Big Wheel Scooter 205 - Tret-Roller

I bought this scooter for myself, so I could go on scooter rides with my kids. I took out this scooter on a bike trail and it was so much fun! It is definitely a workout. If you have an Apple Watch, it will track this as an outdoor cycle, there isn’t one for a kick scooter. I averaged 4.5mph while on my 2 mile scooter ride. Riding a scooter is a great form of exercise while living out your childhood as an adult and having fun with your kids. This will probably be my new favorite thing to do by myself or with my kids.When folding the scooter to the riding position, you have to place your hand on top of the lever and push a bit to hear the click.- the handle bar goes really high. I’m 5’3” and I have it on the second highest setting (one more notch up and that will be the maximum height)-I love the foam handle grips. My kids have another brand of an adult size scooter and their handles aren’t covered in foam. This is a little touch that makes a big difference while riding.-I’m no where near 250 pounds, but I like that the weight limit is so high. It feels sturdier.-I’m a size 8 in womens, size 6 in mens in shoes, and I can comfortably place my feet almost side by side on the scooter and front and back on the scooter.-break is located in the back, you just use your foot.Don’t pass this scooter up if you’re looking for exercise, an alternative way of transportation, you want a bike but don’t have the space, or if you want to have some family fun. Great buy!

In the product description, it was indicated that it folds and unfolds in 1sec. In the beginning, this was not true to me as I had trouble handling it. I chose to write this review exactly 3 months since it was delivered to me so that my review would be based on personal experience. I practically take it everywhere I go, riding it instead of walking. Initially, I thought of attaching a handbrake, having riden a motorcycle for years, but it truly isn't necessary for my needs.It's lightweight and very handy especially with the strap provided. I truly appreciate the bonus cardio work-out it gives me, I just make sure I change legs to balance the leg work. I have experimented on foot position and the slanted position proves very useful when changing legs. I have not tried the trick of springing to change feet because I find the deck just the width of my shoe and one little mistake would surely lead to an injury.I feel that riding on not so smooth road makes the ride a little noisy, I guess primarily because it is lightweight.I have since attached a headlight bracket for night riding and a blinking red light for my backpack. I also attached a bicycle bell because I would always ride on the sidewalk. Maybe because I have gained enough technique that people would think it's electric because I would be able to maximize momentum and free-wheel more than my kicking.It's a good buy. People would approach me and ask if it is electric, as I take it on the bus or the train. One time, as I had lunch, a lady even asked to carry it and got so surprised about how light it is compared to her scooters.

This scooter looks nice. I've been using it as part of my daily transport. It has been durable for the past 3 months I've used it. The assembly was decent. I set up the front wheel and breaks. Then you will make the folding mechanic. It looks like it would work well for kids too.

I bought this to ride to the train station. So far it's been perfect. Folds easily and it's easy to carry with the strap. Although I wish the strap was little longer. The scooter is extremely well built. The adjustments are easy and the foot brake works great even when wet. As far as the three major complaints about it, noise, suspension and size I have no issue with any of these. First of all, it's a scooter not a stealth vehicle. Yes it's noisy on rough surfaces and rattles a bit, but it's certainly not going to fall apart. Secondly, if you have an issue with suspension this scooter doesn't have springs like some others. It does however go over most objects like small rocks, sticks and uneven surfaces and cracks without incident. As for the other complaints, size of the footboard and ground clearance, again I don't have any issue. I wear size 12 men's shoes and both feet fit comfortably with a good riding stance for coasting. You will not get both feet end to end on this or on or any scooter I've looked at. Ground clearance is not great, but I believe that was sacrificed for a better striding position. Keep in mind this is not a "trick scooter" or intended for skate parks and such as this is indicated in the description. It's primary use, at least for me, is commuting and to that end it works extremely well. It's lightweight, portable and good looking. For those of you that prefer an EV scooter, may it be suggested that a little exercise is a good thing.
