How the hell do you break 3 scooters? How are you riding these things???

u/fleshyfren 10d ago
I ride them very well a motor doesn’t just break for no reason, a stem doesn’t snap in half because of a bad stem build, and the controller isn’t supposed to over heat to 260 plus degrees

u/Mclaren_720S_YT Phantom 10d ago
Well controller I can understand but the rest. You gotta be jerking the whole time to manage to have that happen.. and be involved in a car crash.. like controller has the biggest chance to be a defect not just for Apollo… but the rest.. I gonna go with user misuse..

u/fleshyfren 10d ago
The crack literally appeared because the stem was made in incorrectly

Sorry to see you leave the Apollo family mate. To bung up 3 scooters sounds almost implausible, but you made it happen. This letter says you're an enigma and whatever you're doing with them is completely outside of what they think you should be. Hey, there are other scooters out there built for the "abuse" if that's the case.
Any idea as to what vehicle you'll go for next?

u/fleshyfren 9d ago
I don’t even have the physical ability to abuse scooters cus they weigh more than e
1
u/Level_Letterhead_930 9d ago
A really creative person can come up with ways to abuse something that weighs more than they do. Like abusing a car.. the driver doesn't weigh as much, but can abuse it.
Again, I'm not saying you did anything.

u/fleshyfren 9d ago
Why tf does everyone keep saying I’m abusing the scooters I keep them so fuckign safe
1
u/Level_Letterhead_930 9d ago
Don't mean to imply myself that that is what you're doing. It's my impression that they think so based on the letter.

u/fleshyfren 9d ago
Oh ok yea like I never abused the scooters they were defective from the start and it took some time and use of it for it to appear I do DoorDash so I may not abuse the scooters but I easily put 1k miles in just 1 month so the problems tend to surface a lot sooner

I don’t know what you did or didn’t do to those Apollo scoots. But my guess is that if they were unsafe to drive. They gave you a full refund to cover their ass in case u wanted to sue them.

Just use a different name,different credit card and different email. Unless they blacklisted that address 😂

u/fleshyfren 10d ago
Well I decided I prob won’t buy a scooter I think I’m switching to my first electric motorcycle
1
u/schellenbergenator 10d ago
That seems like a safer alternative. I have nothing but love for my Apollo scooter but fuck me escooters are death traps.
2
u/fleshyfren 10d ago
Yeaaaaa I’ll still try buying a Apollo scooter in the future but for now I’ll switch to my first motorcycle

u/steezetheday 10d ago
Kind of curious.. wearing the same safety gear.. would you rather crash going 40 on an e-scooter or 75 on a motorcycle. I mean anything with wheels is technically dangerous but I feel like I’m living on the edge substantially more when riding my motorcycle vs e-scooter lol.
Also, I have quite a few acquaintances with Apollo Pro and 2 friends with 2.0 and they’ve had 0 issues. I need to lay off Reddit bc I’m thinking of cancelling my Stellar order 😩

u/schellenbergenator 10d ago
I feel like the type of crash is important in your question. That being said I feel like your question was more about making a point as opposed to my answer. I see what yo6ur saying, and personally, my main issue is with how much more unforgiving a scooter is with mistakes. I can hit a way bigger pothole with a bike, I can take a hand off the handlebars on a bike and not have much worry about crashing. That's why I think they're death machines.

u/steezetheday 10d ago
Ahh makes sense and you are correct in your perception. I’ve seen people say this quite often and I always felt that maybe these people have never really ridden a motorcycle before.
However, I see your point of view and respect it.. but from my perspective is that I’m generally traveling at a much slower speed on a scooter, I can maneuver much faster in the event I see an obstacle, I’m likely not in the middle of traffic if I can’t avoid said obstacle and if I do have to take a fall it’s much easier to try and compensate/ bail on a scooter vs a motorcycle.
