Upgrade Your Child’s Ride with Pro Scooter Parts

img_4289Upgrade Your Child’s Ride with Pro Scooter Parts

 

The sport of scootering has come a long way since its humble beginnings, and today you can find a wide selection pro scooters, as well as pro scooter parts. Most kids begin with a basic model bought from a toy or department store, which is great for beginners, but those who stick with scootering for a while will eventually want to do tricks requiring an upgrade. If you are thinking about purchasing a better scooter for your child, consider the following guidelines.

 

To begin, you will need to understand the difference between folding, locking , one-piece and pro scooters. A folding scooter is just as its name implies. It has a folding mechanism, and the handlebars are adjustable. These tend to be the least expensive type of scooter.

 

Locking scooters are also foldable, but they include a mechanism that can lock the scooter into place, and it is much sturdier than a simple folding scooter, allowing for more tricks and abuse. However, if your child is serious about scootering, a locking model may not be the most appropriate choice.

 

One-piece scooters do not fold. They are designed to maintain their position and are securely welded where a folding mechanism might go. These scooters are more expensive, but they can take a lot more stress, which means riders can perform tricks without fear that the scooter will fail. While rigid scooters are not pro-level, they can be customized with high-performance pro scooter parts.

 

Pro scooters are the cream of the crop. Used in competitions, these are the most expensive, and your child may eventually want to move up to this level. Most kids these days own a scooter, but only some will continue riding and grow an interest in attaining a greater skill level that would necessitate a pro scooter.

 

The bottom line is, before you shell out the big money for a child who may not be ready to compete, you will probably be better off going for a mid-range, rigid model and upgrade it with pro scooter parts.
