Pulse Kick 'N Go Nitrous Scooter Review

It is a fun new idea on an old favorite, but is it worth the extra price? My kids do love it. I bought two, one for my 6 year old daughter and one for my 5 year old son (different colors of course). They can use it as a regular scooter and push along with their foot, or use the kick bar, which can be a little awkward at first. I should tell you that it does not roll backwards because of the gears and is a little heavier than a regular scooter. My kids don't seem to have any problems with it and just pivot off the back wheel when they want to flip around. It is well made, very sturdy (I did try it). I found when I kicked the bar I didn't have great balance but that got better with practice. As for speed, I think it's the same whether you kick or push. I think regular scooters go a little faster because they are lighter. It has a kick stand so you can stand it up, but I found it to be a unreliable unless it is a very flat surface. Over all I think it was worth the extra cost. It is nice to have the choice of propulsion and I think my kids would have been disappointed with anything else. They were very specific as to which one they wanted for Christmas because it looks cool and is just a little bit different.

Designed for kids ages 5 and older, the Pulse Kick 'N Go Nitrous uses a unique chain driven kick lever propulsion system that allows your child to accelerate and maintain speed without ever touching foot-to-ground. A lower center of gravity offers maximum control, and narrowed handlebars improve stability. Its dual-density grips are designed to fit smaller hands, while the rear guard keeps fingers away from moving parts.
Beginning riders can hop on and execute tight turns while maintaining a balanced stance on the deck. The new frame design is lighter but just as strong, and the friction braking system maximizes stopping power. The scooter's powered via the single-action, dual sided, T-bar propulsion pedal at the back of the deck. After kicking it to power your ride, the T-bar comes back to its normal position within a few seconds for another propulsive kick. It's completed by BSB ABEC 7 precision speed bearings and 92A urethane street racing wheels with reinforced nylon hubs. It's quick and easy to assemble, and all necessary tools are included.

sturdy, well made, daughter loves it ~ purchased as open box for $53 & was perfect condition & better price than $70-80 new so feel this was a good deal. spark/flint cartridges do not last long but that was expected

Light up your ride even more than before with the Razor Spark DLX scooter. The original Spark scooter--an upgrade itself from the classic A kick scooter--introduced the idea of creating an awesome trail of sparks each time you step on the scooter. The Spark DLX, however, takes it to the next level by adding 50 percent more sparks to the mix. The improved sparking cartridges team up with the Spark DLX's new foot-controlled, detachable spark bar and 98mm LED light-up urethane wheels to give your scooter ride an explosive new feel. Just step on the sparking bar and watch the sparks fly. The Spark DLX is made of aircraft-grade aluminum, a sturdy material that holds up to use and abuse through the years. The T-tube and deck, meanwhile, fold into a compact footprint, so riders can fit the scooter inside a bag or carry it at their side when riding isn't appropriate (it weighs around 6 pounds). And thanks to the Spark DLX's full-length grip tape, the scooter offers better traction and control than before. Other features include ABEC-5 bearings, a patented rear fender brake, and a bonus spark cartridge. Recommended for ages 8 and older, the Razor Spark DLX supports riders up to 143 pounds.

Razor Special Edition Steel Scooter Review

Average Reviews:

The "Special Edition" handlebar is not height-adjustable. Unless your kid is, what, who knows exactly how tall, this Razor is one to avoid. Proper handlebar height is essential to a safe and comfortable ride. My son is too short for this, and my daughter is too tall. The handlebars are fixed. There is no indication on the box that there's no height adjustment. Its going back. A birthday disappointment.

Based on the original kick scooter, this Razor Special Edition Scooter is a handy little ride for kids and teens alike. Though it'll never replace the internal combustion engine, the scooter will get your child from point A to point B much quicker than on foot alone, and requires just a few scoots of one's shoes in the process. Plus, it's a blast to use, as your kids will likely attest.
The Razor Special Edition Scooter is built with high-quality painted steel construction, a sturdy material that holds up to use and abuse through the years. Its T-tube and deck, meanwhile, fold up into a compact footprint, so riders can fit the scooter inside a bag or carry it at their side when riding isn't appropriate. And thanks to the 98mm inline-style 5-spoke urethane wheels, ABEC 5 bearings, and rear fender brake, riders will always feel smooth and in control when kicking along the sidewalk. Recommended for ages 5 and older.

