Use Case
Portable Scooter For Inner City Rides
Most Reliable In The Rain
While we did not invest in an IP rating for the ZERO 9, it is the scooter from our portfolio that has the least problems with water damage. The display is IP66 rated. The two fenders do an excellent job in keeping the water down. And the deck openings are protected with silicone.
Intuitive Cockpit
The display with three riding gears allows for ample customizations such as zero start and cruise control. It comes with a smooth to operate thumb throttle. The maintenance free rear drum brake is effective and triggers brake lighting. Triple front and dual rear LEDs ensure good visibility at night. We recommend a handlebar height headlight like the DRIDER flash for extended night rides.
Best In Class Portability
The grip above the rear wheel allows for an easy pick up of your scooter without foling it down. The scooter folds down in seconds, the steering column locks in place for easy one-handed carry. For a minimal footprint you can collapse the handlebars as well.
Dual Suspension
In this price range, dual suspension is a rarity. The ZERO 9 delivers a smooth and stable ride even on rougher road conditions. For an optimal stance, you can adjust the handlebar height to your liking. And you can use the rear handle as your foot rest.
Classic Design
The matt black finish with subtle branding makes for an understated look. It's rather classic in design but due to its outstanding reliablity with many riders reporting thousands of miles, we are shying away from changing any of the proven components
How It Compares
The ZERO 9 E Scooter is our best selling all-round commuter scooter. It is more powerful and has better ride quality than a rental scooter

Since range of electric scooters varies greatly by riding style and rider weight, here are some examples for this particular model so you can judge:
30 miles
Optimal Conditions (165 lb rider, 15 mph constant speed, 13Ah variant)
This is the range you can get under optimal conditions. Usually manufacturers quote this type of range. We expect real world range to be lower since you will not go at constant slow speed.
