Hiboy Titan: What Real Users Say on Reddit

If budget isn't an issue stay clear of Hiboy and get something with better quality - Hiboy is generally known for their bad quality control and scooters breaking down all the time.

No Hiboy is best at anything. If you want to upgrade, start by switching brands.

It's a rebadged generic Chinese scooter. They can give you pretty good bang for your buck, but only as long as you're aware that the quality control and maintenance departments are both you. Only buy them if you're not scared of a toolbox. If you don't know which side of a screwdriver to hold and don't care to learn, then get a Ninebot or a Niu instead.

It is not decent. It is a piece of shit.

As someone that had the Titan pro and sold it because it wasn't fast enough and the suspension was way too stiff (non adjustable) I would say look at maybe the blade GT, Varla Eagle One, Vsett 10. They all fall under the $2000 price range with average speeds of 40mph plus. And have good riding suspension. I mean don't get me wrong the Titan Pro was fun, but only for a while until it wasn't. And the disc brakes didn't last more than 100 miles for me.

The battery is the main culprit. It will show 100 percent after charging. I will run but with extra load on the motor, it will discharge and suddenly turn off. Probably an imbalance with the battery cells. I am sure you need a new battery.

No way I would pay anywhere near $1400 for that. Just get an Apollo Ghost for $1500 or something else, plenty of posts about good scooters on here.

I don't have the basis for comparison against other comparable models in the 1400-1500 range. I researched before I bought mine and feature-wise, the hiboy was comparable on paper and I had gotten good service from them on the hiboy I already owned so I pulled the trigger. So far, I love the titan pro. Next step is seeing how it holds up to regular use. But light years better than my previous one in the 500 dollar range.

I really like the titan pro. Instructions are limited but easy enough to figure out. 3 speed. 50mph. Go easy on the throttle so as not to grind gears. Longer battery life than stated. Waterproof to a point. Rain riding not recommended in my opinion. Easy ride off road.

My first upgrade was to this, anything you buy after this will be better.

I have had mine for years now and no issues with over heating or fire. Now the battery capacity I can agree with. TBH I got mine for basically free. The wheel was crooked when I got it and filed a claim and they sent me another without me sending the old one back. Only to find out that all I had to do is adjust the handle bar.

May have just saved me. I was about to pull the trigger on a titan pro but I think I'm gonna go with the inokim quick 4. I don't understand battery usage / power / distance quite yet but from what I've seen the hi boys are not accurate.

I've had this scooter for almost a year. I ride it less than a mile several times a week. Since getting it, the front wheel bearing has gone bad, the brakes need adjusting, the seat needed a ton of custom work just to function and now the back tire is flat. Hiboy's response to all these problems is replacement parts, but they should be paying for the labor. I didn't know I was buying a DIY project.

I would not recommend a Hiboy Titan. I used to own one and the tires are terrible. They became punctures so easily from daily use. Hiboy would only send a replacement tire. To change the tire, you would have to disassemble the entire scooter by the way it's designed. I was not able to get that done.

Titan is $1k? In that price range, I'd go for Segway Max G3 instead, which you can get open box on eBay for $800.

They didn't even know what scooter it was until I showed them a picture and then they sent instructions that didn't work with my model. They never really answer my questions. They just answer my questions with a question.

I just got the Hiboy Titan and realized as I put it together that the stem does not lock in the down position when folded. That makes it impossible to carry by the stem. Everything else about the scooter is great, but this is infuriating.

My first scooter was a hiboy s2 and it is not good in any conditions other than dry pavement. It's a great starter scooter run around the city scooter but I have upgraded to the Ausom DT2 pro and it blows the hiboy out of the water. Can't ever go back.

ok damn! piece of shit! i didn't know! what scooter isn't a piece of shit for 290 lbs. nothing over 2k no way

Issue is they lie about battery capacity to get sales hence how they sell such cheap large batteries. They are about half the size and then Amazon fire special moment. These cheap scooters in next few years catching fire as the batteries age.