For riders ages 5 and older

Razor Pocket Mod Miniature Euro Electric Scooter Review

Razor Pocket Mod Miniature Euro Electric Scooter
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
When my 11-year old started begging for an electric scooter, we were very hesitant. A neighbor has one and it's the stand-up kind with a VERY loud motor that drives us nuts on the weekends. We gave in, and went shopping. While we were reviewing the standing scooter, we noticed the Razor Pocket Mod and it was the SAME PRICE! I, of course, thought it was adorable and my daughter was easily swayed.
It was easy to put together and charge, however pumping the tires was a wee bit difficult just because of the angle required. The tires are nice and fat/sturdy, too, so riding offroad or over small rocks wasn't an issue. The biggest thing we noticed though, was that it is AMAZINGLY QUIET! What a blessing compared to the neighbor's noisy scooter! It practically 'purrs' and you don't even hear it until you are right next to it.
Seeing her ride it is incredible! It is VERY easy for any child that can balance and ride a bike. The handle brakes/gas takes a bit of getting used to, but after a few days she was a pro! Her papa rides a motorcycle, so he was dying to check it out. Weighing in about 180lbs, he was able to ride it as well! My daughter got a big kick out of that.
The battery lasts quite a while! An hour may not sound like a lot of time, but if it's not continuous (kids stop/start chat/ride/play) it can last hours. It charges quickly and easily, and it's small and fits well in the side of the garage. Though she's 11, we were told by the salesman that younger kids who are responsible can definitely ride it.
It IS fast, though, which was a bit unnerving at first. It doesn't sound like 15 MPH is that fast (I think that's what it is), but when you see your child going down a hill that fast - it seems quite scary! It doesn't turn quite as sharply as a bike or standing scooter can, so they have to learn it's limitations. Definitely get a helmet and kneepads!
This is the BEST ITEM we have purchased for her in YEARS! Highly recommended!

Razor E300 Electric Scooter Review

Razor E300 Electric Scooter
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Like some reviews, my 8-year-old son's first E300 only ran about ten minutes per charge and 13mph max speed (yes, I have a radar gun). Troubleshooting sent us toward a dragging brake, but the brake adjustment was fine. The chain, however, was super tight (I'm an old motorcycle racer, so I know a lot about chain tension). I loosened the chain tension, but no improvement, and returned the entire unit. (I suspect either a bad battery or the overly tight chain tension damaged the motor armature.) When the next E300 showed up, I checked the chain immediately out of the box. Again, super tight. I loosened the chain (extra loose for the first run, maybe 3/4" play) and completed the rest of the setup. The unit performed flawlessly. Speed was consistently 17mph and still running strong after 35 minutes (we've only done two test runs so far). Slightly tightened chain tension to about 1/2" after first run. Also, as noted by another reader, we looked everywhere for the rear tire inflater extension, only to find it inside the right handlebar grip cap. Good luck figuring that out when it isn't in the directions. The E300 is sturdily built - a lot more than I would expect for the money. I weigh 210 lbs and the structure doesn't flinch when I climb aboard (although the motor is clearly not intended for any hills or probably heavy riders). My son is about 60 lbs and we live in Florida (no hills), so this thing will hopefully last a long time. If you live where there are hills or you weigh more than 150 lbs, I recommend you look for another scooter. Happy riding.Razor E300 Electric Scooter
Update: 10-01-2007 I took the E300 out for a test run myself after dropping my son off at school (I want to test the unit thoroughly inside the 30-day return policy). I cruised the entire neighborhood, local park and all around. It is a very blustery day (threatening rain and lots of wind), so I encountered lots of headwinds. Through the ride I was up and down small hills too. I did this entire drive without any stopping, and the E300 finally gave out at 25 minutes on the button (the motor was moderately hot to the touch). Because of my weight (210 lbs), I can tell the motor is small and not designed for any hills or adults, so I was very impressed by this performance, especially considering the occasional stiff headwinds that I could tell strained the motor (you have no choice but to stand straight up like a sail forcing against the motor). My 8-year-old son is about 65 lbs and has never seen the "low power" light yet during his two 35 minute runs. I still think we have winner!

Razor Spark Scooter Review

I enjoyed fast service and mint condition of product when it arrived. Product itself was not as described. Sparks were not as awesome as I thought they should be and the cartridges were used up faster than I expected. Also you can get a 2pk at Target for $10 and online the price is $20 plus shipping.
I like the scooter itself, the wheels seem more efficient with smoother ride than other scooters I have tried, but I don't think the "Sparks" aspect was really worth the $20 more I paid for it.

Adding a bit of spark to the original kick scooter, the Razor Spark has modified its A2 scooter with a foot controlled, detachable Spark Bar to light up your ride. The Spark Scooter's spark cartridge creates 20 percent more sparks than other brands on the market thanks to its 5 flint pads. A bonus spark cartridge is included.
The Razor Spark is built of aircraft-grade aluminum, a sturdy material that holds up to use and abuse through the years. Its T-tube and deck, meanwhile, fold up into a compact footprint, so riders can fit the scooter inside a bag or carry it at their side when riding isn't appropriate (it weighs 7 pounds). And thanks to the 98mm inline-style urethane wheels, ABEC 5 bearings, and patented rear fender brake, riders will always feel smooth and in control when kicking along the sidewalk.

Recommended for ages 8 and older, the Razor Spark will support a rider up to 143 pounds. It's also backed by a six-month warranty.
