  • Some Assembly Required
Color: Pink/Black
Before you order this scooter, make sure that you have all necessary tools, or buy it with sufficient lead time needed to take it to a bike shop for assembly. You may consider this a toy but it will very likely be used on Public Street and your child’s life may be at risk if not assembled correctly. Tools Needed: 1. 6mm Allen wrench 2. An adjustable wrench or 9, 10, 14 & 15 mm box end wrenches or sockets 3. Cable cutters or sharp scissors or utility knife 4. Air pump or compressor 5. Optionally pliers, super glue, lock tight, grease, small shrink tube lighter and gloves I paid for this scooter myself and was not compensated in any way for this review. First, it is much larger than a standard kick scooter. It will easily handle riders in excess of 150 lbs. It is a heavy scooter and may be too big for a child under age 7. The box clearly states “Age 8+”. There is no provision for folding and I have to put the rear seat down to get it in a standard hatchback car (Nissan Versa). Because it is bigger and has nice 12” wheels, it glides over most bumps, cracks, and irregularities. Large potholes and slotted storm drain covers are still serious hazards. Packaging was very good. The box indicated that it should not be placed on its side and did not show any signs of having been dropped or damaged. The scooter had all parts zip tied to the frame and was a little challenging to pull up out of the box. I used wire snips to cut off all zip ties and removed the paper and plastic wrapping to inspect the parts. The wheels are delivered totally flat. An air pump or compressor will be needed. Be forewarned, the clamp on my hand pump that holds the chuck on the valve stem would not fit between the hub and rim. I had to use my compressor. If your bike pump doesn’t fit, take the wheels to a service station for air prior to attaching them to the frame. Construction quality is on par with any low priced consumer good mass produced in China. In my instance, the rear brake pads were tightened out of alignment with the rim. You will very likely need to adjust the brake pads. As other reviewers noted the brake cable ferrules are not crimped correctly and will fall off. Put a drop of super glue in it and tap it in place or just wrap the wire end in electrical tape, or use a short piece of shrink tube on the end. The handlebars are not attached. You will need to remove 4 Allen bolts and position the handlebars. I was able to do this single handed, but a second person to hold them in place would ease this task. Once the handlebars are positioned and tightened the brake cables will need to be attached. There are two cables on the right for the rear brake and one coming up out of the stem tube to be attached to the left brake handle. Adjusting the brakes is not difficult, just take your time and tighten everything when done. 1. Loosen the nut clamping the cable at the rear calipers. 2. Route the two cables attached to the right brake lever through the handlebars and down to the upper cable stop. 3. Screw the alloy barrel adjusters all the way into the upper cable stop and slide the beaded end sideways into the detangler. 4. Hold the rear brake calipers closed against the wheel rim and pull the brake cable taught at the calipers. 5. Tighten the caliper cable clamp nut. 6. Adjust the brakes at the calipers, detangler and at the lever as necessary so that the wheel turn freely and stops easily when the brake lever is engaged. Now on to the front brakes, 1. Loosen the nut clamping the cable at the front calipers 2. Push the cable up into the head tube until you have enough slack to reach the left brake lever. 3. Screw the barrel adjuster most of the way in and align the slots in the barrel adjuster, nut and break lever. 4. Slip the cable end into the round opening under the break lever and feed the cable into the slot on the barrel adjuster. 5. Turn the barrel adjuster ½ turn. 6. Hold the front brake calipers closed and pull the cable tight. 7. Tighten the caliper cable clamp nut 8. Adjust the barrel adjusters at both ends until the front wheel turns freely and stops easily when the brake lever is engaged. Assembly took me exactly 40 min from the time the box arrived to first test ride. I provided detailed instructions on what is required to assemble this scooter so that potential purchasers are able to make an informed decision prior to purchasing. My daughter’s first scooter was a $20 scooter. This was to gauge her interest and ability. She didn’t use her scooter much until about age seven. In the past 3 months, she has been using it every day and has worn it out. Since this is not a review of that scooter, I will not go into detail. Suffice it to say she couldn’t keep up with her friends and small bumps caused tumbles that left her fearful of sidewalks and some streets in our neighborhood. Now with the Mongoose she has confidence and can keep up with her friends. All of the kids prefer her scooter over any other brand or style. As a parent, I would rate it 4 stars, for size and build quality but my daughter says “it is a solid 5” and since she is the one who rides it every day I gave it a five. After her first test ride I removed the axel pegs from the rear, as she did hit them occasionally with her ankle when kicking. I later reattached them to the front axle, but I am not sure if I will keep them on or not. ... show more

  • Had to improvise during assembly, but happy overall
Color: Black/Blue
I bought this for my 7 year old (who loves it). The scooter looks and rides great. I docked 1 star for assembly which can be a bit tedious. The real issue is for me was the handle bar socket would not tighten enough when the 4 bolts were completely screwed in. The handle bars would move forward and back which made the scooter inopperable. To fix this I took a sheet of alluminum foil and folded it over about 4 or 5 times with about an 1.5 inch fold (slightly wider the the socket the handle bars are secured into) and wrapped it around the bar (bottom bar of the handle bars where it is socketed and bolted to the scooter) to artifically "fatten" the thickness of the bar itself. This thickened the bar a bit and made it so that the handlebar stayed in place when I tightened the 4 botls all the way. Maybe it was just my unit, but for whatever reason (be it the bar not being fat enough, or the bracket being to big) the handlebar to bracket connection wasn't stable when fully tightened, so fattening the bar with alluminum foil was what did the trick. I'd imagine a piece/strip of something rubbery would work as well. FYI, I found a video online of a guy who put this exact unit together which helped a lot. Especially with the brakes which can be a PIA with bikes and scooters. Just search this scooters name under videos and it will come up. As for the scooter itself, my kid loves it. It looks really nice, and my son repeatedly said it's "OG dad", as his smile brimmed from ear to ear. For the eighty'ish or so quid it is well worth it. ... show more

  • GREAT SCOOTER, BUT, ONLY IF you are an experienced bike mechanic.
