My Review of the Best Adult Scooters (And How to Choose Yours)

Owning a scooter offers you plenty of benefits and promises fun memories. However, with many companies claiming they offer the best adult scooters, choosing the one that will suit your needs fully can be a tough task. When I did my research, I couldn’t make up my mind for weeks. That’s why I want to share the 3 best options that I discovered.

3 Best Adult Scooters on the Market

  1. Razor A5 Lux Scooter.
    It’s a kick scooter, a popular version of a kids’ scooter. It’s really comfortable and its reputation precedes it. After a week of debating, I finally decided to get this one. One of the best things, which many people have noticed, is that it’s really easy to repair and modify – which made the purchase worry free. It’s also one of the best adult scooters for bumpy rides. The wheels are large and create a smooth feeling. I would highly recommend this one.
  2. Fuzion Cityglide Adult Kick Scooter.
    As the name suggests, it’s a good choice for city rides. This scooter will be a good companion on the crowded streets and is a practical way to get to work. It’s also probably the lightest option available, so you won’t have to struggle with carrying it. It doesn’t take up much space, which is ideal for traveling. You can now get it for only $60, which is a great offer compared to the many overpriced scooters I found while researching.
  3. SWAGTRON Swagger Adult Electric Scooter.
    This is one is on the more expensive side – you have to pay $300. However, if price isn’t a problem then definitely check it out. What you are paying for over the other scooters is it’s fully electric, and the battery life is quite good. It is fast and folds easily. Yet, it’s a city only version, as the tires are awkwardly small, meaning you will literally feel every bump on the road. It would be also practically impossible to find a spare battery. Overall, it’s among the best adult scooters, but only for short rides in the city – the most practical scooter for getting around quick.

Efficient Buying Guide for an Adult Scooter

If you’re thinking about getting one, the first thing you have to determine is where you are going to use it. You really shouldn’t use the same scooter for short and longer rides. If you’re only planning to ride to work and back, your wheels have to range anywhere from 175 mm. It’s a minimum, otherwise, you’d have to constantly push it. Also, it would be more practical to get a light model, the one you won’t have too much trouble with.

If you want to ride longer you really should look for bigger wheels (starting with 200mm). That will give you a time to rest and enjoy your ride more. The best adult scooters for longer distances have a suspension, especially if your routes are far from being perfect. Everything else, including the materials, is up to you, but most of the options now are pretty sturdy and durable.

Overall, having a scooter has made my life much easier – I can get around quickly and get to places without using public transportation or paying a lot to get there. And – I can park or fold the scooter up anywhere to take with me. And I always know that I will have a good ride, especially if I turn on some music.
