Being 77 years young an e-scooter with a seat was a must, but needed to do some mods. Supposedly if you are 55+ advised not to use a standup e-scooter. Comfortably seated with extended foot rests i'm riding a 'hog' e-scooter :wink:
85% of travel is level terrain, 15% is slight inclines. The 350w motor is sufficient for nearby runs to: Grocery store; Scenic lake w/swimming, picnic, playground; Library; Post Office; McD's. Total load is 220 lbs of 275 Lb maximum load. The 7"x12" cargo platform is perfect size for grocery bag (see 1st photo). Backpack for my Chromebook, etc.
The fold down $90 Ninebot seat is for Segway ES1/ES2/ES3. Need to saw out a 5"x7"x1/4" piece of Masonite to put between seat post bottom flange and Turboant X7 Pro platform. Foldable seat flange needed to be raised just high enough (1/4"), so the two Ninebot plastic wedges could be securely tightened against X7 tapered under side frame.
Also decided to tap the other 4 holes to take 3/8" UNF set screws. Needed to slightly enlarge those 4 holes with a 21/64 drill bit otherwise was too much of a tapping struggle not to stripe threads. Another four 1/2" long UNF allen set screws. Now the seat post flange is firmly secured to Turboant X7 Pro durable platform (see 2nd closeup photo).
Needed an e-scooter with removable battery. Use 'Eco' (1st) speed about 40% and 3rd about 20% of time. Really like the cruise function. Although it's a kickstart e-scooter it's easy to get it going when seated. Another reason I decided to purchase it was all the replacement parts available. Ordered a handlebar mirror that's easy to attach and detach.
