Electric Scooters

And there are lots of other sizes too, such as the huge 40135 (40mm x 135mm)

Some cities allow electric scooters and bikes on trains and subways, but some are strict about preventing this. What is it like in your city?

It seems like this is the ultimate combo to get around any big city these days. You get the best of both worlds - convenient last-mile mobility and traffic-free movement across larger distances.

Looking to get a pet trailer for my electric scooters, but I haven't seen any specifically made for scooters, only bikes.

Will a bike one work for my scooter(s), and if so, will I need any adapters or anything for the hitch? I'd be cautious about messing with the nuts and bolts of the scooter if it requires a very custom solution, but I'm open to it.

My two scooters:

• Kaabo Wolf Warrior 11
• Kaabo Mantis King GT

I’ve had my escooter for about 10 months now and last few days I noticed it really struggles going uphill, it used to be ok and it was doing 18km/h on fully charged battery before, now same hill it’s doing 10km/h… Is the battery covered by warranty? I’ve bought it new in Halfords, I’m going for a free health check today but not sure what to expect…

I know you used to be able to load your custom firmware if the scooter wasn’t running the lates version or something. Is there a new hack that works with the latest firmware?

This scooter features dual 4000 watt motors and can achieve 60+ mph speeds straight and level. But why?

This speed is surely deadly in the event of a crash and it's hard to image it would even be fun to ride at such a speed.

Has micromobility already changed your commuting habits? What about your selection of place to live?

I live in a huge city with gridlocked traffic, and an e-scooter enables selecting (much) cheaper condos further away from the public transportation.

Borrowed my brothers scooter.

Had a blast around Sun River near Bend Or. perfectly sunny day for a 25 mile cruz. All paths and low traffic mid week.

Climbed to the top of Lava Butte Lookout.

So much to explore in this sport. Enjoy!

A new generation of e-scooters with solar panels means never needing to plug in. Is the trade off in weight and size worth the added flexibility?
