Description of 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. For the next step up, try the Razor A2 Scooter.
 When you're done riding, the Razor A folds down to a nicely compact size. |

Sport shop rating: 4 Stars
The Razor A Kick Scooter is a very good value as far as scooters go. If you're looking for the lightest scooter out there, this is it. This guy is priced very well and has a variety of color options. Most importantly, the aluminum construction is light and durable. This thing can fold up to a very sleek flat size that will probably fit in a larger gym bag.
But because it is so sleek, the foot rest is rather thin. The handle bars are also somewhat light and narrow. So it's perfect for younger kids and kids who are lighter or have smaller hands and feet. But as your kids age, they will outgrow this.
The wheels have ABEC-5 bearings, which any skater will tell you are capable of going relatively high speeds. Not to mention, it's so light this thing could pick up speed quickly. It's worth the time to train your kids on safety before you give this to them. Because of some of these features, they should not be going downhill at high speeds because the brake is not designed for stopping under those conditions.
This guy is also missing a kickstand, but since it folds flat that's not a really big deal. The rear brake is also somewhat *bare bones* but once again probably perfect for the size.
If you use this scooter right, it's probably the perfect starter. For kids up to 10 years old, this will probably be enough, but if your kids are older you should step up to one of the bigger and better models.
I have been looking into a variety of the scooters on the market for the Christmas holiday, and so far I'm pretty impressed with the Fuzion Asphalt Ultimate Carving Machine Scooter and Fuzion Carbon 4 Wheeled Carving Scooter. Those guys have a much wider base and a more stable 4 wheel structure.
So this Razor A Kick is still a great value and a very nice unit. Just make sure it's the right fit for your kids based upon age and height.
Enjoy.
Customer Review: Good little scooter
Sport shop rating: 4 Stars
Bought this scooter for my younger nephew in green and he really loves it so far. It's too small for adults like myself, but for kids 4-12 it really does the trick. It rides a little rough on the street, but it's great on freshly paved surfaces and side walks. Do note that the wheels are on the smaller side, so they feel every single bump and road imperfection. Small loose rocks can stop the scooter if driven over at the wrong angle. Definitely make sure you purchase a helmet and pads along with this scooter if you have inexperienced little ones.
One issue I did not like about Amazon is the constant price changing they do. When I first added this scooter to my cart, it was priced at $25, then about a hour later, when I was nearing completion of my shopping, the price went up to $30. Be weary, and pay attention to the price listings.
