So I did it! I took advantage of the black Friday sale at fluid free ride and picked up the Apollo Explore….$500 off…seems to hit everything I have been looking for in a commuter …decent speed, smoother ride…good lighting to be seen ….and a heavier payload….I’m 220 ish…my current scooter is a vene sc-1 city…they only made for a short time and now it no longer exists..it has about 720 miles on it and the battery doesn’t seem to really hold a charge for as long as it should..so I hope this one does the trick for me
