  5 / 5

  I researched carefully before buying the Relync R2 and I ended up with the best folding scooter I could have hoped for. The Relync is sturdy -- much more solidly built than most of the other quick-folding "suitcase scooters" that you can take onto public transportation. But don't mistake a robust frame for being too big to handle... my Relync folds into a standard checked-luggage size suitcase with a handle in less than five seconds, and then unfolds in the same amount of time at the other end so I can ride away. It has several kilometers of charge (I'm not sure exactly how many, but I know I've ridden at least 3-4 in a day and had more than half of my power showing as still available afterward) and it recharges in only about an hour or so from a normal ride. The only very trivial complaints I might make about it are that you have to hold the 'go' other down constantly while you ride, which can be a bit uncomfortable on your hand for long rides; and that it doesn't go very fast. The highest gear is four, and the fastest it goes in that gear is about 6.5km/hour. It would be nice if it had a *little* more speed. I understand why it doesn't let you take your hand off the throttle, however... it has no brakes, so it would be very dangerous if there weren't an automatic way to stop it quickly, just by lifting your finger from the button. It might be nice if it did have brakes, but this would very likely make it bigger and less streamlined than it currently is... and it's great at its current size and shape. So maybe it's better the way it is. It doesn't come with a key either, but since it can be pulled inside with you in its suitcase configuration instead of left anywhere, there really isn't a need for one. You just put it in a corner where you can keep an eye on it. One of the best scooters I've ever owned, and the device that's made it possible for me to use the public transit system freely.
