One question. At 25 lbs it does not sound like it would be infeasible to ride even without the motor should the battery die? Should that be possible? Like do escooters work ok as push scooters in a pinch?
In my experience, you can’t kick scoot a dead escooter, unfortunately. The motor creates resistance and won’t roll. You’d have to push it, but for the ranges she needs, I doubt this would come up.
