Consumer Reports recently wrote an article about a speed glitch based on the information they found on the ScooterTalk forum. The glitch impacts the Segway Ninebot e-scooter in the fleets on Bird, Lyft, VOI, and more.
By following a few simple steps the scooter will rocket past the governed speed implemented by the city to 20+ mph (30+ kph).
Here are the steps:
(1) Begin riding the scooter
(2) While holding the throttle down press hard with your foot on the rear fender break to bring the scooter to a brief stop
(3) While continuing to hold the throttle release your foot from the rear fender
