X-Treme Scooters Kids Electric Scooter Review

X-Treme Scooters Kids Electric Scooter

(More customer reviews)
We got this scooter for our 5 yo daughter for Christmas, now its September and we are throwing it out. I will say it was used a lot. Riders: ALWAYS wear a helmet!
The Good:
- charge. This thing runs a long time. Very impressed with that aspect of it. Nice charger with lights (although they were backwards from what was said in the manual.)
- Variable throttle.
- Light weight.
- Moves even my 200 lbs at a good speed.
The Bad:
- The wheels suck - hard wheels. DO NOT GET A SCOOTER WITH HARD WHEELS. It really sucks trying to get over any sort of rough terrain, even rough asphalt. Get inflated tires. Also, when we adjusted the brakes to give sufficient stopping power, you easily wear off part of the wheel and then its no longer round. You can hear the scooter go "thump - thump" a mile away and it jiggles the rider because of the worn out wheel. Got another for $16 from them, but a) its a BEAR to install and b) it wore out the first day. Note this was due to the brakes failing and then you're stuck with either you have too much braking or not enough due to the worn out brake parts. Not willing to spend the $ to repair/replace.
- The construction is not quality. All welds have broken. I was lucky to have a iron fence guy at our house and he re-tack welded.
- The control unit has now failed. Won't charge at all.
- Brakes stopped working very soon. Its a steel band that tightens on a drum. Found it to be super touchy. If adjusted too much, you wear out the tire as described, or you don't get much braking.
- only 90 day warranty. I'm done with this scooter, going in the trash (after we recycle the battery).
So, we got our $100 out of it, but we were hoping for a longer life. Now looking at other brands.

Micro Original Kickboard Scooter Review

Micro Original Kickboard Scooter
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I received my Micro Original Kickboard Scooter yesterday, as a replacement for a K2 Trifecta Kickboard I loved, bought in 1997 and lost in my move. What I love about this is its skateboard-style steering, brake (I've never quite learned how to slow down on a skateboard), one-handed operation, portability, solid construction, mod-ability, and uniqueness.
I bet that those who rate this product poorly for stability, steering, handgrip design are trying to use it in a way it isn't intended. It won't behave being treated like a T-bar 2-wheeler. Following the instructions and keeping more of a skateboard stance in mind--feet at 45* angle or even perpendicular to the board--will yield a much stabler navigation control. With the K2 version I used to steer just with my feet, barely touching the stick at all. Also, to get super-tight turning instead of "falling over," counter-steer: if you ride with right foot forward and want to turn right, push on your heels to steer the board right while leaning your weight FORWARD (towards the LEFT side of the board, in order to keep your weight over the board) just hold the stick enough to keep your balance. Don't try to push/pull the stick to steer. Conversely if you ride with right foot forward and want to turn left, press your toes down to steer the board left and hang your body back as far as you can so your weight remains over the board.
Now, what I miss about my old one - this new original is quite large. Seems significantly bigger in length, wheelsize, and joystick diameter. I liked the smaller, more portable size, but did not want the aluminum deck of the Micro Compact Kickboard. This one also seems much softer in the springs than I remember the other to be, and I want a stronger steer; springs are sold, so I'll just have to track them down. The K2 one came with two sets of different strength springs, which amusingly did make it through the move, though I may have finally tossed them. I can't tell whether there are strap or bag accessories for this device, nor can I see any place on it where I could clip a micro kickboard strap (probably meant for the T-bar 2-wheelers). I do dig the ergonomic grab to release the handle lock, though; the K2 had a machined metal dowel that was brutal to the thumb.
Finally, this is such a great product, where are the fans and the info? It's so hard to find goodies about modding, adjusting, accessorizing; videos top out at 5 on YouTube. US distributors - please organize a social community where we can all share knowledge and fun about the Micro Kickboards!

Razor A3 Scooter - Various Colors Review

This Razor A3 scooter is a great step up from the inexpensive, less robust scooters you'll find in many stores. Very strong: my 11-year-old weighs about 100 pounds and it has easily absorbed use and abuse from him and his friends for months.
The large wheels are a great feature, as is a neat adjustment which you can use to keep the handle secure to the base without rattling. The hand grips are very comfortable, and are also the part most likely to wear first, but they are easy to replace if you ever need to.

