The advantage of large wheels is that you don't get any wobble at high speed so you don't need a steering damper. Also, the large wheels makes it easier to go over bumps, pot holes, and curbs. The short stem also provides rigidity and stability. This scooter is perfect for the city. I really hope other manufacturers start making large wheel scooters.

this isn't true and is 100% dependent on geometry, which is not driven by wheel size at all, and is determined by headtube angle. The city has 2 things going for it that make it more stable: The base of the platform was engineered to be closer to coplanar with the axles, and the headtube is at far more of a slack angle. A Harley and a motoGP bike have the same front wheel size, but one requires a steering damper to combat wobble because one is engineered to have much less headtube angle because of the steering response it requires. Scooters don't really need snappy steering, and all of them should be engineered with a much more slack headtube angle.

😎👍...Dan I seen you ride a large variety of different Scooters give a lot of great accurate review and helped some companies make better 2nd. version of some of the best scooter around but I must say this dualtron City looks tailored made for you, bet you been hearing that a lot . Great Review wait till Ramier reviews it ... I always tell them REVIEW EVERYTHING 🤣. It's going to be a Big Dog approved scooter for sure but right after I want to see Paul jump on the City I'm curious to see how he looks on it and his take because I think this particular dualtron is a Tall Person Scooter at least in looks.

Hey Dad, I recently bought a City, It is my first scooter so I don t have any experience, and I found that I have wobble after 40 km/h but not all the time, sometimes I reach 70 km/h with no problem, and the stem locking sistem and everything is rock solid, no cracks, no movement, everything perfect. I may think that is s my position because I oftenly do not lean backwards when I accelerate or when I drive with high speeds. Could you help me with some tips? Could it be something mechanical, waranty related? Or maybe just my driving style and unexperience? I also drove a friends much smaller dualtron popular and no wobble, in comparison. Thank you!

@@SCOOTOPIAbyOhManDan so how are the dualtron and mini motors customer service definitely interested in a a dualtron but afraid of the stem creeking I love the led and the remote so that would lead to finding something with range and speed
For riders who enjoy both scoots & ebikes.. the 15in wheels on This cross over Must be a real advantage for off roading Nothing worse than bopping alone & suddenly hitting wet sand or thick mud on 10in wheels.. Ouch 🤕
Hey @Up Cycle Electra... I'm not one who take my Scooters Off Roading (I like to keep my Scooters in pristine condition, like New. I KNOW... my OCD, don't judge me) The CITY is in a CLASS all its Own. It is truly a game changer, nothing really out there to compare. It is a REAL JOY to Ride and conquers ALL the CITY challenges Riders once had with compromised ROAD Conditions. The Jury is still out for those who love Off Roading their Scooters (I would NEVER take ANY of my 32 Power Scooters Off Roading) maybe SOON enough, we will definitely hear another horror story of how someone took this amazing CITY dweller, Off Road and destroyed it LOL! I think the perfect Off Road (two wheel) Scooter is the Mosphera ($9000+)... and the best by far (four wheel) Scooter is The EZ Raider HD4 ($19,000+). There are some less expensive choices out there but they are not really made for Off Roading, so i wont name them but I think you know which they are. Be SAFE out there my Scootopian Fam...

I gotta lotta New stuff Coming your WAY. So Stay Tuned Buddy. Actually they aren't that short Buddy. They just made the Steering Pole shorter because of all the space between the Headset and Swing Arm. The Bar is at 50" from the ground and 38" from the Deck. Most people want TALL but the perfect height for your Bar is if you were standing on your Deck with your arms down, the Bar should hit right at your navel or your arms at 110° to 130° angle. That elbow bend will give you the safest and most controllable position for riding an eScooter.
Looks like an amazing scooter. I'd encourage people to try it out before you buy... the handling must be very different compared to 10-inch tire scooters.
Hey @Nuo Y... thanks for visiting Scootopia. If you like my Videos, be sure to SUBSCRIBE to my Channel so that you don't miss any of my Power Scooter Content. I gotta lotta New stuff Coming your WAY. So Stay Tuned Buddy. It actually handles real well... I own 32 Power Scooters and this handles as well and even better than my $10,000 dollar Scooter(s). It's pretty nimble, very responsive, stable, safe and comfy.
It is just long enough for my size 14 feet. They fit comfortably on the Deck but it could be an inch or two longer and one inch wider but you don't feel cramped or lacking Deck space if you have a large foot as well.
Thanks Brother... I can't wait to get home. Been on the Road for two months doing this Tour and I can smell REST close by (well, I'm sure I won't be resting like that) but I will get to open up all the new Scooters that arrived at my Office and will be doing a lotta Scooter Videos.

