Infinity Skates New York Foldable Kick Scooter (NYC) - Features Adjustable Height Handlebars, Suspension and Carrying Strap - City Commuter Series

Quality didn't seem the best, had to return the scooter due to a missing piece. Return was quick and easy.

This was the first scooter that I’ve ever purchased so I spent a lot of time researching before buying. I was looking for a scooter that would fold up for easy carrying and storage in my apartment, a carrying strap for when carrying it, a kickstand (I hate the idea of laying it on the ground) and with an adjustable handlebar so that I don’t have to stoop over while riding. This scooter had all of these things for a great price, plus I thought it was the best looking that I had seen.Build: The scooter itself is very solidly built from metal while also being very light, so I am guessing it is some sort of aluminum or other alloy. This isn’t a trick scooter for doing jumps, but more for cruising. The deck is nice and wide for my adult feet and the handlebars adjusted up high enough that I don’t have to bend over to use it. NOTE: The SYD model comes with the front wheel not attached. You have to install it by tightening one screw that they include. They also include two hex wrenches. You have to use both at once. Hold the bolt on one side with the first hex wrench to keep it in place, then tighten on the other side with the other hex wrench. You have to make sure it is really tight, obviously, as this wheel will be taking all the weight of the ride. I saw some other review saying the wheel came off, which obviously will happen if you don’t make sure the screw is done up real tight.Ride: Very smooth and stable while riding. The tires are urethane so they are good for the sidewalk and street in my neighborhood. The handle grips themselves are soft and comfortable, you don’t feel the metal handlebar underneath.Folding: This is the best part IMO. You pull on the black handle and the scooter folds in half. I can fit it in the hall closet easily. It also is handy when I want to carry it somewhere while out with it. I just fold and then use the carrying strap.I will update after a few more months if there are any issues.

While the scooter works fine, I’m pretty certain this was a return being sold as new. The boxes (both external and internal) were badly damaged. The allen keys were loose in the box and the handles looked slightly worn. I didn’t have time to return before Christmas, without disappointing my son, but I was disappointed for what I spent on it. My son enjoys riding around on it but has complained the front wheel is a bit noisy.

Really impressed with the quality of this scooter, especially at this price point. It's really solid and looks like it should last for ages and take plenty of abuse from kids. Easy to fold and unfold, and adjusts to suit a wide range of ages/heights. Nice and light-weight too.

I am reviewing London Gold scooter. I don’t have much experience with scooters, if any. Last time I rode a scooter I was 8 years old. 30 years later I have to keep up with my 8yo who rides Razor A5 DLX. Both are bigger scooters, suitable for adults. and I am able to ride both. DLX is much smaller, shorter and lighter, the max height of the handlebar is barely tall enough for me (I’m 5’8”). I purchased London model and have been riding it for a few days. I was pretty impressed with the quality of the scooter out of the box. I am not sure how it will hold up long term, but I plan to put it to good use this summer. The coolest thing about this scooter is the folding mechanism - it’s triggered with the loop at the top of the steering bar, so no bending; when folded, front wheel is locked between the extensions of the deck - no swinging around and hitting my ankles. I tested the trolley function at a local grocery store: you have to be careful not to scrape the ends of the deck that “hug” the front wheel, otherwise it is very nice if you don’t want to leave the scooter outside. It is a heavy scooter. It is also larger than most teen/adult scooters around. My kid can ride and haul around most of teen/adult scooters, but not this one. Also, the handlebar extends higher than in most scooters. Lowest position worked for a 10 year old, but barely. I can use both 1st and 2nd positioning hole, depending on the style of riding applied, but 1st hole is the most comfortable. I think it is really an adult scooter, 3rd hole (the highest) can suit a pretty tall person. Wheels are larger than average 200mm. I was hesitant to get 230mm front wheel, so 215mm was just perfect. The thing I like the least about this scooter is the break. It requires quite a bit of effort. It’s a lot easier to slow down and stop on the Razor scooter. The ride is smooth and effortless on the smooth surfaces. You are going to feel every bump on the rough sidewalk. I don’t get stuck in small cracks or trip over small stones, but obviously I have to avoid big cracks and potholes. Razor has traditional foam handles, while London has cool rubber grips which definitely don’t help to mute the vibration from the bumpy ride. Although rubber grips provide a more secure hold for sure. Just from riding Razor A5 DLX and London scooter, it appears that London model requires more effort to push, maybe it’s due to its weight or the fact that the deck is slightly higher off the ground. But cruising downhill is amazing. So, to me it’s a wonderful high quality adult cruising scooter suitable for a tall adult/teen. It has a couple of weaknesses but it’s a better scooter than others I have researched. It lived up to my (high) expectations, so far. I wish I could try out the other 2 models, especially NYC. I was not paid or reimbursed in any way to provide this review.
