Ok, had it about a month now. Got about 20 miles on it. Got it for an alternate to jogging and arthritic knees. Warning: first scooter for me since childhood. Cons: no suspension; with the polyurethane wheels, I feel every little bump and sidewalk crack. I thought the headset was loose but it turns out the folding lock mechanism (pic 2) has a little bit of front/back play, only noticeable when standing still. The downtube stop (pic3), just behind the front wheel was installed backwards with the countersunk hole in the back of the rubber spacer. Believe this was intentional to prevent complaints about the lock not releasing because properly installed, the stop should have a slight backward pressure on the downtube. To release the lock, push the handlebars forward and voila! Pros: plenty of room for my size 10 feet; glides very well; well made and holding up well so far; rear brake works fine when you need it; I dont fold it so have encountered no probs with the folding mechanism; also no probs with surface changes, bumps, etc., with large wheels. While it looks like the cons outweigh the pros, they are all minor and except for the suspension, all easily fixed. For the price, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Bought to ride around with my son, works great

I love that I made this purchase for this scooter. Its been really nice having this for my commute to work, and it gets me awake in the morning before the start of the shift. The mechanisms on the scooter are easy to understand and use. Control on it is really good, just dont go fast around tighter turns. Overall, a fantastic purchase and Im very satisfied with this scooter!

The scooter was well-built and was very smooth to ride. I love it and recommend this scooter to anybody.

Easy ride; great flow. I love four blocks from the beach and it gets me there quickly!

Great scooter that holds up well, lightweight but durable. Breaking it down to carry it on your shoulder is easy and well balanced. The only thing that broke quickly was the flimsy kick stand but it’s not that important.

I was looking for a cheap, entry-level scooter to try out before I switched to a fancy one. I am 54 with a size 7.5 shoe, around 145 lbs, current vanity-size adjusted dress size 4. This one was cheaper than the Razor A5 and seemed to have a more loyal fanbase with similar features and quality. I was going to just buy it in silver, but ended up waiting. Im glad I did, because within a week or two, the black and red became available. I wanted the black and red so I could pair it with a black and red bike helmet. So, if they dont have the colors you want, for better or worse, you may be able to wait and see if they become available. Or you could ask. The ride itself is very bumpy. I do not recommend this product if you have bad knees. I do not have bad knees. After about four hours of riding around, my legs were a bit sore. But I stayed hydrated enough to not cramp. Another reviewer mentioned that its like doing a one-legged squat for quite some time. I was able to adjust my foot positioning over time to where I could put one put behind the other. There isnt enough room for my feet side-by-side, but at an angle, one can be behind the other. But while riding it, would naturally not put my foot behind the other unless riding downhill. So, yes, my leg did get a little sore from the one-legged. But it was totally worth it. And I was able to adjust easily enough between riding with my left side or right side facing forward, although I hear folks naturally have a dominant preference. I say adjust at stop lights or every quarter mile or so to prevent getting a cramp or something. I average about a mile in a little under ten minutes. If Im in a hurry, I can do a 7 or 8 minute mile. If Im in a hurry, it can be a workout where I get legit exercise flushed. I think its worth it if you live in BK like I do. Ive only tried it around Roosevelt Island to teach myself how to use it, so dont have experience using it in the city. I use it to get from one part of BK to another, which can take a long time. Its typically faster than taking the bus if there isnt a direct route, but the bus in BK I find is a lot less enjoyable than the city. So I also recommend this if you want to avoid taking the bus. I also read that the bicycle was revolutionary for female mobility because it enabled women to travel unchaperoned. Id agree with this. I wanted the ability to somewhat safely zip home on late weekends and feel like this has served that purpose well. Carrying it around the city is not bad at all. Its very light and portable. The strap is ok, but if you dont hold it just right, some hardware will jam into you and pinch you no matter what you do. It doesnt take up too much room on the subway, although I wouldnt bring it with me during rush hour. I have never used the kickstand. Folding it up has so far seemed to be a very delicate process. Unhooking everything is easy enough, but its never clear if you did a good enough job when you close the joints, the red button for folding takes just the right touch (havent gotten it down to a swift motion, and kind of dont think Ill be able to). For the handles, they are held together by a piece of elastic. It doesnt seem sturdy at all. The design flaw is that they pop out of the holders when folded up for carrying around. So youll be sitting or walking and find one flopping around and have to put it back in. Its not held in there well at all. Thankfully, they do not pop out when you have it set up for riding. The handlebars are good enough for my height and arm length. I am of average proportion. The scooter is very light in terms of weight and combined with handlebars that are just a tiny bit too short, I sometimes raise it off the ground when kicking. It doesnt result in any actual performance issue other than being a little startling to slam yourself back onto the ground. This is my first scooter ever, and Id never ridden a scooter before this. So, Im reviewing for it solving my problem, but Im pretty useless at comparing it to other scooters.

Really pleased with our scooter, good quality build. Packaging was somewhat damaged but think that was more the fault of the carrier.

I bought this because we travel with my sons scooter since its impossible to rent bikes for a 5 yearold, yes he rides a Woom, and I wanted to scoot with him. Its super fun, fast and easily transportable!
