Are Gotrax and Golabs one-in-the-same?

Seems they have a pretty good rep.

EDIT: Yes, they are the same: GoLabs, Inc, DBA GoTrax.
I've used GoTrax scooters and I like them.

Here's an even better deal for fast Slickdealers on the GoTrax G2 for $220:

This ia basically a kids scooter. 176lbs max load and 12 mph. I just purchased my first scooter, an Apollo Air Pro, mostly for my wife to commute to work. She's on the more cautious (aka scared to go too fast) side and even she thinks 12 mph is really slow. LMAO

Nah, it's fast enough and perfectly suitable for an adult up to 176 lbs - this covers most people on Slickdeals. Plus, there's no better deal right now for anything with these specs except the GoTrax G2 one I posted in this same thread. Most people would be better off going 12 mph than 15 or 18 anyway, since they're not nearly as careful as they should be, imho. nod

I have an 18 mph scooter and early on it was "stuck" on "low" speed 12 mph, but it was still fast enough for me.
I didn't mind at all! laugh out loudLMAOlaugh out loudLMAO

Yes, and at least you feel like you are moving faster than you would on a bike. I had my wife stay on the economy setting when she first started riding which I limited to 10mph. She told me she felt like it took forever to get to work.LMAO

This is 100% aimed at children, I've never seen a scooter for adults with such a low weight capacity and such small tires. The Amazon link even specifies for kids and teens.

12mph is slow, 7 mile range means you'll be lucky to get 5 miles in reality, and that's if you're a small framed Slickdealer under 176#, which I've got to assume most of us our not.

As always, postings are appreciated, but OP's defense and response to every post has me questioning if there's not some ulterior motives at play.

The Vibe is the same as the G2 -- the only differences are the color patterns and the quick release pin. The G2 (Black) can be found on Walmart for $198.

Nope, not even close. Nothing remotely similar is even in stock, let alone under $200.

Post a link if you want to prove otherwise. You won't.

I must secretly own the GoTrax company.

For that matter, I must own Razor as well!

Hint: Learn from it and try to be kind as well. Wink

It is now $228 for the G2 at Walmart, with some limited pickup. It goes in and out of stock for shipping.

And yes, the G2 and the Vibe are the same scooter (I had both), except for the colors and quick-release pin.
