5.0 out of 5 stars Pretty great entry scooter.

The response time is amazing, and the features are luxurious! The setup was a total breeze, taking just a few minutes. Once set up, it was larger than I was expecting, but in a good way. It is so well built and has the coolest features including even a little bell which I used on a ride last night and it was perfect. The foot surface is so large that we can (safely) take our kiddos for short little rides. Guests who have tried it have all been impressed at the response time, and how quickly and smoothly it ramp up to speed. Be safe and strap on a helmet because this scooter is fast. I am excited to take it on longer rides and get some good milage out of it.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great Scooter with Great Support
Review:I purchased this scooter back in August as a way to get around campus. The scooter works great and its range and speed make it a perfect way to get around. Being able to fold it to carry inside to charge makes it absolutely amazing to use. The range is around 7 miles on a hilly campus but it handles both the terrain and the weather well. The scooter easily reaches its max speed of 15.5 MPH (it does drop when going up a hill or when low on power). My commute is around 3 miles (one-way) and to be able to take the scooter that distance at a relatively fast speed, combined with its lightweight design and ease of use make it a really great purchase.Product Support:A few months in my scooter experienced an issue where it would not charge when plugged into the adapter. The battery simply was not receiving a charge. Luckily, the scooter comes with a 2 year warranty for parts. I contacted support, and Kayla from the support team responded promptly and helped me troubleshoot the issue. Within a few days, they had already shipped a new battery to me to replace. After replacing the battery, my scooter went back to working as normal. This was one of the best support experiences I've had with a product and they helped me to resolve the issue completely.Overall:A great product for commutes around 7 miles with great product support. The scooter has a relatively fast speed (averages ~12 MPH on a hilly campus). It charges within 6 hours and is light enough to carry inside to charge. It is very light to carry and is very easy to use. It is being sold at a great asking price and is a great value for your money.
5.0 out of 5 stars Very satisfied (with one slight modification)
I haven't spent much time riding this scooter yet but I am enjoying every minute of it so far. I've ridden Bird/Lime rental scooters before so I have something to compare from as far as performance goes. Overall, the main advantages with the rental scooters are slightly better power and range, but at the cost of being heavier, not to mention that you never really know what condition the scooter will be in before riding; the battery level, brakes, other adjustments may be less than ideal since these things are getting a lot of use and bearing the elements outside. I can see why people like these because it is a low commitment option compared to having your own scooter (although over time it's obviously cheaper to have you own). Personally, I much prefer having my own, where I can maintain it myself and always know it's ready to go when I am. That being said, just like any machine (even bicycles) there is some self maintenance that is unavoidable.Performance: ( I am a 160 pound rider)On my last ride I went about 5 miles through a hilly college campus with lots of elevation change, starting from a full charge. The scooter performed well with good acceleration and only struggled on the steeper hills (not sure what angle the hill was, but it's difficult to walk up these hills for a long period of time). The brakes worked great as well and I always felt like I was in control (see suggestions below). When I returned I still had 3 out of 4 bars, even though I suspect that it may be approaching 2 bars (see cons below). The handling was nimble enough to move around other pedestrians with ease, and yet still sturdy at higher speeds. I did not get a reliable top speed measurement since I wasn't able to find a stretch of flat road that was long enough, but even so, I reaching about 16 mph easily without full throttle. (rider weight, hill angle, and battery level will be the main deciding factors for top speed)Pros:-Great performance/quality for the price-Sturdy construction, without being too heavy-Simple/ergonomic designCons:-Battery gauge could have more bars to help show battery level more accurately. *It will also dip down temporarily while going up steep hills and then back up once you get to level ground. This is normal! Every battery powered device will do this when there is a high demand for electricity. You are fighting gravity going up hills which takes a lot of power depending on your weight.-Throttle is very sensitive, which makes it hard to engage the cruise control. To enable cruise control, hold a steady (very steady) speed for a few seconds and then you will be able to remove your hand from the throttle while it maintains that speed. To disengage, bump the throttle and it will immediately turn off. (I did not know about this feature before I got this scooter but it is very nice to have)Suggestions:-This scooter comes with a "safety pin" which screws into the scooter (near the red latch which folds up the scooter). I would definitely use this pin, especially if you are going on a long and/or bumpy ride. It's not technically necessary, but it gives me piece of mind knowing there's an extra solid piece of steel keeping the scooter from folding up when I don't want it to. The only problem is that it's annoying to have to do frequently. The next design should have a quick-release safety pin.-The first thing I did when I realized that the magnetic brake and disk brake were controlled by the same brake handle was add another brake handle on the other side next to the throttle (see picture) so that I could control them separately (like the version 1). I just used a standard bicycle brake handle and it worked like a charm. They probably went with a simpler design like this to make it more ergonomic/easier for the rider, but I like having the option to use either brake independently or together. As a side note, the magnetic brake works great overall and provides good stopping power, but works less and less as you slow down. This is why I typically only use the disk brake at lower speeds and when I need to come to a complete stop.