I purchased 3 of these scooters 2 years ago. They were buy 2 get 1 free. I sold the third to help pay for the 2. Anyway, I have had them now for two years. We are seasonal campers at a large campground. My daughter rides them regularly with her friends, as do I. I have had very little problems outside of routine maintenance with them. Overall, they were a very good purchase and we look forward to getting to camp and jumping on them. You do need to perform maintenance on them however. They are machines and need to be treated as such. To the people with speed problems, check your chain, shouldnt be too tight. Oil your axles. Clean them regularly. Use common sense and they will last you for awhile. Like I said, two years running, hard use, and I am looking forward to the weekend to ride them. Good luck!Get more detail about X-Treme Scooters X360 Electric Scooter.

Super Turbo 800watt Elite 36v Electric Scooter "Neon Green" Order Now
Everywhere I drive this thing, it gets noticed. People stop and wave and stare in amazement. It's no wonder... this scooter is fast, agile, attractive, and insanely useful.
Forget all the cheaply built Chinese junk out there, this thing is built to last. It is not a toy scooter, it is a personal travel vehicle in its own right, suitable for everything from commuting to errands. With my weight and the high battery capacity, I can do a round trip anywhere within an 8 mile radius, no problem. And it doesn't dribble along at 10 mph, it screams at a good 20 to 25 mph.
It is "just right" for the city dweller in my opinion... small enough to be stored indoors, chained up like a bike, and drive on the sidewalk. But it is large enough and fast enough to be driven like a low end motorcycle. In fact, I know people who are deathly afraid and intimidated by motorcycles, and they LOVE this thing. It can do any sort of travel that would normally be reserved for a bike, segway, or motorcycle.
On the subject of price, if you're going to spend several hundred dollars on a scooter, you might as well spend that 10% or 20% extra and get 50% more for your money. Something that will last and perform when you need it. (And it is insanely FUN to boot!)
The only weakness is water, being electric it cannot be run in rain. I would totally pay for a higher end version of this scooter if it had some water resistance and maybe more features/options. Maybe an ability to shift gears on the fly like a 10 speed bike.
In conclusion, I am a picky, unhappy, miserable shopper and I cannot get over how perfect this thing is for me.Get more detail about Super Turbo 800watt Elite 36v Electric Scooter "Neon Green".

Light-up Scooter Wheels 4-Color-LED's Right now
Purchased these to replace a wheel on a Razor scooter that had seen better days. They are easy to install and look great at dusk on the bike path at the park.
CAVEAT: These are very slippery when they are new and the scooter will not act the same way it did with the old wheels. A painful wipe out lead us to realize that you need to spend some time breaking the wheels in before you do even the simplest of turns. It is a good idea to spend some time riding straight down the driveway (say 20 times or so) until the wheels are a little less slippery.Get more detail about Light-up Scooter Wheels 4-Color-LED's.
Lowest Price Currie eZip 1000 Fusion Electric Scooter
I wanted to use the 1000 electric scooter for short rides from a campground.
It worked fine within one mile.
Then on a second trip, the battery died less than two miles from the camp, even though it was fully charged.
To avoid getting stranded again, I have retested the battery power and find it to be far short of the claimed 12 mile range.
If you are only traveling a few blocks, you might be ok. But do not try distances over two miles.
Hopefully someday a manufacturer will create a reliable electric scooter capable of doing 12 miles.Get more detail about Currie eZip 1000 Fusion Electric Scooter.
