Madd Gear Kruzer Folding Height Adjustable Commuter Scooter

Bought for my 9yr old daughter's birthday. We love the smooth ride %26 the color is so pretty! Her Dad was also able to ride with ease. Previously owned an electric scooter from a different brand that never held a charge %26 was inconvenient for our lifestyle.

It's a good scooter. I am 47 years old and new to kick scooters and in only my first week I am up to almost 9mph average speed. That is 3x faster than walking. And I am sedentary and out of shape. This scooter works well as a form of "last mile" transportation. It is easy to fold up and bring it on the bus or train. Even during rush hour you can fit the scooter under the seat or between your legs. It is a bit heavy at 15 lbs, if that is an issue the Razor Lux A5 is lighter and made with better parts and goes faster. But this one was on sale for $40 compared to $100 for the Lux A5. Buy a universal scooter carrying strap and it's easy to walk up stairs and carry the scooter. I am happy with the purchase and at the low price I would not feel so bad if I get mugged or someone steals the scooter. It's actually convenient to carry the scooter and bring it inside the supermarket or Walmart. Probably a better idea than to leave it locked to a bike rack. I am in Miami with high crime and high rate of bicycle and scooter theft. The only complaint is the 15 lb weight when other scooters are closer to 10:lbs. However the higher weight is because the scooter is made of steel and will be more durable than lighter scooters. Assembly was less than 10 minutes and it includes all tools such as hex key wrench. A good upgrade for fastest speed would be to change the Abec 7 bearings to Ceramic bearings such as BoneZ. But you can do the upgrade later because the stock configuration is good enough for most people's needs. Highly recommend this scooter although the price of electric scooters has finally dropped to $160 for a 500w electric scooter that goes 19mph so it might make more sense to go that route or to own both and use this Mad Gear Kruzer 200 for short trips or for when you go to a high crime neighborhood. To lock the scooter you may want to consider a handcuff scooter chain.
