As the price butcher of balance cars, No. 9 balance car has received a warm response from the market at the beginning of its release. In today's hot cycle sharing, the use of balance cars has also become the choice of many users. Compared with the traditional green travel of bicycle, the speed of balance car is faster, and the smaller and lighter body also makes it possible to carry it with you. Today, we experience this No.9 balance car, which is an upgraded version of the original foot control, equipped with adjustable height foot control and retractable pull rod, bringing a more stable and comfortable experience.

Unpacking

Ordinary model of No. 9 balance car

Foot control upgrade package

The outer packing box of No. 9 balance car is huge. Although it needs to be installed by ourselves, the installation process is very simple. We just need to insert the foot control into the main body (wheel+frame) and screw two screws to complete the installation. The latest foot control upgrade kit is to replace the ordinary foot control of No. 9 balance car with an upgraded foot control, and then replace it with a new wheel disc. The installation method is the same as that of the ordinary foot control.

The new upgraded foot control is equipped with a telescopic handle (16cm), and the height of the foot control can be adjusted according to personal needs (12cm), further improving the comfort of foot control operation.

The upgraded foot control model of No. 9 balance car has a good foot feel. The foot pads are loose and soft. Most shoes have no pressure. Leather shoes, sports shoes and even slippers can be easily controlled. However, it is not recommended that women wear high heels to get on the car, which may cause tripping.

When we first used it, we downloaded the Ninebot App by scanning the code, and connected to the No.9 balance car through Bluetooth to enter the teaching mode. After completing the basic novice tasks (balance, rotation, moving forward, novice 1KM) following the teaching mode, we can begin to really experience the foot control upgrade of this bloody No.9 balance car. According to several colleagues in the office and the author's experience as a beginner, people with a good sense of balance can simply get on their feet in 2-3 minutes, while friends with a poor sense of balance can also find a sense of balance after 10 minutes of learning.

The foot control upgrade of No. 9 balance car can also be remotely controlled in a short distance through the app to achieve the "driverless" function

Travel experience

Although the traffic in Shenzhen is not as congested as that in Beijing, due to the small area of Shenzhen and the fact that Internet and technology companies are basically concentrated in the Nanshan Science Park area, it gives people a sense of nervousness and urgency when it comes to commuting, whether by car, bus or subway. My apartment is 2~3km away from the company. Although there are shared bicycles near the company, there is a large flow of people in the Science Park after work. In addition, the author works late, so I basically have no chance with them. My own bicycle is too heavy, so the balance car has become a new travel option.

The walking speed of normal adult men is about 5km/h, and the walking speed is 6km/h. The maximum speed of the upgraded foot control model of No. 9 balance car can reach 16km/h, which greatly saves the time of commuting to and from work in such a short distance as the author. The foot control of the upgraded version is adjusted to a maximum length of 12cm, and the safety and comfort of the balance car have been further improved.

In the case of small slope (less than 15 °), the foot control upgrade of No. 9 balance car can easily pass. For safety reasons, the speed of the foot control upgrade of No. 9 balance car is limited to 16km/h. When the speed exceeds this speed, the foot control of the foot control upgrade of No. 9 balance car will slowly lean back to remind the user to start the speed limit, and the speed will slowly decline to 16km/h. On flat and straight roads, the foot control upgrade of No. 9 balance car can accelerate to 16km/h more indulgently, without any problem. Small stones and speed bumps have little impact on the balance of the car. It should be noted that the driving speed should be properly reduced at intersections and places where turning is required.

When we first saw the No.9 balance car, its appearance and use led us to misunderstand it as a toy for tasting new things. However, after a week of using it personally, we found that it was a magic tool for short distance travel. It was easy to carry away, which means that it can be used immediately, balanced on the upper foot, and driven for a long time. As a new way of travel, The practicality of the foot control upgrade of No. 9 balance car is far more than its novelty properties, and the price of more than 2000 yuan is more easily accepted by everyone. It is worth buying, whether it is fun to taste or actual needs. As the New Year approaches, many relatives and friends are also shopping for New Year gifts. Instead of giving away some special food and drinks, try another form 。
