RickZeeland's Experience

"If you’re looking for an electric scooter, you can’t go wrong with the NIU NQi GTS ER, though you should note that, as the battery is stored underneath the seat, storage can be limited. The scooter has three different modes: e-save, dynamic and sport, depending on how fast you want to go and how far you need to travel" according to Bikesure review. See More
