The other similar scooters, available, when I bought this were all more expensive re-works. This model isn't as good, as 200 mm scooters need to be. It is heavy. The steel kickstand is garbage, which soon starts hanging, during operation, unlike the lighter LUX and its aluminum kickstand. It bombs, but the bearings are way, WAY TOO FRAGILE, so that front wheel busts one, after a couple of months, since the weight and streets make this almost-good product, into something dangerous, to riders and passersby. I've gotten away, from attacking cars, BUT I was forced, to ditch, then forced, to hop off, whereupon the scooter jumped up, swung, and knocked the speeding, offending SUV's left-side mirror, clean off. POW! The little red gimmick fell off the tail, hahaha! Miserable townies tried to have me arrested, but this didn't go, fortunately, but mind crews and posses.
THEY WILL KILL A SCOOTER. Like THAT.
This scooter isn't good enough, so it takes some expertise, and it just is NOT as good, as the Razor LUX, which is under-marketed, for about the same price, for a way-lighter, aluminum scooter, which is quite fast, without the taxing kickstand issue, and one-too-many shocks. GET EITHER A FRONT OR REAR SHOCK, FOR 200 MM SCOOTS, NOT BOTH, MEATHEADS, INTO STEEL.
KEEP THE KICKSTANDS AND FRONT FENDERS OFF, since whatever designer and manufacturer, in China forgot to save weight and create performance advantages, after an initially smart concept.
The 200 mm needs support, by Great Offer Stock and companies like it, since the scooter industry is completely kiddie-oriented and perhaps pederast-operated, since it won't organize itself, logically, enough to support 200 mm scooters, with wheels, big enough, to get around.
