Ebike, Electric Scooter, or Electric Skateboard: Which Should You Choose?

  • Welcome to my latest video where I break down the pros and cons of ebikes, electric scooters, and electric skateboards to help you decide which one suits you best!
    Electric Scooters:
    Pros: Super compact and foldable, perfect for zipping around and even taking into stores. They're usually cheaper than ebikes and ideal for short to medium distances.
    Cons: Small wheels can be tricky on rough terrain, standing for long distances can be tiring, limited storage, and a bit less stable compared to ebikes.
    Electric Skateboards:
    Pros: Insanely portable and lightweight, making them easy to carry around. They're the most affordable option and perfect for quick, short trips.
    Cons: Small wheels mean bumps are an issue, there’s a learning curve to ride them, and limited range with small batteries.
    Ebikes:
    Pros: The most popular of the three, offering comfort and ease for long distances. They have great storage options and feel secure with five points of contact.
    Cons: More expensive and bulkier than scooters or skateboards, making them harder to carry and requiring secure locking when parked.
    In this video, I also share some personal experiences and tips for each option. From cruising around town on an electric scooter, darting into the city with an electric skateboard, to relaxing long rides on an ebike - I've tried it all!
    Which one would you choose? Let me know in the comments below!

    I’m a big guy with back problems. Need a sit down scooter I can pick up and put in my car. Can only walk short distances. Love your channel Tim,

    I have an eboard but there are just too many bumps and gravel on the road where I live. I used to have a Cosco ebike, which I returned. Now Im putting the lightweight Swytch kit onto my road bike. You can take the small portable battery in your bag when you lock up your bike.
    I do believe that if I lived in Van and used the skytrain, the skateboard would get used. But indtead, i live in a place with uneven curbs, rocks on the road, etc.

      Awesome @-whackd, that you've found what works for you and where you live....I said no to reviewing the Swytch...I just thought it looked like too much work...how did you find it? Helpful on the hills?

    I keep my m365 scooter clone around because there are aftermarket racks that can be mounted above the rear wheel. I strap a milk crate to it and can easily haul 3 full grocery bags.

    I have an ADA (American Disabilities Act) special exemption from my grocery store company so that I can take my ebike in my nearby grocery store as a Senior citizen. They don't take more space than a grocery shopping cart and the store doesn't have to worry about me stealing one. However an eScooter would be great to have as well. I like your great channel.

      Awesome @m9078jk3, I love to hear that your grocery store has no issues with you taking the ebike into the store...makes total sense to me...plus your ebike doesn't get stollen :) :) Cheers

      @@TimsElectric that’s even more of a reason to ride one it frees up your hands to use for balance, hand signals, even something as simple as waving is now easy and doesn’t make your steering wheel wobble lol… really is not hard to learn at all just like riding a bike had a learning period so will an euc but take your time and you will be thankful you did! Once your learn you rarely take any spills bcuz you dictate how comfortable of a pace you ride at! You will not regret it I promise nothing matches that feeling of an Euc by a long shot and I’ve ridden everything electric (scooters, bikes, eskates, etc)
