Folding the bike is a breeze, Unhook the handlebar from the lock and fold it snugly into the frame. Unfortunately, the frame itself cannot be folded taking up more space than a bike with a fully foldable frame. When folded, it measures a compact 105 x 20 x 20 x 70 cm, weighing only 14.7 kg, it makes easy to transport and carry. The frame also serves as a handle and its small wheels make it a cinch to fit into the back of your car or on public transport.

Riding Experience

This Electric Scooter is easy to set off just press the ignition button and give the right handlebar a twist to activate the electric assistance. It offers excellent control and handling, providing riders with a pleasant experience. However, riders cannot adjust the assistance level as it needs to be controlled with their wrist. The scooter can reach a maximum speed of 25 km/h due to its 350W power.

Riding the Windgoo B3 Electric Scooter on hilly terrain is not ideal as it can only overcome gradients of up to 10°. Although it is responsive on flat surfaces it struggles uphill. The rear disc braking system is sensitive and effective even on downhill slopes which is a positive feature. However, the lack of pedals means that riders must rely on their feet to move the scooter if the battery runs out.

The seating position on the Windgoo B3 Electric Scooter is comfortable and easy to maintain. The seat padding is decent but it may not be suitable for taller riders. As the highest saddle height only allows riders of up to 1.70 m to place their feet on the ground. The scooter does not have pedals but the footrests are wide and provide good stability when riding. The ride is smooth and the accessories such as the side stand, LED headlight, taillight and horn are useful. The LED display shows only the battery status and it would have been better to add more features like a distance counter. Overall, the Windgoo B3 Electric Scooter is a good option for riding.

Performance

manufacturer has given Windgoo B3 its seal of approval, claiming a range of 15-17 km depending on use. However, when we tested it on a hilly terrain at max power with a rider over 60 kg, we found that it did not reach 17 km despite having a 4400 mAh lithium-ion battery (non-removable) placed on the frame. Additionally, the battery takes 3-4 hours to fully recharge, which we found to be quite slow.

Windgoo B3’s design and overall equipment impressed us, and it provided a safe ride in traffic with its reliable braking performance. However, we noted that the scooter had difficulty climbing hills, maintaining stability on uneven surfaces, absorbing obstacles, and achieving sufficient range. Improving these areas could enhance the overall riding experience.
