Front wheel size
The diameter of the front wheel(s) of the scooter.
This parameter is selected by the manufacturer depending on the type, age category and general purpose of the scooter. If we compare similar models with different wheel diameters, then it is worth considering that the larger the wheels, the better they work on the bumps in the road, and the higher the cross-country ability. And small wheels, in turn, are great for smooth asphalt and dynamic driving, they easily accelerate and allow you to make sharp turns.
Rear wheel(s) size
The diameter of the rear wheel(s) of the scooter. See "Front wheel diameter" for details on the value of this parameter.
Max. height
The maximum height to which the height-adjustable handlebar can be set (or just the height of the handlebar in the working position, if height adjustment is not provided).
The height of the handlebars should be such that the rider can stand on the deck straight, without bending his back, and hold on to the handles with slightly bent arms. At the same time, there is no unambiguous relationship between this parameter and the height of the rider. So the perfect option to determine the optimal height is to try it yourself, and then choose a scooter based on the result.
Weight
The total weight of the scooter; for electric models it is the total operating weight is indicated, with batteries installed.
This option has two meanings. Thus, lighter scooters accelerate and manoeuvre better and require less effort from the user. In turn, more massive models maintain speed longer and are more stable on the course. In addition, note that less weight, other things being equal, means either less strength or more cost.
The lightest modern scooters weigh
less than 2 kg — these are mostly relatively inexpensive classic models and kickboards (see "Type"). Sports models already have a weight
of 2.5 kg, and often more. The most massive among non-self-propelled models are scooters —
from 5 kg. And electric scooters inevitably turn out to be heavy due to motors and batteries, their mass can reach
10 kg or even more.
