I bought a solid tire version that I had a ton of fun with.
Very useful, range of 10 or 11 miles, more than enough for getting to the supermarket or picking up stuff.
I got an e-bike a couple days ago for extended range, and a flattire the second day.
solid tires are my favorite, and for me, it's not that bumpy or uncomfortableb like i heard. If my little scooter had 30 miles of range, instead of 10, I 100% would have just kept using that.
may i ask what brand?
hiQis, seems like one of a million generic brands off amazon.
but it looks nice, charges reliably(3 hours), folds down for carrying, turns great and again solid tires make such a huge difference not having to worry about a flat.
definitely going on my list of cargo scooters to consider, thank you very much!
you got it! have a good one!
The one in the image has vacuum tires, are those a problem?
I had to look up vacuum tires!
They certainly sound better than pneumatic, and either pneumatic or vacuum are going to give you a smoother ride and better battery range, but I'll happily give up a few miles of range for never having to change a scooter tire.