Color: Pink/Black
Once I finished assembling the scooter and getting it ready, it is a truly great scooter for the price. It is a thing of beauty (florescent pink), rock solid, steady and tracks straight. My 7 year old even prefers this one to her electric scooter. I weigh more than its weight limit yet it handles me with the greatest of ease (I needed to break-in the wheels' bearings/cones/races quickly). The price is VERY GOOD for it's looks, construction and selection of materials. It is an excellent scooter and will be very durable. BUT ONLY because I have worked on bicycles and scooters for over 50 years. Now here's the BAD news: It came well packaged in a well padded box. The manufacturer took great care packaging this little beauty. Once I started to put it together, I discovered that who ever assembled this thing at the factory must have been a totally incompetent employee. I needed a great of the Special Bicycle Tools I have to assemble, fix, adjust, modify and re-adjust to make this scooter go to its potential. A person who does not have a great deal of bicycle mechanic experience would have had to pay a pro to put this thing together. It took me several hours of labor to get this scooter functioning properly. So you may want to inquire what your local shop rates are before you buy. Here are some of the issues I encountered: 1) The headset bearings/races were very loose and needed special wrenches to adjust. The lock nut was loose too (safety issue). 2) The wheel bearings were seriously over tightened and the wheels would barely spin. It would have been a miserable experience for a child to get this moving and then it would not stay in motion when gliding. I needed special wrenches to loosen the cones to make it usable. Then after a few hours of use, I adjusted the cones again. Now it rolls like heaven (for the price range that is). 3) The brake calipers were crooked and I needed a special tool to align them with the wheels (it required a special tool to bend them safely). 4) The break pads were all either loose, crooked, and/or rubbed on the tires. The pads felt oily and would not have provided safe braking, so I used 100 grit sand paper to give them some grip for safe braking. The brake pads were a safety issue. 5) The brake cables both were grossly mis-set and they were not tightened to the calipers. One cable was 4 inches too long. Both cable end caps fell off into the shipping box. I had to use a cable cutter, put on new cable end caps, and use a crimper. The rear cable housing was pulled so far forward that it kinked at the adjustment barrel. The brake cables were a safety issue. 6) The brake cable adjustment barrels weren't even screwed in to the calipers! The calipers were not properly tightened to the frame and were mounted crooked. That means the brakes would have been always rubbing on one side of the wheel. It would be like having a partially applied brake at all times. 7) The handlebar stem bolts were partially inserted into their holes for shipping (and safe keeping until later assembly). Two of the bolts were cross threaded and crooked. Thankfully they weren't forced too far into the holes and I managed to get them in straight. If you are a bicycle mechanic enthusiast or pro, by all means, buy this scooter! Otherwise you will NEED to go to a bike shop for assembly and adjustments (repeated adjustments). Nothing says screw you better to your friendly local bike shop owner than buying online and then asking your local shop to fix your problems huh? Bottom line. Heck yeah I would get another one of these scooters. I am strongly considering the adult version of this for myself (for occasional use). If you are not a mechanic and try to assemble this one yourself, it will likely be unsafe and most certainly miserable for a small child get into motion and keep it there. Given the brake rub and over tightened wheel bearings, this scooter would not be fun for a child and likely end up just taking space in your garage. Nothing drives people away from cycling and scooter sports faster than mal-adjusted human powered vehicles. Good luck on your decision! ... show more
