<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nReview<\/h1>\n\n\n\nOverview<\/h3>\n\n\n\n When I bought our first Pocket mod electric scooter our kids were stoked and to be honest so was I. I had been waiting for them to test it for years, but due to their young age, I\u2019ve had to put it on hold for a while. Well, time was finally here and we got the package.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The first thing I noticed with the scooter was that the handlebar was a bit tricky to get into place during the assembly process. I\u2019ve mounted my fair share of handlebars before and still, this one was a bit difficult. I estimate that someone with less experience can do the whole assembly process in around 20 minutes, give or take a few.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The scooter has a really good top speed of 15 mph, which on a normal scooter would have been too fast for my kids\u00a0at the age of 6 and 4. But on the pocket mod, you will be much more comfortable knowing your kids are safely seated while riding. Thus making it easier for them to keep balance. You don\u2019t have to be on your toes all the time because if they hit an obstacle, like for example a pothole, it doesn\u2019t cause them to lose balance as easily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The chain-driven motor is powered by a 24V\/7Ah lead-acid battery that can provide your kids with a riding distance of around 10 miles on a single charge. However, it does take a bit of time to recharge the scooter and you should expect to charge it for around 12 hrs initially and then around 8 each time after that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
My oldest boy weighs around 50 lbs and can get a solid 12+ miles out of the scooter even if he rides it very hard. We have a pretty steep hill here in our backyard and he has no problem at all riding the scooter all the way to the top.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is said to be able to handle 150 lbs and after testing it myself for a while I can approve. Even though it was much slow it did haul my 173 lbs along just fine. I wouldn\u2019t expect too much distance if I were riding on it though.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
