How to use?
When purchasing a Y-Scoo scooter, it is important to know how to use it. Three-wheeled scooters for children are fully prepared for the trip. After unpacking the product, the steering wheel is placed in a standard hole, making a click. There are versions that you can simply unfold and drive, only by choosing the required steering height.
When preparing for trips on three-wheeled and two-wheeled models, it is imperative to find out what the driving hand will be. A foot is placed on the platform on the same side. You need to become it near the front edge of the scooter. The second leg is placed as it is convenient, but usually on the ground slightly behind the supporting limb.
The inclination of the body is selected individually. It is better to bend forward, but for individual riders it will be more comfortable to stand upright. Leaning back is impractical.
They start moving by pushing off the ground. When using the hand brake, the scooter is steered straight and then pressed on the steering lever... The steering wheel itself is kept strictly straight, avoiding skidding and overturning. The foot wing brake is simply stepped on with the foot, thereby pressing down on the wheels and slowing down the movement.
Protective equipment must be worn. Experienced scooter owners always draw the attention of beginners to the need to practice correct, safe fall tactics.
Before and after each ride, the scooter must be inspected and checked, cleaned of dirt. A functional check should be performed after each strong impact or collision. If the scooter has large wheels, it can move quickly and therefore great care must be taken when riding.
If the vehicle skids to the right or left, then a balancing error has been made. It is necessary to overcome this mistake diligently and immediately, without waiting for it to turn into unpleasant consequences. Riding in rainy or wet conditions should be avoided unless absolutely necessary.
It is advisable to carry the scooter on public transport in a case. In case of any unusual "activity" of the device, you should immediately contact the service center.
Reviews
The TRIO 120 MAXI lacks shock absorption, but the stiffness of the wheels makes up for this. It is noted that the frame does not loosen over time. The weight of the product provides an optimal balance between stability and maneuverability.
The My TOO 180 is praised for the convenience of locking the front brake. Users pay attention to the high maneuverability and flexible steering angle adjustment using the bicycle handlebar. However, the lack of shock absorption together with the monolithic design of the scooter makes it very tiring and unpleasant to ride on tiles and bad asphalt. The steering wheel can be a big obstacle in some transport gates.
The RT 230 Slicker Deluxe New Technology is made of excellent material and is sold at a great price. At the same time, users pay attention to the rejection of depreciation. The backlash is quite serious.
