Answer

What should I check before riding an e-scooter in Mallorca?

Before setting off, check the brakes, lights, tyres and battery if the scooter is electric. A helmet is strongly advisable, and it should fit properly rather than sitting unused on the handlebars. A quick pre-ride check is especially important on Mallorca, where road surfaces can change from one stretch to the next.
