Hi, I’m Raymond Nolen, an independent electric scooter reviewer and researcher based in Brooklyn, New York. I’ve been using electric scooters as a primary mode of transportation since 2019 and have personally tested a wide range of models—from entry-level commuter scooters to high-performance options designed for long-distance riding and heavier users. My work focuses on hands-on testing, real-world performance analysis, and practical safety guidance. I evaluate scooters based on ride quality, durability, battery performance, braking systems, and overall value for money to help readers make informed purchasing decisions. At eScooterInsider, I publish in-depth reviews, comparison guides, and educational content aimed at helping riders choose the right scooter for their needs while avoiding common mistakes. All opinions shared are based on independent research and personal experience, regardless of any affiliate relationships.
