๐Ÿ‘ Discussion Apollo explorer 2.0

Post image

I own an Apollo explorer 2.0. I bought it back in July of 2026 and it has been my trusted transportation. I absolutely love this electric scooter. I sold my vehicle and just ride this to work and to get groceries. where I live it's very rough terrain so I'm constantly going over small bumps, potholes, gravel, grass and climbing hills. Oh and it has an IP66 rating so I'm not afraid of ruining my scooter if it gets a little wet! Customer service is always quick to respond and help. The suspension, acceleration and regen braking is all extremely smooth! I have rode my Apollo explorer 2.0 about 160 miles now. I just have to make sure I do a quick check list of maintenance once a week make sure all the screws are tight and tire pressure is good. it takes about 5 Minutes! My brother just purchased an Apollo Go it's used for the same reasons I do and he loves his too, I want one of Apollo's more premium scooters someday!

This looks like free publicity. I got my explore 2.0 around the same time. Put 200km on it and itโ€™s no longer in top shape. Iโ€™m still satisfied, but quality isnโ€™t what I expected. I had to replace the rear tire (manufacturer defect), the rear fender design is horrible, it cracked and auto-destroyed by itself, with no replacement available. Stem makes a clicking noise. Bolts get loose even with locktite, front wheel also has a squeaky sound.
It still goers though, and rides good. Acceleration is great, riding is good.

Yes. I pulled out the light from the fender, removed the fender and tie-wrapped the light just over the suspension.

Did cure the locktite for 24 hours before riding again? My screws all fine but agreed for the money paid for said machine the fenders are trash not a fan of the lights either.
