  1. I have a question about this list. The Know-Ped has the highest score on the Editor’s Top Picks list in the sidebar. It has a front brake, yet it isn’t on this list of 10 Scooters with a front brake.

    Please explain.

  2. Hi Chris, You’re right. Definitely an oversight on our part. Thanks for the heads up! We’ve updated the list!

    • Cool! I changed the internet.

      Anyways…(I don’t know if this needs to be posted either)

      Thank you for the response. I’d like to ask some more questions but I don’t see a way to contact “Editor” beyond the comments section.

      I have been labouring over this decision for a while now. My only experience with kick scooters is the A5. From that I think I like the idea of owning a scooter and know that I would like something a bit more robust and refined. Based on reviews non seem more robust than the Know-Ped and by extension the KickPed. I liked the speed of the A5 though a slight decrease would likely be acceptable for a more stable wheel like that of the KnowPed/KickPed. There seem to be many that are more carefully refined than the Razor. The weight of the KnowPed/KickPed seems higher than most but not much more than the other higher end thinner wheeled competitors. I was leaning towards the KickPed because it’s basically a KnowPed that is styled a bit more to my liking. But I would love the actually hear an opinion from someone that has tried many different scooters.

      Thanks for your help.

      Chris

  3. Hi Chris,

    The KickPed has a narrower deck than the Know-Ped, which means after kicking off the ground, you’ll need to place your foot at the back. This can put a strain on your calf muscles after a while. Whereas for the Know-Ped, you’ll get to place your foot side by side.

    I would choose KickPed for the style and if I’m only using it for short distance commuting.

    And I would choose KnowPed if I’m going for longer rides and need comfort more than style. And if you really can’t decide. Get both! 🙂

    • Thanks for the reply.

      I think going from zero to two will be a tough sell for my wife, but we have to dream big I guess.

      I’m curious what defines short vs. long distances. I think my average trip will be about 5 km over city streets with occasional medium inclines. It couldn’t be described as steep but also not nothing. Wet ground is also not a rare occurance here. I know that because of the wider, smaller wheels/tires that they’re not quite as fast.

      Given the conditions I describe, do the KnowPed/KickPeds sound like they’re suited to my needs or could something else be better?

      • Hi Chris, Short distance to me is anything below 1km. Sounds like the Know Ped would be a better choice.

        And if I really have to recommend an alternative choice for you. The Xootr Ultra Cruz could be included into one of your options for consideration.

        It’s lighter in weight (10.5 lbs versus Knowped’s 15.3 pounds). Has a large deck for comfortable riding for long distance (more than 1km). And it can take a beating since you mentioned that there’s wet ground.
        It has a wooden deck that seems to what you’ve been leaning towards as well. Xootr has great after support too.

        Hope this helps!
