Unagi is known for their sleek and high-quality electric scooters designed for urban commuting and personal transportation. The Model One is portable and easy to use.
Electric scooters, often referred to as e-scooters, are small, two-wheeled vehicles that are powered by electric motors. They have become increasingly popular for urban transportation in recent years.
E-scooters are equipped with electric motors that provide propulsion. These motors are typically mounted in the scooter’s rear wheel. They are powered by rechargeable lithium-ion batteries. The capacity of these batteries determines the scooter’s range, which is the distance it can travel on a single charge.
Many electric scooters are designed to be foldable, making them portable and easy to carry. This feature is especially convenient for users who need to combine scooter travel with walking or public transportation.
Electric scooters have handlebars with hand grips, throttle controls, and brakes. Riders stand on a platform with one foot on each side of the front wheel. Electric scooters are commonly used for short trips within urban areas. They can be a convenient and eco-friendly mode of transportation for commuting, running errands, or exploring a city.
Most people are familiar with the sharing services in Denver. Companies such as Lime operate fleets of electric scooters that can be rented via smartphone apps. Users can find and unlock available scooters, ride them to their destination, and then leave them for the next rider.
But, have you ever considered owning one of these products? One brand to consider is Unagi. Unagi is known for their sleek and high-quality electric scooters designed for urban commuting and personal transportation. Unagi scooters are designed with a focus on both form and function, featuring a minimalist and aesthetically pleasing design while offering impressive performance and features.
As mentioned earlier, Unagi offers a foldable design and long battery life. The scooter does not have a removable battery but charging it to 100% takes less than two hours. The Unagi Model One Classic retails for less than $1,000 and comes in your choice of five different colors.
The Levy Plus E-Scooter has a range of 20 miles and can also reach speeds over 18 mph. The triple braking system makes it one of the safest on the market.
Unagi places a strong emphasis on design aesthetics, using high-quality materials and finishes to create a premium look and feel for their scooters. The Model One is a simple scooter to ride and lasts for hours with an easy-to-read dashboard, smooth braking, and impressive speeds. In our tests, the Unagi Model One reached 18 mph which is fast enough for most users. For more information or to purchase, visit unagiscooters.com.
Another scooter to consider is the Levy Plus which has a range of 20 miles and can also reach speeds over 18 mph. It is also portable as it folds and weighs a total of 30 pounds. The Levy Plus features cruise control which is a nice feature when cruising down the street while paying attention to traffic.
The triple braking system includes a front e-brake, rear disc brake system, and a rear fender brake for backup. The LED front and rear lights allow for nighttime riding while remaining visible and safe. On our test, we were impressed with the shock absorption. It performed nicely on the streets of Denver. It also has 10 inch tires which makes it suitable to handle rougher situations — like gravel paths and dirt roads.
All Levy scooters come with a six-month warranty and this particular model retails for $729. For more information or to purchase, visit www.levyelectric.com.

The Show Runs From December 14-17, 2023 At The Bellco Theatre
By Mark Smiley
PAW Patrol Live! “The Great Pirate Adventure,” a Nickelodeon and VStar Entertainment Group production comes to Denver on December 14 at the Bellco Theatre.” This action-packed, music-filled production is based on the top-rated animated preschool series PAW Patrol, produced by Spin Master Entertainment and airing on Nickelodeon.
Guests will see Ryder and his team of pups embark on a pirate-themed adventure to uncover hidden treasures. This live touring stage performance is fun for the entire family. “We recommend ages two to six to enjoy the show,” said Jenna Barricklo, PAW Patrol Live! “The Great Pirate Adventure.” “However it’s a really good family experience and a good opportunity to introduce kids to the theater for the first time. It’s fun for all ages no matter what.”
In PAW Patrol Live! “The Great Pirate Adventure,” Mayor Goodway is getting everything shipshape for a big Pirate Day celebration in Adventure Bay. When Cap’n Turbot falls into a dark and mysterious cavern, it’s PAW Patrol to the rescue! Chase, Marshall, Rubble, Skye, Rocky and Zuma save Cap’n Turbot and discover a secret pirate treasure map that leads them on an epic adventure. Things get ruff when Mayor Humdinger wants to find the treasure first for Foggy Bottom. The pups need all paws on deck for this pirate adventure, including help from the newest pup who’s all ears…Tracker! Using their heroic rescue skills, problem solving and teamwork, the pups set sail to save the day. No job is too big, no pirate pup is too small!
“It’s a really interactive experience,” said Barricklo. “We encourage the kids to be up and out of their seats. It’s not a traditional theater seating where you are sitting quietly. There is a lot of opportunity for them to interact with the characters and help them solve clues and puzzles. We want them dancing and interacting with the show.”
PAW Patrol Live! “The Great Pirate Adventure is the perfect way for families to create lifelong memories and provides kids the opportunity to experience in-person theater. Since its debut in the Fall of 2016, PAW Patrol Live! has been seen by over 4.3 million people, providing fans in over 40 countries with an unforgettable Broadway-style production. The performance is an interactive live stage show, encouraging audiences to learn pirate catchphrases, dance the pirate boogie and help the pups follow the treasure map and solve picture puzzles throughout their mission.
You do not need to be familiar with the show according to Barricklo. “There are familiar characters the kids will know but it’s a brand-new plot,” said Barricklo. “We introduce all the characters so the audience does not need to be familiar with the show to enjoy the stage version.”
Tickets for all seven performances start at $45 and can be purchased at pawpatrollive.com or AXS.com and by phone at 888-9-AXS-TIX. Ticket prices are inclusive of a $4 facility fee. Prices are subject to change. Additional fees and special offers may apply.
V.I.P: A limited number of V.I.P. (Very Important Pup) packages are available, starting at $115. The VIP package includes a premium seat and exclusive photo opportunity with PAW Patrol characters after the show. Each adult & child (age 1 & up) in a group must have a VIP ticket.
The December 14 and 15 showtimes are 6 p.m. and Saturday, December 16 will have three shows, 10 a.m., 2 p.m., and 6 p.m. Sunday’s shows are at 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. The Bellco Theatre is located at 1100 Stout St. in Denver.
