How to choose a scooter for children or adults?

Children's scooters are a fun and active way for them to play and exercise. Choosing the right one is child's play!

According to age

- For children aged 2 to 5, look for a three-wheeled scooter with a stable base for balance.

- For children aged 5 to 8, consider a scooter with adjustable handlebars to accommodate growth.

- For children aged 8 and over, choose a scooter with larger wheels for greater speed and stability.

Whatever the child's age, take into account the scooter's weight limit to make sure it's suitable for the child's height.

According to use

Think about how the scooter will be used, whether for recreation, commuting to school or performing tricks and stunts. Finally, ask yourself where the scooter will most often be used: indoors on smooth surfaces, or outdoors on rougher terrain.

Important accessories for safety

Accessories such as helmets, knee pads and elbow pads can protect your child from injury when riding a scooter. If they are riding on public roads, consider reflective accessories, which will make your child more visible to drivers and other pedestrians, reducing the risk of accidents.

Using a scooter to get to work can be a fast and efficient mode of transport. They are often compact and easy to manoeuvre in traffic, making them a practical choice for urban commuting. What's more, scooters are environmentally friendly and a cost-effective option for commuting, as they generally require less maintenance than a car.

How do I lock my scooter?

To lock a scooter, choose a sturdy padlock well suited to the size of the structure where you’ll need to secure your scooter. Fasten it securely around the scooter's main frame and a fixed anchoring point. Make sure the padlock is securely locked to discourage theft and ensure your scooter stays where you left it.
