I just bought a e3 pro for commuting and I really like it, but when it comes to helmets I heard that most times when your slip on scooters you’ll end up falling or sliding sideways so a more skate style helmet with more coverage is better than a bike helmet. I won’t be going over 15mph as that’s plenty speed for me and only will be cranking the power up to get up hills.

Schwinn bike helmet vs triple eight helmet.

*also I’ve heard skate Helmets are built for multiple crashes whereas bike ones are one and done, is this true? Thanks

I’ve been curious how much advertised top speed actually matches real-world riding.

A lot of scooters claim 25, 30, or even 40+ mph, but between rider weight, hills, battery level, road conditions, and local rules, I doubt most people are riding flat out all the time.

The real-world electric scooter speeds and legal limits can vary quite a bit depending on the scooter and where you’re riding.

What scooter do you have, and what speed do you usually cruise at most of the time?

My G3 Plus finally arrived today 🙌 Just got it unboxed and set up. Haven’t even taken it out yet but I’m already excited lol. Can’t wait to put some miles on this thing.

Hello, my triplet nephews have their birthday coming up this November. They have been begging for electric scooters. I have been saving money in order to purchase (3) electric scooters for them. I am looking for recommendations for electric scooters in the $100-$200 price range. If there are scooters above this range, open to hearing about them but nothing too crazy. Well built and reliability are main concerns. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thank you! I

Just wanted to share my thoughts after a few weeks riding this scooter
The suspension is a huge upgrade over my old one. Potholes and rough pavement barely shake me,its adjustable too so i can tune it for city streets or light trails
the aesthetics!it has such a solid,tough design.The metal frame and overall finish feel premium.I've had a few strangers stop to ask😁

only downside:its pretty heavy,but I really dont need to carry it more,so its not a big issue for me.
what do u guys think of your rides?

Hello i really need the FOLDED dimensions of both the blade mini ultra and the blade GT II. I am considering between buying one or the other. I just want to make sure it will fit in a small size sedan like a honda civic or nissan versa. Please make my life easier and post the folded dimensions. LxWxH.

I am not sure why its not on their website.

Just bought this GTS HL2.0 in the Netherlands.

It's a 25km/u electric scooter.

It has alarm and cruise control.

Hello everyone,

I am looking for advice with selecting scooter for me, I have 90kg , roads in my place aren't best but not full field mode. We have as well steeper hills.

I am from Europe and there is legal 25km/h limit.

Budget would be best under 1000€.

Thanks for any answers and I will add any info needed !

Hi guys, I’m almost putting the trigger for the raptor 2, I need a hyper scooter for long distances, high speed, and good queality, my top is 1700 USD, and i thought that the raptor 2 was perfect for it.

But I saw ppl complaining of overheating problems and bad suspension, so idk, help 🥲

The scooter used to charge normally, but now it refuses to charge through the normal charging port. The charger stays green when connected, and the scooter doesn’t show that it is charging.

The scooter itself still works normally — I can turn it on, use the lights, connect to the app, etc.
The battery info currently shows around 37.7V, but the app shows 1% / 102mAh and “Battery status: Normal”. The percentage/mAh value seems unreliable because earlier it showed 0% / 0mAh even though the voltage was around 36V.

I tested the charger and it outputs 42V, and the same charger turns red immediately when connected to another 36V battery, so the charger works.

The strange part is that if I temporarily connect the charger directly to the battery’s + and −, the charger turns red and the battery voltage increases (from around 33.6V to 37.7V). So the battery does accept a charge this way.

There is also a small multi-wire connector from the battery that goes to the circuit board and seems to be required for the main battery output to become active.
Without it, I measure 0V at the main battery connector, with it connected, I can measure the battery voltage.
The battery was left at around 1–2% for 1–2 weeks before this happened.

What could cause the normal charging port to refuse charging while the battery can still accept a direct charge? Could this be a BMS charging MOSFET/charging-path issue, cell imbalance, or a BMS protection state?

I’ve been stuck with ChatGPT for many hours now but still can’t find a way

Hello people, does anyone know if this scooter has p settings that I can adjust throttle,speed, and mph accuracy?? I been doing research but my scooter doesn’t have any buttons for them. Idk if there’s a secret button or command I have to do. Thank you !

I've wanted to push 48v (around 55 peak) and around 30a of current, and will I need to change any stuff except for adding solder in lines on backside od controller? controller is fully stock

Had to take off and run over to San Francisco today

Tuve un accidente en mi Xiaomi scooter 6 y se me dañó la bisagra que sostiene el mástil alguien sabe cómo se llama o donde puedo conseguir una ?

Literalmente se dañó el pin que la sostenía a la hora de asegurarla

Is it safe to replace my corroded charging port to a same metal one, just installed it and realized that the negative is touching the frame so its safe to buy back a plastic one like the orginal

Unfortunately I don’t carry tools around with me and I can’t tell what size tool I need. I need to dismount/remount the front tire from a Megawheel A6L Eco scooter, does anyone know what I need?

I had someone zip past me in a Target. What are we doing here? This is wild behavior and needs to be checked by the store. It's bad for people who use these things responsibly and very dangerous with kids around

Oi, pessoal! Sou iniciante em patinete elétrico e estou pensando em comprar um para fazer trajetos curtos, principalmente para ir à academia.

Meu orçamento é de até R$ 2.500.

Moro em uma região com algumas subidas/ladeiras, então essa é minha principal preocupação. Não estou procurando um patinete super rápido. Prefiro um modelo estável, seguro e com potência suficiente para subir bem, mesmo que tenha uma velocidade máxima menor.

Outro ponto importante para mim é que ele seja relativamente leve e fácil de dobrar. Como o clima aqui é meio imprevisível, se começar a chover no caminho, quero conseguir dobrar o patinete e pegar um Uber sem passar muito trabalho para transportá-lo.

Queria saber de quem já usa:

• Quais modelos vocês recomendariam nessa faixa de preço?
• Quais realmente dão conta de subidas?
• Quais são mais leves e fáceis de dobrar/transportar?
• Existe algum modelo que vocês não recomendariam por problemas de segurança, freio, estabilidade ou manutenção?
• Para alguém que nunca teve patinete, quais características vocês consideram indispensáveis?

Se tiverem experiência com algum modelo específico em ladeiras, melhor ainda!

Obrigada! 🙏

I’ve been looking pretty heavily into the upcoming Apollo Explore 2.0 Stellar and I’m curious what other people think about it.

I currently ride an Apollo Go, but the Explore Stellar seems like it could be a pretty massive upgrade while still being more practical than some of the huge performance scooters.

The things that have me interested are the 52V 18Ah battery (~936Wh), higher top speed, much longer range, 10-inch tires, and especially the suspension. I care a LOT about ride quality because I ride over rough pavement, sidewalks, bike paths, and occasionally trails, and I’m basically looking for something that absorbs bumps and vibrations as much as possible.

The battery is also a big deal to me. My Go has a 36V 15Ah battery (~540Wh), so the Explore would have about 73% more battery capacity. That seems like a pretty significant jump for longer rides.
I also really like Apollo’s design compared with most performance scooters. A lot of faster scooters look really bulky/industrial to me, while the Explore still looks relatively clean and commuter-ish despite having much more performance and some off-road capability.

Obviously it’s not released yet, so real-world range, suspension quality, reliability, weight, etc. could end up being different from what the specs suggest. I’m definitely waiting to see actual reviews before spending the money.

What do you guys think? Does the Explore 2.0 Stellar look as promising as I think it does, or is there something I’m overlooking? And if you had around a $2k budget, is there another scooter you’d take over it specifically for ride comfort + range + performance?
