Hi everyone,
I’m using a Ninebot Max G30 scooter for half the year, but for the other half, our area is covered in ice and snow. This makes it really hard to ride because the paths are slippery and it’s impossible to navigate with the scooter’s small wheels.
I’m wondering if anyone here rides a scooter in similar icy and snowy conditions. If so, what model do you have? Ideally, I’m thinking about something with larger and wider wheels, and maybe a detachable battery so I don’t have to bring a wet and dirty scooter indoors.
I’m looking for advice based on real-life experiences if possible.
Thanks in advance!
No offense, but this idea seems kinda sketchy: A monowheel losing grip can be catastrophic and if the battery dies you’re just left with extra weight. Plus, as far as I know, you can’t get studded tires for them.
Eh, I’ve used them in winter extensively. Though a fatbike, as suggested below, is a much better overall option. Compared to tiny tires of an electric scooter, a monowheel is imo superior. Fight me 😸
I’m not fighting someone crazy enough to winter commute on a monowheel lol
