that transfer from the side walk to the street at 5:06 is exactly one of the reasons people hate these kinds of things. Just cut off that subaru, who should have had no reason to expect someone to zip out in front like that. gonna ride on the road like a car, gotta enter it like one, not like a kid chasing a loose ball
crueldragon I agree that it was a pretty risky maneuver in hindsight. Use this as a learning opportunity people.
Real talk tho, this was the last convincing I needed to reserve one myself
That guy was riding like a reckless butthole though. Not representative everyone else.
Right on. ,dragon!
DAnger Mouse fuck no i hope not at least I get it in cities but not in the rest of the country please just dont be a total jerk off on your scooter
Riding like that. Someone opens their car door, and your toast, at best
In Montreal you open your door like that on someone and hurt him, you get a MA$$$$$IVE ticket! The driver is responsible to look and to make sure his passenger look before exiting the car.
Electric scooters are fun and everything but once they brake down your screwed. Yah, Z10 and speedway scooters are faster and have more range , but the parts are hard to find and made of cheaper material.
I’d buy from a reliable company with great costumer service, which is what boosted tends to promote . That’s my opinion.
Good points. Durability and maintenance should be key in any scooter decisions or purchase for sure. No doubt Boosted will have the parts and customer service to back their scooters up.
That's how I like a review.. and the third person view of the scooter and rider is cool and far more informative than fpv.. cheers..😊
Pete fpv yeah, it’s unique footage for sure. Cool drone footage btw.
Your reviews need some work. If you are going to be reviewing products, speak slower so people can understand you. Maybe it's nerves . As far as the review goes, I think you missed the point entirely regarding the market segment Boosted is going after. Granted you are young, and are more concerned about going fast, riding in places you shouldn't like through parks where there are lots of people and dogs around, and cutting off vehicle traffic like you did with the guy in the blue Subaru. People like you are the reason why cities are now regulating the hell these scooters. I feel boosted really did their homework when it came to developing this scooter. It's an excellent alternative means of transportation when ridden responsibly. In fact, I've ordered one myself to get through L.A. traffic. I'm a first responder by profession, and I can't tell you how many accidents I've responded to with involving these scooters, but more often than not, it's the person on the scooter either riding irresponsibly, or the person on the scooter not wearing the proper protective equipment. Look, 24 mph is plenty fast enough to negotiate city streets. Any faster would probably lead to many more accidents because of reaction times and the like.
I was filming, not riding obviously, but I don't disagree with your comment 😉 Thanks for your feedback and I hope you enjoy your scooter.
Great video man. Love the FPV footage. What a great day to be out zipping around.
Thanks, always fun to film a little scooter FPV run.
The build quality seems pretty solid! You mentioned being innovative when it came to braking options, it's kind of funny that an company founded on Esk8 hasn't put much innovation into their electric boards. Top notch video bro, I'd love if you could film me skating one day. These ride along videos are so fun to watch.
Yeah, very curious as to what they have planned for esk8, hopefully something awesome, lots of people love the boosted brand.
I know that they are different philosophies but I bought a full on 500cc motorcycle for less than the price of one of these scooters.Its kinds of hard to justify one of these for me as of now. Once they dip to around 800 bucks Im in
Samuel Dobrow nothing wrong with that at all, whatever helps you get around to where you need to go, or have fun on. We all want the prices to come down, and they should with time.
@@AlienRides Yeah, I'm just complaining in the comments. Electric mobility does look like fun though
Blowing through stops signs, racing ahead of moving cars at intersections, lots of fun for everyone( including future cadavers).
Keeping coroners employed since 2019.
Rides, that comment dissects my funny bone!😂
Thanks for the video! You are one of the few that I completely trust since you know what it is like to ride a hyper scooter and what is available in the market. There are very few that really know the full breadth of what is out there in the e-scooter world. I like the Rev but I still would strongly prefer my Ecoreco L5+ as someone that has to do about 16 miles each day on the scooter and also still wants portability. I can easily store my scooter in front of me on BART and also inside my gym locker which is something you can't do with the Rev because the handlebars don't fold. The lack of suspension will also be a problem over time. The dual suspension setup on the L5+ is very good for terrain I have to handle each day. I can even go off-roading a bit with the L5+ because it has the power and suspension. I also don't like pneumatic tires as I have had to deal with fixing flats on some of my other scooters that I don't ride any longer. For $1600 you are around the price of some hyper scooters which would blow away the Rev in performance. It is a good thing Boosted has joined the market. Hopefully it will bring more people into the PEV world.
