What makes you think Henry and I are bots? Maybe you are :P

I have been riding scooter for more than 10 years, first petrol scooter and then electric scooter. However, I was mostly living in a small town where there was small traffic. However, I now live in a big city and I don't feel very safe to ride my electric scooter. Do you feel confident riding...

eBike costs more than a mountain or a regular bike. Escooter comes in a various price range but generally it is more expensive than petrol scooter. Apart from the purchase, which is generally expensive, what other expenses related to owning electric bike or scooter surprised you? Battery...

I haven't used ebike yet, but I am thinking to get one. I have a farm house and it is few kilometers off road from the highway, I want to get a foldable ebike that I can take for off road riding. Has anyone taken their e-bike off-road? How does it handle rough terrain compared to a regular...

Maximum distance I have covered on my electric scooter is 100 kilometers. I haven't dared to go over 100 kilometers even though charging stations are easily available in the city and also in the highways. Have you used e-scooters for longer trips. How far have you gone? How do you manage...

I use escooter and I find it very reliable for daily commute, I haven't used ebike but I would like to know how reliable are they during busy routines? Are ebike really good for daily commute? Do you find them faster or more efficient than public transport or cars? What are the major challenges...

There is a popular brand of electric scooter in my place, the manufacturer promises 350 kilometers in a single full charge. I haven't used it but the one I use says 160 kilometers. Manufacturers usually claim high range numbers, but real-world usage is different. What range do you actually get...

Your ebike and escooter also need servicing but as compared to traditional two wheelers they require less maintenance. For example, when I was using pettol scooter, I had to take to the mechanic every 3-4 months, and now I take my electric scooter only in 6-6 months. However, sometimes...

Frankly speaking, a lot of people believe that e-bikes are better for the environment because they don't use fossil fuel. But I wonder how true that is when you think about the battery production or disposal of battery. Then there is also an issue of charging battery through fossil powered...

After using petrol scooter for many years, I changed to electroct scooter about two years ago. The things you hear about escooter as compared to petrol scoother, might feel different when you actually buy. On paper, e-scooters seem cheaper and quieter (cheaper not in terms of pricing but in...

I have been riding escooter as well as emotorbike for a while. Based on my personal experience I can say battery life varies a lot depending on riding style, terrain, and even weather. For example, you get significantly less range on hills or in cold conditions. What other things impact battery...

I use Yadea. I can get it for £1000 in my home country. It is a Chinese escooter widely popular in my home country.

I follow 20/80 rule. I don't let the battery level go down 20 percent and never charge above 80 percent. I also avoid using the throttle to start from a complete stop.

I was once hit by a bicycle. I fell on the ground and behind me was a bus. The driver applied brakes on the right time and I missed the hit by just one feet. I only had minor bruises.

The longest ride I ever took was 100 kilometers. My vehicle gets me 160 kilometers in a single full charge
