| Who you're buying from | Retailer or reseller | Australian owned and operated |
| Components | Unbranded, whatever's cheapest that month | Cells from Samsung, EVE and DMEGC. Parts we'd ride ourselves |
| Support | Retailer dependent, often forwarded overseas | 7 days a week, direct with our own team |
| Warranty | 6-12 months typical | 24-month frame, 12-month electrics |

We Don't Cut Corners On Parts
We work directly with the manufacturer. That means we choose what goes into these scooters, and we only fit parts we'd ride ourselves. No wishy-washy off-brand components, no swapping in whatever's cheapest that month to protect a margin. Cells come from Samsung, EVE and DMEGC. The brakes, the suspension, the frame, all of it is specced to last, because the cheapest version of any of those is the one that fails first.

Such a great way to commute to work and back home. Falling more in love with each ride. So fun!
Such a relief knowing TCC is available at anytime to chat possible future concerns and fixes.
Kunanyi / Mount Wellington is a towering 1,271-meter peak forming the backdrop of Hobart, Tasmania
And so this was the BullAnts KAIJU Tassie Mountain Challenge.
The attempt to ride to the top of the mountain will be considered in future
The plan for this trip was to travel from my home in Blackmans Bay (100m above sea level), South of Hobart and travel up the shortest route to the small rural / residential locality of Fern Tree (425m above sea level). I considered that because of the steep road with some basic gravel road base, it might get there. I carried a 2nd battery as insurance. The Fern Tree Tavern has a warm fire and great food and beer
Challenge accepted, on we went......
Not only did it make it to the destination at Fern Tree, I tested it further to the next stop on the mountain up further to a location called the springs.
The details to follow are worth a look on Google Earth.
This trip definitely showed the capability of the Kaiju.
58kms
3hrs travel up and down with additional time for 30min lunch break at The Springs
Total trip -
Blackmans Bay to the Springs 14.4km
Fern Tree to The Springs 6.4km
Springs back to Fern Tree 6.4km
Fern Tree to 2nd battery swap 2.9km at Menuggana Road (Distance 1st Battery 31km)
Menuggana intersection to Longley 8.8km
Longley to Margate 10.1km
Margate to Home at Blackmans Bay 8.6km
58km est total. 30% power left on second battery. Mostly down hill easy going to Margate.
More stats'
1st battery 31kms mostly uphill
2nd battery 27kms mostly down hill
Height start (Home Blackmans Bay) 100m above sea level
The Springs - Mt Wellington (Kunanyi) 720m above sea level
Total rise 620m at start to highest point.
Trip elevation included maximum height 720m (old Springs Hotel site) above sea level down to 3m ASL (Margate).
Stopped at the Lost Freight Cafe at the Springs for the special Hot Chocolate and a pie 🥧 from Nigel and his crew. Lost Freight Cafe https://share.google/NZv0PjjkRDgybW6lE
Battery swap - From the Fern Tree Tavern (Huon Rd), the distance to the Menuggana Road turn-off is approximately 2.9 km. This intersection was the battery swap point.
Challenge notes: this is definitely a serious challenge for any Escooter. The KAIJU handled this extreme journey much better than expected and definitely exceeded way above my expectations.
An outstanding result. The power to get up this mountain was seriously put to the highest test.
The use of 25kmph top speed was used 50% average on the way up and 100% the way down with the second battery.
Steep sections used 15kmph 2nd speed rear wheel to conserve power. Especially needed on the gravel road section.
The result was a great adventure testing the technology by putting it to the ultimate limits up one of the countries most spectacular mountains.
Its bloody cold at this time of year. But snow trousers and a good jacket and gloves proved their value.
After this expedition the KAIJU definately transcends to a Mountain God
Next Challenge will be to get to the summit at 1,271 metres (4,170 feet) above sea level. That will be a massive ask but definitely worth having a go.
Also a snow run up on the Mountain will be scheduled. Will have to sort out some tyre studs for better grip on the ice.
Anyone taken a Kaiju into a snowscape?
Will try to get some video as well.
What a bloody awesome beast!!!!
Honestly, make this scooter your next scooter purchase! You’re mad if you go elsewhere. My street has a steep hill and it powered up that hill! This scooter goes hard. The speed, the durability, you can’t go wrong.
It’s great for prospecting and running the dog! Absolutely cheering!
One of the best experiences i had riding off-road and that was with the kaiju 😍🔥
Losing my licence for three months was a pretty frustrating experience. As someone who spends most of his working week driving around Melbourne meeting clients, I was genuinely concerned about how much it would impact both my business and my day-to-day life.
After a bit of research, I ended up at The Simple Commute, and I couldn’t be happier with the decision. The team were fantastic to deal with from the very beginning. No pressure, no nonsense, just good advice and a genuine willingness to help me find the right solution.
