My son is 14 and about 5 ft 10 in tall. Will his height be a problem for this scooter? Looking for something strong for his tricks.

I would not recommend this scooter for your son. Solely because of his height. The bars are on the shorter side. You can get taller bars for it, but by the time you do that you might as well have just bought a scooter that was taller to begin. I recommend a phoenix, blunt or MGP scooter for someone that tall.

I don't believe it will be an issue, and Fuzion does sell higher bars, up to 24" if the stock 21.5" is too low for your son. I'm 5' 9" and the scooters felt ideal for me (we had to cut them down 2" for my sons).

You could, but I wouldn't recommend it for long term. We have 4 of these scooters, 1 is a 12 inch for my 5 year old, they aren't the best quality, but would last longer where we live than the type with skateboard wheels. Also it's pretty short. My almost 12 year old son is 5'2" and he's slightly hunched over riding it, even with the handle bars extended all the way up. There is a company that does make scooters for adults that would last longer long term, but they aren't cheap.

I think it would not be a very good fit for him. I am 5'9" and the stride is okay. However, my machine is not very sturdy and it is really noisy. I think this machine would drive him nuts. The foot pedals are also at a slant, so you sort of have to concentrate to keep your feet back or your toes will crunch. The machine is okay, but if I were any taller or heavier I am afraid it would just fall apart.

Hi, my son is almost 4 and is 39" tall and it works perfect for him. He loves it and can zip along, it's a great starter scooter.

My 2 year old just started being able to get on it himself and actually use it. My 5 1/2 year old is very tall and she just recently said she was getting too big for it. I would say he will be able to use is for a couple years and really like riding it around.

My son is 3.5 and about 40" tall. He got the maxi kick last year for Christmas at 2.5 and has been riding it since then. He does very well on it. Flies down driveways, uses the brake, turns, etc. I personally would get the maxi since it will grow with your son. I believe they both start at the same height, and although the maxi is a little bit heavier, it will last longer since the handlebar is adjustable.

My child is 4'9 & still uses the maxi, thanks to the steering stick that extends as the child grows. I use the kickboard compact (adult 3-wheel scooter) & I let my child borrow it, but he prefers his maxi. The maxi is for kids 5 - 12 years old, up to 120 lbs. Hope this helps.

I'm 6' and was about 215lb when I got mine, and it was never an issue. I've been really happy with it. My daughter was 4 last year and used an off the shelf toy scooter, but I'm thinking of getting her her own Razor so we can start a gang and terrorize the neighborhood ;)

My 7 year old boy rides it just fine... and my 13 year old son has also puttered around on it. The 7 year old actually prefers it over his Razor scooter (to our surprise!). Be aware, though - the handle bars are a SET height - no raising or lowering like you can on the Razor.

When my son was 8 he easily could ride my rockboard scooter. But with anything new it takes practice. I would advise if you get one to make sure to keep all the screws and bolts tight. they tend to loosen when used a lot. Not very good for a place with a lot of hills.

This ATV does have enough legroom for tall riders. We sell them at our retail outlet in Texas and have seen mostly parents buying it for their youth. So I think it will be purfect for your 14 year old.. Please feel free to contact us. :)

No. But it's a good height for my 2 year old and won't be too short for him to grow with. It's a really nice scooter.

Hi, this scooter is suitable for the height. my daughter is around 4 years age and when I bought it she had 38" tall and now she has also about 40", but it still works. I concern the age of 2 1/2 because it's designed for 3-5 years, Micro has lower age type but I think it's not worthy now for you. i recommond you can start from this mini micro for your 4 years child and cultivate the interest for your 2 1/2 child, when the younger child takes over it then you can but 5-12years type(maxi micro) for your older child. Kind regards!Jimmy

Should be fine. My daughter is 38 inches and my son even rides it ...he is 46 inches tall. Warning though..son tells me it is kinda slow compared to his standard razor scooter...I suppose this is a good thing since there is also no brake on the kixi mixi.

I am not sure what the recommended weight limit is. My son is only 8. I know my husband has ridden on the scooter but not for long intervals. I am sure it would work but over time the motor may give out sooner.

I guess it would depend on how tall the 5-year-old is. My 2-1/2 year-old granddaughter got right on hers and did pretty good with it although it was just a bit tall for her (she is very petite for a 2-year-old). So, I guess, it would depend on how tall/big the child is. My grandsons got on a regular scooter (a razor) when they were 4 and 5 and that worked very well for them.

I'm 6'2". Handle height is fine for me. As for the child, he should be good. Have a daughter about the same size, and still riding like a champ in the thing! Hope this helps you.