***Only do this if you are comfortable/competent with making such modifications and know that your safety is your own responsibility (not mine).Clarifications: (almost lost one star for this)-One thing that annoyed me was the implication that there was a gearing system included with this scooter and that "gear" 1 would climb hills better while "gear" 2 would be better for top speed. I COULD BE WRONG, but I'm preeettty sure(99.99%) that this is B.S. and the 1 and 2 refer to an electronic power limiter. Don't get me wrong, I think this is a great feature to be able to bump it down to 1 for someone who is learning and/or a young rider, but let's call it what it is and not be misleading. I do not plan on opening it up to confirm this, but I have tried going into "gear" 1 to go up hills better and have noticed that "gear" 2 is better for both hill climbing and top speed.*Update 4/1/19: There is a weird resonance vibration that happens at one very specific speed/throttle. It doesn't really bother me, but it is strange to go from almost completely silent to a louder vibrating sound. I think this might just be a thing that happens with variable electric motors, since this also happens with my electric bicycle. I will update again if anything else develops.*Update 4/23/19: I'm still commuting daily on this scooter and enjoying every ride. My tire pressure was getting low so I had to pump them both up. The back one is easy, but the front one is quite difficult to get just right. The tire valve adapter that comes with the scooter works fine, but it is hard to remove it fast enough to not let air out of the tire. I had to practice several times to try and do it as fast as I could and eventually got it.What I would recommend: pump it up above 50 psi ( I did around 60) and then remove the adapter as quickly as you can. It will let some air out and hopefully stop around 50 psi. I gave the back tire a squeeze with my hands after setting it to 50 psi and then compared it to the front to make sure it was close enough.This scooter definitely rides different depending on tire pressure. I can go faster with normal pressure, but also feel more bumps. Lower pressure will give you a smoother ride, but limit your speed (and range). I would check this at least every two weeks, but just know that if you release air for more than a second then you will likely already be too low and need to pump it back up. I can fill up the whole tire in about 5 or so pumps.
5.0 out of 5 stars Good for the money
Good for the moneyI bought 2. 1 came with a broken clip which holds the brake cable and also serves as a latch when folded.Bolo sent a replacement right away and the replacement scooter had a cut brake cable sheath( outer lining). Not sure if Bolo is not checking their returned items or if Gotrax is missing defective scooters. Anyways, I was able to fix the scooter and all is good now.Pros:Works well, smooth and quiet operation.Acceleration is relatively slow compared to rental scooters as I'm sure those have more powerful motors.Top speed is 15mph as advertisedBrakes work very wellLightweight for an adult scooterfolding mechanism is easyCons:Bell sounds cheapwish it had a light on the rearCruise control feature is annoying and can't be turned offIt's great overall for the price
The best commute scooter ever.
(function() { P.when('cr-A', 'ready').execute(function(A) { if(typeof A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel === 'function') { A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel('review_text_read_more', 'Read more of this review', 'Read less of this review'); } }); })(); .review-text-read-more-expander:focus-visible { outline: 2px solid #2162a1; outline-offset: 2px; border-radius: 5px; } It had been a long time that I commuted with a simple bike. Finally found out a green and budget friendly alternative. This has been the most amazing purchase I've ever made. Especially if you want to commute within city. The city I live in is not on a plain, still the scooter easily goes uphill without any problems. Grocery shopping has never been so easy. A great alternative for a car for students who can't afford a car. The built quality is amazing. There are some fancy features which other scooters offer for a little more but aren't practical to be honest. All you need is a powerful motor and a good battery which this scooter has. The LG battery makes a huge difference. The depletion rate is minimum for maximum power. I've personally taken this on bike trails too and the promised range was just achieved easily. I hope it remains the same after a few months of use too. The tires are good quality, traction is good. Suspension would've been great but doesn't make a huge difference still. Hat's off the the company for make it a hardware beast for the price range. Would suggest everyone to get one, for use or just for fun. You won't regret rge purchase. It looks cool aswell.
Speed
Hey this thing is just perfect.. i mean next week in srarting uber eats...woow man the only thing i can't figure out the speed sometimes i can fo up to 13km ps sometimes 9.5 help?
buy one if you under 200lbs
Love these things for the price. We live in a busy downtown city. Bought for the kids to tour around on during the crisis to help keep they're sanity. They're amazing. Imm 220 lbs. Right at the top of the weight limit. I can make it maybe 10km on a full charge! Amazing! Me and the wife will sometimes take off on them too. Lots of fun. Easy to use. Good quality, amazing quality for the price!Wish they had more power and battery for me being a bigger dude. The wife and kids can make it pretty far. Id say they can easily get 20kms.I've ordered an iMotion L9 for myself at it has a massive battery, bigger tires and very sturdy for me as I'm topping the weight limit on these and I will soon grab one more of these for the wife so we all have one. An absolutely fun time!Awesome buy!
A good buy!
A quiet, smooth ride. Breaks are a little dodgy, so steep downhills should be handled with respect ;)
Nice bang for the buck!
Its a nice entry level scooter, everyone will be pleased with it, i am 6'3" 200lbs and it rides like a breeze, for that price you cannot go wrong!
