“Have been riding the VSETT 8 in non-winter months for over a year and a half. Good blend of performance, durability and price for my purposes. Have about 900 miles on the odometer without so much as a flat. Takes a bit to reach full speed (I weigh 200 lbs and have the single-motor version), but consistently goes 25mph as promised. Cons: the cable entry to the main body has lots its water-tight seal and the front brake 'bolt' is bent from hitting cracks in the road. Pros: fun to ride, I leave the car in the garage whenever I can - so much fun!”
“It's a nice scooter and it rides well until your tire gets a flat or your brake cables pop out of place. When I unpacked the advanced tool kit included in the package, I saw it as a red flag. I needed this model for more sturdiness, more power and more range. I'm not interested in tinkering and fixing it. Instead I fell like I got a high-maintenance pony that needs to be thoroughly checked before every ride. My front tire got a flat after just one use and then I looked it up and it turned out that "yeah... that happens a lot". Oh well... Is it a bug or a feature? Who knows!
If you like tinkering and are OK with daily thrill of not knowing if your brakes will work or if you will make it to work on time, get Vsett 8! I'm still hoping it will work out in the long run.”
“This scooter is a true joy. I got it as a companion to my Vsett 10+, which I'm also in love with. But there's something really special about the 8. It's just so darn cute! While lacking the torque of a dual motor unit, this thing pulls very hard on a flat up to around 28 MPH. Single motor means a lot less weight, and in this case it also affords you the pneumatic tire up front. While the solid rear tire sacrifices smoothness and grip, it's basically worry-free for hundreds of miles. So there's just a ton of smart compromises going on here and I have to admit to grabbing the 8 for short, quick joyrides more frequently than full power blasts on the 10+!”
“Pros: Very comfortable ride with good suspension and good range.
Cons: Headlights are not bright enough but has a nice light bar to make sure your visible in traffic. Wish it had thumb throttle.
Great customer support from Jason and Eric who helped me a lot through my purchase!”
“The package came in two days only - blew my mind how fast it got to my apartment.
Brand new - working condition and it's a beast. Dual motors would've been nice but I'm super happy with the Vsett 8 (upgraded battery). Can't wait to take her out more.”
“I love this device. Battery has best range compared to other escooters in price range. Its big and feels sturdy. Only thing is stopping distance is more than Im used to but when taken into account its ok. I do wish it had both solid tires. Front tire needs constant reairing. Faster scooters would need air tires, so this one is right at the biggest scooter that still works with airless tires. Its a great street legal, where I live, comutter with a higher top speed yet less pick up. For comuting higher top speed and more range are better for my usage. I do wish brakes where better for those cars that turn in front of you... Very affordable and accessable ride especially when electric motorcycles cost over $50k, who has that kind of cash to throw around, you might as well just buy a car.”
“I really love this thing. Before you ride there is a utube vid called check before you ride vsett 8. It helped me figureout that the stem should lock into place more and showed me how to adjust the tension. That info potentially saved my butt. The start up is a bit much but thats ok. Definately do a safety check beforehand. Get the brakes just right adjust brake and throtle position properly so you dont wear out your joints. Basically move brake and throttle down so you dont have an unatural flex position. I would have liked to get a faster ride, but where I live street legal is under 1000 watt motor and max 25 mph speed on flat serface. So this model is cheaper and it fits the regulations, though the regulations suck in my opinion. You are really safer flowing with traffic than being a speedbump for a truck... I have an etwow gt se its more nimble and fun for joy rides. The vsett 8 is really a better comuter with higher top speed and better range. I really love it. Both are nice to have but comutting is more practical. I am going to enjoy shopping and not having to pay for eising gas prices. We need to all refuse the greedy cash grab by these imoral gas giants. We are the ones who change reality, not the tyranical idiots who think they are in charge. We should not have to ask for permission to do the right thing for the planet and mankind. Just say no to greedy corporations and support the independent companies that make the world a cleaner and better place. We still need a car for large shopping but starting to reduce the use is a start. Starting now is always a good thing. If more of us start riding then maybe we can stop this ynecessary crap regulations. Ride safe and responsible the world is watching us all. Dont give them reasons to stop our progress on affordable clean transportation for everybody. The rich can fly in their private jets already so get off my streets and keep your tyranical regulations to yourself. Keep up the goid work ewheels I am standing with you.”
