5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome Scooter-Very well Built !!!, December 27, 2011
This review is from: Currie Technologies eZip E450 Electric Scooter (Red) (Sports)
This scooter was impossible to find at any of the local stores. Thanks to Amazon for having them in stock. I ordered on the 23rd and received on the 27th due to me ordering them 1hr. past the deadline for a Friday (Dec. 23rd) delivery. Anyway, Upon receipt of the scooters (2 purchased), unboxing revealed that both tail lights were broken in shipping. From looking at how they were packaged, you can see why. The scooters themselves were actually heavy and sturdy. This IS NOT A TOY scooter. This thing feels sturdier than some cars I've seen. Assembly took 1 hr. for both scooter and was very simple. I can't stress enough how well built and designed these things are. The kick stand is literally a 1/4" piece of steel attached with a very sturdy spring and has no issues holding the scooter in place with authority. The wheels and tires came pre-inflated and are of high quality rubber. The On/Off switch is a toggle switch and is placed on the lower section of the steering column above the... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars First impressions, September 14, 2011

This review is from: Currie Technologies eZip E450 Electric Scooter (Red) (Sports)
Box came a little roughed up. Scooter was packaged well, but on further inspection it appears there are slight dents on the sides of the scooter under the battery cover. However, when the cover is put back it is unnoticeable so no big deal. I didn't charge the scooter for the initial 6 to 8 hours because I was too excited haha. It runs very well! I weigh about 155 pounds and it tackles hills no problem. It will probably run even better on a full charge! I am 5'10" and the handlebars are too short to ride comfortably standing up. Sitting down is fine. It starts from a dead stop.

One trouble I encountered putting it together was that the battery connector was in the way so you couldn't close the battery cover. You have to put the connector underneath the battery so that it fits in the grooves on the bottom and lay the battery on top. (You'll understand when you see it)

Will update review if anything drastically changes.

Pros:
Powerful - fast even on... Read more

I've had mine for a few weeks and have found it to be a lot of fun to ride. I'm 5'10" and weight 185 pounds and this scooter holds me fine. I use the seat which makes it much easier to ride. My scooter came with no dents or packaging problems as some others have complained about. It's about 90% assembled. Just install the seat post first, then the folding stem post, and lastly the handlebars. One tip is to make sure the hinge on the folding stem post faces the seat and that the quick release locking lever faces foward. The battery seems to hold it's charge even though it's stored in my rather cold garage. Since it has no shock absorbers or seat springs, it operates best on smooth asphalt streets. I like it!
