My primary issues with dockless scooters are these:
1. Solid tires are awful. Harsh ride, unsafe/twitchy as hell on even slightly rough roads, and they don't inspire confidence for handling.
2. Motors that need to be kick-started in order to have enough torque to work are incredibly frustrating to use and don't have enough acceleration to get out of trouble.

- hprotagonist 7y agofor $1600, i'll just craiglist myself a 49cc scooter if i want a not-bicycle to get around on. 90+mpg, 30mph top speed, no special insurance or licenses needed, you can park it on the sidewalk, and (in my city) use the bike lanes. And it even carries groceries!
