ST5 is an electric scooter designed for urban commuting. The frame is made of automotive grade carbon steel, joined by precision sheet metal work and concealed connectors. A four stage suspension system, adapted from automotive damper arms, absorbs shocks on rough roads. Safety is supported by front and rear disc brakes, an electronic braking system, traction control and auto sensing headlights. A 3.5 inch display is integrated with the handlebars, and Bluetooth proximity sensing allows keyless unlocking. The black and gold finish reflects sports aesthetics.
