In general, the products from this manufacturer are characterized by reliability and durability, which allows, without fear, to perform tricks or accelerate while driving.
However, the Chilli scooters, despite the overpriced, lack the details that make the ride comfortable: fenders above the wheels to keep feet from getting dirty in wet weather; shock absorbers that soften the landing; a footrest, thanks to which you do not need to lean the scooter on something.

Selection Tips
It doesn't matter if you want to buy a stunt scooter, for trips out of town or for your child, in the selection process, it is necessary not to forget about several important aspects.
- Frame. Foldable is suitable if convenience when transporting the scooter is important, but the one-piece frame itself is more durable.
- The weight. The optimal weight is considered to be 4-5 kg with a load of up to 150 kg. It is better to choose a base made of an alloy of aluminum and magnesium.
- Brakes. There are back and front manual. The latter option is more convenient, but more expensive. Stunt scooters need a rear brake.
- Shock absorbers. Their presence will allow the ride to become softer, but movement may be accompanied by a squeak.
- Soundboard. The coating should be anti-slip, and the width is selected individually.
- Wheels. It should be selected depending on the purpose of the scooter. For stunt or sports models, the optimal width is 100 mm, and for urban regular models, 180 to 200 mm is suitable. The optimal stiffness is 72A-76A.
- Bearings. You need ABEC 7 or 9. The more there are, the more reliable the bearing itself is.

Steering wheel selection
When choosing the steering wheel of a scooter, emphasis should be placed on its height and width. As for the height, for conventional models, it usually has the ability to change positions within several fixations. This allows you to adjust the vehicle to the height of its owner, especially when it comes to buying a scooter for a child or teenager whose height may change. For a safe and comfortable ride, the position of the handlebars should be slightly higher than the lower back.
If the position is too high in relation to the child, then the control will be more difficult and inconvenient.

Urban models are usually narrower (35 cm) than stunt models (up to 55 cm). Conventional scooters have removable handles, which makes them convenient and compact for transportation. The fixing method is the same for most vehicles of this type. Some models may have an additional clamp for a more rigid fixation. The stability of the entire structure can also depend on the width of the handlebars, and removable parts are the guarantor of mobility.
