About Speedway Riders NYC

We ridewhat we sell

We started in 2020 in Elmhurst, Queens, because getting across the city was broken. Today we are an online electric scooter and e-bike dealer shipping free to all 48 lower states — run by people who actually ride.

Our origin

We didn't set out to build a business.

We set out to solve a problem. Sitting in traffic, waiting on an overcrowded train, paying to park a car we barely used — the daily commute was broken. An electric scooter fixed it in a week, and we spent the next year telling anyone who would listen.

So we became the shop we wished had existed when we were the ones shopping: one run by riders who read the spec sheets, ask manufacturers the awkward questions, and won't put their name on a machine they wouldn't ride themselves.

What started in Elmhurst as a local obsession is now a nationwide online store. The name still says NYC because that is where it began — and the riders we serve are in every corner of the lower 48.

We only sell what we would ride.

How we got here

Queens to coast to coast.

No venture money and no grand plan. Riders told other riders, and we kept up.

  1. 2020

    It starts in Elmhurst

    A local passion project run out of Queens, built entirely on scooters we had already put our own miles on. Every sale started as a conversation, usually a long one.

  2. 2022

    Word travels past the neighborhood

    Riders outside New York started calling. Shipping replaced walk-ins, the catalog widened from commuters to performance machines, and the name stayed exactly as it was.

  3. 2024

    Direct with the brands

    We went direct with the manufacturers we already trusted. That is why a warranty claim you file with us reaches the people who actually built the scooter, instead of dying with a middleman.

  4. Today

    Online, nationwide

    We are 100% online, we ship free to all 48 lower states, and we hold to the same rule as day one: we only sell what we would ride.

Our mission

Making electric mobility accessible.

We believe the future of personal transport is electric — and that getting into it shouldn't be complicated, overpriced or intimidating. Our job is to get you onto the right ride, at the right price, with real support behind it. Sometimes that means selling you the commuter instead of the machine you came in asking about. We would rather keep the rider than the margin.

Nationwide access

Good mobility shouldn't be a privilege of big cities. Every zip code in the lower 48 gets the same catalog, the same pricing and the same advice.

Radical honesty

We will talk you out of the expensive scooter if a cheaper one covers your commute. Trust over transactions, every single time.

Community driven

Riders across the country and counting. We are not building a customer list — we are building something that changes how people get around.

Rider first

Every decision starts with one question: does this make the ride better? If the answer is no, we don't do it.

Straight talk

No showroom. No sales floor. No surprises.

Plenty of shops stay vague about what they actually are. Here is the whole picture, including the parts that don't flatter us.

What we are

  • An online store100% online. Every order ships direct to your door, anywhere in the 48 lower states, free.
  • Buying through official channelsYour serial number is valid and the manufacturer's warranty applies.
  • Riders, firstThe people who answer the phone ride these machines. The advice is free whether or not you buy.
  • Straight about priceThe price on the page is the price. Financing terms come from the provider and are shown before you commit.

What we are not

  • A showroomThere is nowhere to come and test ride. We would rather put that money into the price of the scooter than into a lease.
  • The manufacturerWarranties are the manufacturer's, not ours. We file and chase the claim for you, but we do not set the terms.
  • A 0% APR-on-everything lenderPay in 4 is genuinely 0% APR. Longer monthly plans carry a rate unless a promotion is running, and we won't pretend otherwise.
  • A shop that skips the credit checkEvery provider runs at least a soft check. It will not affect your score, but it does happen.
Selection standards

Not salesmen. Curators.

We carry 30+ brands — not because we list everything that exists, but because each one clears the same checklist before it goes on the site. We are a store, not a laboratory: what follows is what we read, verify and refuse, not testing we claim to have done ourselves.

Battery and charging

We look for UL-certified cells and published thermal and charge-cycle data. A battery with nothing published behind it doesn't make the list.

Motor and drivetrain

From 250 W commuters to dual-motor machines, we check the manufacturer's output and speed figures against independent testing before we repeat them to you.

Frame and build

Aircraft-grade aluminum, reinforced stems, published IP ratings. A brand that cuts corners structurally is an easy no.

Braking

Hydraulic discs, regenerative systems, ABS where it is offered. Stopping distance has to make sense for the top speed on the box.

