Adult Scooters – Functional, Entertaining, and Crafted for Teens & Adults
Explore our assortment of adult scooters suitable for various needs. We aim to offer a range of top-notch scooters from well-known brands, presenting the finest choices across different price points.
These adult scooters – often referred to as commuter scooters – cater to adults seeking a practical, quick, and entertaining mode of transportation.
Adults can rely on these scooters due to their strength, accommodating a weight of up to 100 kg (or 220 lbs), with certain models designed for even heavier users. Whether you're commuting or enjoying a ride in the park with your kids, if you're an adult in search of a scooter, you're in the ideal spot.
How Do We Define an Adult Scooter?
Adult scooters are constructed specifically as safe and functional transport solutions for adults. These scooters are larger than pro scooters and, while maintaining low weight, they possess the sturdiness to support an adult’s weight.
A few typical traits of adult scooters include:
- Handlebars that adjust, suiting both teens and adults
- A folding design for effortless transportation and storage
- Wheels with a diameter of 200 mm or more, ensuring a smooth ride
- A solid yet lightweight structure
What Benefits Do Foldable Scooters Offer?
Foldable scooters make everyday life easier. The ability to fold these scooters means they require less space when not in use. They are convenient to take on public transit or to fit into small areas, like your car's trunk.
Modern scooter folding mechanisms are dependable and user-friendly, often utilizing a quick-release locking-pin. No tools are needed to engage the folding feature.
Comparing Foldable and Non-Foldable Scooters
Your decision between a foldable or non-foldable scooter hinges on your preferences:
- Foldable scooters are built for easy transport and convenience when on the go.
- Non-foldable scooters focus on stability, durability, and longer rides.
Our range includes both foldable and non-foldable scooter varieties for adults. Despite all models being secure and reliable, foldable options can have a susceptible point at the folding joint – a feature non-foldable types don’t possess.
If planning extensive rides or navigating rougher paths, a non-foldable scooter may be more suitable. Nevertheless, the folding mechanism offers a fantastic feature for hassle-free transport and storage simplicity.
Which Scooter Size Should You Choose?
To find the best handlebar height, measure from the ground to where you feel most comfortable holding the handlebars. Ideally, the height should fall between your hips and navel. Add an extra 5 cm to account for the deck's height from the ground.
Check the total height listed for the scooter model you are interested in. This measurement represents the distance from the ground to the top of the handlebars. For adjustable handlebars, the range shows the lowest and highest handlebar positions available.
Do Adult Scooters Feature Hand Brakes?
Not all adult scooters come with hand brakes; however, each is fitted with a rear fender brake. You have three ways to slow a scooter: engaging the fender brake, using a hand brake (if available), or putting a foot on the pavement. Although intuitive, using a foot causes shoe wear; hence, opting for strong fender or hand brakes (or both) is advisable for commuters.
Hand brakes allow for quicker and more precise stopping. Commuter scooters benefit from hand brakes as they boost traffic safety and provide smooth, responsive speed control. While not always essential, hand brakes are highly recommended for those using scooters for commuting purposes.
