Essentially, title. Is it ok to ask for recommendations here? Looking to buy a scooter, possibly an ebike, and I don’t want to accidentally buy a piece of crap.

Previously, I owned a vsett8, which became inoperable and unfixable the first time it was rained on (I don’t have it anymore). Before that, a turbowheel lightning, which I loved until it was stolen.

Now though, I’m on a tight budget and everything is more expensive than ever.

Are there reputable ‘buyers guides’ that this community can recommend? Or maybe you’ve had good experience with a model/brand/seller?

EDIT: ok, i’ve got a list to check out. Thank you everyone. Y’all probably won’t hear from me again until I’ve done the research and made a decision. I’ll probably make a new post later on detailing what I’ve found and how I made my decision. Might be a while tho.

    Absolutely!

    I’m more of a bike guy, but if your money is tight, it might be worth looking into refurbished stuff on eBay (just be sure to buy from a reputable seller, refurbishers often even include a 2 year warranty). Brand wise, I’ve heard NIU is an OK budget brand.

    By the way, I featured your post to keep it up at the top for a while. Hopefully that’ll get you some good answers!
