Your in Chicago! I ride my Apollo go in the mornings. I hit 250 miles each month. Yeah my Go gets a lot of attention and I get people with a lot of questions. lol rode my go from the west suburbs to downtown
@@HisShadowX yes I work in the West Loop so i take the train in everyday. How has it handled the streets so far? I have been so on the fence about the GO, if it can handle like a 225lb rider. Or will it feel like a toy…so just been on the fence.
@@GiovanniHale when I got the Apollo Go I was 250. I am now 225 and rode in 30 degree weather. I have owned three scooters so far and I ordered the Punk Rider Pro today due to the fact tire changes look WAY easier. The worst part of the Go is the fact it barely has any shocks and yeah you’ll feel every bump. Early last month I had a huge wipe out on 16th Ave due to small pothole. Everyone likes the Go it’s easy to pick up and yeah I have rode it down 16th Ave from where it begins to ends. I have rode Cermack from Oak Brook Mall to Westchester and it rides good people said it literally looks like I am flying.
@@GiovanniHale one more thing to add is the tire changes are hell and also the app does have a glitch to where the speed won’t match to the app when you first get it. You just factory reset your scooter and this issue fixes itself
@@HisShadowX Well i will say with the punk rider pro. when i changed the back tire when it popped on me it was pretty easy. Total cost was about 250 for the tire. Motor was just fine. Keep in mind the punk rider pro is certainly going to be heavier then the go and faster. I would love to join you on a ride if you up for that type of thing.
@@GiovanniHaleThe Go isn’t ready for that type of ride sadly. I’m waiting in the Punk Rider to ship out. I definitely recommend checking out the Salt Creek trail it’s an amazing path I haven’t ridden that from Oak Brook to Brookfield but I might try it out with the punk rider. I also highly recommend looking for scooter groups I know up north they do have riding clubs
Hey hey! So your scooter would turn off specifically when using the regen throttle when going downhill? Is the scooter usually near full charge when going down that hill?
Yes it was typically a full charge. I learned after working with the support team that you are not to use the Regen throttle while the vehicle is fully charged. Since finding that out and modifying my riding behavior. It’s a non issue!
@@MrMotoMotivate that’s great to hear! On the Apollo GO they also have a warning about not using regen brake lever until you’re below 90%. I didn’t even think about that with this scooter. It sounds like that power off behavior is basically a protection mechanism. Great info.

get those miles!!! higher inflation has def made a difference for my battery life, but it's also a bit of a rougher ride. ride safe! 🛴❤
