  • The Gotrax Rival has quickly become my grown-up toy of choice. No doubt about it, as you get older, the toys get cooler and cooler. The Gotrax Rival has a max speed of 15mph, a 12-mile range, and a 250w motor. In short, this thing kicks and gets me from A to B in fun and convenience, but is it right for you?

      Is there a way to make the battery bigger? I have to ride the gotrax rival to high school which is 6 miles away and the battery always runs out a mile or two before I get home on the way back.

      @LoKnows  Před 2 lety

      @@thedelusioner4250 that’s weird. You should get 9-12 miles out of it depending on the wear and stress on the motor. I would think you could charge at school. Weird it wouldn’t get 6 miles.

    I had just purchased this same model for $233 with taxes at Walmart. I been having my eyes on it for a while. It was 498 then went to 398. Now it’s on sale for 198 so I had to get it. Ant wait to get it and imma make a video too.

    I have had mine for a year and a half now and it is the best $300 I ever spent.
    I just rode it through 2 in of slush on the roads for about a two mile round trip. The fact that it is front wheel drive, it plows right through that slush.
    I have used it in extremely wet terrain and have never had an issue knock on wood.

    Yeah I'm getting one. A few years ago I inherited a beat up Razor E200 that was already rode hard and put away wet and it finally crapped out. It turned a 10+ minute very hot or very cold trek from my parking garage into work into a 2 minute zip. And anybody who's anybody knows how important 10+ minutes can be before work. And after a long day on my feet the last thing I want to do is walk it back.

    I’m on my 2nd one and the 1st one is nothing wrong with it is just beat up but I’ll use it when is a little wet (not heavy rain) and the new one when is dry and is not recreational is actually work I use them to ride and pick up cars that way I don’t have to walk so much!!! Love this things and are the best investment I ever made , I go home but at least I’m not tired of walking and walking and walking!!! Also is a reputable brand and gives you the trust and safety of the battery 🪫!! Lately so many fires cause people buy weird brands from China and the batteries explode and for example in NYC at least 10 fires are caused by scooters and bikes!!!! So only buy from a well known company like Gotrax!!

      If you bought it an hour ago you didn't charge it up when you got it home. Batteries do loose power if you don't charge it, same as cars.

      ​@@elitrotter7365if it slips out it wasn't put together right in the first place can't blame gotrax for improper assembly also to get out of Cruz control you just tap the throttle agin for a second and slows down quickly even without breaking I love it it's a great scooter
