ride real good with weight 330 and 90% put together

After a bunch of research, I took a chance on the D1. The reviews seemed positive but I wasn't familiar with the brand. It came shipped FedEx and was much heavier than I anticipated. One knock on the shipping, unless you have help lifting this out of the box, you're going to have to cut it open. I think if they used a box like a TV where the top slides off, it would be much easier for one person to unbox, especially since they recommend saving the box for 30 days if there are issues. The assembly went together pretty quickly and the instructions were decent. I did have an issue with the left hand control having a crack in it so it would slip a bit but their customer service was extremely responsive, helpful and they sent out a replacement quickly. They've also followed up to see how the replacement went and if I needed any other help which is outstanding. You don't get that kind of service nowadays. As far as the scooter goes, it is a great value for the money! I do wish I would've waited for the current Black Friday sale as its an even better deal but I am very satisfied so far. I've got about 50 miles on the scooter, mainly riding around the neighborhood following my daughter on her bike. Its comfortable, very quick and the cruise control feature is helpful for keeping pace. I do wish the turn signals made noise when they were flipped on as I've forgotten them on a number of times. The faux engine noises are a cool touch and the onboard Bluetooth speaker gets plenty loud for listening to music while cruising. The vintage looks was just what I was looking for in a scooter and the storage area under the seat is cavernous. One other thing I'd like to see is the charge port either moved somewhere central or offer it on both sides. I keep this thing parked close up to a wall and would prefer to have it face the other way but that blocks the charge port.

The scooter is very well designed. However, when engaging the throttle from start or when making a slow turn, it is far too strong and jerky creating an unsafe situation. Is there an adjustment to solve this problem?

More than a toy scooter, less than the enthusiast models. For an 8-mile commute that's exactly the right spot.

Folded it stands upright in a coat closet and the door closes. That decided it over a bigger scooter.

Very easy & fun design.

Faint click when pulling hard on the bars. Tightened the folding clamp per the manual and it went away. Worth knowing the adjustment exists.

Rear fender does its job. Rode through standing water and arrived without a stripe up my jacket.

Fine for city riding where there are streetlights. On a dark path I'd want more throw.

Consistent charge times across a month. Charger is a normal size brick, not a laptop-sized one.

Easy to hold a steady speed without constant correction. My last scooter had an on-off feel that was tiring.

There's some travel and it takes the sharpest edges off. Don't expect plush, do expect better than rigid.

I'm 6'3" and most scooters have me hunched. The stem is tall enough that I stand upright.

One latch and it's down. I do it on a train platform without holding anyone up.

Rated higher, but I ride with the lights on and don't baby the throttle. Twenty is dependable for me.

needs to be a bit faster!

Wet shoes on wet deck and I never felt my foot shift. Sounds minor until you've slipped on a slick deck.

The other one felt twitchy at speed, this one tracks straight and stable even over uneven pavement.

Live somewhere gusty and expected to be readjusting them constantly, but they've stayed put through some rough weather.

Eight miles each way, five days a week, since August. It does the job and asks nothing of me except a charge.

Cranked it to test the limits on a quiet street and it stayed crisp, better than I expected from a built-in unit.

Asked about wear expectations given how much I ride and they checked in a few weeks later to see how it was holding up, appreciated the follow-through.

I enjoying riding!

Never rode one in person before ordering, but knowing I had 30 days to send it back if it wasn't right made the decision easy. Ended up keeping it.

Storage unit isn't huge but this scooter's footprint works fine there, doesn't stick out awkwardly like I worried it might based on the dimensions.

Screen froze once after a firmware thing, reached out and they walked me through a reset over chat in about 15 minutes. Hasn't happened since.

Was worried the range would drop noticeably once temperatures dipped, but so far it's held up close to what I get in warmer weather.

Took a route with a loose gravel patch I usually avoid and the tires just gripped through it fine, no sliding or loss of control.

Commute to my office involves a decent hill and the scooter doesn't feel underpowered even loaded down with a full bag. Seat is comfortable for the 25-minute ride.

Cranked it up on a quiet street to test the limits and it stayed clear, no crackle even near max volume. Better than I expected from a built-in unit.

He'd been eyeing a moto-style scooter for months. Delivery took about a week and arrived well before his birthday. He rides it every weekend now.
