Kick scooter

A kick scooter is a two-wheeled vehicle that relies on human power for operation. They typically consist of a platform on which the rider stands and to which a wheel is attached at either end. A set of handlebars and a turning mechanism are attached to the front.

The kick scooter has been around for well over a hundred years. However, today’s versions have been refined considerably. They are often made from aluminum, can be folded up for easy carrying, and are considerably less heavy.

The average kick scooter today is designed primarily for kids. They have become a popular alternative to the bicycle and skateboard and are ridden by millions of children. There are, however, adult versions that use better, more heavy-duty components.
