Since childhood, a person has been using various methods of transportation that allow him to quickly get to the desired place, save time and simply get a charge of pleasant emotions from fast driving. One of the most common and cheapest forms of transportation is a scooter. This simple gimmick is one of the most affordable ways to have a great time and get to your destination. Today we will talk about scooters from Micro, which is one of the most famous manufacturers of such vehicles.

The full name of the company from Switzerland that produces the scooters we are interested in is Micro Mobility Systems Ltd. It was established in the city of Kusnacht in 1996. For 23 years of production, the Micro scooter has become the embodiment of practicality, convenience, safety, simplicity, and ergonomics. The company manufactures various models, among which we can distinguish products for both children and adults, as well as electric scooters.

Particular attention is paid, of course, to children's models. For example, all models of the manufacturer are made of high-quality and durable materials, which allows for a fairly long-term operation of scooters and a low percentage of various malfunctions and breakdowns.

In addition, all Micro scooter models comply with domestic and international safety standards. This means that they are completely safe to use.

The vehicles in question are divided into two large types: children and adults. We will tell you more about each category.

If we talk about children's rulers, then there are several of them, and they, in turn, are classified depending on the age category of the child.

The first has a name Mini Micro. The models that are included in it are created specifically for babies aged one and a half to 5 years. They have the highest degree of safety, are very stable and extremely easy to operate. A low handle is also designed for the specified age range. The steering wheel, made in the shape of the letter "T", is easy to control.

The second line is named Maxi Micro... It is designed for children between the ages of 4 and 12. Such a scooter will allow the child to feel complete freedom of movement and try their hand at driving such a vehicle. The main difference from the above category is the height of the handlebars as well as the dimensions of the scooter.

Micro scooters with large wheels... These two-wheeled models are not as stable as the aforementioned ones. But nevertheless, they are convenient to operate, as well as to enjoy a comfortable and fast ride. Such scooters have been created not only for children, but also for adults.

The robustness of the structure allows the model to easily withstand a weight of up to 100 kilograms. Bearings are used here models ABEC-9.

Moreover, this the scooter is made of environmentally friendly and absolutely non-toxic materials, which is confirmed by relevant studies carried out by independent international experts.

Here, as in the above model, apply special bearings ABEC-9. They provide quiet and smooth rotation of the wheels, and also allow the scooter to operate for a very long time without maintenance of the wheels.

It should also be noted that the load-bearing parts of the structure and the platform are made of high-strength polymers, which are additionally reinforced with fiberglass for maximum reliability.

As for accessories, this manufacturer can really please the users of their scooters and offer them a wide range of various useful things. The manufacturer sells the following kind of accessories:

• helmets and protection kits;
• wheel covers and reflectors;
• various kinds of bags and backpacks;
• devices for carrying scooters;
• various holders and bottles;
• useful accessories such as a case, bell, flashlight, horn, mill;
• ribbons and various sleeves;
• anti-theft devices for the scooter, in particular, locks;
• wheels and brakes;
• handles and grips;
• other devices.

As you can see the range of Micro accessories and spare parts is indeed very diverse, which will be extremely important if a part breaks down or if it needs to be replaced for other reasons.

Now let's try to figure out how to choose a Micro scooter for the little ones. The first point to pay attention to is the junction of the steering wheel and the footboard. This joint is usually the most vulnerable part of the scooter and the most likely to break.

One more moment - it is better to choose a frame made of aluminum or steel. In addition, the attachment points should be inspected. There should not be any scrolling or dangling parts or elements.

Besides, the footrest must be treated with a special material to prevent slipping. If a scooter with a foot brake was chosen, then be sure to check its operation and reliability before use.

If the vehicle has baskets or other accessories, it is required to check that they are firmly fixed, and see that their location does not interfere with the ride... In addition, it will not hurt for parents to study the characteristics of the model that they want to buy for the child - its dimensions must correspond to the weight and height of the child.

When choosing a scooter for an adult, you should pay attention to three points:

• transport must withstand a load of up to 100 kilograms;
• it should be with a steering wheel that can be adjusted in height;
• it should correspond to the person's riding style and should be comfortable to drive.

The rules for operating Micro scooters are quite simple and practically do not differ in different models. First, before using, you need to make sure that the handle of the scooter is well fixed. Be sure to wear protective equipment before riding. In addition, you should try to ride on flat roads, since the scooter's brake is not designed for descending from a mountain and serious acceleration. Before using this mode of transport, it needs to be expanded.

The manufacturer also advises to ride only in the daytime with good lighting on a dry and level surface.

The manufacturer emphasizes that in no case should you try to upgrade the scooter. Otherwise, the company is not responsible for such transport, in addition, reminds that a number of parts are subject to wear and may lose their effectiveness. In this case, they need to be replaced. Moreover, they need to be changed only for original spare parts from this manufacturer.