Hey @Sam Proto... thanks for visiting Scootopia. If you like my Videos, be sure to SUBSCRIBE to my Channel so that you don't miss any of my Power Scooter Content. I gotta lotta New stuff Coming your WAY. So Stay Tuned Buddy. I don't support the Bronco Xtreme anymore, because the Owner of Bronco Motors refused to take care of customers whom they shipped eighteen defective units to (instead, they chose to ship Controllers and step down units to unskilled Consumers). When my controller arrived, it too was defective. Of all the Manufacturers who had major problems with their Scooters in 2021, Bronco Motors was the ONLY one who chose not to take care of the Customers with defective units. Since i buy ALL my Scooters like every other Consumer, i only support reputable Manufacturers and Vendors who take care of Customers and provide Safe, Quality Scooters. I had to pay RION ($1700 dollars making my Scooter a $7,000 dollar Scooter) to remove ALL my defective Bronco components and replace them with high quality RION Components. Now, I have a totally different Scooter. A Hyper Scooter I now call... The RIONized "X" bronco. I no longer speak about bronco (as I don't trust the Manufacturer because I know they DO NOT CARE ABOUT Consumer Safety or will NEVER stand behind their Product) As for the Dualtron X2 (My Favorite eScooter out of The 32 Power Scooters I've Purchased and Ride) There is no comparison to the DTX2 on the Market ANYWHERE. I am still looking for the Scooter that can compete and BEAT the Dualtron X2 (apples to apples) and become my new Favorite. Yes, there are Scooters out there that may have a better feature here and a better feature there, but when you compile ALL the Scooters' Data, The Dualtron X2, still comes out on TOP of ALL Electric Scooters. The Dualtron CITY is like the Dualtron X Brand, in the sense that they ARE in a CLASS all by their selves. There is nothing out there to compare to The Dualtron CITY. It is soooo different and the RIDE is so welcoming, pleasant, assuring, comfortable and Safe. It just pushes all the buttons to WHAT any eNthusiast would identify as a REAL CITY Commuter It's big wheels allow Safer CITY Rides (when it comes to compromised ROAD conditions), it has enough torque to pull hills, enough speed to satisfy the occasional rush and/or need, the Range is on another level (especially with the Swappable Battery that allows 100 miles of Range), it's nimble, has great throttle management and super FUN to RIDE. The CITY gets tons of attention on the streets and allow experienced Riders to talk to all sorts of pedestrians about Micro Mobility (recruiting many new Buyers, Users and future Scootopians to the PEV Family) I have the same affect when Riding my Dualtron X2 and the RION... people flock around them asking many questions. I TRULY think EVERY eNthusiast should HAVE or ADD The CITY to their collection of Scooters. It is a MUST HAVE CITY Commuter (nothing like it on the road) it can definitely be a first time buyer's first and last purchase, they'll be that happy. ONLY the NEED for Hyper Speed will drive them to add or buy another eScooter.
@@SCOOTOPIAbyOhManDan ok thanks for the info. The dualtron x2 is the all around best I got that. But does the dualtron city handle better drive less scetchy or feal safer to ride than the dualtron x2?
@@bigsammy991 I wouldn't say, it feels Safer (they both probably tie for Safety) I don't know about the sketchy part but it is more nimble of course, and definitely more portable. As for the overall Ride, that's tough between the two, Because they both are real joys to Ride... which one will I grab faster for a nice city Ride, probably the CITY. Just a quick, grab and GO kinda Scoot. They're both real STABLE probably the X2 is more stable because of its weight, wide patch on the ground, robust wide steering pole, larger deck, motorcycle shocks and power to keep it fluid. But on the other hand, the build, size, weight, wheel size, smooth throttle control, short steering pole, torque and speed make the CITY a formidable competitor for ANY City Commuter. I think if we compared them both to Scooters in their CLASS... they BOTH would win out on TOP for sure. They are just both well built Scooters that I think will stand the test of time in their Classes and reign supreme for some time.

