Gotrax just released their first electric scooter a while back, the Gotrax Glider<\/a>. I did initially test it back at release and now I\u2019ve gotten my hands on one to make a more thorough review.<\/p>\n Design-wise it does look a lot like many other scooters on the market. I know for a fact that it uses thttps:\/\/gotrax.com\/shop\/electric-scooters\/glider\/#a_aid=envyhe same factory that I do for my electric scooter brand back in Sweden. I also know that the aftersales and the support service at Gotrax<\/a> are great<\/strong> which means less to worry about.<\/p>\n Enough said, let\u2019s go take it for a spin and see what it\u2019s all about!<\/p>\n At first sight, it might not look like much due to its slick design but it actually boasts a 250W hub motor mounted inside the front wheel, giving it enough power to move my 171 lbs at a speed of 16 mph<\/strong>. However, the speed diminishes after you\u2019ve lost around 50% of the battery power. At that point, it only reaches about 10-12 mph. A decrease in top speed is something to be expected as battery power falls.<\/p>\nReview<\/h2>\n
