Beginner Kids Scooters

Excellent choices for smaller children are the standard kick scooters but if you’re looking for something motorized things can get complicated. Listed below are a few considerations and some suggested brands at the end of the article:
Things to consider when choosing a scooter in no specific order:
Gas versus Electric Power
• Cost: When it comes to price the categories are, in ascending order: non-motorized, electric and then gas being the most expensive.
• Speed: Gas offers more velocity and accelerates to speeds in upwards of 30 mph. You can expect speeds of 12-25 mph in electric but for beginners you could go either.
• Noise: This is an obvious choice if you prefer a quieter scooter go with an electric motor. Even smaller gas powered (50cc) are comparable to lawn equipment decibel levels.
• Environmental Concerns: Electrical motors do not produce smog emissions like their gas counterparts. If gas still interests you but you’re still concerned about environmental impact, C.A.R.B. motors will produce less exhaust emissions.
• Convenience: Electric motors range from an hour to roughly 2 ½ hrs of battery life and after that need to be charged. The gas scooter needs a certain mixture of oil per gallon but can be used consistently. So the value of convenience is the cost of refilling versus recharging the electric motor.

When considering a purchase the consensus is stay with brands that have a reputable history of manufacturing quality scooters. Below are some brands you have a history of producing solid scooters:
• X-Treme Scooters (excellent dollar for dollar value)
• Razor
• EZIP
• GoPed
