If you live in San Francisco or some similar city with proper undulations to navigate on your daily commute, the WhideWheel Pro, which is the development of the successful Whidewheel, could be your choice of e-scooter.
Overall stronger build quality and an all-new 48W 15Ah battery deliver increased torque and acceleration. It easily manages 30% inclines.
This is a fast dual motors e-scooter with unique ride quality. It shoots away from a standstill and reaches 15 mph (24 km/h) in three seconds.
1000W/1600W peak power motors pack a proper punch. Maximum speed is similar to the regular 1000W Whidewheel with 26 mph (42 km/h) and the real-life range is increased slightly to 20 miles (32 km). There is an option to ride in ECO mode which will increase the range to approximately 30 miles (48 km) if you cruise slightly slower.
The upgraded folding design makes for the same easy portability as the regular Whidewheel. Handlebars fold in to minimize the risk of snagging things, and the weight is similar at 54 lbs (24,5 kg) even though it packs a bigger battery pack.
The weight is manageable if you need to bring it on public transport, but not if you need to carry it for longer periods, or maybe up some stairs. Both of these e-scooters fit in most car trunks, which is also something to consider when planning one’s commute.
Bear in mind that this e-scooter is for smooth paved surfaces only. The solid wide wheel tires provide a brilliant sensation when riding on a well-paved road or path. But venture out on cobblestones or rough surfaces and it quickly loses its charm.
It does come with front and rear spring suspensions to compensate for the polyurethane tires. This version also has front and rear 120 mm disc brakes for improved stopping power, as well as regenerative braking.
It has a new led display that shows speed, battery charge, and total mileage. Equipped with cruise control very cleverly done by pressing and holding a button at the desired speed on the display.
Touch the handbrakes or throttle and it disengages, same as in a car, very intuitive. Upgraded Led headlight and rear light help improve visibility forward, but for proper dark riding on city streets, we recommend buying an additional front light. This is like the Golf GTI of electric kick scooters, and it even manages to look cool, which for an e-scooter is quite a feat.
If you want something fast, with great acceleration, high speed, a brilliant braking system, and fun to ride, this could be the best electric scooter for you.

“Awesome WideWheel Pro 2020”
“- OMG – this scooter exceeds all expectation!! So weβll made, heavy duty in fact. The only thing remotely critical might be itβs weight, but that was forecasted and in being heavily and well made – thatβs likely hand in hand!! Otherwise Iβd buy it again. Already have 60 miles in it and I love it – my kids do too. Great purchase.”
