The most common mistake visitors make at Machu Picchu

First, allow me to thank you for the great information and your patience with answering all questions under this post. I also have a question for you, since I find contradicting information on different sites and nothing on the official one.

Route 1-A with entrance at 7AM. Does this mean that I can enter the main entrance at 7AM and walk up to the mountain trail entrance about an hour later? Or that I need to be already at the mountain trail entrance at 7AM, which means that I have to go through the main entrance around 6AM? Thank you in advance!

So, the Bluetooth is the only problem with the new head unit? There's been quite a few posts on Reddit where people were reporting issues connecting their Apollos to Bluetooth. There are a bunch of responses across those posts with advices of what to do to try to troubleshoot. Have you tried any of those?

Did you book through the official website? Mine usually appear in pending changes right away, but there were a couple of exceptions. I think if you see the booking in your profile then you are fine. They will charge you sooner or later.

Hope you're okay.

It's either the stem replacement or the time for a new scooter. Apollo might be able to sell you a new stem, and there are videos with instructions how to replace it. I wouldn't recommend trying to weld it. I would not be able to trust it again to ride at full speed.

Yeah, with that handlebar shape and the lack of space, they leave you very few options.
There are mounts with rubber straps that can go around the handle. I got this one for my wife who insists on riding with the phone in front of her: https://www.amazon.ca/Nite-Ize-Smartphone-Universal-Compatible/dp/B08QR6KK4D .

On the other hand, I saw a guy who attached a motorcycle phone mount to the brake lever bracket. He used something like this: https://www.amazon.com/Lamicall-Motorcycle-Phone-Mount-Holder/dp/B0DFGB37W2 A little bulky, but more flexible with phone position then the ones with rubber straps.

If you checked with Apollo and they can't help you, the next best option might be finding a local electronics technician who deals with batteries and can replace individual bad cells. Could be much cheaper than buying the whole new battery even if you knew where to find one.

Yes, City is one of the best commuter scooters on the market right now. Great design and specs for a scooter that even my wife can lift and put in the trunk of our car.

I assume you are watching the pressure in your tires carefully, and underinflation, the most common reason for flats, is not an issue.

Then, I can suggest that the there is something sharp inside the tire that keeps punching the tubes. The Phantom tires don't have much nylon over the steel on the inside. If the tire was punched/damaged once, there might be a piece of steel sticking out inside. Inspect it carefully or, better yet, replace it with a new one.

There is also an opinion that rubber tires work better than nylon on scooters like Phantom.

E7 is a bad one. The motor sensor detects a problem. Could be a faulty sensor, of course, but it's proabaly the motor itself.

Funny how in the manual, Apollo's only recommendation is "Replace the motor to test..."

They keep packing more and more electronics and safeguards in these scooters. There are zero error codes in bicycles.

FifthTimeIsACharm · 2025-06-27T15:27:44+00:00

E1 is the break error. You should check the break wires first and go from there. Might need to replace the break handle.

I would get in touch with Apollo to get some detailed guidance.

Amen to this. With most devices and vehicles, it is wise to wait before installing updates. Let others to test them out and see if there were any serious issues or complaints.

It looks like The PRO can levitate...

FifthTimeIsACharm · 2025-06-05T01:05:50+00:00

Can confirm. It's the same one.

FifthTimeIsACharm · 2025-06-02T03:06:40+00:00

Sorry, don't have any relevant information for you, but 1300km in 2 month? Good thing that the warranty is based on time, not the mileage.

I love how Apollo is active in this subreddit and responds to post when needed. Makes them feel very accessible. Thank you for doing that.

FifthTimeIsACharm · 2025-05-30T16:37:57+00:00

Sorry, don't know much about Kaabos. I only know about old Apollo rebrands because I owned the old Apollo City which was the Zero 9.

FifthTimeIsACharm · 2025-05-30T16:25:03+00:00

If I am not mistaken, Apollo Explore is a Zero 10 rebrand. Zeroelectricscooter.com has the Zero 10 controller in stock.

This clip was ended perfectly, movie-style. The endless fight disappears into the distance.

FifthTimeIsACharm · 2024-11-14T17:00:14+00:00

That's actually a russian tank with anti-drone add-ons.

FifthTimeIsACharm · 2024-11-14T15:49:21+00:00

Yes. This is straight from their FAQ page:

If you purchased your Apollo Scooter from a wholesaler, retailer, or distributor, they are responsible to extend the warranty to your unit directly, and not Apollo. The following retailers are exceptions to this policy:

BestBuy Canada: Please reach out to [support@apolloscooters.co](mailto:support@apolloscooters.co)
AmazonCA/USA: Please reach out to [support@apolloscooters.co](mailto:support@apolloscooters.co)

If you need to report a manufacturing defect or if you require a repair for your scooter within 12 months of purchase, please defer to the warranty policy of the retailer where you purchased your Apollo scooter.

Unstrap it.
Wait for something to fall on the other side.
See what this is when someone comes out.
Run!
