Hiboy S2 Lite Electric Scooter - 6.5" Solid Tires - Up to 10.6 Miles Long-Range & 13 MPH Portable Folding Commuting Kick-Start Boost Scooter for Teens

The media could not be loaded.  The first thing I will say about this is that the S2 scooter is slightly smaller than those scooters you may rent on the side of the street. That being said, for an average size adult, this will work pretty well. I can hold handle bars comfortable and stand on the scooter comfortably. The scooter is pretty well built. There are light in the front and back. The front part will actually glow blue as well as have a powerful led headlight for night time riding. There is also a brake light in the back so if you happen to press either one of the two brakes it will light up. These are fairly bright lights so you will be see when riding at night. You are not going to need much assembly. All you need to do is open the scooter by pulling and locking the front part up and then attaching the handle bars. The handles bars are easily screwed into place. It holds pretty well. It says you can tighten it with an allen wrench but I could NOT find it among the tools it say it has. I am not sure if the instructions were suppose to say not included or it was just mis-packaged. Luckily for me I had my own set so it was easy to tighten the lock so the front would not collapse when you are riding. It is locked by a latch and it does take some force to pop the latch off. If you are have to lift the scooter for any reason, DO NOT let it swing left and right. If you happen to have your ankles near there, it will hurt like hell when it hits. This is not a light scooter. You can carry after you collapse it and there is a lock that keeps the scooter from opening after you lock it into place. This is not a key lock or anything so it is not a theft prevention. There is really nothing that will keep this from being stolen as there is no key of any kind. The wheels are made of rubber so I am unsure what to replace them with then they become worn down but I will cross that bride when I get to it. It does not look like it requires any air in the tire nor is there any tube to pump but I will still avoid nails if possible. There is also a nice kick stand so you are able to stand the scooter up and there is a small bell on the left side so you are alert others around you when you approach or need to pass. The charger looks like on of those laptop chargers. It shows an LED light when it is charging.On to controls, the handles have the accelerator on the left and brakes on the right. You also have another break which is like a normal scooter. It is just the pedal on the back. When trying to break do not press too hard on the button or pedal. It is really sensitive and can actually cause you to fall off the scooter. The accelerator does take time to get used to if you have never rode an electric scooter. The first thing I will say is that you need to be in motion before the accelerator will take over. It will NOT work if you are stationary. One push off forward will cause the accelerator to work. The next thing is that you do not want to push the accelerator down all the way. It changes speed very fast so you feel more like you are being yanked along. I would recommend get used to it first so you know how to position yourself. There is more than enough room to comfortable put both feet flat on your scooter so you do not have to feel tired standing on one leg. You can also easily move around on the board with the right balance. The scooter is turned on by pressing the button on top. It will turn on the indicator to show battery life and speed. If you press the button again, it will turn the LED lights on and off. If you want to turn the scooter off, you need to press and hold the button.In terms of performance, this scooter does pretty well. It actually was able to travel about ten to twelve miles before needing a recharge. This can actually go down if you happen to have the lights on so plan for that if you are riding at night. In terms of speed, it says it can reach up to thirteen MPH but even at max acceleration I was only able to hit nine MPH at least according to the system. If I were going down hill that be a different story but it is not recommend you accelerate during down hill and to control your speed so you do not lose control of the scooter. I am personally OK with the speed, but some people may not be so be aware that the max speed seems to be more towards nine miles per hour. This works well on the side walk and not so much on the street. There is no shock absorber so all the vibration from the street road causes my hand to hurt or get tired. It feels smoother when you ride it on the side walk instead. It also does not have a recharge from what I can tell from the spinning wheel. What I mean to say is that many electric devices actually are able to recharge from the turning of the wheel but this does not seem to do that. Speaking of charging, charge time varies but I see it at an average of five to six hours to fully charge. I would recommend charging it to full and completely draining it the first few times.Overall I think this is a really nice scooter to have if you are trying to find other means of transportation. It will not take me very far but I am able to travel to UPS, grocery store, and do some small errands without needing to take my car out. I do have to lug this into the store but it is not too bad. I normally just throw it into a shopping cart when I am at the grocery store. This scooter fits for pretty much any adult although I still recommend wearing a helmet as any scooter you can lose control over. The LED light is a nice color and bright so you see it at night. It is fairly easy to operate. It does not take too much to assemble. You could pretty much have this assembled in less than five minutes. The only downside is that it does not reach the speed it says it would on the acceleration alone even on a flat surface. Also I am unsure what will happen when the tires wear out.

We have had a blast using this scooter!! Battery life is good, ride is smooth, and speed is perfect for our kids.

We bought this scooter in 2020 for a Christmas gift for our son. He's been on it pretty much nonstop ever since. One of the biggest selling points for us was the lights that it has---it has lights on the deck, the riser and a headlight on the handlebars, as well as a functional tail light. The scooter is SOLID. Well-built. My son is not the lightest touch, he can be rough at times and this thing seems durable.In early August of this year (2021) we had an issue w/ the scooter. My son was riding it one minute, and was pushing it up the street the next telling me it stopped working. Sure enough, it had stopped working and I couldn't get it to work, either. I contacted Hiboy support via email and about a week later they got in touch with me and helped me troubleshoot the issue. The rep (Sandy) was spot on with what the issue was. The scooter was still under warranty, so they shipped me a new handlebar (turns out the brake controller had failed and was stuck in the engaged position) and provided clear installation instructions for me to replace it---less than 10 minutes of work and it was as good as new. It's a moving thing and I get it that sometimes things fail, so as long as they back it up I'm cool with it. I think it says a lot about a company as to how they treat you AFTER a sale. So I have had minimal trouble with this device. My son loves it and when I DID have an issue, Hiboy backed up the product. I'm honestly considering buying the adult one so that I can ride with him, but that might need to wait until I lose a few pounds.

UPDATE:WORST PRODUCT EVER!After first batterie replaced, a second one was replaced due to same issue, then error again- replaced the part in the bottom that's connected to the batterie twice, worked shortly, again broke, replaced the wire in the handlebar, worked shortly, broke again, replace throttle still not working. I am so done. While customer service was always nice and quick, they should have just replaced the scooter at the beginning instead I was sent over 6 parts to replace. Warranty out the window. I purchased ASURION insurance, well that expired a month ago and they do not want to cover it either, although I can prove the issue has been going for a long time! Never again Hi boy and never again Asurion. over 300 bucks out the window for a product I may used 3 months altogether. Trash it is now.Amazon delivery as always fast and with no complications. Scooter arrived assembled. Looks great, drives great, the blue Light is an eye catcher. About 6 months later it started to stop in the middle of a ride although battery fully charge overnight. Then batterie started to not fully load. Contacted Hiboy directly, got immediate response, asking for exact issue, explained and they said it must be the batterie. They shipped it for free. Replacing was super easy and now it works again like a charm! Now that is what I call customer Service especially when you pay so much.Thx.
