- Good Bearings – Quality bearings used for the kick scooter wheels ensure smooth rotation of the wheels, so that you travel longer distances with each kick stride.
- Low Deck Height – As you will be kicking to move the scooter, a deck height closer to the ground ensures there is less bent and stress on your knees, especially for the leg that stays on the scooter deck. It is less tiring to kick scoot when the deck height is low.
