Mobility devices gaining popularity in Singapore

2/19/2016

Personal mobility devices like electric scooters, unicycles and hoverboards are becoming a common sight on the streets. Lightweight and portable, such devices are a convenient and time-saving solution for travelling short distances for commute or leisure.
​

Costing anywhere from a few hundred dollars to coming with four-figure price tags, affordability has been the main draw for consumers. For the uninitiated, here’s a quick look at key differences between the various devices.

E-Scooter

One of the first mobility devices to become popular, the e-scooter scores big on versatility, with superior maximum speeds, distance covered on a single charge and maximum climbing angles. While it’s the bulkiest of the lot, the ability to attach a seat to the base means you can ride everywhere without becoming tired.

The NextDrive electric scooter is currently the World’s lightest electric scooter weighing in at an astounding 6.5kg! Thats almost as light as some manual kick scooters. We had a ride on it for 15km and though the ride was rough as can be expected from its 5 inch wheels, the flexibility of the carbon fiber deck did absorb alot of the vibration. The motor was surprisingly strong too and gentle slopes were not a problem with our 70-80kg body load.<a href="www.7jo.com/product/lightweight-electric-scooter/">lightweight electric scooter</a>

I'm amazed with the electric roller skates! It's like we really live in the future. I think that these mobility devices will be a great alternative to gasoline pumping vehicles, especially on short travels. It's wonderful how people come up with these ideas.

Wonderful blog!