Robert Fontanosa you said it perfectly! It is a polished machine and will hopefully get more people involved with electric vehicles. Sounds like you have found the perfect scooter for your use case, folding to get it into a gym locker is awesome!
@@AlienRides It is the perfect mix of power and portability. I still have to carry it several flight of stairs going in and out of the BART stations and getting up and down at work and at the gym. You wouldn't want to be carrying the Rev or any of the hyper scooters in an elevator. The portability, suspension, lack of flats and 25mph sustained with at least 18 miles range at full speed is hard to beat. The Falcon scooters would be worth considering but the pneumatic tires are a deal breaker. You will get a flat if you put the miles on and fixing the flat is a pain to do when you are trying to get to work. The L5+ has been my biggest surprise as I didn't expect to be so good after owning the M3 and M5 Ecoreco scooters. I have almost 1000 miles on it after owning it for a couple months and it has been bulletproof. One of these days I would love to get a hyper scooter just to get that speed rush.
Robert Fontanosa awesome. If you can come out to our group rides on Saturdays at the exploratorium. You can definitely test out one of the crazy scooters that we have there.
@@AlienRides What time do you guys ride on Saturdays? I live in SOMA so I am close. I even fly some of my micro quads at the arrow you always have in your videos. Hopefully I will have a free Saturday I can scoot over.
Nice, I’m out every Saturday, typically meet at 1:00 at the side of the exploratorium. www.baesk8.club has more info.
All that footage was crazy smooth. You on a EUC chasing wing?
Tony Vano yup, MSuperX is still the best film vehicle! Handheld GoPro with no gimbal too. It’s not always perfect, but I’m pretty happy with how it turns out generally.
Only shot this for a few minutes at a test event, but got some pretty fun footage. Check out the FPV footage at 6:04.
There are no bad scooter riders on the street - THEY ARE DEAD!
Great footage! A few things I noticed, looked like only rear brakes (might account for all the skidding) I do like the thumb dial accelerator over dualtron's but the platform seems to sit low to the ground prone to scrapes. Def would get the 10x or Speedway 5 over this.
Yeah, there was a single lever for the rear brakes, and if you’re aggressive with it, as this rider was, the rear brakes will lock up and skid a bit.
How would you compare the ride quality and acceleration of your Dualtron? Also what dualtron do you have? I'm interested in the Raptor and the Spider but I'm also interested in the Boosted Rev
Russell Jew the boosted rev is a well built machine, but it can’t compare to the power and range of Dualtrons. If you’re looking for a stylish and well-built, but slow scooter, the rev could be for you. If you can afford a Spider though, that’s my recommendation. It’s lightweight and powerful.
I have the same helmet. TSG Pass. Check out the Uscooters Booster V with the 10.5 AH battery. it's well built and I get about 30 mph going downhill. it will make it up any hill on a full charge. Weighs much much less than this at about 27 pounds. Got it for just under a grand from a domestic distributor. I swapped out the solid rubber rear wheel for an 8" air tube wheel on Amazon and filled it with some Stans No Tubes instead of Slime. Great lightweight scooter.
I like this scooter because it is the luxury model for scooters. The range could be better on it, but they do claim it's weatherproof which is definitely needed if you want a serious commuting device. Unfortunately at the price tag of $1,600 there is just too many better options to go with that don't even cost as much.
It’s well built, but can only go 5-6 miles, much better options out there like the 10X or kaabo mantis.
Wow there’s a lot of people around that area lol must me hard to weave in an out all the time.
