The intuitive sensor can detect every mode and precisely respond creating a seamless riding experience. With this zero-emission, long-range, powerful Volador, commuting just got fun. Disc Brake System - Volador features Front and Rear disc brakes to keep you safe. When the brakes are engaged it triggers a safety mechanism that disengages the motor and shuts down the power system.

Alongside this, the battery and materials used throughout manufacturing are clearly of premium quality. How fast does it go? Throttle-only top speed of up to 20 mp/h (32 km/h). What age/weight is it suitable for? Volador best suits teens and adults aged 13+. Thanks to the lightweight yet mighty aluminum alloy frame, the Volador supports weights of up to 220 lbs (100 kg).
