Levy’s directory lists 66 shops in and around Chicago that sell or service electric scooters — bike shops, powersports dealers and vehicle repair shops. They are independent businesses, not Levy stores. Below: the highest-rated of them, what riding here is actually like, and the local rules to check first.
Showing 24 of 66 listings, ranked by Google review score weighted by review count so a single five-star review does not outrank a shop with three hundred. 20 bike shops, 4 repair shops.
These are independent businesses in and around Chicago, not Levy stores. Levy does not operate a public repair shop and does not set their prices, hours or stock. Listings come from the Levy shop directory; ratings are Google review data where the listing has it. Call ahead to confirm they will work on your scooter before you carry it across town.
These 4 carry a repair or scooter classification in the directory rather than a general bicycle-retail one, which usually means service is the main line of business.
Chicago is flat, gridded and has one of the best continuous car-free routes in the country in the Lakefront Trail, all of which is very good for scooters. The limiting factor is the season. Cold reduces usable range on any lithium pack, salt and slush attack bearings and brake hardware, and the practical riding window runs from roughly April to November. That argues for a scooter with a battery you can bring inside, both for winter storage and because a pack charged at room temperature after a cold ride lasts longer than one charged in a freezing garage.
Electric scooter rules in the US are set by the state and then modified by the city, and they change more often than people expect. Check both before you ride, especially on sidewalk riding, helmet requirements, minimum age, and where you may legally park.
Most scooter repairs are a tire, a tube, a brake pad, a cable or a charger, and all five are within reach of a careful owner. Levy stocks genuine parts for Levy scooters, the Segway Ninebot Max series and Okai fleet scooters, with fitment stated per part rather than assembled from a compatibility chart.
Levy ships direct. The Levy Light starts at $529 and the Levy Plus at $629, both with a battery that comes out so you can carry it inside to charge — which in a city with stairs, small apartments or cold winters is the feature that decides whether a scooter gets used.

Levy's directory lists 66 shops in and around Chicago that sell or service small electric vehicles — mostly bike shops and powersports or vehicle repair shops. Bike shops handle tires, tubes, brakes and cables, which covers most scooter repairs; powersports shops are the better call for electrical faults, controllers and motors. Call before you carry the scooter across town, because not every shop takes them.
The same shops, in most cases. In-person scooter buying in Chicago happens mainly at bike shops and powersports dealers rather than at scooter-only stores. If you already know what you want, buying direct is usually cheaper and gives you the full range of configurations; if you have never ridden one, going in and standing on one is worth the price difference.
Rules are set at the state level and often modified by the city, and they change. Check the Chicago and Illinois pages before you ride, particularly on sidewalk riding, helmet requirements, minimum age and where you are allowed to park.
No. Levy does not operate retail stores or repair shops, in Chicago or anywhere else. The shops listed here are independent businesses. Levy ships scooters and genuine parts direct.