Thanks for review! Btw this scooter is promoted to be IPX7 waterproof, not sure if this will be a long lasting sealing. AFAIK, none of other scooters can survive the heavy rain ride without serious manual waterproofing work. Would be interesting to see how it’s working in such extreme conditions.
Good point about the waterproofing. Having that from the factory is definitely a nice touch.
Alien Rides You know awhile back Minimotors was able to get one of their scooters to be UL2272 certified which great to know. Hope they get Dualtron Models certified one day.
@@cheeveka3 Didn't know that, that's awesome. I'm sure they're working on that with the new laws in Singapore.
Obey laws much?
The rider did not sadly, but this is good advice, we definitely should!
I am torn between this and buying an iMac 27 inch ! Yes I know there is no comparison but what can I say
Both are very amazing pieces of technology, and both overpriced 😬 I definitely want a new iMac 27” though, would be great to have for more video editing. If you don’t have a scooter yet though, I have to recommend one of those first, it can pay itself off with time getting you around.
Alien Rides great video by the way I’m sorry I didn’t even realise I had not commented! I already have the boosted mini and too be honest in Canada it spends most of the time in storage during the winter but in the summer it’s great! I also spend sometime in the UK and well there is never stops raining! Arghh.. thank you for the recommendation decisions decision and yes you are right they are way overpriced for the money!
Yeah, definitely get some kind of vehicle for riding in wet conditions. Scooters are not bad for it, and the boosted rev may be nice for wet weather. Also, consider an electric unicycle if you haven’t, my ride of choice in the rain.
Correct me if I am wrong but I thought electric scooters sold in the US had to have a 19mph speed limit? I have seen this comment thrown around but can not really find any specific law. thanks!
This varies widely from state-to-state actually, and I'm not familiar with the laws of all states yet. In California for example, most scooters are only legally allowed to go 15mph. This law is also like a speed limit though, and we know people never ignore speed limits 😉
Great review!!
Isha Miah thank you! 🙏
I agree. Suspension is a high priority for me.
thebarak yup, suspension is important for sure.
Thank you for the review. Informative. I don’t understand why folks are so hateful. I really don’t. I watch these reviews videos to learn something about the product.
Yeah, I think just the visual content may have struck a chord with people because it was a bit reckless riding 😅 oh well, I had limited footage to make this video, so used what I had.
Thanks for the comment!
Alien Rides all you were trying to do was put the darn thing through its paces. None of us had the opportunity. You did what you had and could do. They are Trolls.
I never thought about wearing a motorcycle jacket for safety gear. That's WWAAAAYYYYY easier than taking elbow pads on and off plus more protection !!!!!!
For sure, I dig the motorcycle jackets for ease of protection. Some people say they aren’t as protective as pads you strap on cause they can more around if not fitted though. But good enough for motorcycles = good enough for us.
Going at that kind of speed full face mask and jacket is recommend imo
Such a shame its 1700$, would’ve bought for like 800$ but 200 watts isnt worth almost 2k
Yeah, seems it was way overpriced, and possibly one of the reasons Boosted is no longer around as a company. RIP.
thanks for the video. but why you cut off the moments you go uphill? it is very important to know
Sorry if we did, the hill climb test is most important and I always try to feature that now. Overall the rev climbs hills fairly well with it's dual motor setup though! It just doesn't have the range I desire.
Good Video! :D I have recently buyed a el-scooter and i am happy! :D
Awesome! Which one did you get? Hope you enjoy it!
@@AlienRides I got the Denver SCO-65100 El-Scooter :D
I live in SF. Can you confirm this scooter can conquer the hills with a reasonable speed? (Xiaomi scooters fail miserably)
Saman Sh yes, I think this scooter should do way better than a Xiaomi, but not as good as say a Dualtron.
After watching your videos, I’ve decided to purchase a Dualtron 3 with tons of accessories yesterday and I can’t wait to get my hands on it! I’m in the Bay Area as well, and I look forward to meet you guys in person, and ride together!