I ordered 2 of the exact same thing and both were supposed to be Black, one came as Pink. Both were selected from the Pre-Teen Boys 9-12 age group gift ideas but these were for 5+ year olds and are WAY too small for a 9 year old. These were for a Give a Wish charity and by the time we got them it was too late to donate. They needed much better quality assurance to catch both issues.

Razor Pro Model Scooter Review

Razor Pro Model Scooter
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought an A2 for my wife, and because she didn't want to ride by herself--and I'm bigger and heavier--I bought this Razor Pro thinking it was simply made sturdier and nothing more. I also happen to be an avid cyclist of many years so I can really tell the differences.
Turns out there are huge differences between this Pro model and the others--to the point where I could say the others are toys and this is actually sports equipment/transportation.
*The stability in steering is much better on this one.
*The wheels are thicker, which I'm sure contributes to its ability to hold a line better--though I have to say the A2 is not bad either.
*It's faster, and since the ride is a lot more stable it's actually much safer to ride this going fast than the others.
*I believe this is actually made of a higher quality of aluminium.
*Overall it's made of a heavier construction more appropriate for those who are going to do more on it than go back and forth on the sidewalk.
Bottom Line: For the price difference here on Amazon (the A2 being about $40 and the Pro being roughly $50) it's worth it to spend the extra $10 on the Pro.
This isn't just a toy like the others. You can actually enjoy the ease and convenience of riding this thing to the store and back, or through the middle of an urban environment adding to both your enjoyment and convenience without having to lock it up outside when you enter a building--or being prohibited from entering a store like you would with Roller Blades without changing to shoes first.
And as a 5'10" adult male, I can say this is a better fit--though the A2 isn't bad either in that respect.

Razor A2 Kick Scooter Review

Razor A2 Kick Scooter
Average Reviews:

Scooter is sturdy, well made and looks great! It glides smoothly and handles nicely. Low to the ground with nice handle bars and grips. I bought this for my grand daughters three years ago and
they had never ridden anything but little kid toys. Each easily learned to handle and ride with very few mishaps. I think it is pretty safe for a ride-on type toy. (we bought helmets and thankfully have never had any bad landings). Now three years later I am still watching them ride working up a good healthy
sweat and loving it!! So, I just purchased scooter number 4 for
one of the girls who has practically worn the wheels off (I hope
I can talk her into the replacement of her favorite toy). She is nine now, the age where girls need outdoor exercise and fun.
WELL WORTH THE MONEY!!A GOOD CHOICE FOR KIDS MOVING UP TO BIG KID TOYS.

The original kick scooter just got a whole lot better, making it even more fun for kids and teens alike. Though it'll never replace the internal combustion engine, the Razor A2 will get your child from point A to point B much quicker than on foot alone, and requires just a few scoots of one's shoes in the process. Plus, it's a blast to use, as your progeny will likely attest.
The Razor A2 is built of aircraft-grade aluminum, a sturdy material that holds up to use and abuse through the years. Razor combined the traditional aluminum construction, however, with a number of recent innovations, including a springless shock system that makes bumpy pavement feel smoother than ever and an all-new wheelie bar that guarantees an extra dollop of fun. Add in the foldable T-tube and deck, which tuck together to create a compact footprint (ideal for carrying when riding isn't appropriate), and you have a great kick scooter for virtually any situation. Other details include an enhanced finger guard, 98 mm inline-style wheels, and a patented rear fender brake for quick stops.
This version of the Razor A2, which weighs around 6 pounds and supports up to 143 pounds, and is recommended for ages 5 and older. It's also backed by a six-month warranty. For the next step up, try the Razor A3 Scooter.
Key Features:
For riders ages 5 and older
Sturdy aluminum construction
Weighs approximately six pounds
Rear fender brake
Enhanced finger guard
Patented folding mechanism
143-pound user weight capacity
Six-month warranty

The buyer and rider of the Razor A2 scooter are responsible for knowing and obeying all local, state, and federal regulations regarding the riding and use of scooters.
