The Pocket Mod Electric Scooter is a miniature European
styled scooter. It is developed by Razor USA as a miniature or replica model of the famous Vespa scooter that was developed by the Italian bike makers Piaggio. As you can see by the picture, the engine cowling and overall shape of the Pocket mod
is very similar to a Vespa, however it is far easier to run and maintain as it uses an electric motor.
Simply plug the scooters battery adapter into a wall socket for a few hours and the scooter is ready to go
again. A fully charge electric motor lasts up to one hour of constant driving.
As with the Vespa design, the pocket mod has a flat floorboard so that the rider can adopt a comfortable,
forward facing position. The front fairing provides protection from wind and any other resistance which leads to
safer and comfortable riding.
For kids keen to get an electric scooter or any type of scooter for that matter, then the pocket mod is one to
consider. It is reasonably priced and looks good to boot. There are a range of colors all based on the same design
and configuration. So you have the Sweet pea pink pocket mod electric
scooter, the Vapor black scooter, the mint electric scooter and the red
version. In fact there is a color that will suit most children's wishes.
As already mentioned the scooter is powered by an electric motor that has a maximum speed of 15 mph. This is
fast enough for children and for use on sidewalks or off road areas.
It is well designed, having the standard disk brakes with handlebar control of braking and acceleration. Rubber
tires and a suspension system ensure that the rider remains comfortable even over bumpy terrain.
There is storage space under the seat, just like a Vespa. Other similarities include the centrally located
kickstand to secure the scooter when it is not running.
This scooter makes an ideal Christmas present or gift, especially for girls as it has a stylish and cool look
while also having the reliable power system for getting around.
Remember that a helmet must be worn when riding the scooter. Even elbow and knee guards might be appropriate for
some riders. Whilst it is not heavy and handles like pretty much like a plain old bicycle, it does take a bit
of getting used to for new riders. After a day however the rider will be comfortable and confident in handling the
scooter.