Back to the Boosted scooter, I love their long boards, been using one for a little over a year now; even tho I don’t ride much, but I still think the product is premium and the price isn’t the worst compare to some other e-boards out there. However, this particular product will disappoint many boosted fans. Since they are a little late to this market, I am sure most of the people will consider a Zero 10x over this any day. Only for those that really care about customer service, and ease of purchasing boosted products will maybe buy one. Again, with the built quality of other brands improving over the past few years, I really don’t see the reason of buying this one, not to mention that it won’t come out till later this year.
Again, I really appreciate that you take your time make these amazing videos, and I can’t wait to hangout with everyone soon!
- Michael
Great points here, it seems like Boosted either didn't gather enough information from the market, or is extremely confident in their brand making them successful here.
Dualtron 3 is a great scooter, I'm sure you will love it. Hope to see you on a group ride soon!
Thanks mate for uploading this video - cool yeah! I'll let you know what I think after I see and test this weekend (hopefully...) but good to hear your thoughts... Won't be buying it as no suspension and even though I'm going to have to do quite a few modifications (which will still keep it's weight down to less than 20kg), I am getting the Spider anyway. Hopefully Boosted will produce another "proper" version in the future.. having just one model just doesn't make sense...... :-)
Yeah, going to be interesting to see how many of these they actually sell, and what the future is. Spider is an awesome scooter for sure, you're going to love it!
@@AlienRides Just glad you gave your views after you actually tested - there are more than a few UA-camrs who are jumping on the Boosted bandwagon doing videos of themselves just talking crap about something they've never seen or tested themselves for hits and likes - so sad...….. :-(
Jayesh Patel yeah, new things bring eyeballs and I guess youtubers will do anything to get those views. Personally I’d rather do videos when I have legit footage of the vehicle and some hands on experience with it. I might do some speculation videos in the future, but will will he clearly labeled as such if I do.
@@AlienRides Alright mate, went to see the Boosted Rev but it turned out to be a joke "event"! After an hour train journey to get into central London, got there, decent turn-out (20 > 30 people - just one scooter!!!!
And to top it off - they then get kicked out of the park for not having permission to be there to promote the scooter - WTF????
Anyone who turned up after 11:30, no one would have been there, good job I got there early?
Won’t be looking or even thinking about this scooter again! Couldn't organize a piss-up in a brewery.....dread to think what their customer service is like - Boosted you suck!!!!
Jayesh Patel oof that’s really rough, sorry they couldn’t do a better job in your city :(
@ Alien rides, Thank you for the great video (love your vids) . Would it be possible to make a comparison vid with a Dualtron Spider (Speedway mini 5) or any competitive scooter in the same price category? Would be very nice. ☺️
Yeah, that’s a great idea. I would love to do more comparison videos, I just don’t have all of the scooters myself. Thanks for the request, I’ll see what I can do in the future.
@@AlienRides thank you in advance!! 😁😁👍👍
Best sounding electric scooter on the market
I agree, this scooter does sound great as well. Maybe I should do a "scooter sound" comparison video...
Alien Rides .....agaaaainst the Speedway 5! ;-)
Try the Kaabo Wolf Warrior II.
@@darwinubaldo680 Thanks for the suggestion, it's on my list of things to try :)
Great build quality from what i have heard so far but the lack of suspension and range at this price range gets to me. For a simple commuter scooter the xiaomi or gotrax would still get the job done at 1/4 the price. I don't personally understand who this is for exactly since commuter scooter riders normally don't want to spend much while enthusiast would honestly expect more basic features like suspension and a slightly higher deck clearance for the price.
Steven Marquez yeah, maybe “rich commuters” with extra disposable income. Seems like a pretty narrow slice of users though, I’m not sure why they’d limit themselves like that 🤷♂️
@@AlienRides Yea you might be right.
I love that place more which place is it?
San Francisco, California, USA, Earth 👽🖖
Anybody thinking about getting the speedway 5 better look into it thoroughly. Minimotors USA just released a video on how to replace a controller on it. Why would they do that? Evidently there must be problems with bad controllers on them.
When is the full Speedway 5 review coming?
Thanks for the request. We did a short video on the Speedway 5 with a friend, and I'd love to do a more detailed video in the future. I'll add it to my growing list of things to create.
