The Razor A Kick Scooter is a Cutting Edge Ride!
Saturday, November 14th, 2009Oh to be young again! The Razor A Kick Scooter looks like it would be a blast to ride! Unfortunately, I may be a tad bit over the recommended weight limit for the scooter — 143 pounds. But heck, a guy can dream. Can’t he?
As you’ll see from the other reviews on this site, I like to look to Amazon and similar sites for ratings from users of the product in cases where I don’t have personal experience. And with the Razor A Kick Scooter it was a no-brainer. As of this writing, there were 276 users who rated the Razor A Kick Scooter. Of those, 218 (79%) gave it a 5-star rating. Even better, 248 (nearly 90%) gave it a 4- or 5-star rating!
Best of all, the positive feedback was outstanding! When I read through positive comments, I hunt for hidden complaints. The only three I found in a quick review of the positive remarks for the Razor A Kick Scooter were a lose sticker, a mention of dirt building up in the wheels, and one of the best hidden complaints I’ve ever read — “The only thing that will ever need replacement are the wheels.”
Here is the Amazon Product Description for the Razor A Kick Scooter:
- The original kick scooter, the Razor A 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 progeny will likely attest.
- The Razor A 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 around 6 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 5 and older, the Razor A will support a rider up to 143 pounds. It’s also backed by a six-month warranty.
Razor Scooters actually come in multiple models and colors. The data above is for the “A” model. Other similar models with slight variations are the “AW”, “A2″, and “A3″. All of these scooters can be reviewed and purchased through the links on this page.
One final comment with this, or any, scooter is the need for safety. A full line of helmets, knee and elbow pads are also available on Amazon. Make sure that you think about the safety of your kids as well as the happiness of them.
