Things to think about when choosing your EUC for food delivery
Battery range. The most important thing to think about is the range you need, because the more range you get, the more money you earn and the more deliveries you can do. If you have done this job before with a scooter or a bicycle, then hopefully you already have some estimated range requirements.
Most electric unicycles can do 40-60 kilometers without any issue when you are riding in the 25-35 km/h speed range. Things that affect range the most? – Speed, riding style, road quality and profile, riders’ weight, and outside temperature.
EUC companies test their range estimates (that are seen on our site too) with a very light rider in a warm temperature (24C or above) and on a flat road. And what is most important, is they use the speed of 15 km/h for range testing to get the best possible result. So, take that into account when looking at the promised range numbers.
Fast charging is also a thing to consider. Many EUC models offer dual-port charging with two standard chargers. With dual chargers, you can charge your wheel faster during the day while on break or when the battery is drained. A more expensive choice is to buy a separate fast charger. Those can cut charging times down to 2hrs depending on the battery size and charger model. Separate fast chargers cost from 100€ to 400€.
Weather conditions. Where are you located? Many places in Europe get a lot of rain in the summer and snow during winter. No EUC company gives a warranty if the cause of damage is made by water ingress. We offer a waterproofing service for most of the EUCs we sell and if you scroll down to our recommendation section, we try to assess the water-resistance of the models we recommend.
When there is snow or ice, riding with a street tire is very difficult if not impossible. For winter riding an off-road tire is recommended (sadly not all EUC’s can be fitted with an off-road tire), and we offer different tire options and replacement services through our Voltride Service workshop.
