Questions and answers
- Which is better for a rider 5'3" and over 200 lb?
- The ESKUTE. Its height range runs to 6'3" and it is rated to 360 lb, while the Jasion tops out at 5'5" and publishes no load rating.
- Which has more power?
- The Jasion, at 2000W peak versus 750W on the ESKUTE. That helps on hills with a heavier rider, though the Jasion is capped at 22 MPH and the ESKUTE at 20 MPH.
- Which rides smoother on rough roads?
- The Jasion, which has dual suspension. The ESKUTE has front suspension only, so bumps reach the rear wheel and rider.
- Is the ESKUTE worth the extra $140?
- Yes if you are taller than 5'5", weigh over 200 lb, or need the 360 lb rating and 60-mile range. If you fit the Jasion's height range, it saves money and adds dual suspension.
- Which goes farther on a charge?
- The ESKUTE, at up to 60 miles versus 55 miles for the Jasion. Both figures assume favorable conditions, so expect less with hills, throttle use, or a heavy rider.
- Can a short rider use the ESKUTE?
- Its range starts at 5'1", so a rider under that will struggle to reach the ground. The Jasion fits riders down to 4'7".
