X-Treme Scooters XB-420M Elite Electric Mobility Scooter Review

I bought this scooter as a retirement present to myself after extensive online research, and so far I am very happy with it. It certainly does elicit many favorable comments and it's a lot of fun to ride. The cost is very competitive - it looks like a more expensive scooter. It's a mobility scooter with the "wow" factor! Very solid and substantial to ride, but not that difficult to maneuver when pushing it, such as positioning it in the garage. So far I can't think of anything I'd change about it.

At full power the XB-420M can get up to 15+ MPH, easily the fastest mobility scooter on the market! And for those faint at heart a speed control unit can be used. Also included in a reverse gear, arm rests and a stylish cargo rack. Extra storage under the seat as well. Our line of XB-420M's comes in a slick Black color.

X-Treme Scooters XB-600 Elite Electric Bicycle Review

I bought this for my 3 mile commute. This was a terrific solution, but took some effort to make it ready for the road.
The quality that went into building the scooter was less than optimal. A lot of the bolts were not tight, the pedals holes did not align with the post the pedals attach to and the gear on the rear wheel was not screwed onto the wheel. These were all items I easily corrected and I was off on my ride. It was a nice ride, the shocks actually work. Turn signals and lights work, but I keep hitting the horn button with my knee! Hehehe. The speedometer does not measure the speed, but rather calculates it and does that poorly. The only real disappointment was with the power of the engine, it took a really long time to get up to speed and this can be an issue in traffic, I can't get out of the way of vehicles especially starting up at intersections. The simple solution for me was to add a 5th battery. After investing $75 for a battery and $75 for a bigger charger, I mounting the new battery under the seat and now it has good pick-up and has a faster top speed. The range is good, I charge every 2 or 3 days and the charger stores easily in under the seat.
This is not a perfect product out of the box, but I couldn't live without it now. My new relaxation technique is a cross-town ride on Saturday afternoons on my scooter.

X-Treme Scooters XB-700LI Lithium Powered Electric Bicycle Review

This has been a great purchase for my 14 year old of course my husband and I enjoy it too. I expected a little whine like the little kid power wheels but this bike is very quiet. The only issue we have had with the bike was when we got the bike the charger was set wrong so the bike didn't charge. We contacted x-treme and they helped us over the phone. This has been a great value. If you have a child who can't drive yet but has places to be this is great for them or if you like the feeling of a scooter but not the cost this electric bike does the trick. We estimate this bike to go 35-40 miles on a charge if you don't use the headlights. We are not sure how far with the headlights. We believe they do drain the battery a little faster but we haven't check the distance using the headlights the whole time. My family loves this bike. Why didn't they make cool stuff like this when I was a kid? I am so jealous of my daughter.

I will write another review after appx 3-4 months of use. For me, however, this is a perfect. I am a 64 year old man with serious heart disease. I need regular exercise, but have to stop if I feel my heart stressing too much. The X-Treme Electric Bicycle XB-502 allows me that flexibility. I can pedal or turn on the electric drive and cruise. A perfect fit also was the low price which allowed me to buy it for cash. Also perfect is I need no drivers license, do not have to register it, or insure it. I can ride it on bicycle paths just like a regular bike, or on the street where allowed.
