Any chance of hacking this thing into a private scooter? It looks to have an entire computer screen and operating system called MobilityOS and has a USB port underneath the screen behind the speaker. The middle rear of the footrest is where the interchangable battery is stored , it has all wheel disk brakes, undercarriage lights, and at least one front camera. It is unkown where the SIM and GPS units are located, the best bet may be where the speaker and usb are stored, which appears to have 4 smaller security torx screwheads.
They can be preordered here https://www.micromobility.com/bolt-chariot/ and may possibly be found at police auctions, esspecially considering they have been deployed in locations they are/were illegal in.
First objectives should be to flash software to turn auctioned off scooters into functional private scooters, second objective is to gain the ability to change settings such as max speed.
Make sure to only do this legally as always and stuff
I would attach a bunch of pictures of it, but when I try it says
Error
Error parsing server response.

Re: Bolt Chariot
I've only seen one of those in Downtown LA and that was about 2 months ago. I haven't seen another one since. I remember wondering if all that add-on and do dads/screen basket carrying were just flashy gimmicks or if there was more power in hub and battery than the 36 volt variants. Tires looked about the same size so did the hub. It kind of looks like a swan or turkey... nothing a little black spray paint and some crazy eyes and white plastic fangs couldn't remedy though.
