Lime has offered ebikes for rent in Seattle for years. In 2022, it introduced electric scooters (which riders stand on). The LimeGlider fits in the middle of the two vehicles.
LOL. I scooted over to Walmart during my lunch to pick up a backpack full of groceries. No sweat at all :)
I didn’t mention another benefit of an e-scooter over a bike/e-bike, they are basically zero maintenance. Keep the tires inflated, and you’re good.
Of course, that’s only for “basic” e-scooters. Once you get into super scooters with dual disc brakes, suspension, and other extras, it’s like maintaining a motorcycle, and that’s just not convenient.
Simple is why I like skateboards: I can build a good one for like $60-80 from scratch if I use a blemish deck and even cheaper if I use the parts I already have. The only things you need to maintain are bushings, bearings, and wheels (all of which are stupid simple to replace when they finally die, which will still be a long time even if you skate hard every single day).
