Cool Scooter

TL;DR: Great, sturdy, fast scooter for adults, but a bit heavy.I bought this scooter to replace my Razor Pro Model. I took a bad spill from that scooter (which had started to fall apart after two years of only intermittent use) after trying to cross a line on the pavement that I thought was paint, but was rubber, which acted as an unexpected brake for my front wheel. Ouch. I was looking for a scooter that was a little more muscular, with bigger wheels, but which was not crazy expensive. I did a ton of research before making a purchase and considered just about every scooter line out there: Xootr, CityGlide, Micro, KickPed, even handmade Amish bike scooters. Oxelo really appealed to me, but they're not available in my country. I watched a very positive unboxing video regarding this scooter that mentioned it was modeled after an Oxelo Town 7, so I decided to go for it.I needed the scooter to get from one part of a university campus to another, and the route is basically downhill from parking lot to class and uphill from class to parking lot. This means that I have to carry (or wheel) the scooter back to my car pretty much every time I use it. Hence, I was hoping that the scooter would be lightweight. It's not completely un-portable, especially for someone bigger and stronger than I am, but a mile is a very long way to walk with it over your shoulder (it comes with a strap that will certainly hold it without breaking, but which *feels* flimsy and digs into your shoulder like crazy). It fits into the corner of a classroom or the trunk of a car pretty easily, but it doesn't fold down small enough to be anything but cumbersome when carrying it.That said, you trade portability for sturdiness. I've never felt unsafe on this scooter, even though I was really gun-shy after the fall I took. Its shocks take bumps amazingly well for hard tires, it's no problem going over small cracks and manhole covers, and it's got a wide and long deck. I'm about 5'3" and 135 pounds, and it feels roomy to me, as if I could be taller or heavier and it would be fine. It feels a lot more like a bike than a child's toy (like my Razor did) - or, really, it feels like a grownup's scooter, not a kid's.Getting from the parking lot to class is fun and fast. I think read a review that said this scooter's wheels didn't spin as easily as other scooters'. I've never noticed this; it goes plenty fast enough for me when I'm on the way downhill! You do have to be careful locking the folding mechanism in or out, but if you take a half-second to test it before riding it, you'll be fine. It folds and unfolds easily enough.All in all, I recommend this scooter for adults. It's a good balance of portable and sturdy, it's fun to ride, and it's very good quality for its price range.

This scooter is built like a tank idk why there are any negative reviews on here.. ? I mean seriously its so durable.. 200 mm wheels abec 5 bearings for ehhhh ok speed.. Switched them out with Bones swiss bearings makes a world of difference.. Try front and back wheels spinning for 2:47 seconds one spin!!! Stock abec 5's only spun 22 seconds max.. Big differenceAnyways back to review.. The deck is solid.. Thr handle bars are near perfect.. The shocks om both wheels really do justice.. Ive already hopped of ledges.. Curbs.. Cleared man holes.. Gone of ramps and the reviews say its not meant for this well.. Heres the trick ok that may be so but like the directions say tighten everything down before riding.. I did just that.. My frame is all Tighened up on the scooter.. Including adjusted shocks on the bottom.. This thing is now built for jumping Im 6'2 and 182 pounds.. But not once has the scooter ever failed on me even after hopping off a 4 foot ledge.. I just tonight bought new district Grip tape for a whopping $10.00 lol at action ride shop.. And like I saidReplaced the bearings with $45 bones swiss not a big deal.. Now when I ride down hill it acts gets scary lol Ive hit 14 mph to say an estimate.., bottom line dont buy the razor A5 thats still a good scooter but if u want one that will last you sometime get this Exooter and forget the Xootr. . The micro.. The crisp. . Def the fuzion lol.. This exooter is the bad boy of choice.. Excellent for the value.. Couldnt be happier.. Jus remember to replace the grip tape and the bearings. . Everything else you will love. .Ps: for the ones who cant read directions amd didnt tighten everything properly thats your own fault not the manufacturer.. Good. Job Exooter for making a durable high quality product.. #100 #Salute

I like it, I like it a lot. I feel like the suspension softens/dampens the ride - on sidewalks there are seams every 5 or 6 feet and the suspension helps not jar my back, I appreciate that. Overall it seems sturdy. My only complaint is I can't seem to fold it down, so what I do is lower the handlebars and it fits in the back of my car that way. I'm not saying it won't fold, it's just that it was hard to get it into riding position (extend it, for lack of a better word) that I decided not to mess with folding it again. I may try folding it again - It may have been operator error. other that that I am impressed with the build quality.
