Ready for the spring season?

The sun is shining, it’s getting warmer and the streets are ready for you! Get your scooter out of the garage or come by us in Regensdorf to get advice about your perhaps first electric scooter.

In order to start the new season safely and like a real professional, there are a few things you should pay attention to when you go back on the streets after the winter break:

Batteries

If an electric scooter sits around for a long time and is not used, the battery may discharge during this time. It is therefore important, before the first trip into the new season, to fully charge the batteries once and reconnect them to the scooter.

Reifen

In order to be safe on the roads even after a long break, it does not hurt to check the tires according to the air pressure. The guideline values range between 2.25 and 2.5 bar for the front tyre. At the rear it should be between 2.5 and 2.9 bar. It is also important that you mount either the summer tires or all-season tires.

Brake and light check

Even if the brake discs should work perfectly even after standing around for a long time, it can not hurt to take a short brake test before driving. To do this, accelerate a few meters and brake again to test the front and rear brake discs.
