Bikes have been our go-to city travel companion, but they get stolen easily, wear out from the weather, and time consuming to park and lock. Consumption of electric scooters has ramped up drastically over the past year, and there’s no shock there! Electric scooters are fast, small, generally lightweight, and can fold up and be carried anywhere. If you ride to the office, you can keep it next to your desk without worry of it going missing. Here are the best e-scooters for your commute.
