Commuting E-Scooters

An off-road electric scooter will give you the thrill of your life. Have you ever experienced that pure, childlike rush of adrenaline, where you feel your worries drain away and live only in the moment of excitement? If not, an electric off-road scooter might be something you should try.
If you want to hit the mountains or forests, and rip it up (with safety gear on of course) then any of the iX versions is what we recommend.
You can still use them for everyday things like popping down to the shopping mall and so on. But to see it come alive, you need to tackle obstacles that look near impossible on an electric scooter.

Some quick tips to enhance your riding safety include:
1. Be prepared before the first ride. We strongly advise thoroughly learning e-scooter safety procedures and practices such as speed control, lane changing, and the safety mechanism on your e-scooter before riding, especially before your first ride if it is your first time riding an e-scooter.
2. Wear protective gear. The most common top speeds of electric scooters range from 15 mph to 20 mph, and iHoverboard e-scooters go as fast as 28 mph. Wearing protective gear on every single ride such as a helmet and elbow pads is the easiest and the most effective way to improve riding safety. Some electric scooters have a good waterproof performance, the i9 Series and iX Series are IPX4 rated, however, we do not recommend riding in the snow or rain for your safety and to prolong the life of the product.
The regulations of street legal electric scooters vary in different area. High-speed roads are off-limits for e-scooters, and it’s not allowed either to ride alongside pedestrians in some area. We recommend riding fast electric scooters with protective gear such as a helmet for your safety regardless of the electric scooter regulations.
