Hi dear, I am about to buy this scooter and my only concern left is the distance between the front wheel and the riders legs, are they too close?

Hi. No it looks like that in the picture but there is plenty of room between the front wheel and the board where you stand. My 9 year old loves it and its adjustable so he can grow with it.

It looks cool but my 6 & 8 year olds rarely ride it. Awkward positioning and ability to do tricks are downsides.

Hello, I think it just might depend on the size of the person that you are purchasing this for. If it it is for a smaller child, then perhaps it might be. My son is not that tall however. He is about 5'0" and he LOVES it. Kids are so quick to adapt and agile, they learn to ride equipment so fast. My son quickly learned to ride the Sbyke because he had a normal scooter first. So that helped. I hope this answers your question. Overall, my son loved this product and I had no regrets when "Santa" delivered it to our house for CHristmas :-) -- Blessings, Mellie

I'm not sure. I haven't got it mounted yet but I have two motor scooters and I believe they will work fine from what I've seen. I am going to put some carpet pieces inside to help and think that will make them snug. My scooters are a 150cc which has fairly big tires and a 49cc which has small tires but it looks like the carpet will take care of that one. Dale

You can make them fit, BUT.......... I would NOT put these on a scooter, I was so disappointed, I ended up throwing mine away AVOID THESE, THEY ARE SMALL, THEY ARE CHEAP MADE, THE LIGHT WIRES ARE IN THE WAY & GET RIPPED OUT, THE LOCKS ARE CHEAP TOO

4.5" this is a very low scooter. My wife also has leg problems and loves this scooter. Jon Hallock

My daughter is tall and always was. Because there are no pedals I'd say you got more room than with a traditional bike. Unfortunately she has no interest yet in using it. She loves her scooter too much.

I asked my daughter, the one who used the scooter, and she said it's just a matter of placement. She found that if she positioned her knee so that the top edge of the boot landed in the space between cushions with her upper knee (where the greater portion of weight is carried) on the forward cushion then it was fairly comfortable. Hope that helps - and I hope you have a quick recovery!

I would say that the bike is ok for a shorter ride like in your subdivision and maybe even a bike trail. However, having longer legs due to my height has made the longer bike rides a bit uncomfortable.

Hey Scooter. I have an 18spd Norco Big Foot and my Frugah works excellent with it. I have had no issues though I wish I could have more resistance as I build leg strength. There should be no derailleur issues at all; and the rear axle should be left as it is. I didn't need to change anything.

Same thing here! The wheel in front split...I contacted Amazon and they immediately responded. I've since sent the scooter back and have gotten a refund. It came from Next Sport thru Amazon

I would say go with the two answers you got. I'm not really familiar with scooters and big bore kits any more. My apologies

Yes, it's the main issue I read about. Do not go through puddles ect. It is fast and quite good on hills for a battery type scooter.

Not sure best bet is to call the manufacturer of the scooter. sorry that i couldn't help.

The ground clearance on my unit is 3 1/2". I might also add this is a wonderful unit for the money. I have had mine almost 4 years and I have not replaced the batteries yet and they still hold a good long range charge. I highly recommend this scooter.

I think you'll be pleasantly surprised by the scooter's sturdy design. I think the height will be fine.

No breakdowns on our scooters! Our neighbor has had one for 1 year and has had no breakdowns either. The tires are very sturdy on the E300S. My husband and I ride our kids scooters when we take them to the desert. They will even do a small amount of off road if the sand isn't too deep - very fun!
