p with Lime (the company behind LimeBike) and will expand scooter rentals to all over the nation, including Rockford, according to WIFR. These little devils are lightweight and travel up to 15 m.p.h. but the rental fee is significantly more than a LimeBike. A one-hour scooter rental would cost you $9 versus $1/hour for a LimeBike. A full battery should last about 20 miles.

No dated for Rockford delivery has been confirmed.
