I'm really happy to see some sort of geometry on the faster ones to mitigate what must be very twitchy steering. Still, the idea of going 70MPH on something like that breaks my brain.

Back in the early aughts I used to commute on a foldup scoots along with taking the bus. It was excellent then, and this newer breed of scoots has so much more to offer. I still actually have the last one I used, because it's a work of art by a company that pretty much immediately went out of business. It had lithium ion batteries, 21mph top speed, regenerative braking, and was made of solid milled aluminum IN TWO THOUSAND AND THREE. I bought an early release for like $350. I'll dig it out sometime and post pictures.

I could get it going again with a new battery pack and a replacement for the cracked telescoping stalk, probably.
