Can't wait till my son rides it

Personally - I'd prefer the one with Black - but for my son, who likes white. My boy hasn't ridden it yet... but I will assemble it soon. Another thing I loove about this style of scooter is how its thick tires have spokes.
I am about 5'11" 160 odd lbs and it can cruise pretty well with me kick pushing and cruising down a hill. I bought it to run my dogs, because they and I love Urban mushing.
So glad this scooter is an option! We have a 10 year old with some motor skill delays who refuses to practice riding a bike. I love that he can use this scooter to master the basics of two-hand braking, steering and balance -- all-the-while being on a trick-ready, solidly-built scooter that holds it's own in coolness factor. I know our 12-year old will also love it once she's able to get her hands on it!
My son Loves it! Not the easiest to assemble, but if you know what you are doing, and how to follow directions, it's not difficult. My son had a crash on it on the very first day he rode it. I had tested it prior to giving it to him! However, he crashed into the grass pretty hard, (wearing a helmet) and he is great and the scooter is absolutely fine too!
It came in 4 pieces, the frame, 2 wheels, and the handle bar. The breaking system is the same as a peddle bike. It took me 15 min with no instructions to assemble. My son is 7 and he and I have been on it all day. Well made, solid!
I bought one for myself. I'm 42, 5'9", 167lbs. I had one of these as a kid and absolutely loved it. I got this one because my family and I go on a lot of walks and the kids always want to ride their scooters or bikes and I end up running after them. So I got something slower than a bike but faster than my 42yr old legs.
First of all, this was pretty much exactly what I was looking for (and seem hard to find)... scooters with large tires, which roll better on rough roads and off-road. I purchased 2 of these (as seen in the photo). I liked this model versus others with different size wheels because I felt it would be easier for long term maintenance to have the wheels the same size, and I figured it would ride better. The assembled was pretty straight-forward, but as a kid I tinkered with and repaired my own bikes. I also have a pretty high mechanical aptitude. I can see the assembly being a challenge for many people. So, you may want to ask a friend or take it to a bike shop if you are not mechanically inclined. they came with MULTIPLE stickers that just say "SCOOTER" already placed on the frame. My suggestion to the manufacturer... Save yourself some assembly time and just include the stickers in the box, allowing your customers to choose whether or not to use them. The frame is solid (which is most important). The black rubber/plastic foot plate is flexible, but feels sturdy enough. Overall... My complaints are relatively minor. I have enjoyed riding the scooter and it gives us something to do together that is active and more exciting than just walking. I'm 40 and riding it makes me feel like a kid again (which is a healthy feeling for any adult). I would recommend this scooter.
