My husband and I switched from riding bicycles to these black and white scooters; at first, due to habit, it was difficult to maintain balance and ride, but after the second time, we were enamored with scooters in general. An incredible thing, it rolls quickly, it looks great, unlike the no-name Chinese models, and it doesn't play or dangle anything. Unlike a bicycle, it doesn't take up much space, is simple to fold, and is convenient to carry while using public transportation or while walking. See full review
