Customer Review: awesome scooter!!
I bought this for my daughter who was turning 11. It is a smooth ride and easy to handle for her. I wish each member of my family had one as we all have enjoyed riding it. We vary in height, are all between 100-200 pounds but it handles just as well no matter who is on it.
Customer Review: Fatal design flaw
- It doesn’t turn properly. It just topples over at the slightest angle.
- It goes into wobbles at very low speeds.
- The wheels don’t return to a neutral position on their own.
- The springs squeak all the time.
- The rubber grip is too small and too soft. It’s also the wrong shape.
- It’s too heavy for use as a casual commuting vehicle.