There is actually no comparison between the two (and yes [as a Power Scooter Guy] the DTX2 is worth double the value) You have to compare the CITY to Scooters in its Class. There are barely more formidable Scooters that can compare on one or two features but apples to apples There is no Scooter that can compare overall to the DTX2. With the DTX2 you are literally getting the KING of Electric Scooters. So that says a lot about the unique build and capacity of the CITY.

What a lot of people are missing here is one of the reasons why bicycles and motorcycles have better stability. Yes geometry has something to do with it, but larger wheels like these generate a much stronger, more stabilizing centrifugal force. Tiny wheels don't generate as much centrifugal force, plus the center of gravity is high on a standup scooter. This gives all the weight a longer lever to counteract any centrifugal force increasing instability. Manufacturers should be heading in this direction. I'd like to see the tires a little wider as well.
Hey @savagemako17... thanks for Visiting Scootopia. Well SAID... you hit it right on the head, and yes Manufacturers should be heading in this direction combined with several other features from different Scooters but you're totally right about the stability.

@@SCOOTOPIAbyOhManDan Hi Dan, thanks for the reply. It means a lot. I lived in San Rafael on and off for over 30 years. Moved out to North Carolina permanently a year and a half ago and have some great, new conditioned roads to ride on. Low traffic, maybe some golf carts, that's about it. I thought I'd get an electric SOMETHING to cruise the neighborhood with. I've ridden the limes and Birds in SF, but this is different. It would be my first stand up scooter and the City has my eye. I have an engineering background, so I have an idea how certain forces work on a vehicle like these scooters. None of that matters though, what matters is I'm getting on in years and will be 67 in the fall. I'm in decent shape, but still, a fall from one of these at speed could really screw me up, so I want to get a test ride on one of the more powerful scooters first and try it out. I know you can run on one single motor in the lower gear and never go faster than 20 mph. I've got to explore this. Any recommendations for gear? I have my motorcycle helmet to use, but how about elbow pads, knee pads. What's the best? Sorry for blabbing so much. I appreciate your reply. Take care bud.
Hey @savagemako17... thanks for Visiting Scootopia. I am a solid AlpineStar Gear wearer. I have tested and proven this Gear to really protect its wearers whenever they go down. It has saved me time and time again. Even this last fall where I had to get my first surgery. I usually walk away with no broken bones or damaged tendons, ligaments, skin, or muscle (usually higher speed falls) but this one slow speed fall did just what they do (deliver the worst injuries). I highly recommend AlpineStar Safety Gear, it cost more than mist but also works better than most, and offer the best comfort. You're also right, in that you can set or dial in most Power Beast Scooters to Ride at safe moderate speeds without the fear of all that power and speed catching you off guard. The bonus in thus us that as a person gets acclimated to the Acooter they can increase power and speed to their comfort levels as they grow with it.

