What we put on it, and why.
The parts that decide how it rides. Tap a marker to see the part up close.
A rear hub motor that takes it from 0 to 15 mph in about five seconds and holds a hill.
Ridden in the dirt before it was sold in the shop.
Our own design, so it gets our own cover.
We designed the Mosquito, we specified every part on it and we service it in our own shops. That is why it carries three years of warranty instead of the one year on the brands we carry.
Designed by Wilson's. Serviced by Wilson's.
Top speed, range and peak power side by side; the one you are on is lit.

The 29 lb electric scooter you fold with one hand.
The Mosquito is our own electric scooter, so this page does not repeat a manufacturer's claims. It lets you handle the thing: fold it, look inside it, set up the display, plan your commute on it and see where it fits when you are not riding. 29 lb, 25-plus mph, 22 miles documented, and a fold that takes seconds.
Move the lens. Everything under the skin, drawn where it sits.
A 500W rear hub motor with 700W at peak, sealed inside the rear wheel. A 48V 9.6Ah pack, 461Wh of cells laid flat in the deck where the weight belongs. A controller ahead of the latch, springs at both ends, a drum brake in the hub beside the regen, and a colour display with the thumb throttle on top.
We specified every one of these parts, which is why we can draw them for you, and why every one of them is on our shelves rather than on order from a distributor.
A working copy of the display. Pick a gear, hold the throttle.
Five gears with a settable cap, cruise control and zero-start are all set from the display. This is the same logic, so you know what you are getting before you walk in.
Five gears, one cap. Gear 1 is a walking-pace crawl for a crowded sidewalk or a campus. Gear 5 is the full 25-plus mph. The cap is set from the display, so a family can share one Mosquito with different limits, and a rider in a 15 mph city can stay legal without thinking about it.
Cruise and zero-start. Cruise holds a speed on a long straight so your thumb can rest. Zero-start decides whether the throttle works from a standstill or only once you have kicked off. Both are switches on the display. Try them above: with zero-start off, the throttle waits for a kick.
Move the sliders. The range moves with them.
Our documented figure is 22 miles: a 165 lb rider holding a constant 15 mph on the flat. Real riding has stops, hills and a heavier bag. This works it out from our figure, not from a brochure.
41.5 by 13 by 5.65 inches, folded. Pick a place.
Folded, the Mosquito is a flat bar with wheels. That shape is the whole point: it goes where a bag goes.
Boot of a compact car, lid up
Feet stay clear, nothing to trip on
Stands on its end or lies flat

Carry it, ride up, roll out
Light enough to carry. Balanced enough to carry far.
Twenty-nine pounds is the number to hold on to. It is light enough to take one-handed up a flight of stairs, through a turnstile or into a car boot without a second person. The carrying handle sits at the balance point, so the folded electric scooter hangs level instead of swinging into your leg. That sounds like a small thing until you are holding it for three flights.
Three things you will feel in the first block.
Solid tires that never puncture, springs at both ends, and three ways to stop. Press and hold the spring to see what the suspension does.
Three ways to stop
Regenerative braking from the motor first, which also puts charge back. A drum brake inside the rear hub, sealed from the weather. A step-on brake over the rear fender for the day you want it. All three are on the runway above.
Springs, front and rear
A coil on the fork and a coil under the deck take the joints, drains and patched asphalt a city commute is made of. Hold the button and watch the travel.
Solid tires, front and rear
No punctures, ever, and nothing to pump, patch or check. The Mosquito is built for a commute that has to work every day, and a tire that cannot go flat is the first part of that.
Real, unboxed, today. Drag through them.

What changes when the shop designed the electric scooter.
We sell a lot of brands. This one is ours, and there are three practical consequences worth stating rather than implying.
Carried brands get a year through us. Rides we designed get three, because we are the ones standing behind the design instead of relaying a claim to somebody else's warranty department.
Every part on the Mosquito is modular, and we stock them because we specified them. There is no waiting on a distributor to decide whether a part exists in the country.
Solid tires, a 461Wh pack, five gears, a drum brake in the hub: those were decisions, and every one has a reason we can give you across a counter.

Pick it up before you buy it.

Wilson's Mosquito, answered.
How far does the Mosquito really go?
Twenty-two miles under test conditions, which means a 165 lb rider holding a constant 15 mph. In real mixed riding with stops, hills and faster gears it is closer to nineteen. We publish both because the second number is the one you will live with.
How fast is it?
Over 25 mph in top gear, reaching 15 mph in 5.1 seconds and 20 mph in 8.1. There are five selectable gears, so you can cap it lower whenever you want to.
How heavy is it, and can I really carry it?
29 lb, with a balanced carrying handle built into the folded shape. Most riders carry it one-handed up a flight of stairs without much thought. Come in and pick one up rather than taking our word for it.
How small does it fold?
41.5 by 5.65 by 13 inches, in seconds and without tools. That fits under a desk, in a car boot, or beside you on a train.
Why solid tires instead of air?
Because a commuter has to work on a Tuesday morning, and solid tires cannot puncture. Spring suspension at both ends does the comfort work, so you get the puncture-proof tire and a composed ride together.
How does it stop?
Three ways. Regenerative braking through the throttle, which also returns a little charge, a rear drum brake, and a rear step-on brake. In traffic, more than one way to stop is the point rather than redundancy.
What can I set on the display?
Speed cap by gear, plus cruise control and zero-start, which are both optional. We ship with the safer defaults and will change either for you in the shop in about a minute.
What is zero-start?
It decides whether the motor engages from a standstill or whether you have to kick off first. Off is the more predictable setting for a new rider; on is quicker away from a light once you are used to it.
How long does it take to charge?
Five to six hours from empty on the 48V 9.6Ah pack.
What is the maximum rider weight?
We do not currently publish one, and we are not going to estimate it. If you are near the upper end of what an electric scooter this size normally takes, call any shop and we will get you a firm answer before you buy.
Can it be ridden in the rain?
It carries an IPx5 rating, so light rain is fine. Avoid standing water and heavy storms. One safety point worth stating plainly: never charge an electric scooter that is wet, or one whose battery looks swollen or damaged. Bring it straight in to us instead.
Does it need assembling?
No. It ships ready to ride: unfold it and go.
What warranty does it come with?
Three years, because the Mosquito is a Wilson's design. Brands we carry rather than design come with one year through us. We handle any claim ourselves rather than passing you to somebody else.
Who services it, and can you get parts?
Our own technicians at all six shops, with express service at every one. Every part on the Mosquito is modular and we stock them, because we specified them. We also service any brand, whether you bought it from us or not.
How does it compare to the electric scooters you carry from other brands?
On weight, very well: 29 lb with a 25 mph top speed is a hard combination to find. It is the one to choose when the electric scooter has to be carried as well as ridden: stairs, a train, an office. If yours will live outdoors and never be lifted, we carry longer-range electric scooters too, and we will show you both in the shop.
