FAQ

Having trouble with your scooter? You can find all our FAQs here.

Can this scooter be used on the pavement?

No, electric scooter use is restricted to cycle paths. If there are no cycle paths, they can be used on roads with a maximum speed limit of 50 km/h. They can also be used on pavements as long as they do not exceed 6 km/h and do not interfere with pedestrians.

What type of brake does the MD500 scooter have?

The MD500 scooter features a mechanical disc brake that operates on the rear wheel.The brake pads must be checked for wear on a regular basis.

Can you brake with the rear mudguard? 

No, the rear mudguard is not used for braking. Placing your foot on it or using it as a brake can damage it.

How long is the warranty on the MD500?

2 years except parts subject to wear and tear (wheels, bearings, braking systems, suspension, grip and handles).

Can you ride it in the rain?

Yes, but for short journeys. We recommend that you dry it thoroughly as soon as you reach your destination. 

Do the wheels of my MD500 scooter have inner tubes?

No, the MD500 scooter is fitted with tubeless tyres. This has the benefit of preventing small punctures because the tyre is more rigid and has an integrated gel system for self-repairing small punctures. In the event of more significant damage, tyre plugs can be inserted.
