Easy to use
Push the rear fender down and pull up on the stem until it clicks into place and you are ready to go - bar charging the batteries. The accelerator is on the right hand side of the handlebars and the brake on the left.
Charging can take up to 7 hours and give you a range of around 28 miles / 45km. Simple connect the supplied charger to the battery on the stem. There is even an over charging protection circuit built in.
The scooter has three speed settings, Eco, Standard and Sport. We recommend leaving it in Standard as Eco is a little too slow and Sport can be a little scary.
APP
there is an app you can use to connect to the scooter, this can control the under deck led lights and cruise control.
Screen
The screen shows you the battery life, speed and the riding mode. Easy to read and looks nice and sleek on the handlebars.
The bottom line is this is a great scooter. if you are looking to buy electric scooter make sure you are checking the battery / motor size, range etc... This particular scooter is very usable, can cope well with hills and carry a substantial weight where cheaper alternatives will let you down.