Many thanks! Looking forward to it! Great content so far!!
Lack of suspension is lack of 'quality '. It has plastic on the underside too. It's certainly not better than the Mercane at 1600 dollars. The Widewheel Mercane has longer range too and 600.00 less makes it the better option. But both have dual motors (optional on Widewheel) that gives the needed torque for hill climbing. The Boosted is light years better than any ride sharing single motor electric scooter though but 1600 is a bit much. Make it 1200.00 and then it would attract a far better market share. Hell, for 1700 I can get the Turbowheel lighting that goes 40mph!
Great thoughts, agree with everything you said. I’m sure they will have a niche if buyers though, the boosted brand is strong.
its a sick scooter but its way too expensive. I was on my Splach the other day and someone on a Boosted Rev just blew past me. hahaha looked like fun!
Yeah, I agree. It's nice, but a little expensive. Well built though.
I was disappointed by the low top speed, low range, and lack of suspension. Regarding tightness of the stem - every scooter I've owned (3 manual and 3 electric) started out night and tight, but would loosen over time. I've yet to find one that behaves any better.
I'm more interested in seeing dualtron 3s go lower in price. For something smaller or portable, I'd lean towards the speedway mini pro line.
Oh, lastly, the handlebar doesn't fold.
Great video - thanks for sharing hillclimb and commentary.
Good points, agree with pretty much everything you said. Will be interesting to see if if boosted changes anything for future scooter models.
I’m planning on buying boosted rev and Segway max what is recommendation between these two
Eric Wong our of these two I think the boosted rev has the better specs, at least speed wise, so that would be my preference.
I think at half the price, the Ninebot/Segway max is just as good. You might not have the same speed going up hills, but it can still climb them but slower.
Hi nice vid, I seem to be gravitating toward the boosted for 2 reasons
a) portability- locked mechanosm and footprint when collapsed folded makes it easier to carry for a commuter.
b) the electric brake, I seem to be enamored by this option, coupled w mechanical discs, wanted to know of this helped gear down the speed going downhill to give a manual "geared down" feel. Let me know if this is true.
Hi, thanks. The electronic brake is good, though pretty much any respectable scooter will offer an electric brake. It sounds like the boosted rev could be a good fit for you if the range and weight are about what you’re looking for. Hope you enjoy it!
@@AlienRides did a test ride on the spider very nice machine, my one wish I really wanted was the portability but there is no lock mechanism, requiring both hands to haul it into a bus or bart, no free arm left to swipe Clipper card
Noel S yeah, that’s a good point. I do think you could add a custom locking mechanism, not sure if it’s easy or not though.
It’s noisy right?
A little bit, but mostly cause you hear the tires on the road. PEVs are very quiet! 👽🖖
With the upcoming ninebot max meh gudluck to boosted .
well over 2K EUR in Europe. :/
Nagy Márton 2k fucking euros? Wtf
@@Nosci1020 yeah if I order from the US, found a retailer in Austria, 1799+shipping.
Nagy Márton jesus why they do this? If it only cost 1599 in the US why would they increase it by a lot when it comes to europe?
@@Nosci1020 Import tax and VAT. 27% just the VAT in my country.
Looks like a great scooter, but with such a short range, I will still have to charge at work and the fact that its so much more expensive than Zero 10x, to makes it dealbreaker for me.
Marius Bjørck yup, I think most scooter enthusiasts will enjoy the 10X more than this.
Alien Rides Compare Booted Scooter to Z10X and Speedway V which would be better construct - speed - weight - hill in SF and range? Are Boosted even in that same category?
@@capfusion6379 Price wise it is in the same category, except performance and range wise, the 10X and Speedway V clearly win.
The boosted probably is better constructed with quality components though, not sure if that's worth the sacrifice in performance, depends on your individual needs.
No suspension = less parts to wear out and break :-O
On cars the wheels are the ones that absorbs the bumps.
This air tire is nice. But much better then riding on solid skateboard wheels.
No suspension means all parts get shocked and WEAR OUT
@@stephensomersify the bearings took the most damage on my boosted board. But your correct. But air filled tires are good and they absorb the bumps. But having suspension well help a lot in the big holes.
