"awesome scooter"2009-08-17
By Moon (Minnesota)
My 6 year old son loves the scooter. It's durable, fun, a smooth ride, a good price, looks cool. What else can you ask?
"Heavier, more solid scooter for bigger people"2009-06-01
By M. Aiken Koppize
I bought this model of Razor to keep up with my kids. They have the standard original "A" models, which are low to the ground and relatively light in overall weight. The cruiser is heavier (maybe by @30%) and higher off the ground than the original. The larger wheels give it a somewhat smoother ride (although this could be attributed to it's spanking-new wheels). The deck is covered entirely with an anti-skid layer -- which is nice. Unlike other reviewers, I have no problem with it's "low" handlebars (and I'm 5' 11"). Plus, the deck board is "warped" by design, I assume, so that when you step on it, it flexes to a nearly-flat surface. Otherwise the deck would sag if it started in a perfectly horizontal position. Oh, and my kids can handle this too, even my 48-pound seven year old. The only drawbacks I can see with the wooden deck are the eventual dings and chips along the edge from curbs and such and the possiblility of moisture weakening the plywood over time. Probably need to keep this one out of the rain.
"Bad Wheels?"2009-05-26
By brooklyn cruiser (Brooklyn, NY United States)
It's a nice scooter; it rides well and is very fast. Not quite a xootr, but great for the price. However, the wheels that come with this thing is already starting to crack and fall apart. The front and back wheel already have big chunks of the wheel that fell off. The wheel makes a funny sound now when I ride. There are other cracks and it looks like other half-inch pieces of polyurethane is about to fall off. If this happens to the wheels in one week, it might be cheaper to just go with the xootr as I will be paying a lot of money to replace the wheel. I am around 150 lbs so am well below the 175 lbs limit on this. Otherwise, it's a good scooter; I just wish they had harder or more durable wheels (I ride in NYC).
"Great scooter, just too short for adults over 5'9""2009-05-05
By J. Ha
I got this scooter to save me a few mins walking to the bus station.
I read one reviewer on here saying that the handlebars are too low for anyone over 5'6". I'm 5'11" but decided to give it a try anyway.
I have to agree that the handlebars are too low for most adults. I would say 5'9" is the limit. The Razor Pro scooter has handle bars that are 3" higher, and I think that would be good for people up to 6' tall.
As for the wood deck, that same reviewer said it came warped. The deck is bowed, but that is a part of the design. The deck will flex when you stand on it, so it was designed to bow upwards to compensate for the flex. The flex on the deck does make the ride smoother by helping to absorb some of the bumps. But I feel this flex also makes the ride feel less stable. Personally, I would prefer a solid metal deck.
Overall, the scooter is well made and I would highly recommend it to anyone under 5'9"
"Great scooter for kids, too!"2009-03-27
By Jennifer Walker (Colorado Springs, CO)
I bought this scooter for my son's 5th birthday. It looked large in the box, and my husband immediately took it out and rode it around the house - WOW! It is smooth and fast and fun. I was worried that it might be too big for my 34 lb 5 year old, as it was his first 2 wheeled scooter, but he was up and going immediately! This is great at the park - he can coast along the sidewalk forever without even kicking. The large platform is easy for him to balance on and the large wheels easily go over large sidewalk cracks and he even rode on some of the packed down winter grass! The handle bar easily adjusts up and down so my son and husband could take turns. I believe this to be the BEST scooter out there for riding!