Hey @ErwingVargas2272... thanks for visiting Scootopia. I hate to break this news to you Buddy but there are NO Scooters on the streets that are completely water resistant It is advised by ALL Scooter Companies "NOT to submerge, Ride in Rain, or subject your Scooter to ANY long direct water exposure" Scooters have experienced serious electrical shorts, damaged batteries, damaged Motors, and dry rot issues. The water ratings you see are only for small accidental water exposure and light sprinkles of water. Not intended to be ridden in and thru puddles of water or exposed to any sustained water. Even without those small water ratings... Dualtrons are still the best built, most durable and the most powerful and fastest Scooters on the Streets. I would not put too much stock in those small water ratings if I were you. We still have a long way if any... to go BEFORE ANY SCOOTER is water PROOF!! Most of the water ratings pertain to certain parts of the Scooters mentioned... like the display, wires dashboard components.

@@SCOOTOPIAbyOhManDan I understand this I mean it's pretty obvious nobody should ride electric scooter in the rain, but at least Nami has an IPX rating on it. Dualtron city has nothing, none no rating at all... Like Chris Rock said in one of his specials "lie to me Jerry lie to me!" at least put something on the box for $3499
I get your point@@erwingvargas2272... trust me when I tell you that companies put those ratings on their products because they know people don't fully understand the insignificance of it on certain items. Like on cellphones that Rating means a lot but not on Scooters because it doesn't address the value of water proofing in the minds of Scooter Consumers. We want water proofing so bad that if anyone mentions the smallest amount of surface protection we get lost in the sauce of "COVERED" and it just isn't Covered in the slightest amount. I just wanna be upfront with you Buddy. I am hoping that someone has a dream that Solves this for us and we wake up one day with a fully submersible water proof Scooter. That's the HOPE of us all for sure. It may happen because human beings are the most creative beings on the planet.

But I'm sure it will be somewhere around the 25mph range and the 1st setting around 15mph.
@@SCOOTOPIAbyOhManDan no problem, the video was really good. I just wish e scooter was legal here in London, then I’d buy something like this Dualtron city. It’s silly because we can rent e scooter and ride around London streets but we are not allowed to own our own and ride anywhere other then private land, if we own or have permission. Can get £300 fine e scooter taken and points on license. I do have 2 scooters but pretty cheap. Police don’t seem to bother me but I ride sensibly not on huge roads but I just can’t risk spending over £1000 while it’s illegal. My better scooter only goes 25mph and that’s so relaxing and fun plus it’s a pretty smooth ride but I can only imagine the joy or riding a Dualtron, wolf warrior/king etc. Anyway I’ll be sure to check out more of your videos.

Our industry should take a page out of the TESLA playbook and use TESLA Batteries and BMS format to shorten our charge times, promote healthier, longer life cycles and cooler temperatures.

Yeah a wider tire will give you more patch contact on the ground and more stability but it is a real joy to Ride just as it is Buddy.
The advantage of large wheels is that you don't get any wobble at high speed so you don't need a steering damper. Also, the large wheels makes it easier to go over bumps, pot holes, and curbs. The short stem also provides rigidity and stability. This scooter is perfect for the city. I really hope other manufacturers start making large wheel scooters.

this isn't true and is 100% dependent on geometry, which is not driven by wheel size at all, and is determined by headtube angle. The city has 2 things going for it that make it more stable: The base of the platform was engineered to be closer to coplanar with the axles, and the headtube is at far more of a slack angle. A Harley and a motoGP bike have the same front wheel size, but one requires a steering damper to combat wobble because one is engineered to have much less headtube angle because of the steering response it requires. Scooters don't really need snappy steering, and all of them should be engineered with a much more slack headtube angle.

Hey Dad, I recently bought a City, It is my first scooter so I don t have any experience, and I found that I have wobble after 40 km/h but not all the time, sometimes I reach 70 km/h with no problem, and the stem locking sistem and everything is rock solid, no cracks, no movement, everything perfect. I may think that is s my position because I oftenly do not lean backwards when I accelerate or when I drive with high speeds. Could you help me with some tips? Could it be something mechanical, waranty related? Or maybe just my driving style and unexperience? I also drove a friends much smaller dualtron popular and no wobble, in comparison.
Thank you!
Bought the Dualtron Eagle Pro but looking at the City with my other eye. Don't want the Eagle to get jealous. Haha.