There are other options and maybe V2 of rev will have suspension in the future.
At this price Speedway 5 is so much better in basically every aspect.
TheChazas the Speedway V is a bit heavier, but for performance specifications, you’re absolutely right. Much better bang for your buck there.
Lets ride bro i got a fat scooter i can hit the city with you you bring dualtron i wanna race at ggpark
Definitely, let's ride! Look up baesk8, we do weekly rides! baesk8.club
Brilliant, just write "closed course" in the video and the cops can't see the traffic:)
Step 1 - ride like a jackass around San Francisco
Step 2 - play it off like it was intentional and a closed course
Step 3 - Get outed by a comment
😬😅
Why is the guy riding as if he’s trying to take a poo?
Sometimes you just gotta go 🤷♂️😂
Please review the Inokim OXO
I would like to, i’ve heard good things about them.
I was there lol not sure when you went but I took my ride around 1pm
Nice. I think I left right before 1 to head to our Baesk8 group ride.Dud you ride the scooter?
Alien Rides yeah I came down from Santa Rosa just to ride it. It’s cool different, I own two boosted boards Stealth and Mini X. I need to catch one of the group rides I haven’t had the opportunity to ride with y’all yet
Ryan Witherspoon please do sometime, it’s so much fun!
This guy will be in the ER.
Brian Switzer for sure, perhaps I should title that part if the video, “how to end up in the ER” 😬
Boosted Customer service is terrible - They WILL NOT SELL PARTS to dealers. So when need new brakes or any other minor part you need to send BACK YOU scooter to Boosted in California. An major Australian Boosted dealer come to California to meet with Boosted they refused to sell them parts so Aussie buyers need to ship scooter back to California for repairs. Boosted ONLY CARE about Sales - they have ZERO interest is helping out customers and dealers for after sales service. It;;s awesome if you live is the SF Bay area it totally sucks if you live elsewhere. FWIW Boosted actually told a San Francisco dealer to STOP SENDING customers back to Mountain View Boosted Factory because they don't want deal with them. BUYER BEWARE.
Sorry to hear about your problems. I heard that their customer service was good, but I haven't dealt with them and maybe it's going downhill.
5:55 nice show off
Sliding out the backend is a lot of fun for sure. 👍
It’s kinda amusing when people complain about scooters. I’ve noticed that a lot cyclists tend to do that
as well no one ever complains about that 🤔 Hmm
Can you recommend a reputable online store where I can order the 10X or the Wolf Warrior 11
Where are you located? If in the USA we don't have wolf warriors here yet, but will in the future. For the 10X, the following are both great resources:
* ewheels.com/alien
* revrides.com
Also just going through old comments and not sure if people are looking for a wolf warrior seller in the USA, but you can find one here now: fluidfreeride.com?ref=21
I am already reserved hahaha
Cool, hope you enjoy it!
It's a lot louder than I expected.
TheRealAlpha2 yeah, it’s definitely loud, but I think it does sound pretty cool!
I really like this I reserved one.
Cool, it seems really well made, hope you enjoy it!
REAL QUICK REVIEW, THE BOOSTED REV IS JUST NOT WORTH THE MONEY!!!!
Can't disagree with what you said! 💯
Boosted Rav comes with issues be aware.!
That's concerning, I thought it was a quality built scooter. What kind of issues have you heard about?
Alien Rides I have a video in my Chanel. You can see that scooter does speed up after a month using it . I’m very Disappointment with costumer service.
😍😍😍
I do not see in the shop the scooter you show in the video
Yup, the boosted rev is a brand new scooter and will be in shops in the near future. I believe you have to reserve one on the boosted website if you want one.
@@AlienRides You know what will be the maximum speed in km/h and its price aprox
@@samuel7497 $1,600 for about 40kmh or so.
If you want faster skateboard there is metroboard and evolveboard.
If you want 55mph+ scooter nanrobot.
