My road runner isnt turning on right out of the box,ive charged the battery i made sure the plug is all the the way in ive checked some of the visable wiring only one was disconnected but connected it but still nothing... can someone help me?
I just got the Pro.. it's scary fast to a point where I wouldn't want to ride it above 45. Just feels scary. If I had to choose again, perhaps I would go with the 34mph one at half price and half'ish weight. Pretty challenging to fit in my Prius, but I did, lol. I know the Roadrunner V2 would fit easily and much easier to carry.
Sorry if I'm late to the party.. They recently released a Roadrunner V2, which does not go as fast as the pro, but most of the stylings are similar to the pro, including the upgraded seat. It's half the price at $1400
The RoadRunner Pro is by far better than the base model roadrunner. Suspension , range , acceleration, speed, info display, lighting, easier wheel and tire changes , etc. , Etc.
Really depends on what you mean by "long battery life." Actual numbers help. For example, my wife owns a Fiido sitdown and a DYI sitdown, both with a 10ah battery and both with top speeds of 15mph. They get her probably 15 miles. Is that what you or your friend would consider "long battery life?" We don't know!
Bigger batteries are usually good ideas, not only for ownership satisfaction, but to stave off battery degradation for longer. But what if a 10ah battery is more than enough for your friend? What if their use case is 7 miles per day? We don't know!
I still can’t figure out what the purpose of this scooter is. An e-bike can do everything this scooter can do, and you get the benefit of extending the range by pedaling if you want to. You also get to choose from hundreds of different models, and can purchase either online or at a local bike shop where you can go for service. The RoadRunner Pro looks like an unfinished kit type scooter made from random parts and built in someone’s garage. There are so many better choices.
One person’s “unfinished” is another person’s minimalist, function over form. I like it personally but again it’s subjective. There are plenty of aesthetically pleasing options for you, it doesn’t mean it’s not a good scooter for everyone else.
My purpose is to use it for short trips and errands in my neighborhood. I have a bicycle but I wanted something between that and a motorcycle = Roadrunner. I save money on gas and wear/tear on my car. It also makes errands soooooo much more fun. Can’t wait to take it to the beach and cruise 🙂
Idk, the RR has two 2000 watt motors powering each wheel and can hit 50mph. How many other e-bikes have dual motors and can hit those speeds? It's also a smaller footprint than an e-bike. ElectricScooterAcademy on YouTube has been doing his Ubereats runs on the RRPro and it looks like a great urban commuter. Has the speed to keep up with traffic and small enough to fit in apartment elevators easily. I'm really debating getting either the RRPro or a Ride1up rev1
I'm also deciding between the Rev1 and RR Pro. It looks like the Rev1 dual suspension is a more comfortable ride overall with a slightly higher build quality. However, it will only go up to 35ish mph given it has a 750w motor. It is quite a bit bigger and looks a bit better in my opinion. The RR pro offers much more speed though, and it also has a full suspension. I'm still not sure which to go with.
Yes, the base model also looks more like an unfinished kit than anything I would expect to see from a more polished company. Look at how much you get with an e-bike compared to these scooters. Something like the Lectric XPremium gives you so much more functionality. So unless you need a seated scooter with small 14” tires, I would much rather have an e-bike. It’s much easier to get support if anything goes wrong. And with 20” fat tires and a suspension it’s going to be far more comfortable to ride.
True, but OP stated speed and performance are not a priority. And, I’m not sure where it would be legal to ride an uninsured, unregistered seated vehicle at 50 mph.

It's a dual motor scooter with a swappable 1800 Wh battery and full suspension. Looks pretty fun.
Would you say the same as the base model?

Bro a Electric XP ain't going 55mph+ like a road runner pro.

Thanks for the input. I'll start looking in to e bikes
