Purchased ready-to-go from a cycling store. Full price. No packaging, instructions or hex key. Initially, steering column was a bit loose. I thought it odd as the cycling store is of the serious precision sort. Store owner keen to mention he meets with Micro Scooter rep once a week.

Days later the steering column easily lifted off the scooter. Placed the steering column back in its holding slot, adjusted the two steering column nuts to tighten the collar with hex key from previous adult Micro Scooter. Steering became either too responsive or...Read more

I am an adult and use my scooter to commute to work in Wellington. The scooter is great and its use has saved bus fares, improved my fitness and most of all is great fun. Initially I had difficulty using it on any uphill gradient (my knees and legs protested) but my strength has improved with use of the scooter and I can now use it on moderate slopes such as the slope up to the Mt Victoria tunnel and the gentle slope through the tunnel is easy. I get places in about half the time of walking. I tend to ride my brake on the downhills a bit mo...Read more

I'm 23 and so from the start of the scooter generation, and have really missed scootering as an adult. So I decided to get this scooter to use around town and for some general scooting fun. I love that you can clearly tell it is an adults scooter by its design as I can feel a bit self-conscious being an adult on a scooter. The ride is so smooth and fast; I actually sometimes can get the speed wobbles going down hill. The brake could be a bit stronger, and on older footpaths it can be a bit bumpy- probably a micro flex would be better for these ...Read more

I bought the scooter ~1 month ago, use it to cover the 700 odd metres to the nearest train station from home then the 2.5km from the train station closed to my work to my desk.

Shortened my commute from 70 min to 40 min.

Folds quickly and neatly for the train and next to my desk.

Comfortably handles a 92kg man plus laptop and gymbag.

Great fun to zoom around pedestrians on.

I've bought this scooter to get to work and back and it is just a brilliant ride. I've had this scooter since last year around August and it is still an eye catcher when scooting to work or at shops. The wheels glide very smoothly, and the low ride height gives the scooter great traction when u are speeding down the road. The only downside that I find to the scooter is the brakes. For the price tag, the brakes should be improved to something that is slightly more sophisticated. The brakes tend to not only wear out the metal padding, but also th...Read more

We have owned 6 micro scooters now for our 3 girls. We found them while living in London where my daughters school had a line up of micro scooters in the bike shed. They are great for the kids balance and confidence and make longish walks (to school, shops, and bike paths) a breeze. We have had the mini micro (X 3), maxi micro, and now have the speed+ and the White, which mum and dad can ride as well. Having grown up with skateboards I love the build quality of these scooters.

The durability and quality of the components (the wheels and bea...Read more

Bought this at the same time I bought my 2 yr old daughter a mini micro. I have to say-it's just so much fun! The build quality is excellent too. Whilst I mainly ride the scooter alongside my daughter when she's on her's, I have on a few occasions taken the scooter out on my own. Whilst I genuinely enjoy the scooting, I am conscious that people look on and think who's that fully grown adult on a child's toy!! I shouldn't be so vain! The other side of this on-looking though, is people (other adults), genuinely look on in envy!! My wife and mothe...Read more
