Top Rated Street Legal Electric Scooters For Adults
First of all we are going to take a look at the Razor EcoSmart Metro electric scooter, it comes highly rated and is very reasonably priced too.
If you have a small budget and want a reliable electric scooter for buzzing around the streets on in your area then you can't go far wrong with the EcoSmart.
The big problem with this particular electric scooter is that its motor at the back sticks out from the platform and gets pretty hot, so is actually fairly dangerous.
At the end of the day it is going to be used by an adult anyway, this scooter is most definitely not for children to use at all.
The scooter is pretty nippy actually with a top speed of 20 MPH, it can take an adults weight up to 220 pounds, it does actually go up hills really good too.
The charge time is a bit of a let down, you will have to wait twelve hours for it to be ready to ride again from a flat battery.
This electric scooter only has one hand operated brake, which is at the rear of the scooter. The brakes work really well and are effective at stopping the scooter quickly from its top speed of 20 MPH.
Is this the best electric scooter to buy? For the money yes, I give it a good 4 out of 5 rating because the price is very low compared to other street legal models today in the UK and USA.
At the other end of the scale, money wise I mean, we have the EcoReco M5 electric scooter, this is the best electric scooter on two wheels that money can buy.
The scooter is lightweight, it folds down small unlike the EcoSmart and has front and rear brakes. I suppose you really do only get what you pay for with electric scooters.
The scooter has a top speed of 20 MPH and is a lot smaller that the EcoSmart Razor scooter. The Razor model is more for older people to use for zipping down to the shops on.
The EcoReco M5 can take a max weight of 240 pounds and is really well made despite it's small fragile appearance.
This electric scooter for adults street legal has a small enough motor to not cross any laws in the UK or the USA, you can ride safe in the knowledge that it is legal to do so.
We give this electric scooter a 5 out of 5 star rating because it is absolutely perfect in appearance and is ride specs, it's expensive, but worth the money for sure.
Which is the best electric scooter for you?
The best electric scooter for adults street legal for you all depends on what money you have to spend, if you have a big budget then most definitely go for the EcoReco, it's cool and functions the best with a short 4 hours charge time.
Be sure to do your research before you go ahead and buy an electric scooter, it's a lot of money wasted if you get this decision wrong.