@@SCOOTOPIAbyOhManDan so how are the dualtron and mini motors customer service definitely interested in a a dualtron but afraid of the stem creeking I love the led and the remote so that would lead to finding something with range and speed
For riders who enjoy both scoots & ebikes.. the 15in wheels on
This cross over Must be a real advantage for off roading
Nothing worse than bopping alone & suddenly hitting wet sand or thick mud on 10in wheels.. Ouch 🤕
Hey @Up Cycle Electra... I'm not one who take my Scooters Off Roading (I like to keep my Scooters in pristine condition, like New. I KNOW... my OCD, don't judge me)
The CITY is in a CLASS all its Own. It is truly a game changer, nothing really out there to compare. It is a REAL JOY to Ride and conquers ALL the CITY challenges Riders once had with compromised ROAD Conditions. The Jury is still out for those who love Off Roading their Scooters (I would NEVER take ANY of my 32 Power Scooters Off Roading) maybe SOON enough, we will definitely hear another horror story of how someone took this amazing CITY dweller, Off Road and destroyed it LOL!
I think the perfect Off Road (two wheel) Scooter is the Mosphera ($9000+)... and the best by far (four wheel) Scooter is The EZ Raider HD4 ($19,000+).
There are some less expensive choices out there but they are not really made for Off Roading, so i wont name them but I think you know which they are.

Actually they aren't that short Buddy. They just made the Steering Pole shorter because of all the space between the Headset and Swing Arm.
The Bar is at 50" from the ground and 38" from the Deck. Most people want TALL but the perfect height for your Bar is if you were standing on your Deck with your arms down, the Bar should hit right at your navel or your arms at 110° to 130° angle. That elbow bend will give you the safest and most controllable position for riding an eScooter.
Looks like an amazing scooter. I'd encourage people to try it out before you buy... the handling must be very different compared to 10-inch tire scooters.

It actually handles real well... I own 32 Power Scooters and this handles as well and even better than my $10,000 dollar Scooter(s). It's pretty nimble, very responsive, stable, safe and comfy.
For as big as it is the deck should've been longer. Other than that she's real nice👌✌
I agree
It is just long enough for my size 14 feet. They fit comfortably on the Deck but it could be an inch or two longer and one inch wider but you don't feel cramped or lacking Deck space if you have a large foot as well.

