Our Score | 7.2 out of 10 |
Our Verdict | The KickPed is suitable for people who want a more comfortable and less bumpy ride on the scooter and are willing to compromise on a little less speed.With it’s narrow deck design, it is slightly more portable than the rest of the other scooters. Be ready to deal with the bad smell from the tires for the first few weeks and some rattling sounds from the spring on the handle bar when scooting. |
