What is the correct PSI level for my Apollo Scooter?
Maintaining the correct tire pressure is one of the most important things you can do to keep your Apollo Pro riding smoothly, safely, and efficiently.
Proper PSI ensures better traction, longer tire life, stronger puncture resistance, and protects the motor and rims from unnecessary wear, especially since the tires are directly mounted on the hub motor.
| Rider Weight | Front Tire | Rear Tire | Why It Works |
|---|---|---|---|
| Under 140 lbs (63 kg) | 28–30 PSI | 30–32 PSI | Softer ride, better shock absorption, still safe for the motor. |
| 140–180 lbs (63–82 kg) | 30–32 PSI | 32–34 PSI | Balanced feel—good grip, comfort, and motor protection. |
| 180–220 lbs (82–100 kg) | 32–34 PSI | 34–35 PSI | Firmer pressure helps prevent rear tire squish and rim damage. |
| Over 220 lbs (100+ kg) | 34–35 PSI | 35 PSI (max) | Higher PSI prevents bottoming out or sidewall strain. |
Tips to Get the Most Out of Your Tires:
Always check pressure when tires are cool (before riding).
Use a reliable tire pressure gauge—accuracy matters.
Re-check PSI every 1–2 weeks, especially if the weather changes.
For colder climates, consider adding 1–2 PSI to compensate for air pressure loss.
