Why it works

It is the scooter you see at the gates of half the schools, and it lasts: the handlebar rises from 67 to 91 cm, so it goes with them from the first year of primary school (primero de primaria) almost to secondary school. It turns when they lean, which feels natural from the first day. According to the listing, the deck is reinforced with fibreglass.

Our verdict

If the budget stretches, it is the purchase that does not have to be repeated two years later. For under-fives, the folding Globber costs half as much and suits them better.

They will like it if

  • they walk to school and want to go on wheels
  • they have outgrown their first scooter
  • you want a big gift shared between several relatives

Bear in mind

  • it is expensive compared with similar scooters
  • it does not fold: the handlebar comes off, but it is bulky
  • the helmet is separate and not optional

What's in the box

  • Handlebar adjustable from 67 to 91 cm
  • Maximum load: 50 kg
  • 120 mm wheels with LED lights
  • Rear brake
  • 3 wheels
