Product Description The rare find in the electric scooter world a machine that all riders can enjoy. Sure, its single motor means that it s not able to compete with the dual motor-powered models when it comes to speed and acceleration. So if you re an adrenaline junkie, you may want to opt for the Apollo Ghost or Mantis Base, for more speed at a similar price. Similarly, the 52 lbs probably isn t the right fit for riders looking for a super-portable model, nor is it made for off-roading. Don t get me wrong, the 10-inch pneumatic tires provide a reasonable level of shock absorption on less even terrain, its just that well-maintained urban roads are where the wheels do their best work. Handlebars Tall, telescopic, and teeming with several of the smartest features the scooter has to offer, the handlebars are one of its main attractions. They are, of course, where you ll find key devices such as your QS-S4 display a small screen providing insights into your speed, riding mode, and distance traveled which also doubles as a finger throttle, for controlling your pace and acceleration. You ll also be able to view your scooter s battery life via a built-in voltmeter and unlock the scooter with a key-start ignition. Build Quality & Durability The frame is made from a lightweight yet extremely durable aluminum alloy. Rubber and reinforced plastic have been used for some of the scooter s more cosmetic details, such as the handgrips and mudguards. Materials aside, its clear that from a design standpoint the has been built to last. The mechanisms securing its folding handlebars and telescopic stem are smooth to operate, while the savvy S-knob controlling the stem s folding feature is super secure. Perhaps my only gripe when it comes to the blueprint is the lack of a grippy rubber or silicone surface covering the deck, which I mentioned earlier. Despite this, the still offers plenty to get excited about when it comes to all-around robustness and reliability. Its water resistance rating of IPX6 is just about the best you ll see on an electric scooter of any class and price point, meaning the Cruiser s very well-placed to weather the storms of everyday use. Weight & Load The weighs 52 lbs, which is about standard for a scooter of its price, specs, and extra features. While this makes the just a little too heavy for me to recommend it whole-heartedly as a commuter scooter, it s still great for zipping you from A to B.
