Frequently Asked Questions

Can I buy a Spin scooter?
No, Spin (owned by Ford) doesn't sell scooters to consumers. If you want to own a scooter instead of renting, Levy offers a better experience than fleet scooters with lightweight design and swappable batteries.
Is buying a scooter better than renting Spin?
For regular riders, owning is much more economical. Spin rides typically cost $1 to unlock plus $0.15-0.39 per minute. Daily commuting could cost $150+ per month in rentals. A Levy scooter pays for itself in 3-4 months.
What personal scooter is like Spin?
Spin uses heavy fleet-duty scooters built for durability, not portability. For personal use, Levy offers a better experience: lighter weight for carrying, swappable batteries for convenience, and design optimized for personal commuting rather than fleet operations.
