    Jump bikes (rental bikes) have a keyed locking...nut...or something, on the ends of the axles on their front driven bikes. My Google-fu has failed me, and can't find anything comparable for sale. What good ways are there to keep them from being tampered with?

    Hoverboard vs e bike battery and charger?

    Hi, new to the forum. In terms of a charger, is there any difference besides amps and volts? For example, a 42v 2a hoverboard charger should be fine for a 36v 15ah battery, yeah? Now... Why doesn't the hoverboard battery have a charge plug separate from the discharge plug like an e bike...