I don't support the Bronco Xtreme anymore, because the Owner of Bronco Motors refused to take care of customers whom they shipped eighteen defective units to (instead, they chose to ship Controllers and step down units to unskilled Consumers). When my controller arrived, it too was defective. Of all the Manufacturers who had major problems with their Scooters in 2021, Bronco Motors was the ONLY one who chose not to take care of the Customers with defective units. Since i buy ALL my Scooters like every other Consumer, i only support reputable Manufacturers and Vendors who take care of Customers and provide Safe, Quality Scooters.
I had to pay RION ($1700 dollars making my Scooter a $7,000 dollar Scooter) to remove ALL my defective Bronco components and replace them with high quality RION Components. Now, I have a totally different Scooter. A Hyper Scooter I now call... The RIONized "X" bronco. I no longer speak about bronco (as I don't trust the Manufacturer because I know they DO NOT CARE ABOUT Consumer Safety or will NEVER stand behind their Product)
As for the Dualtron X2 (My Favorite eScooter out of The 32 Power Scooters I've Purchased and Ride) There is no comparison to the DTX2 on the Market ANYWHERE. I am still looking for the Scooter that can compete and BEAT the Dualtron X2 (apples to apples) and become my new Favorite.
Yes, there are Scooters out there that may have a better feature here and a better feature there, but when you compile ALL the Scooters' Data, The Dualtron X2, still comes out on TOP of ALL Electric Scooters.
The Dualtron CITY is like the Dualtron X Brand, in the sense that they ARE in a CLASS all by their selves.
There is nothing out there to compare to The Dualtron CITY. It is soooo different and the RIDE is so welcoming, pleasant, assuring, comfortable and Safe. It just pushes all the buttons to WHAT any eNthusiast would identify as a REAL CITY Commuter
It's big wheels allow Safer CITY Rides (when it comes to compromised ROAD conditions), it has enough torque to pull hills, enough speed to satisfy the occasional rush and/or need, the Range is on another level (especially with the Swappable Battery that allows 100 miles of Range), it's nimble, has great throttle management and super FUN to RIDE.
The CITY gets tons of attention on the streets and allow experienced Riders to talk to all sorts of pedestrians about Micro Mobility (recruiting many new Buyers, Users and future Scootopians to the PEV Family) I have the same affect when Riding my Dualtron X2 and the RION... people flock around them asking many questions.
I TRULY think EVERY eNthusiast should HAVE or ADD The CITY to their collection of Scooters. It is a MUST HAVE CITY Commuter (nothing like it on the road) it can definitely be a first time buyer's first and last purchase, they'll be that happy. ONLY the NEED for Hyper Speed will drive them to add or buy another eScooter.
@@SCOOTOPIAbyOhManDan ok thanks for the info. The dualtron x2 is the all around best I got that. But does the dualtron city handle better drive less scetchy or feal safer to ride than the dualtron x2?
@@bigsammy991 I wouldn't say, it feels Safer (they both probably tie for Safety) I don't know about the sketchy part but it is more nimble of course, and definitely more portable.
As for the overall Ride, that's tough between the two, Because they both are real joys to Ride... which one will I grab faster for a nice city Ride, probably the CITY. Just a quick, grab and GO kinda Scoot. They're both real STABLE probably the X2 is more stable because of its weight, wide patch on the ground, robust wide steering pole, larger deck, motorcycle shocks and power to keep it fluid. But on the other hand, the build, size, weight, wheel size, smooth throttle control, short steering pole, torque and speed make the CITY a formidable competitor for ANY City Commuter.
I think if we compared them both to Scooters in their CLASS... they BOTH would win out on TOP for sure. They are just both well built Scooters that I think will stand the test of time in their Classes and reign supreme for some time.
The deck looks so small compared to the wheels. I hope the City 2 has a longer or at least wider deck.

I wear a size 14 shoe and as you can see my feet rest comfortably on it. I've been on some small Decks but this one is right at the precipice of being too small.

There is actually no comparison between the two (and yes [as a Power Scooter Guy] the DTX2 is worth double the value)
You have to compare the CITY to Scooters in its Class. There are barely more formidable Scooters that can compare on one or two features but apples to apples There is no Scooter that can compare overall to the DTX2. With the DTX2 you are literally getting the KING of Electric Scooters.
So that says a lot about the unique build and capacity of the CITY.

What a lot of people are missing here is one of the reasons why bicycles and motorcycles have better stability. Yes geometry has something to do with it, but larger wheels like these generate a much stronger, more stabilizing centrifugal force. Tiny wheels don't generate as much centrifugal force, plus the center of gravity is high on a standup scooter. This gives all the weight a longer lever to counteract any centrifugal force increasing instability. Manufacturers should be heading in this direction. I'd like to see the tires a little wider as well.
Hey @savagemako17... thanks for Visiting Scootopia.
Well SAID... you hit it right on the head, and yes Manufacturers should be heading in this direction combined with several other features from different Scooters but you're totally right about the stability.

