I just brought the the Gotrax elite Eclispe on Sunday. I love it but it's super heavy at 60 pounds. So I can't take it on the bus. I just brought XR Elite Max today. It weighs 30 pounds less and Im only using it to take it to work. It comes next week from Amazon. So far I love Gotrax. I have no problems with their scooters. I still love my Eclispe Ultra. It's just so heavy.
I'm kinda with you OP, I started with a razor prime 3, a Turboant M10, and now a Gotrax Eclipse and they have all done me well. I gave away the first two still rideable. Proudly pushing my Gotrax now. "pun intended" Ride on
I used to ride a GOTRAX commuter scooter every day, and the biggest problem was how fast everything started rattling and getting loose. The folding mechanism got wobbly pretty quick, and the ride just got rougher and rougher the more I used it. For like casual weekend rides it's totally fine, but for actually commuting on it daily? It didn't hold up nearly as well as I was hoping. The cheap price is why people go for them, but the tradeoff is you end up spending way more time fixing stuff than you really want to !!!
