Electric scooters

Working name: OpenScoot. The third category in the Open Consumables device knowledge graph.

What's here

  • Units, the scooters themselves, with replacement tires, brake wear parts, tubes, and grip tape listed by interface.
  • Tires, OEM and aftermarket pneumatic, tubeless self-healing, and solid honeycomb formats, with the scooters they fit.
  • Brake pads, disc-brake pads for pad-bearing scooter calipers, with drum shoes kept separate.
  • Drum brake shoes, front-drum friction assemblies for the Segway-Ninebot Max G30 family.
  • Inner tubes, replacement tubes for tubed pneumatic tires in the Xiaomi 8.5-inch slot.
  • Rotors, disc-brake rotors keyed to diameter and bolt pattern.
  • Grip tape, pre-cut adhesive foot mats for scooter deck profiles.

Status

Reference layer only. OpenScoot is a deferred measurement subproject; activation depends on OpenBrush producing a published measured baseline first. This category records provenance-tagged compatibility data sourced from manufacturer pages and aftermarket listings, with no project measurement claims.

Coverage includes Xiaomi model references and Segway-Ninebot replacement parts, with separate entries where front and rear tires carry different manufacturer part numbers. Missing replacement links mean that no adequately sourced fit claim is recorded here. Pull requests welcome; see the data README for the schema.

Scope

In scope for the reference layer:

  • Chinese-IoT cluster consumer e-scooters (Xiaomi, Segway-Ninebot)
  • the wheel / axle / rim interface between scooter and tire
  • ETRTO / imperial size, tire type (pneumatic, self-healing, solid honeycomb), tubed vs tubeless, as disclosed by the manufacturer or marketplace
  • the caliper / pad interface for stock disc-brake scooters, as disclosed by the manufacturer, repair communities, or marketplace listings
  • the drum / shoe interface for stock drum-brake scooters, as disclosed by the manufacturer, repair communities, or marketplace listings
  • inner tubes for tubed pneumatic tires, keyed to the same axle / wheel-mount slot as the matching tire
  • brake discs / rotors where diameter and bolt-pattern claims are discoverable
  • pre-cut adhesive deck grip tape / foot mats where sellers identify a scooter-specific deck profile

Out of scope at this stage:

  • ride-quality, range, top-speed, or climb-angle claims
  • independent verification of motor power, weight, or wheel-size specs (manufacturer claims only, until measured)
  • battery packs (different regulatory and safety regime; deferred per the subproject scope notes)
  • generic rolls of skateboard or non-slip tape that require trimming by the buyer
  • decorative deck skins where the compatibility surface is mainly aesthetic
  • tubes for tubeless self-healing tires unless the unit has an explicit tubed conversion entry
  • hydraulic brake upgrades and non-OEM caliper conversions
  • repair parts: hinges, dashboards, fenders, lights, levers
  • Western-brand scooters (Hiboy, Apollo, Gotrax, Unagi): fail the ecosystem-selection prerequisite

A note on tire sizing

Match the exact replacement part and the wheel position listed by its manufacturer. A nominal tire size alone does not establish a shared rim, valve arrangement or fit between scooters. Keep an ETRTO designation separate from an imperial size label; this archive does not manufacture a bead-seat size by converting an approximate outside diameter.

The reference does not extend a tire fit claim to brake parts, a complete wheel, or a deck mat. Those are separate interfaces and need separate evidence.

Missing a device or replacement part?

Send a short report with the exact model code or part name. Better sources and contradictory fit evidence are welcome too. For a dead link or a claim that needs checking, just identify the problem. GitHub requires sign-in; you can also copy a report and prepare it for your user. Maintainers can handle the data-file edits.
