The Decent One Max is a, well, decent option for those looking for an electric scooter. It offers a long range of 20 miles and a high top speed of 18.6mph. It's also pretty reasonably priced. The killer feature here is the removable battery, which makes recharging a dream. Want to extend your range? Can't get your scooter near a plug? Unlike the majority of competitors, you can remove the battery from a Decent One scooter in seconds, with no tools. It’s important to make clear at this point that electric scooters are classified as Personal Light Electric Vehicles (PLEVs) in the UK and therefore illegal to ride unless you’re on private land with the landowner’s permission. The IP54 rating makes them suitable for year-round use. At 15kg , the Decent One Max is light enough to be carried up stairs. It can be folded down in seconds, carried in one hand and is compact enough to be stowed under a train seat, or in the boot of a small car. Decent Performance
The Decent One Max feels stable going at speed. Its 10-inch vacuum-sealed tires prove sturdy enough to go over kerbs and other small obstacles without any clunks, though bad or dirt roads significantly reduce its top speed. They still perform much better than the smaller 8-inch tyres found on some rivals. Decent One Max electric scooter review: Battery life Please note some larger products are delivered to kerb-side (the street outside your home), it is at the drivers discretion if they can deliver the item to another location on the property. Is it the best e-scooter you can buy? It’s a solid choice, but a few other scooters edge it for me – although it totally depends on the features you find most useful and where you’re planning on riding. Even though it has lower range, the Pure Air is a better option overall because of its app capability, more powerful motor and ability to carry heavier loads. It takes about six hours to recharge the battery – either in-scooter or slid out of its hatch – using a bulky power supply box, which uses a kettle lead to attach to the mains and an old laptop-style attachment to power up the battery. A short press on the function button – just above the throttle – toggles between three gears; beginner, normal and sports, which control what your top speed can reach. In reality, you're going to want to be in Sport the entire ride.All the while an LED display between the handlebars lets you know exactly what’s going on; your speed in either mph or kmh, your battery level in 20% increments (though an idea of the remaining maximum distance possible would be better), your speed setting, and whether there’s a fault. The Decent One electric scooter replaces the original Decent X7 (which was itself a variant on the Turboant X7). The company behind the Decents has been wholesaling other brands for years but felt that the proliferation of the Xiaomis (and the unfair practices employed by some stores selling them) meant they needed a new option. But how does the Decent One compare to other scooters in the price range? It is generally priced about the same as a Xiaomi Essential (though Xiaomi stopped producing the Essential in 2022). As with many models, the brake lever with attached bell is on the left of the handlebar and the thumb throttle accelerator to the right. The LED display sits in the middle of the stem, displaying your current speed, riding mode and how much battery life is remaining. Large Bulky Items e.g. Ovens, fridges and ceramic sinks delivered next day and benefit from a delivery time slot.

The Decent One Max is a robust, no-nonsense electric scooter with a quick-release battery and cruise control
Ride in comfort– This outstanding electric scooter is fitted with huge 10-inch diameter pneumatic tyres that soak up bumps and take the fatigue out of longer rides. The Decent One is powerful, sleek and capable e-scooter. It offers the rider an extremely smooth ride thanks to it’s large 10" wheels and also features a removable battery allowing you to change the battery in seconds. Of course, the big plus point here is the removable battery. In practice is a removable battery that useful? For convenience, it’s definitely handy to have a removable battery for easily recharging it at, say, a workstation in an office – instead of having to bring the Decent One Max physically into the office (ditto at home). It’s also far more environmentally friendly to replace the battery when it’s spent – or, more likely, to fit a newer, larger-capacity version – rather than junk the entire scooter. Decent One Max electric scooter review: Verdict We always recommend wearing a helmet when riding an e-scooter; and the majority of e-scooter accidents happen within the first few rides, so be careful if you are a beginner. At time of writing, e-scooters are still not legal on public roads in the UK.
Want a smoother, more stable ride? When it comes to tyre size, Decent believe that bigger is better. The One and One Max are fitted with huge 10-inch diameter pneumatic tyres that soak up bumps and take the fatigue out of longer rides. Out of the box not much needs doing to the Decent One Max; it’s simple fixing ring and folding lever makes it a 10-second job to set up and collapse it for storage under a desk or on a train, though you will need a small hex key/Allen wrench to tighten the brake and you'll need to screw on the handlebars. It's IP54-rated, so waterproof unless it gets submerged, and can easily take riders (and any bags you might be carrying) weighing up to 100kg. From a short push off, the One will hit 15.5mph in ’sport’ mode and climb a 15 degree incline all thanks to its torquey 350w front hub motor. Tap the menu button and switch to Standard or Eco drive modes, offering lower top speeds ideal for cruising to maximise that 15 mile per-battery range.The Decent One feels much like those first Segway-Ninebot electric scooters (which flooded the streets of Europe in 2019 when rental companies used them) but is perhaps slightly smoother because of the larger (10 inch) tyres. It's really difficult to tell just by riding them. The Decent One Max’s standard battery, located in the column, is rated at 10Ah and is enough to fuel journeys of around 20 miles / 32 km. It can be carried up the stairs/through a train station, though at 15kg don’t plan on doing that without any effort at all. That weight is on par with other electric scooters that offer a similar range and performance, but as most of the weight is in the handle, we find it easier to carry. Scottish Highlands & Islands postcodes: AB, FK, HS, IV, KA, KW, PA, PH, ZE, LL58-LL78, IM, TR, PO30-41 The Decent One Max is very easy to set up. After unfolding and securing the steering stem into its upright position, it’s a simple case of sliding the brake lever on to the left handle stem before tightening with the Allen key provided and then screwing the grips in place.
