    Welcome to the community @holgate001

    Sorry to hear you are having trouble with this, have you tried looking up your model on the internet to see if you can find that information on the website of the manufacturer? Or perhaps you could contact the manufacturer / seller directly to see if they can help?

    I’ve tried online and had no success to date. I was hoping someone has been down the same route and found the answer.

    Hi @holgate001 - & welcome to the community. I've looked online, & at your scooter's manual & can't find the tyre pressure either. I watched a Youtube video, not realising that it was by an Australian firm, however they said the maximum tyre pressure, such as 50psi, should be written on the side of the tyre, & just wondered if that might the case for yours. However, never have the pressure to the maximum as it can burst an older tyre, or wear out the middle of a newer tyre (too little pressure wearing out the sides).
    Other than that, I would contact Electric Mobility: Telephone: 01460 258100 www.electricmobility.co.uk

    I’ve just phoned Electric Mobility and they say the pressure front and rear is 28psi. Hope this helps anyone else looking for tyre pressures.