@@SCOOTOPIAbyOhManDan Hi Dan, thanks for the reply. It means a lot. I lived in San Rafael on and off for over 30 years. Moved out to North Carolina permanently a year and a half ago and have some great, new conditioned roads to ride on. Low traffic, maybe some golf carts, that's about it. I thought I'd get an electric SOMETHING to cruise the neighborhood with. I've ridden the limes and Birds in SF, but this is different. It would be my first stand up scooter and the City has my eye. I have an engineering background, so I have an idea how certain forces work on a vehicle like these scooters. None of that matters though, what matters is I'm getting on in years and will be 67 in the fall. I'm in decent shape, but still, a fall from one of these at speed could really screw me up, so I want to get a test ride on one of the more powerful scooters first and try it out. I know you can run on one single motor in the lower gear and never go faster than 20 mph. I've got to explore this. Any recommendations for gear? I have my motorcycle helmet to use, but how about elbow pads, knee pads. What's the best? Sorry for blabbing so much. I appreciate your reply. Take care bud.
Hey @savagemako17... thanks for Visiting Scootopia.
I am a solid AlpineStar Gear wearer. I have tested and proven this Gear to really protect its wearers whenever they go down. It has saved me time and time again. Even this last fall where I had to get my first surgery. I usually walk away with no broken bones or damaged tendons, ligaments, skin, or muscle (usually higher speed falls) but this one slow speed fall did just what they do (deliver the worst injuries).
I highly recommend AlpineStar Safety Gear, it cost more than mist but also works better than most, and offer the best comfort.
You're also right, in that you can set or dial in most Power Beast Scooters to Ride at safe moderate speeds without the fear of all that power and speed catching you off guard.
The bonus in thus us that as a person gets acclimated to the Acooter they can increase power and speed to their comfort levels as they grow with it.

Yes, the CITY has torque. I took it up the side of a freeway (a 30° slope) while in Nevada, and it chewed it up in grand Dualtron fashion.

Hey @ErwingVargas2272... thanks for visiting Scootopia.
I hate to break this news to you Buddy but there are NO Scooters on the streets that are completely water resistant
It is advised by ALL Scooter Companies "NOT to submerge, Ride in Rain, or subject your Scooter to ANY long direct water exposure"
Scooters have experienced serious electrical shorts, damaged batteries, damaged Motors, and dry rot issues.
The water ratings you see are only for small accidental water exposure and light sprinkles of water. Not intended to be ridden in and thru puddles of water or exposed to any sustained water.
Even without those small water ratings... Dualtrons are still the best built, most durable and the most powerful and fastest Scooters on the Streets.
I would not put too much stock in those small water ratings if I were you. We still have a long way if any... to go BEFORE ANY SCOOTER is water PROOF!!
Most of the water ratings pertain to certain parts of the Scooters mentioned... like the display, wires dashboard components.

I get your point@@erwingvargas2272... trust me when I tell you that companies put those ratings on their products because they know people don't fully understand the insignificance of it on certain items. Like on cellphones that Rating means a lot but not on Scooters because it doesn't address the value of water proofing in the minds of Scooter Consumers.
We want water proofing so bad that if anyone mentions the smallest amount of surface protection we get lost in the sauce of "COVERED" and it just isn't Covered in the slightest amount.
I just wanna be upfront with you Buddy. I am hoping that someone has a dream that Solves this for us and we wake up one day with a fully submersible water proof Scooter. That's the HOPE of us all for sure. It may happen because human beings are the most creative beings on the planet.
OhManDan! I ordered and received the City from MMUSA today! I told Cooper I bought it cause of your videos, they said you da man!
Question, I need another scooter. Should I get another city, or would you get an Achilleus or Thunder 2 because has more range and tires without tubes? Need your help man I'm about to place another order today.
Thanks for the content!
Hey Brother... Congratulations on your purchase and acquisition of The CITY.
It would depend on how much power you want. I would get the Thunder 2 and have the extra power for whenever you move up
If I may. Get a Luna x2 ebike. Switch it up. You'll have a blast. Stupid fast too if you get the ludicrous option.

I am going to have to check into that eBike Buddy and see if it is a one off that will actually fit my frame enough to excite me to jump into eBikes...
Top speed is a little high for me. What’s top speed in 2nd gear?

