down the Pacific Coast highway from Astoria almost all the way down to Newport, and it was incredible. You guys have it for nature spots down there. I always dream of quitting my day job and go on the road to do a travel show. Ever watch Departures? The cinematography is outstanding... hard to find full episodes online though... maybe check Netflix? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Koffler Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 Is your wheel still for sale? I'm in Seattle and have an Airwheel X8, which I love, an Airwheel X3 (my guest wheel), and wanting to try a Ninebot as a back up. I've been looking around and been finding the E+ for under 500. What is the big difference between the C+ and E+? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is the big difference between the C+ and E+? 2-3km/h top speed difference and 220wh (C+) compared to 320wh (E+) for the battery. I weigh 92kgs and on fairly level ground can still get 10 miles from a charge on my C+. Really well made easy to ride wheels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry I bought it a couple weeks ago here in Portland and have since killed it. I am hoping to bring her back to life soon! Btw @Tim Koffler have you ridden your wheel in a pride parade? It would be so cool if somebody did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