For me i dont need anything faster then 25mph. And i do love boosted products
Hi alien! I think that scooter es overpriced. No doubt is well made, but for that money you can get a dualtron and blow out that thing out of the road. Nice design, sure, but at least for me dont worth the 1600 bucks.
Yeah, if you're looking for speed and performance, this scooter is not for you. If you only need a vehicle to get to and from work, for a few miles a day, this could work. Personally, I'll stick to having fun on my Dualtron Thunder :)
@@AlienRides yep, but for that kind of use (point a to point b) you can get a mi365 with a cooked firmware lol for a fraction of the price of the boosted. BTW, today i literaly cooked the motor of my 365 and now Is pure garbage. Shit happens my dear 😂
MAS DYN oof, I haven’t cooked a motor yet, sorry to hear about your scooter. What’s next for you? Have you seen the Kaabo mantis?
@@AlienRides Rion? 🤔 lol
@@diegog1105 365 -> Rion? Craziest upgrade I ever heard 😂👍 Good luck with your decision and purchase!
What part of the market were they trying to target with this thing ? The in-between part that nobody wants ? What the hell were they thinking😂. They're pretty successful with their Electric skateboards. They need to stick with what they know and improve on that.👍✌
Maybe there is a "rich commuter" market who wants to look good on a scooter, but not necessarily have fun on one? Or maybe they're relying on their brand name? I'm not sure TBH 🤷♂️
These are all preproduction prototypes lets see real product in real life situations before passing judgment.
who the hell's going to spend that much money on a scooter that's not good for driving you around the city I mean it's pretty fucking slow for a boosted scooter
I bet you never drove any of these, its even too fast I think. 15mph is enough
If you're going to go from boosted boards to scooters then you got to be ahead of the game because they just created like a first gen piece of trash that doesn't equal up to anyone else
Y’all crazy if you this this is overpriced. I like to see your $350 scooter go up those hills that fast. If you don’t think those hills aren’t steep then you don’t know what you’re talking about. I guarantee your cheap ass scooter can’t make it up half a block on those hill with out you kicking and before that this scooter already went from where they started Laguna to almo square.
Also....reason why it’s so “short” range is because the scooter requires higher volts for the power it gives. Different battery configuration.
People gotta stop comparing cheap stuff to this. It’s like saying why would I spend 100k on a model s p100 while I can buy a used Nissan Leaf for 5k 🤦🏻♂️ Come on now...🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Go slow around pedestrians!
Expensive, no suspension, less range. I’d rather something else. 10x or Speedway IV
Makes total sense if you're a scooter enthusiast who likes to enjoy the ride!
Bwaaahahaha is this the product of "millennial tech engineering"? It just looks and performs slightly better than Razor scooter from the 90" lol. 2020 and still can't figure out how to design a practical folding handlebar? I mean, it's totally sticking out and on the way when folded, making it look so silly and most importantly impractical to carry or stow in the car. Plus, can't either design suspensions in 2020? Millennial tech engineering at its best, really??? lmfao This is obviously a joke for a 2020 scooter with absolutely zero technology in it. People who are going to buy this obviously know nothing about escooters.
I would say that the engineering of the product is actually quite good, but poor business and product decisions led to that product. I agree in that it’s definitely lacking!
Engineering is "quite good"? Hum,,,wait what? Where? Define engineering! The frame is tubular and had been used to build bike frames and scooters forever, so nothing new! The motor is just an average standard same motor is used on all electric ebikes and scooters. The battery is below average quality. The design is so basic that it misses the handlebar up/down adjustment which is terrible because people have different heights eg. how can be ok for a 4 foot tall and a 6 foot tall??? The bar sticks out when folded. No shock??? and on and on and on. So, where the heck do you see the engineering/technology????? Oh, and it's heavy like a tank without any suspension! This is not going to be a success. They need to completely re-design it to be a winner in this now very competitive market. They think they can gouge $1600 for this just because they built their brand. Wrong!!! Not going to happen.
JJ Taylor engineering is more about fancy features though, tolerances and build quality for example. I would love for my Dualtron handlebar to be as stiff as the boosted. I would probably never ride a boosted rev though, for all the reasons you elaborate 😅
