How does the Small Lightweight Electric Scooter feel when driving on different roads?
Publish Time: 2024-10-16
Here are the driving experiences of the Small Lightweight Electric Scooter on different roads:
1. Asphalt road:
This is one of the most suitable roads for electric scooters. Asphalt roads are usually relatively flat, and electric scooters can drive very smoothly on them, with almost no obvious bumps. The friction between the wheels and the road is moderate, and both acceleration and braking can get good feedback, allowing riders to easily control the speed. Moreover, on this kind of road, the range of the electric scooter will not be greatly affected, and it can maintain a relatively stable driving state.
2. Concrete road:
Generally speaking, the smoothness of concrete roads is slightly inferior to that of asphalt roads. If it is a newly paved concrete road, the driving experience is not much different from that of asphalt roads, but if it is a cement road that has been used for a long time and has a certain amount of wear and tear, there may be some small potholes or cracks. When the electric scooter passes through these places, the rider will feel a slight vibration, but this vibration is usually within an acceptable range and will not have much impact on the riding experience.
3. Brick and stone pavement:
Brick and stone pavement is usually paved with bricks or slabs. The flatness of this kind of pavement is poor, and the gaps between bricks will bring certain challenges to the driving of electric scooters. When riding on brick and stone pavement, riders will clearly feel the shaking and bumping of the body, and need to keep balance at all times, otherwise it is easy to fall. In addition, brick and stone pavement will increase the wear of the wheels and reduce the service life of the electric scooter.
4. Gravel road:
The road conditions of gravel roads are more complicated, and the road surface is covered with stones of different sizes. When the electric scooter is driving on this kind of road, the wheels will constantly collide with the stones, which will not only cause greater vibrations, but also affect the speed and stability of driving. If the stones are large or sharp, they may also puncture the tires, causing problems such as air leakage or blowout. Therefore, when driving on gravel roads, riders need to be extra careful and try to reduce the speed to avoid accidents.
5. Dirt road:
The unhardened dirt road has unstable road conditions and may have potholes, bumps, mud, etc. On dry dirt roads, electric scooters will raise a lot of dust when driving, affecting the rider's vision and breathing; on dirt roads after rain, the road surface will become muddy and slippery, and the wheels will easily fall into mud pits, making driving difficult. However, if the tires of the electric scooter have good anti-skid performance, driving on dirt roads can also be fun.
6. Downhill road:
When going downhill, the speed of the electric scooter will naturally increase, which puts higher requirements on the rider's braking control ability. If the braking system is not sensitive enough or the rider operates improperly, it is easy to get into danger. In addition, the vibration and impact force when going downhill will be greater than when driving on a flat road, requiring the rider to maintain good balance and stability.
7. Uphill road:
When going uphill, the electric scooter needs to overcome the effect of gravity, and there are certain requirements for the power and torque of the motor. If the electric scooter is not powerful enough, it will be very strenuous when going uphill, or even unable to climb the hill. And during the uphill process, the rider needs to keep the body leaning forward to increase the grip of the front wheel to prevent the scooter from sliding backwards.
