That awesome independent rear suspension: this is the heart of this device, and once you get on and you ride it, you’ll understand why it’s such a big deal. You can carve and cut very sharp and quick corners on this vehicle, and it remains stable at top speed - unlike many other stand-up scooters I’ve tried. Once you learn how to shift your body weight and turn by changing your center of gravity, you’re not driving anymore - you’re surfing, and it is exhilarating. For those that have always wanted to feel what it’s like to surf, or snowboard, or skateboard, get on a Zuumer - you’ll get to a similar feeling with a much quicker learning curve.

A 1000 watt brushless front hub motor: This thing’s got power - 20mph top speeds are for real, not just a claim. And the unit didn’t slow down all that much going uphill. The fact that it’s integrated into the front hub makes this motor more efficient, less prone to wear, quieter, and easier to maintain than a motor with a chain or belt drive.

Yes it does, and I can't think of a better execution of driveline (none). I have really started to like hub motors for certain applications and speeds.
