A simple and effective trick when using reinforcement (rugged) clamps to is to secure the levers vertically (top lever upwards and the bottom lever downwards) and not horizontally towards and against the stem. This means you can pull and push the levers much more easily, and achieve a stronger lock.
No doubt, favorite upgrade for me by far on my 60v Lightning+ has been the K-Wheel (Ali-express) steering dampener. Transformed the steering feel to night and day better, and now I can sometimes safely take one hand off the steering bar for short periods without fear. I would not go back to another dual motor scooter without a steering dampener.
To help make the handlebar fold better, I removed the right side handle bar and swapped the position of the key switch and the throttle/display. This gives more room for the handlebar to fold down. I can still reach the throttle lever like normal after the reposition.
I got 60V version with the clamp - totally agree with the comments! One other upgrade that is a game changer if you ride in the dark - Sigma Buster 2000 light. Best light bar none. Cars give way now!
Thanks for the upgrade short there Chuck :) Like the rugged clip idea. Solar Scooters, here in the UK, have been using a triple version on their R1 since they launched it! Like that you also mentioned the cons on some of the upgrades too.. that was nice to see.
I commute 16 miles daily and read alot about steering dumper. Wheel did wobble at the beginning, first week or so but then I adjusted and do 30-40mph regularly without any wobble. I would suggest not to rush with the dumper. Rear mud guard trully sucks! I gaffa-taped a piece of plastic on the end of it to stop arriving soaking wet :( All other solutions: tyre-hugger or extensions that use adhesive on the underside of rear mudgard - failed.
Thank you so much for making this video! Do you know if its possible to restrict max speed to 20 km/h (12.4 mph) with 60v Zero 10x - its illegal to ride more than that in the streets here, but I plan on taking it out of town at times. Either way, I dont want to compromise on quality by selecting other lower budget scooters, and I really love the Zero 10x. I hope your reply can help me choose! Thank you in advance
Hey great videos and great reviews I have a question I am so undecided on with scooter to buy since you reviewed so many scooters can you please help me make a decision. ok these are the scooters I am looking at ( mantis pro se) nanrobot d6 plus)or the zero 10x) can you help me with is the better one thank you hope to here from u soon
I haven't heard of that one. There is almost always some small variation even within the scooters that look alike and have the same specs. Sometimes it's battery brand, or BMS settings, sometimes other changes. I'd always go with a brand where you've got local (same country) support, in case the scooter shows up DOA. -Paul
Just broke this scooter today after almost 3 years and 1300km. Not the stem, but the front arc in the place where is the hole for the cable in it, which I see as very dangerous design flaw. I will try to post some video to see what has happend. First I do not jumps on it, I am just driving very rough road from my house to the downtown, with lots of holes in it, so that is why I bought this one. So my point is, be careful, check the front arc and don't buy scooters with this design flaw.
Actually, performance scooters should not f o l d at all in my opinion( That's why I look for performance electric tricycles, nothing more than casual kick scooters and unicycles)...
I abhor folding performance scooters, but so many people transport them in the back of trucks or SUVs to do weekend or leisure rides that folding is still too important to leave out.
@@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide Yes, I would just bring the tool to unbolt the stem if it was for more than an hour( I bring the casual scooters inside with me, when stopping anywhere) and if I was using a performance one I would rent a parking spot
@@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide were is your installation fees based off of? My area over charges a good amount becouse electric scooters are still "New" to the area. (Fresno,CA)
@@Mypitbull82 lol for example, they're selling the Solar P1 for I think £1,799 on "sale"... this scooter costs around £800 on Alibaba etc. So minus £1,000... You really think you're gonna spend £1,000 repairing your scooter in two years? A controller alone is around £60 and they may fail once in a year or more or 6 months, who knows. It doesn't work out worth it in the long run...
Lights lights lights. No bloody lights. I'm Australian. We have problems with marsupials the size of men hopping around at night. I won't light's to let them know I'm coming, as well as show me where they are.

You should be careful whit hydronic brakes. It is NOT RECOMMENDED to “use” the breaks without the rotor like the demonstration. While working on bikes with hydro brakes we put small plastic insert between the pad to avoid accidental press. Please don’t break with no pad with hydro brakes.

Does it bolt on with no modification to the scooter?
That rugged clamp is a must! Scooter feels so much more solid than before.
The scooter should come with this standard.
To help make the handlebar fold better, I removed the right side handle bar and swapped the position of the key switch and the throttle/display. This gives more room for the handlebar to fold down. I can still reach the throttle lever like normal after the reposition.
Thanks so much. I'm going to test ride the 10x tomorrow and will be asking about these upgrades!
I got 60V version with the clamp - totally agree with the comments! One other upgrade that is a game changer if you ride in the dark - Sigma Buster 2000 light. Best light bar none. Cars give way now!
got every upgrade you said(not that alarm just a motion sensor) and i have added a thumb throttle and steering damper, love the video by the way.
Thanks for the informative video!
Thanks Robert!
Thanks for the upgrade short there Chuck :) Like the rugged clip idea. Solar Scooters, here in the UK, have been using a triple version on their R1 since they launched it! Like that you also mentioned the cons on some of the upgrades too.. that was nice to see.
What about steering damper, upgraded mud guards, rapid charger, horn, different tires, etc...
Steering damper made a huge improvement with stability on mine! Ali baba $160 bolts right on and has an adjustable damper.
This!

These are great upgrades and I got the first 3 thrown in with the purchase of my Turbowheel Lightning from eWheels !
I would argue that that rugged clamp upgrade is a must
Mine came with the folding bar, I kinda don't like it bc it takes away from bar space, I'm looking at reverting back to the standard bar
Will this clap work for the eagle 0ne?
Yes, it should work. I don't know first-hand of anyone who has done it, but from what I understand, they are variants of the same scooter. -Paul
On my varla eagle one would the brakes be an upgrade from what it comes with stock...
Hydraulic brakes are a upgrade! -Vosk
Can you recommend a cell phone holder for my Kaabo Mantis?
i changed today the old brakes to hidraulic, and jesus, what a diference...
My top 3 would be 1) Hydraulic brake (so buy the scooter with them), 2) Rugged clamp, 3) rear damped spring shock absorber
agere, hydraulic brakes are just much better than the others
So all of this also work for the Apollo pro and the mantis pro ?
