I landed on Apollo as a company because it fit two qualities I really wanted from a scooter, a quality build, and high water resistance. The Apollo pro has both and dose it beautifully. There are cheaper alternatives but nothing collectively more put together than this thing. I have ridden a few and the pro is a feeling of freedom and takes range anxiety out of the picture. I just ride when I feel like it and it'???s got enough to go. Trust me 45 is fast enough on a scooter
