Supporting up to 110 lbs, it offers a smooth, quiet ride on durable polyurethane wheels and a flexible fiberglass deck. With a 2-year warranty and replaceable parts, it’s engineered for long-lasting fun and superior control, making it the top choice for young urban riders. ## Description The Maxi Kickboard is the highest rated scooter for ages 5 to 12. Kids love the ride, and you will love the years of fun and exercise it gives, making it one of the best value presents you can buy your child. The smooth gliding Maxi has a curving and carving action that allows kids to surf the sidewalk like a skateboard, with the handlebar providing greater control and maneuverability. Kids use their body weight and handlebar to lean into a turn, resulting in smooth, safe turns. The Micro Maxi has the smoothest, quietest ride available thanks to high quality polyurethane wheels and a flexible fiberglass reinforced deck, which together absorb bumps in the sidewalk. The Micro Maxi is recommended for kids up to 110 lbs. Its exceptionally strong construction is flexible and light weight, making it a great cruising scooter for urban and suburban neighborhoods alike. Many kids use their Micro Maxi to ride the sidewalk to school. Steering: Choose between the traditional T-Bar or the Joystick for maximum curving and carving action. The handlebar styles are interchangeable and available as an Accessory, so if you choose the T-Bar to start you can upgrade to the Joystick as skills develop. Both Maxi's steering sticks extend from 24 in to 34 in above the deck. Review: Buy this one, and you'll never have to buy another scooter again. It's that great! - If you are buying a scooter and are willing to spend a bit more to get a great item, buy this one. It's easy to see why it's an award winner! My children (ages 6 and 4) wanted scooters for their birthdays, and honestly I did not know a single thing about scooters aside from seeing other kids riding them. So I did a lot of research before purchasing. I saw all of the mediocre to negative reviews many of the more widely sold and more common scooters had. If I'm going to spend money I want to buy a quality item that is built to last, gives superior performance and is user/kid-friendly. The Maxi Kick Scooter is worth every dollar! I will never have to buy another scooter for my kids again because these are designed to perform. They go as fast as your child can go. They turn as tightly as your child can turn. My kids will be able to enjoy them just as much 5 years from now as they do today. I can't say enough how glad I am that I found this brand to purchase! I bought the purple for my daughter and the navy blue for my son (it's nice that the company offers so many color options). The colors are great, and the scooters look very nice. They are light yet very sturdy, and you can just feel the quality in the construction. It would take quite a lot to tear one of these up. They don't look like every other scooter you see scooting around, and they certainly don't perform like those others! The company describes riding the scooter as "street surfing", and that is absolutely accurate! My husband and I had a blast scooting around our kitchen the night before the kids' birthdays! These scooters are awesome! Hold on to the handles and lean in the direction you want to go. The wheels adjust and the scooter heads that way. Get good enough and you can take some pretty tight corners! We were able to practice enough to negotiate around the peninsula in our kitchen without having to put our feet down and without slowing down. Fun! The kids were of course very excited the next morning when they received their scooters. As soon as we took them outside they picked up on the "lean and steer" right away. The brake is over the rear wheel, and they have had no problems learning to use that either. My son loves being able to stop quickly! Our neighbor kids (ages 4-12) come over to our yard as often as they can, and they always want to ride my kids' scooters. They say they are really "cool". (They have the more common type of scooters, and they say that their scooters don't go as fast or steer as well.) The T-bar adjusts in a second, no tools required. That is a great feature when you have children of various ages using the scooter. Plus it makes the scooter user-friendly for smaller kids. Although the company recommends the scooter for ages 5-11 we went ahead and bought one for our 4-year-old rather than going with the Micro Mini, and that was the right decision to make. Our daughter picked it up just as quickly as her older brother, and they race each other up and down the driveway now. After seeing how awesome these scooters are and how well they perform, I ordered the Micro Mini 3-in-1 Kick Scooter for our soon-to-be 2-year-old daughter. She will receive hers for her birthday, and I am certain that I will be just as pleased with that purchase as I am with the Maxi Scooters! Review: The kids love these scooters - These are really sturdy compared to cheaper scooters. Easy to use, easy to assemble, keeps kids entertained for a long time. I’ll keep getting these in the various iterations as they grow up. ## Features - The innovative Micro brand is known by families for its smooth-gliding, long-lasting scooters for children and adults. - Micro's 3-wheeled Maxi Original scooter, with a lean-to-steer design, offers a stable ride that supports children as they curve and carve the sidewalk. - Incredibly strong (holds up to 110lbs) yet extremely lightweight, perfect for elementary-children; plus an adjustable T-bar (handlebar) grows with children from age 5 up to age 12. - Offering a gold standard 2-year manufacturer's warranty and award-winning customer service, combined with replaceable parts, your Maxi Original scooter is sure to last, virtually forever! - No assembly required: simply insert T-bar (handlebar) into the deck and ride!

Was it delivered in a box with a picture or plain box?** A: It comes boxed. I don't specifically remember the design but it had the item name and a picture on it. I Highly recommend this scooter. All of my daughter's friends like it better than their own. **Q: How much weight does it hold?** A: It holds me and I'm 250 pounds. I don't ride it much, it's my kids scooter. But it seems very solid. **Q: Where can you get replacement parts? Kids broke the piece that locks the handle in place** A: http://www.microkickboard.com/replacement-parts/maxi-kick-scooter-parts(It seems the URL has changed since this question was answered back on Dec, 2014.) **Q: adjustable handle?** A: The handle bars are adjustable up and down. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Buy this one, and you'll never have to buy another scooter again.
