You are now the owner of a portable, eco-friendly mode of transport that is incredibly fun to use. Integrating state of the art motor technology developed by YUNEEC for use in the aviation industry, E-GO brings to the streets an experience and convenience that was never available in the past.Setting aside dated conventions, E-GO focuses on what is essential to the design of a sus-tainable transport unit that functions in modern urban areas. Combining high performance with low consumption, E-GO CRUISER allows you to travel up to 40Km / 25M on one full charge. Its lightweight design and compact dimensions make the E-GO the perfect wingman wherever you go: just pick up your board and step into a taxi, bus, train or indoor location.Boarding is often linked to extreme sports` activities like surfing, skating or snowboarding and there are definetely similarities in the amount of freedom experienced when moving through space. However, E-GO is foremost a city transport unit and distinguishes itself as such especially by its incredible braking system, giving the rider the constant control over his / her vehicle required to ensure the safety of other people as well as his / her own.Keeping the latter in mind we would like to suggest you read through this user manual, ensuring you understand fully how to properly set-up and use your E-GO CRUISER and what general common sense to apply when riding in a public area. The general rule we personally tend to follow: Ride with consideration and style. We hope you enjoy your E-GO experience!
