Servicing Fees Breakdown

Servicing and maintenance for electronics and vehicles can be a pain. That's why some riders choose to let us do it for them.

Unfortunately, we are not located in every major city so in order for us to perform this on your behalf, there is a need to send your scooter back to us. While shipping fees are expensive (due to the fact that it is heavy and contains battery components), we try to keep our labor fees as low as possible in order to still provide this as an affordable and viable option for you. Our labor fees are charged based on the type of repair needed.Please see our servicing menu bellow to get your vehicle the attention of a trained technician to address the repairs and replacements needed.

  • Important Terms:
  • Do note that the estimated time and price may differ slightly across the various models and the condition of the scooter itself. The prices and time shown are based on a normally maintained vehicle with no other complications which may cost more time and effort to repair/replace parts.
  • Prices DO NOT include any components which may require replacement.
  • All prices are shown in USD and do not include any tax if applicable.

All servicing requests will take about 1-2 weeks inclusive of shipping times (excluding any unforeseen circumstances and delays), so do be prepared to be without your scooter for this time frame.

FAQs

How often should I perform maintenance on my electric scooter?

Regular scooter maintenance is crucial to keep your electric scooter running smoothly. We recommend performing basic maintenance, such as checking the tire pressure, brakes, and battery, every month. A more thorough check-up, including professional scooter servicing at a scooter service centre, should be done every 6 to 12 months, depending on your usage.

What should I do if my electric scooter won't start?

If your electric scooter won't start, start by checking the battery to ensure it's fully charged. Inspect the connections for any loose or damaged wires. If the problem persists, it might require more specialized electric scooter repair. Consider consulting a professional at a scooter service centre for a comprehensive diagnostic and repair service.

Can I replace the battery in my electric scooter myself?

Yes, you can replace the battery in your electric scooter yourself if you have basic technical knowledge and the right tools. Most electric scooter models are designed with battery replacement in mind. However, make sure to consult your scooter's manual for specific instructions, and always follow safety guidelines to prevent injury. If you're not confident, scooter servicing professionals are always ready to help.

How long do electric scooter batteries last?

Electric scooter batteries typically last between 1 to 3 years or about 300 to 500 charging cycles, depending on the usage, maintenance, and storage conditions. Extending your battery's life can be achieved with proper scooter maintenance, such as avoiding overcharging, storing the scooter in a cool, dry place, and keeping the battery charged even when not in use for extended periods.

Is it safe to ride an electric scooter in the rain?

Riding an electric scooter in light rain can be safe if your scooter is rated as water-resistant, but it's generally advisable to avoid wet conditions to prevent scooter maintenance issues. Water can damage the electrical components and increase the risk of accidents due to slippery surfaces. Always check the manufacturer's recommendations and if caught in the rain, perform a thorough check and dry your scooter afterwards to prevent damage.

What should I do if my electric scooter is making strange noises?

Strange noises from your electric scooter could indicate several issues, such as loose parts, wear and tear on the tires, or problems with the motor. Start by inspecting visible components to see if anything is out of place or damaged. If you cannot identify the source of the noise, it might be time for a professional check-up. Taking your scooter to a scooter service centre can help diagnose and fix the problem, ensuring your ride is safe and sound.
