Inokim OXO Reddit Verdict: Great Frame, Polarizing Throttle

I'm light at about 105 lbs. The rubber suspension barely compresses, so the ride is on the harsh side. Better than no suspension, not by much. This would work better for a heavier rider. So my knees get tired out from bobbing down for bigger bumps. Combined with the small wheels, I'm not willing to go faster than 24-25mph as displayed.

It sounds stolen.

Is that a one-sided fork? Hope that's structurally super strong!!

I have owned both and don't think you can go wrong with either. My personal preference is the Vsett. It is more powerful than my Oxo was and rides a bit more smoothly over rough terrain. The Oxo was a great ride though. I put 2500+ miles on one.

A nearby shop that specializes in the scooter is hard to beat in my opinion.

If it is rideable, it won't last. Avoid this 'deal' as it will likely cost you in the long term. It's had some obvious re-engineering done on it, ghosts in the machine from improvised repairs would be my biggest concern. This is one of those scooters that you will end up spending more time diagnosing and repairing than actually riding.

I agree about the throttle, it's very jerky at low/walking speeds. Because of the kick-start, it will sometimes cut the motor while I'm struggling to finesse it at low speeds. Otherwise I don't mind the kick-start. My kickstand was fine but the cheap-o bell arrived broken.

It uses dated squarewave type controllers which will lock your speed to the throttle input, so it just does full power (even at 0 speed) till it achieves that speed. That means it will react very jerky.

I have OX super and to be honest getting it was one of the biggest mistakes I made. I did so many upgrades for this pile of junk to fix all the issues manufacturer didn't bother to fix. Deck cracked after few months, made new one. Stem wobbles like shit and bolts they used for a folding latch bracket are soft steel ones, I found out about them in a hard way when it folded on me when I was going over 35 km/h.

Pretty sure the 2024 has Inokim branded Nutt hydraulics. They're ok.

'I couldn't care less about your questions' is a no for me. I wouldn't give anything to this person.

You have it in kick start mode — in the P settings you can change that. You should probably get lighter springs for your suspension. I would bug them again for a new kickstand, and a bell you can get for under $10 from most bike shops. Nothing is perfect in this world.

Disabling Kick-to-start sadly requires a controller swap from ASI or Jager. If you use the 'tall' suspension adapters, it becomes plush but is substantially higher off the ground. The throttle control is terrible but there are sine wave controllers with updated displays and throttle.

I built a company based on this scoot. It has its flaws, but I really liked the way it looks, so I decided to upgrade it with my own electronics and fix the existing issues. Since my first ASI BAC installation this is the most popular scooter in Israel. We have insane mod community for this one. I did 120 kmh with insane torque back in a day.

It's a beautiful scooter I used it daily to commute to work. Unlocked mine to 65km, more than enough speed. The only issue is the lock mechanism. I currently have a pipe clamp around mine for added measures.

The single swingarm design scares me. We don't see a lot of Inokim posts or buyers around here but most of what I've heard about them is par for the course. Nothing spectacular, nothing egregious.

I was considering between the same two and finally chose OXO. I liked thumb throttle better than trigger, and some say on Vsett 10+ it's less ergonomic than most to switch between throttle and brake. The thumb throttle on OX(O) actually works like almost a semi-twist throttle too.

I would lean towards the Vsett a lot more. Inokim is a bit overpriced for what you get. I have seen a lot of quality control issues that is honestly unacceptable for such an expensive scooter.

That's an amazing deal, and Inokim has legendary build quality. I can't imagine a better way to spend $1250, as no other scooter in that price range is half as good.

OXO is a wonderful piece. Two of my favorite high end scooters are OXO and Dualtron 3!

You cannot make it accelerate faster unless you change the controller. Acceleration is very limited. Else it's solid.

Accessible service is the single most important factor. Go for it.

Thank you. I was thinking about buying one of these. Your review helped me take this scooter off my list of one I may get in the future.

For being prettied-up generic imports, Inokim scooters are really too expensive. I've seen a few second-hand ones on sale where I live and I always think that their used price is about as much as I'd feel comfortable paying them new.

I have one like this for a few months and I didn't like it either, too heavy, range is not enough, I have to push to start driving, if I could I would return it.

I've had mine for 2 years. Nothing broken. Nothing wrong. I go full speed baby. I even take my OXO up hiking trails that are purely dirt and rock, no pavement. I weight 160. The scooter is good buddy. One of the LEAST complained about scooters around today.

This scooter had serious reliability issues when it was released. I had an Ox and would have got an Oxo had it been better but it seems the design was a poorly upgraded Ox that wasn't as great as its spec promised. I ended up getting a Dualtron Eagle when it was released and that was perfect for the price point and performance I expected.

I have an OXO and while I love its overall handling (it's amazing at going over bumps and feels very stable at any speed) I don't like its initial twitchy acceleration. Once you get up a little speed, the throttle is pretty smooth.

The kick to drive is definitely an oversight. If you're on a steep hill how do you even start? I wonder if there's a way to turn it off, pretty much a deal breaker for me because I ride around pedestrians a lot.

I bought the OXO when Best Buy was having a sale for $999. Loved everything about it except the throttle. The throttle is either full throttle or nothing. Very jerky. Hard to ride at low speeds on mode 3. I sold it just for that one reason. To me it was a deal breaker.

I really like my OXO. Similar specs would be any dual motor scooter with swing-arm suspension and dual 1000w motors, like the Apollo Ghost, Kaabo Mantis and Wolf X, Vsett and many more.

Had one and sold it. Throttle was rough and made it very difficult to ride smoothly at low speeds. I liked the solid feel and power. Brakes were meh, performed ok but just cheap overall and squealed like crazy. Also it took forever to charge on the included charger. But honestly, I probably would have kept it if it wasn't for the dodgy throttle. It's built like a tank and fast.

Inokim build quality is superior to Gotrax. I have both OXO and Ox (upgraded with VESC, Nutt brakes, front light) and they are very solid. The only thing I would wish for is a more powerful motor, they are decent but have limitations.

I found a flaw pretty quickly though: the throttle felt very cheap, and whatever spring they used inside is not very strong. It actually gets stuck about 1/2cm down instead of bouncing back all the way, which could be very dangerous if you think you've released.

I have an OXO and I ordered a Gaciron for it. I also upgraded my brakes to Magura. Bought better handgrips too, as the stock ones slide.

I have 2 OXO and they will easily do burn outs with the off road tires. Kinda scares people when they first get on. Looking for a way to make these less herky jerk on start.

It's my favourite ride. It's a little trickier to carry but I don't fold it ever. I find the throttle to be just fine but I like thumb throttles.

I love my Inokim Quick 4. I couldn't afford the OX or OXO at the time. But the range is pretty good. I would take this step up, and I think they've dropped their prices now.

The lights are completely inadequate and dangerous. They only serve to tick the box that it has lights, they're not good for seeing or being seen.

I'm having a problem with my Inokim OXO. Only the front motor is working. The speedometer has also quit working. It just reads zero when riding.

I've have the same issue now. Rear motor not engaging. No response from the company on warranty.
