Electric Scooters UK - electric powered scooterThe electric powered scooter craze is here and many first time buyers of electric scooters are finding it difficult to buy the right electric scooters. Your first electric scooters purchase can be challenging because it’s such a new industry and there are allot of poorly constructed electric scooters. Unlike many products we purchase today there isn’t always a local store where you can purchase one. Most electric powered scooters are made in Asia and the big three are China, Taiwan and Thailand. In my experience electric scooters purchased from Taiwan are the best and use similar manufacturing processes as we do here in the uk. Their quality control is excellent and their overall performance of their electric scooters is superb. Thailand is 2nd and has a big customer with the Currie line. My least favorite electric scooters are built in China and for the most part it really shows. Look at a Chinese made electric scooter next to a comparable Taiwanese scooter and the differences are obvious. Poor welds, cheap quality bolts and nuts, mis-aligned drive lines and a host of other issues plague the Chinese built electric scooters. For the inexperienced buyer they may look good on the surface but once you have owned one of these electric scooters it becomes real apparent that these are not designed to last. What you might save up front you will spend in sweat, frustration and cash to keep this electric powered scooter up and running. |