Suspension and ride

Pneumatic tires, spring and hydraulic damping. A scooter that is quick but unridable over a pothole is not a commuter.

Warranty and parts

Every brand we carry is backed by a manufacturer warranty and a parts supply we can actually reach when something needs replacing.

Our brands

30+ brands. One standard.

Every riding style, from a folding commuter to a closed-course machine.

What comes with the ride.

The same on the cheapest commuter as on the fastest machine in the catalog.

Free shipping

Every order, every model, all 48 lower states. No minimums and no exceptions.

Financing at checkout

Affirm, Klarna and Afterpay. Pay in 4 is 0% APR; longer plans show their rate, and the limit comes from the provider.

14-day returns

An unused, unridden scooter in its original packaging can go back within 14 days of delivery.

Manufacturer warranty

For most brands: 12 months on the frame, 6 on the battery, 3 on the charger. We file the claim and chase it for you.

Support that rides

Call or text any time — our AI assistant answers 24/7 — and our team picks it up Mon–Sat, 10 AM–6 PM ET.

In their words

What our riders say.

Riders across the country. A few of them, in their own words.

First scooter, couldn't have picked better

Never owned a scooter before and I was nervous about buying something expensive sight unseen. Did the quiz, got the Hiboy S2 SE recommendation. Six months in and it has been zero problems. Speedway has a customer for life.

Kenji L.Jersey City, NJ · Oct 2025

Best scooter shop, no contest

Ordered the Hiboy TITAN Pro on Tuesday and had it Thursday. Setup was easy. The scooter handles NYC potholes like they are not even there. Customer service picked up on the first ring.

Marcus T.Brooklyn, NY · Mar 2026

Skeptical, then converted

Shipped to Texas in three days flat. I was skeptical ordering from a NYC shop but they proved me wrong. The NAVEE V40N arrived perfectly packed and rides like a dream. Their support team even called to check if I needed help with setup.

Straight answers

Questions about us.

Are you actually based in New York?
Speedway Riders NYC started in Elmhurst, Queens in 2020, and the name stayed. We are 100% online and ship free to all 48 lower states, so where we sit matters a lot less than how fast the scooter reaches you.
Can I come and see a scooter before I buy?
No. We do not run a showroom or a sales floor, and that is a large part of why our prices are what they are. What we do instead is talk: call, text or email and we will walk you through the real differences between any two models, including the reasons you might want the cheaper one.
What brands do you carry?
30+ brands and 200+ models, from folding commuters to closed-course machines: Aotos, ASAP, Ausom, Bugatti, Drivetron, E-TWOW, GSPACE, Gyroor, Hiboy, iENYRID, INMOTION, Joyor, Kaabo, KUGOO, Mini Walker, Molo, Nami Burn, Nanrobot, NAVEE, Phantom, Punk, Riding'Times, Segway, Talaria, Teewing, Teverun, Voro, WEPED, Wilson, YUME.
Do you ship nationwide or just to NYC?
All 48 lower states, free, on every order, with no minimums. Orders placed before 2 PM ET ship in one to two business days.
Do all models qualify for 0% APR financing?
Not all of them. Pay in 4 through Klarna or Afterpay is genuinely 0% APR. Longer monthly plans through Affirm, Klarna or Afterpay carry a rate unless a promotion is running, and the amount you can finance is set by the provider. Everything is shown before you commit.
Is there a credit check?
Yes — at least a soft one, with every provider. A soft check does not affect your credit score, and most riders get a decision in under a minute.
What is your return policy?
An unused, unridden scooter in its original packaging can be returned within 14 days of delivery. Transit damage is a separate and much faster route — report it as soon as the scooter arrives. Full detail is on the returns and exchanges page.
Who actually handles the warranty?
The manufacturer warrants the product; we file the claim and chase it for you. For most brands that means 12 months on the frame, 6 months on the battery and 3 months on the charger. We do not set those terms and we will never pretend the decision is ours.
Do you actually ride this stuff?
Yes, daily. Every recommendation you get on the phone comes from somebody who has ridden the model or its closest sibling. It is also why we will occasionally tell you not to buy the expensive one.
