Electric scooter accessories are add-on gear and equipment that protect you, secure your scooter, and improve every ride. Most electric scooters ship with zero accessories. You need to buy safety gear and practical add-ons separately. We researched what Canadian scooter riders search for most and ranked the seven essential accessories by priority.
What Our Customers Tell Us About Scooter Accessories
Based on customer feedback, the single most impactful accessory upgrade is not a phone mount or a bag. It is a better lock. Theft is the number one risk for electric scooter owners in Canadian cities. Customers who invest in a U-lock rated above $50 report significantly fewer theft attempts than those using cable locks. The second most popular request: waterproof bags for commuting in rain. Vancouver and Toronto riders tell us they need panniers or handlebar bags that survive daily rain exposure without soaking their laptop.
A helmet is the single most important scooter accessory. It is legally required in most Canadian provinces for electric scooter riders. Even in provinces without a helmet mandate, riding without one is reckless.
What to look for:
Budget: $50 to $120 CAD. Spend at least $70 for a MIPS-equipped helmet.
We carry the GEM Bike Helmet with MIPS System ($69.99) which covers all the essentials. For a full comparison, read our Best Electric Bike Helmets in Canada guide.
Electric scooter theft is common because scooters are portable, valuable, and often left unattended. A $50 lock protects a $500 to $1,200 investment.
What to look for:
Budget: $40 to $80 CAD. A Kryptonite or ABUS U-lock in this range stops 95% of theft attempts.
Most electric scooters include a front headlight. Most do not include a rear light bright enough for road visibility. A separate rear light makes you visible to drivers from 200+ metres away.
What to look for:
Budget: $15 to $40 CAD for a front/rear light set.
A phone mount turns your scooter into a navigation device. Commuters use maps and ride-tracking apps on every trip. Without a mount, you stop and pull out your phone at every turn.
What to look for:
Budget: $15 to $35 CAD. Ram mounts and Quad Lock are the top-rated brands for vibration resistance.
Riding gloves protect your hands in two ways. They cushion vibration on long rides and protect your palms if you fall. Hands are the first body part to hit the ground in a scooter fall.
What to look for:
Budget: $20 to $50 CAD.
A handlebar mirror lets you check traffic behind you without turning your head. Turning your head on a scooter shifts your weight and can cause a wobble at speed. Mirrors are standard on cars and motorcycles for a reason.
What to look for:
Budget: $10 to $25 CAD.
Most scooters have no storage. A handlebar bag or stem pouch holds your wallet, keys, phone, and repair kit. A 2 to 5 litre bag is enough for daily essentials.
Budget: $15 to $40 CAD.

Some popular accessories are a waste of money for scooter riders:
Street Rides Research compiled this accessories guide from keyword search data, product research, and rider feedback. Search volumes are from Google Ads keyword datasets for Canada (June 2026). Product recommendations are based on category research, not paid partnerships.
We focused on accessories that apply to all electric scooter brands and models. Brand-specific accessories (replacement parts, proprietary chargers) are covered in individual product pages. This report represents approximately 3 hours of research.
At minimum, you need a helmet, a U-lock, and a rear light. These three items cost $105 to $240 total and cover safety and theft prevention. A phone mount and gloves are strong additions for daily riders.
Yes, in most provinces. Ontario, British Columbia, and Alberta require helmets for e-scooter riders. Even where not required by law, a helmet reduces head injury risk by 69%. Buy a MIPS-equipped helmet for the best protection.
A hardened steel U-lock or folding lock rated Sold Secure Silver or Gold. Cable locks are too easy to cut. Budget $40 to $80 for a Kryptonite or ABUS U-lock. It protects a $500 to $1,200 scooter investment.
Budget $150 to $250 for a complete accessories kit. The three essentials (helmet, lock, lights) cost $105 to $240. Add a phone mount ($15 to $35) and gloves ($20 to $50) for the best riding experience.
Yes. Any CPSC or CE certified bicycle helmet works for electric scooter riding. MIPS technology is recommended because scooter falls often involve rotational impact. Motorcycle helmets are unnecessary for scooters under 45 kph.