I ended up purchasing a Kaiju scooter and, to be honest, it has completely exceeded my expectations. What was supposed to be a temporary replacement for my car has become something I genuinely enjoy using. It’s powerful, comfortable, handles rough paths and trails with ease, and has proven to be incredibly practical for getting around Melbourne’s eastern suburbs.
Over the past few days I’ve already covered a huge amount of ground on it, and it’s given me the confidence that the next three months are going to be far easier than I originally thought.
A big thank you to the team at The Simple Commute for their help, advice and service. I can highly recommend both the Kaiju and the awesome people at The Simple Commute.
This is my first scooting purchase at 60+ , found the crew very informative, scooter received within a week to Tas, looks like quality, charged up and had a couple of rides, really pleased so far
I’ve bought this scooter from them and their after-service is why I would choose to buy from them again.
I needed a scooter to commute to work, and I hate buying cheap, unsafe crap. I spent hours upon hours researching e-scooters which must have caused the ads for TSC to come up on my feed.
I spent a few more days reading reviews, comparing models and specs before deciding that the Aurora was best for my work commute needs. I was impressed with the availability of spare parts, the strong focus on delivering quality, and the lack of bullshit. That many 5 star reviews can’t be wrong.
Blowing over a thousand bucks on a purchase is always nerve wracking, so I tested their WhatsApp response to see ask how long it would take to arrive. I got a response within minutes, which calmed my nerves significantly. Better yet, my order was delivered within 3 working days. Amazing. A week after I received my Aurora, they were still responding to my queries within minutes.
I did a test drive, worked out the speed settings, tightened things up, customised my settings, and started using it for work. I’m 105KG and 5’11”. The handlebar height was perfect for me and there were no issues with the power or suspension. The ride is smooth, comfortable and my thumb is thankful for the cruise control. Travelled 6km to work and back, and the battery bar was still full.
The Aurora is just a well thought out, well built, no nonsense and, best of all, street legal e-scooter. It even looks classy enough that cyclists don’t give me sour looks. I am confident that TSC is a company that is going to go the distance and I can’t wait to pass down my Aurora to my kids one day so that I can continue supporting this Aussie business.
I bought this to use around the farm. It is silent for checking livestock, it handles the dirt tracks easily. Due to a accident I can't sit on a bike or in a ute, so standing on the scooter has helped me get around.
Customer service has been awesome when asking questions as there hasn'tbeen any problems. Delivery to regional NSW was very fast. This scooter is very solid and well build. I give this 5 stars👍
cheers Phil
The simple commute …… well I got the edgerunner ….. it’s fast, it’s powerful, it’ pushes hard, . Customer service has been good when buying it but any outside questions had been answered after purchase .
It certainly feels stable and effortless when on it. I have big test for it this week so let’s see . Haven’t stopped loving it and a long term investment for some fun and outback time ….
It’s great not to deal with Asian / Chinese imported machines .
One piece of advice I was given when looking was buy Australian only . Took me three years of research. So it’s worth putting time into it.
So here’s a personal experience with TSC of my own. I ordered the Kaiju and super impressed with it. Easy to ride and very capable off road. TSC was so easy to deal with and will get my business again when buy a scooter for my wife very soon. Only downside is my son has a Segway ZT3 pro and I get stuck having to ride his scooter because he’s taken off on my Kaiju😂
The Kaiju Simple Commute e-scooter has seriously exceeded my expectations. The build quality is outstanding everything feels solid, durable, and designed to handle more than just smooth city streets. It’s powerful without being overwhelming, and the performance really shines when you take it off-road.
Where I live, there are a lot of hills and uneven terrain, and this scooter handles all of it without any issues. I was especially surprised when it got one of my family members who’s over 100kg up a very steep hill with ease >30 degrees.
The ground clearance and suspension are standout features. It handles curbs, gravel, bumps, and even small jumps effortlessly. Nothing really fazes it, it just absorbs the terrain and keeps going. If you’re someone who likes a bit of adventure in your ride, this is easily one of the best off-road scooters out there.
It’s also very user-friendly. The controls are intuitive, the menu is very easy to navigate, and it’s simple to move around when powered on.
On top of that, Simple Commute’s communication and service have been excellent, which adds confidence to the purchase.
Overall, it’s well worth the money. I’d absolutely buy from TSC team again.
I found that the instruction booklet was vague in the description of items particularly the NFC Card which turn out to be non- existence. However I found that the after sales service and responses were excellent. Fast delivery too.
A scooter that’s comfortable for daily work use, easy to assemble, and most importantly has excellent customer service that’s always responsive whenever there are questions. Love it.
I was blown away ordered the scooter and delivery came the very next day on a Saturday 💪🏽💪🏽
Scooter feels very stable and solid. Was bit confused on getting her started, sent a message on a Sunday and a reply came through within 10 minutes and bang 💥 I was on the road . Well done guys
