Segway ES4. Used to go on sale for 499 but haven't seen that in awhile

I have the xaiomi mi 365, which is great on a budget but the es4 is significantly better at $150 more (also not sure you can get the mi 365 for 350 anymore either). Biggest con of mi 365 is the air tires, the es4 has solid tires with the shocks actually built into the scooter.

That's renewed and the bird version doesn't fold.

You can also get the ES2 which is often on sale for $399 and add an extra battery giving it basically the same power and range of the ES4.

anyone know if the 220 pound weight limit sets on scooters is exact or can someone that weights 260-270 use it as well? specifically talking about the Gotrax XR Elite

You can use them at any weight. Speed will be reduced and battery will die much faster
