Scooter Size Chart
一般に, it is recommended that you measure the distance from the ground to the height of a person’s hips as well as the height of your belly button, and then find the scooter that is between the height of the hips and the belly button. The experience is best at this point.

Why Should I Pick the Right Height?
- Safety: If the height of the scooter is not suitable, it may lead to incorrect posture while riding, which may easily cause fatigue and instability, and even increase the risk of falling.
- Comfort: An electric scooter that suits your height can support a long ride and improve comfort.
Considerations
What are some things to consider when choosing a motorized scooter for your height? Since the handlebar height cannot be adjusted manually, the following points can be used as a guide:
- Generally speaking, a height between your hips and belly button is optimal when standing on the scooter.
- If you need to ride for long periods of time, it is recommended to purchase a higher handlebar. Taller handlebars are closer to your belly button to comfortably maintain a more upright position and reduce stress on your back.
- If you are into stunts, you should opt for a shorter, lighter scooter and the handlebars should be located near the waistband to allow for more maneuvers in the air.
Points for Selection
一般に, your height will determine whether you need a sturdier, larger frame scooter. The taller you are, the wider your limbs will have to spread out when riding the scooter.
After picking the right height, various factors should be considered next, 含む:
モーター
|
The higher the motor power, the higher the load/climbing/power. For daily commuting on flat ground or small hills, a power range of 250W to 350W is generally recommended, while in areas with steeper hills, a power range of 500W or more is considered.
|
Top speed
|
Determining how fast you can ride, commercially available city cars are generally limited to a maximum speed of 20 時速マイル.
|
Range
|
Determines how far you can ride. Typically, the range is between 10 と 30 kilometers.
|
Brake system
|
A good braking system ensures personal safety. Braking systems are categorized as follows
|
Tire
|
Choose the right type and size of tire for your usage and needs for better handling and comfort. The larger the tire size, the greater the safety.
Tires are classified as follows:
Solid tires: will not blow out, no need to inflate, easy to use, but less comfortable on bumpy roads.
Pneumatic tires: have better shock absorption and comfort for long-distance riding, but require regular inspection and inflation, and there is a risk of puncture.
|
サスペンション
|
Used for vibration damping, in single and double suspension.
|
ライト
|
The lighting system of an electric scooter usually consists of a headlight, a taillight, and a blinker. The headlight is used to illuminate the road ahead to ensure the safety of the rider. The tail light is used to alert vehicles and pedestrians behind to avoid accidents. The flashing light improves the visibility of the rider at night or in low visibility conditions.
|
Load
|
Check the manufacturer’s weight limits for motorized scooters and choose one that can carry the weight of the items you need to carry for safety and stability. Don’t forget to account for your own weight.
|
Waterproof level
|
The IP rating indicates the resistance of the motorized scooter to dust, water and moisture. The higher the IP rating, the more resistant it is to water and moisture.
|
Body materials and construction
|
Choose strong and durable materials and construction to ensure the stability and safety of your electric scooter. Aluminum alloy, carbon fiber, magnesium alloy, iron and wood are some of the materials’ build quality.

よくある質問
What is the best position for riding?
Keep your feet apart when standing, one in front of the other, as this increases stability when riding, just like a skateboard or snowboard. Avoid standing with your feet parallel on a skateboard, which can lead to loss of balance. You can change your standing position while riding to increase stability.
