Razor A5 Air Kick Scooter for Kids Ages 8+ - Extra-Long Deck, 8" Pneumatic Rubber Wheels, Foldable, Anti-Rattle Handlebars, for Riders up to 220 lbs

I do like this scooter a lot! I bought 3 scooters, this was the first one. It has a nice low deck which makes it easy to kick from since you don't have to bend your other leg that much. Just beware that the deck is really low when you go over edges etc. The pneumatic tires make this a really quiet scooter, people do not hear you coming ! However, those tires do not stay hard for very long, perhaps a week or two, before you would want to inflate again. The problem is that the valves are difficult to attach a pump to, since they are small and really close to the rims. The other problem is that the folding mechanism is too slow. If you don't need to fold it for your use that is not a problem, but if you go on a bus it is most practical to fold it. Otherwise it is a really good scooter, and comfortable too. Sturdily built. The rear push-down foot brake does work somewhat even in wet conditions since the tires are pneumatic and not Polyurethane.Update after almost 3 years of every day use: After almost 3 years of using this scooter 5 days a week I couldn’t be happier ad just now decided to buy another one so in case something happens to the tires on the old one I still have one to use since I need it every day. I have found the tires last about 2 years with everyday use before they wear out, they get a bulge in the tread and then you know it is time to change them out. You can buy the complete tire directly from Razor for under $25 each, which is reasonable. This is now my favorite scooter, very sturdy and lightweight (11lbs) so it is easy to bring on a bus if you need (like I do). You can just grab it and run up escalators or stairs and easily bring to your workplace. It doesnt need a lot of room. One great thing is the low deck which makes it so much easier on your knees. (Just be aware of large bumps). During dark mornings you can attach bike lights to the handlebar so you can be safe. The wide tires makes this a whole lot safer than the those with thin urethane tires.For those who are trying to stay fit: using this will greatly increase your muscle mass while shrinking your thighs and legs! Forgot to mention I am 5 f 5 and 140 lbs. it fits perfectly, just the right size for me.

I just took this scooter out for the first ride and it was absolutely smooth and sturdy. I’m 5”6 and the handlebar sits perfectly where my hips are. When it arrived at my house the tires were deflated so make sure you have an air pump handy. I was able to fill them easily. I was nervous about getting a scooter as an adult, as I had a pretty nasty wipeout on one when I was about 15 but these tires are designed for stability. However, beware of large bumps, I would walk those (bc the deck is low) otherwise small bumps are fine. I highly recommend. Will be using it daily to commute to work.

My son loves his new scooter! It is great quality and such a smooth ride and quiet!!!

Easy to carry on public transportation. Rides better on bumpy streets. The wheels should be a little larger. The scooter is a little low to the ground. I use the scooter for rides to work and cardio exercises.

I purchased this to ride myself I am an adult and it is great. The height of the handle is adjustable so for me, it is great. I can ride through the gravel on the road without the fear of being knocked off. It does fine in low grass but if you are riding in bumpy it will stall because it still sits low to the ground. The tires were easy to fill and held air fine. I ride next to my grandson when he is riding his electric car, it goes 5 mph and I can't walk that fast and I don't run, so this was a great alternative to keep up with him. I do check the adjustment knob before I ride to make sure it is tight, as I ride in some bumpy areas, I have only had to tighten it once, but I still check. I recommend this scooter it is well-made and sturdy.

The A5 is so, so, sooooooo much safer than the hard wheel, polyurethane wheel, scooters.The neumatic wheels absorb bumps that would otherwise send you flying.The air tires give you a bit of breathing room and safety over rough terrain, city streets, and can even roll over grass and dirt.Now, having said that... and echoing other well written reviews, the low clearance is dangerous on city streets and uneven terrain.You must go slow and pay great attention to any irregularities in the road.Fortunately, the air tires will easily ride over many of the bumps that polyurethane wheel will send you flying. But still, the low clearance of the A5, while wonderful for kicking, will often catch an uneven sidewalk and even at dead slow speeds, the scooter will stop and move your body forward.At faster speeds you could tumble.Even so, the A5 has been the best purchase in a very long time. Very useful.We traveled to Japan and using a jerry rigged strap, slung it over the shoulders on to our back, then carried it on the trains, and used it to easily get around the city. Even over The Rainbow Bridge.We purchased fancy 30$ high grade bearings for the wheels which reduced the rolling resistance considerably.People 100% need to buy the bering, it increases the glide a lot.The A5 is also a great workout vehicle. Working the arms, legs, glutes and core.You can really work up a burn if you want too, otherwise, it's a great way to get around town.

I got into the scooter trend for a few months and absolutely loved this Razor Scooter. It’s fast, well-built, and served me well for the most part. However, it did struggle a bit on even small hills, which was a bit of a letdown. That said, it’s still an incredibly fun and enjoyable ride overall!
