SPEED AND WEIGHT LIMITATIONS

Speed and weight limits are set for your own safety. Please abide by the 

limits listed here in the manual.

• Maximum Speed: 15 mph 

• Maximum Supported Weight: 264 lbs

• Minimum Supported Weight: 44 lbs

OPERATING RANGE

The Journey can travel up to 12 miles on a fully charged battery under ideal 

riding conditions. The following are some of the major factors that will 

affect the operating range of your device:

• Terrain: Operating range is highest when riding on a smooth, flat surface. 

Riding uphill and/or on rough terrain will reduce the operating range 

significantly. 

• Weight: A lighter user will have a higher operating range than a heavier 

user.

• Ambient Temperature: Please ride and store the E-Scooter in 

recommended temperatures. This will increase operating range, battery 

life, and overall performance of your device.

• Speed and Riding Style: Maintaining a moderate and consistent speed 

while riding produces maximum operating range. Traveling at high speeds 

for extended periods of time, frequent starts and stops, and idling will 

decrease operating range.

WARNING

Riding the Journey while exceeding the 

weight limit may increase the possibility of 

injury or product damage.

WARNING

Proper use of your brake is vital to ensure 

safe, efficient stopping. To avoid misuse 

and potential injury, do not apply sudden 

or excessive force to your brake. Apply the 

brake gradually and give yourself enough 

room to come to a complete stop safely.
