Verified purchase
Bought for city commuting on flat terrain (hills would be a no-go, the brake is almost useless), rider weight with luggage is just under 95kg. The scooter is almost 4x cheaper than a Micro (which I wore out after about 1,000 km / 2 years). So the choice was a pragmatic one based on disposability (if I have to bin this one in 2 years, it'll still be economically sound). So far, I've done a test ride of between 10–20 km (on both good quality and bumpier asphalt, and paving blocks). I appreciate that the underside doesn't scrape on dropped kerbs. You can even go over smaller holes (the suspension handles it), but of course, it's not a proper 'shock absorber' (as stated in the description), so every time the weight comes off it, there's a metallic bang – in practice, it rattles even on rougher asphalt (if it holds up mechanically, it'll 'just' be about the noise).
After being unable to adjust the play in the headset bearings (handlebars), I discovered an unbelievable design flaw: the cups are supposed to be firmly pressed into the head tube – but here they weren't – they had about a millimetre of play. Sure, it's cheap / assembly is easier, but the resulting durability and comfort... ouch. Oh well, I managed to sort it out somehow.
Price.
Good at handling uneven surfaces (higher ground clearance).
Simple and functional folding mechanism design.
The suspension works fine.
The front suspension rattles on uneven surfaces.
Incredibly shoddy head tube design.
The brake hardly works (but I expected that).