Top Speed can ALWAYS be adjusted through your "P" Settings. As a matter of fact. You can set your whole Scooter up as though it is an entry level Scooter (through "P" Settings) and as you get more accustomed to your CITY Scooter, you can adjust the "P" Settings to give you more power, speed etc.
I did not put it in 2nd Speed Setting. But I'm sure it will be somewhere around the 25mph range and the 1st setting around 15mph.
@@SCOOTOPIAbyOhManDan no problem, the video was really good. I just wish e scooter was legal here in London, then I’d buy something like this Dualtron city. It’s silly because we can rent e scooter and ride around London streets but we are not allowed to own our own and ride anywhere other then private land, if we own or have permission. Can get £300 fine e scooter taken and points on license. I do have 2 scooters but pretty cheap. Police don’t seem to bother me but I ride sensibly not on huge roads but I just can’t risk spending over £1000 while it’s illegal. My better scooter only goes 25mph and that’s so relaxing and fun plus it’s a pretty smooth ride but I can only imagine the joy or riding a Dualtron, wolf warrior/king etc. Anyway I’ll be sure to check out more of your videos. Have a great weekend 👍
@@grahamkelly8662 yeah, it is all about the money. When Electric Scooters get standardized then you will see them embraced and FULLY legalized around the world.
@@grahamkelly8662 2nd gear is 40 mph 😂
When are we going to see the bluetran?

The one I bought got delivered two days ago but I'm still on my Tour, will be done in seven days.
I have four new Scooters waiting on my return, then I will drop the Content for them.
@@SCOOTOPIAbyOhManDan Looking forward to it! I subscribed to your channel.
@@Acebean thanks for the SUB Buddy... there's so much exciting stuff Coming for our amazing PEV Industry this year and beyond!!! So Stay Tuned my now, New Official Scootopian Brother.
Ginger tested the Dualtron City on offroad and it was pretty bad for offroad.
Your answer is in the title of the scooter!!! Duh😲😲
@@gregmays9770 LOOOL having such tall wheels and you can't go offroad.
nice, but i cant believe people spend 3 to 4k on a scooter, crazy
Hey @dankollars4501... thanks for visiting Scootopia.
This is going to shock you, but people spend even more... QUITE HAPPILY!
People in this industry, especially eNthusiast, will continue spending whatever they can afford (and some who cannot afford) to buy, to ride, to store and even want.
We have to keep in mind that what is too high for some is not too high a price for others.
Before I started buying and reviewing high end, big power BEAST Scooters... there was very little PURCHASES of these BIG Premium Scooters (lotsa interest and Community chatter)
There were not any TH-camrs reviewing these expensive Scooters. That is because Manufacturers and Vendors were not giving them away for free. With their popularity now... certain Vendors and Manufacturers are starting to give them away to TH-camrs.

@@SCOOTOPIAbyOhManDan i hear you. i just know at this price point i personally would buy a used car or motorcycle.
I hear you @@dankollars4501 ...
there's many others who would agree with you and then there are those who already have enough Cars and Motorcycles and now drawn to this weird magnetic pull that ONLY eScooters have.
I'm sure multiple Scooter owners will understand when I say, "there's something about that all familiar ADDICTIVE therapeutic relief we get from Riding"
That itch is unique to each type and Brand of Scooter.
...just another PRICELESS moment... and we all love those, RIGHT!?

Looks like a hopped up version of a rental scooter.

That would definitely be the best looking rental I've ever seen. I does look like a hopped up something but a rental I can't see LOL
Damn it! LG batteries are the only down side of this beauty. I DO NOT TRUST LG BATTERIES! There’s a reason every fire starter in the consumer electric market over the last decade has had LG batteries. From the Samsung note 7 all the way to the Chevy bolt Ev.

I agree with you about ALL these janky batteries.
The ONLY Batteries that I KNOW are tested and have proven safe over many many years is TESLA Batteries.
Our industry should take a page out of the TESLA playbook and use TESLA Batteries and BMS format to shorten our charge times, promote healthier, longer life cycles and cooler temperatures. The work has already been done, all our industry has to do is partner with TESLA.
Haha ... that last comment made my day Dan. As a Tesla fan I completely agree with this. I'll subscribe now;)
