The Disc Brake
Just like our readers we too got curious to know why does a electric scooter having 75 kmph as a top speed has been given a Disc Brake. When we spoke to Jeetender Sharma, MD, Okinawa Scooters about this, he explained that the its becuase of two reasons, firstly the weight of the scooter owing to the heavy battery and secondly the costumer feedback that they got from Ridge scooter (Launched in January 2017 ) .They saw a need and demand for Disc Brakes in this scooter.
