How well does it go up hills with someone around 150 pounds riding?

It's better than I thought and I'm 165 pounds. If you look up the address "81 San Francisco Bay Trail, Berkeley, CA" on Google Maps, pan left to see the pedestrian bridge in the distance. This scooter handled the incline up and over that bridge each way with me just fine.

Max 150 lbs. as an adult under 150, I ride it and it's fun!!! My 4 kids LOVE it. Easy to ride. My 3 year old can drive it!!Have fun.

Fairly well,depending on the terrain. It doesn't climb hills and doesn't have brakes. Buy an extra battery and carry it along, when the first battery runs out then switch so you can avoid pushing it back home.

Haven't even used it yet, but I would guesstimate around 20-25 pounds. You wouldn't want to have to carry it up too many hills.

I'm 6'3" and I can ride pretty straight up. If you're over 200lbs, it won't go that fast on level ground. Certainly not up any inclines, without a foot push.

I'm 5'3" and 120 lbs. and I can ride it. As long as you aren't over the 145 lbs recommended weight I'd say it would work really well. I will say it doesn't fit in a backpack when folded, but it does make it easier to carry.

This answer depends on three factors. How heavy is the rider of the scooter, how fresh is the charge, and how steep is the hill? My 9 year old easily flys up hills at 95 lbs. and the charge easily lasts 35-45 minutes on smooth level terrain. My 240lb. frame needs a little kicking action to get up hills, but easily pulls me around on level ground. For the price, I don't think you'll be disappointed.

I land board with my B3 using 15mph winds. I way 160lb, so 15mhp winds is perfect for me. anything more is to much since I am still a noobie

yes..its very light so its good for many tricks. My only concern is its so light that a rider who has used heavier rides might be so strong for it they would have to re-learn their timing a little.

This bike will go 15mph on level ground,plenty fast enough for a good ride.I would not buy one because getting it repaired is next to impossible. I am 71 and love this bike however,getting parts to fix it is difficult and shops within 50miles from my home will not TOUCH IT! Buy local and make sure you will be able to get parts.

i weigh about 150 and it holds me. its a pretty thick layering of woods so its pretty durable.

It takes small hills very well, large hills are not what this scooter is made for.I am 205lbs. and it pulls me all over with out a problem, very good scooter for the money.

Ours is two years old and still runs like a top. My 9 year daughter rides it, but my son who is almost 13 is too big for it now. The bike works well for someone under about 150 pounds. For $300 you cant ask for that much. It helps if your Dad is handy.

I have a couple of those hills too. A lot of the hills in my area are in the 45 to 60 degree range. The bike handles them beautifully. Put it in low gear before you get to the hill. Be prepared to pedal. You can do it. I love this bike.

If the route is flat you're probably ok. I have the cruiser for riding around my neighborhood and hills are a little brutal with the single gear.

I would say no, It would be fine for an occasional commute, but for a regular 15 mile commute no. There is only one gear, and it is low so hills are quite a workout. and the seat is very firm and the tires are 20 inch so there is no suspension so you feel the road. If you are going to regularly commute 15 miles get one with a more comfortable seat and larger tires.
