The award-winning E-Scooter, from the German producer GO!MATE stands out from the crowd with their eye-catching design, minimal weight and long-range potential. They are available in two versions, the ER1 and the more collapsible ER2. Either type can be ordered in a choice of three colours and all possess all-terrain capabilities.
The GO!MATE E-Scooter stæp has already won two design awards in the years since its introduction. 2018 it was victorious in the renowned 'reddot' design award and 2020 came top in the 'German Design Award'! The EVO models are a further development of the popular 'PLUS' e-scooter model. All of the special features were retained, the only difference being a more powerful 350W motor is now included. In spite of this its sensationally low weight of 13.2kg could be maintained in its design!
- Amongst the lightest of E-scooters available.

E-SCOOTERS FROM GO!MATE: FEATHERWEIGHT FUN!
Cars and bicycles can quickly seem cumbersome and unpractical in the modern urban environment, especially in combination with the challenges posed by public transport compatibility. Their total kerb weight of 13kg makes the GO!MATE E-scooter stæp not only light to carry, this can be easily managed due to the folding mechanism making them collapsible. The ER1 allows the handlebars to be neatly folded away, the ER2 has an additional folding function at the front end of the scooter. This makes them both ideal partners while mastering the urban travelling environment.
The GO!MATE E-scooters staep are equipped with a footboard made from a multi-layered laminated wood. Similar to the skateboard concept, this board is designed to be flexible. This trick replaces heavy parts that also wear, such as conventional shock absorber systems. When the board is combined with such large pneumatic tyres it provides the effect of seeming to surf along the road! Reliable and secure deceleration is provided by the hydraulic 140mm disc brakes, from TEKTRO, at both the front and rear wheels. The innovative frame geometry is also a special feature of their design. A classic fixed hardtail at the rear with a 350W motor in a 12” wheel, combined with a single-sided fork suspension at the front with a 16” wheel. This high-tech machine is not only guaranteed fun, it is also handmade in Germany for increased durability! The range of this aluminium-framed E-scooter is estimated at around 35km. The rechargeable battery is removable and can also be securely locked in position when mounted. The acceleration is governed by an easily-operable thumb lever throttle.
Currently these E-scooters are available in a choice of three colour schemes: Black, blue and orange.
E-SCOOTER ER1 AND ER2: THE DIFFERENCE
Potential range, weight and speed! Both of the GO!MATE E-scooters staep have an almost identical specification, apart from a fine difference: the ER2 can be folded twice, making it more compact and easier to transport when fully-collapsed.
ALL-TERRAIN E-SCOOTER: OFF-ROAD VERSION
You prefer to take the naturally scenic route? No problem! Thanks to its larger than normal wheels, tyres and innovative suspension the off-road version of the GO!MATE E-scooter staep extends the riding fun to unpaved surfaces! Through the addition of a carbon-fibre flexboard and knobbly 'Blackjack' tyres, gravel, roots and short cuts through the trees are the ideal pathways for the ultimate in riding fun!
