Don't waste your money on a plastic scooter! For less than £1 more than the plastic Micro Mini Scooter you can have the real thing - The Micro Mini Light, designed specifically for 3-8yr olds - the smallest, lightweight aluminium Micro scooter that will grow as your child grows.
As has been proven by the pnenomenal success of Early Rider - our kids' bike without pedals and stabilisers - children benefit enormously from learning to ride on two wheels, in terms of confidence, co-ordination and balance. We think adventurous, lively children will soon get bored with a three-wheeled scooter.
The Micro Mini Light, at 2.4Kg weighs only 400g more than the Mini Micro Scooter, (maximum load of a mere 20Kg /3.15 stones), yet is five times stronger carrying up to 100Kg, more than 15 stones.
The handlebar of the Micro Mini Light is adjustable from 540-920mm meaning than the scooter can start lower and then grow with your child, lasting until they are ready to have a more 'extreme' model. Additionally the handlebar will fold down to make the Micro Mini Light very easy to carry but has a tamper-proof locked position to prevent mishaps for smaller kids. The plastic Mini Micro has a fixed handlebar at 660mm.
The deck height of the Micro Mini Light has been lowered to help with gaining confidence for smaller children.
We think that all this adds up to a much better deal for both kids and parents - in fact we and our own kids were so disappointed with the Mini Micro that we've switched them to Mini Micro Lights and stopped selling the three wheeler altogether.
