    these do want to roll around as you're transporting them so you just have to know that and you have to hold on to it more

    Very solid stem like pretty much no movement in it at all.

  • App, Display & Security-5 pts

    The way the button feels on the display is a little bit hokier. It's a little bit hard to get that pressed

    Every once in a blue moon you screw in the stop at the end of the brake cable, right past that lever on the wheel, to make up for the slack.

    I am concerned about getting flats due to pneumatic tires

    the UI is outdated, English is kinda broken and some little things like total mileage just plainly don't work.

    In order to change that, you need the app, I think. Don't quote me on that. I don't see a way to do it in here.

  • Portability & Folding-5 pts

    The fender did crack and I had to order a Chinese knockoff one. And I have no rear light now. And that snappy thing no longer exists. So I can't even fold it if I wanted to.
