My observations on electric scooters:

• Best Affordable Scooter in 2025: Xiaomi Elite 5. It offers a range of 40 km, 400-700 watts of power, can support up to 120 kg, and has front spring suspension. After reviewing numerous electric scooter ads, I can confidently say that the Xiaomi Elite 5 is the only one under $350 that meets these standards.
• Mechanical bikes without motors can easily outpace electric scooters on downhill slopes due to their larger wheels providing better traction.
• Check tire pressure about once every 10 days if you ride daily.
• Electric scooters are more suitable for shorter individuals, while taller people might find bikes easier to manage.
  • Short individuals may struggle to mount a bike.
  • Taller people might be at higher risk of falling off an electric scooter.
