Razor E 100 Electric Scooter Scooters Sports & Outdoors
This scooter also achieves a claimed maximum speed of up to 10 mph and promises “up to 40 mins” of battery life for a MSRP of $209.00. You’ll need to kick off to start the motor, but twisting the throttle on the handlebar, even when I was rolling, didn’t always engage it. A quick second twist usually did the trick, but that meant I awkwardly had to kick off hard a few times at traffic lights.
And though the enthusiasm around their products might not match the peak hysteria of their initial release, they’ve managed to retain a devoted fan base and consistently win over new riders. For kids ages 6-14, we’d recommend Segway Ninebot’s line of kids’ scooters, which range in size and motor power depending on the rider’s height. When it comes to kids scooters, Razor has new models like the E90 and E100 for razor hoverboards youngsters age 8 and above. Their beginner scooters range in price from around $169 to $229, and they appeal to parents because they are some of the most inexpensive models on the market and come from an established brand. If you’re shopping for an electric scooter for kids, Razor might be the first name that comes to mind. But scooters have come a long way since the 90s when Razors first became popular.
Razor sells several different electric scooters and even sells the same scooters under different names for different retailers. In general, the larger the model number, the faster the scooter will go, the more weight capacity it has, and the better tires it rolls on. However, Razor scooters for kids do not compare well to other electric scooters for kids that offer more value for the same money. It comes in different colors and lighting packages, but the base model Razor E100 weighs nearly 30 lb, takes 12 hours to charge, travels 7 miles, and achieves a top speed of 10 mph.
On a bike, if you brake with your left hand only, you’re braking the front tire which could send you flying over the front handlebars if you’re riding fast enough. So while a scooter is not a bike, if your child gets used to braking solely with their left hand, this could present a problem on a bike. Other than its drive controls, brake and accelerator, there really are none. An electric motor mounted at the rear of the deck drives the rear wheel with a chain and simple reduction gear.
The beefy rear-drive street machine boasts a 350-watt, kick-to-start, high-torque, brushless hub motor. A 36V lithium-ion pack, rechargeable battery provides a range of 20 miles and 80 minutes of continuous use. And, most importantly, the E-XR can hit 17 miles-per-hour on the flats — enough to get shirt-tails flapping, turn heads and cause wives to get that concerned look and ask about increasing life insurance. The front wheel is an 8″ air tire while the rear wheel is a smaller polyurethane wheel.
Razor has helped usher in the action sport of scooter riding, which has evolved from local skate parks to global competitions and tours. With a max speed of 10 mph, the razor E100 offers just enough speed to keep older kids engaged without being too fast for younger riders. Read the review below to find out how it compares to other electric scooters by Razor. Razor bills the E-XR as it’s most powerful electric scooter to date, with a laundry list of impressive specs.
If you’re shorter, like my partner, who’s 5-foot-2, you’ll have no trouble. In general, remind kids to stow their scooters upright after they’re done for the day. No flinging to the ground or leaving in the yard for someone to trip over. Find a spot where the scooter can be safely stored out of the way to reduce the risk of damage or accidents. If you are interested in making the scooter variable speed with a top speed adjuster then please let us know and we can figure out and let you know what parts would be needed. The only way to accomplish top speed adjustability would be to install a variable speed throttle and controller along with a throttle top speed adjuster which we carry.
Overall, the E100 is one of the best electric scooters for kids. Its 500W, high-torque, self-adjusting, chain-driven engine with a variable-speed, twist-grip throttle gives users the freedom and reliability to explore in style. Other features of this Pocket Mod electric scooter include a steel frame, shatter-resistant plastic fairings, soft rubber grips, hand-operated razor hoverboards dual disc brakes and much more.
