Why Opt for a Pro Scooter?
Pro scooters are ideal if you desire a robust scooter made to withstand tricks and stunts. Although they are entirely adequate for transportation and casual play, their main benefit is their sturdy design and capacity to endure strong impacts. If durability is more important to you than features like adjustable handlebars or a folding mechanism, then a pro scooter is your perfect match.
How to Choose the Right Pro Scooter (The Swiftest Online Guide)
Prior to selecting a model, it's essential to determine your requirements based on your height, skill level, and preferred scooter riding style. By doing so, you'll ensure obtaining a scooter that feels harmonious and assists in achieving your potential.
Overall scooter height
Overall scooter height indicates the distance from the ground to the top of the scooter bar. Measure from the ground to your hips, adding 5 centimetres. This measurement serves as a valuable starting point when deciding on a particular scooter height. Refer to our scooter size guide for additional details.
Skill level
Every scooter in our collection indicates a recommended skill level for users, helping you select a model suited to your current expertise.
Overall scooter height and skill level are the most crucial factors when choosing a complete pro scooter. If you select a model considering these two criteria, the scooter should maintain a proper balance in other elements as well.
Additional Features to Consider
For those serious about selecting the appropriate complete pro scooter, consider examining the following features.
Deck width
A smaller foot size necessitates a narrower deck. Slimmer decks (up to 5.5") are more manoeuvrable, making them ideal for beginners mastering basic tricks. As skills develop and street riding becomes your focus, opting for a wider, box-shaped deck is common. Conversely, for intricate park riding, a narrower, peg-cut deck may be preferable. Explore our guide to scooter decks.
Bar width
Bar width should approximate the rider’s shoulder span. Excessive width can complicate bar spins and other tricks, while insufficient width can hinder control. Refer to our guide to scooter bars.
Wheel core material
The material used in the wheel core is a reliable indicator of a scooter's quality. Wheel cores are typically crafted from either nylon or aluminium, with aluminium being the more durable option. For those already performing tricks and aiming to advance – or for heavier riders – avoiding nylon core wheels is advisable. Refer to our guide to scooter wheels.
Headset type
A scooter equipped with integrated headset bearing cups is preferable if you wish to upgrade the headset later. While many introductory scooters feature non-integrated headsets, an integrated headset is better suited for beginners planning to perform tricks and stunts – offering a more resilient, long-standing investment. Experienced riders understand an integrated headset is indispensable. Consult our guide to scooter headsets.
Compression system
A scooter's bar, deck, and fork are connected by the compression system. SCS, HIC, and IHC are common compression systems for pro scooters. SCS provides the most robust compression, whereas HIC and IHC are lighter alternatives. Review our guide to scooter compression.
If the detailed options seem overwhelming, we suggest basing your selection on the scooter’s designated skill level, determined by its part quality. Naturally, more expensive scooters tend to incorporate superior components.
Benefits of Purchasing a Complete Pro Scooter (Rather than Constructing a Custom One)
For those new to pro scooters, a complete model offers significantly better value than assembling one from various components. It's a budget-friendly method to acquire a well-balanced configuration, ready to use post-assembly. When the time comes to modify it to match personal preferences or replace worn components, an array of scooter parts will be available.
Complete pro scooters are suitable not only for novices – advanced riders can also find high-end models designed with premium components. These options showcase an exceptional cost-performance ratio. Thus, experienced riders seeking to substitute most parts on their current setup should consider a high-quality complete scooter from our range as a potential solution.
Are Complete Pro Scooters Pre-Assembled?
The answer is both yes and no. Complete pro scooters arrive partly assembled within a box. Some assembly is necessary before they're ready to ride. Ensure that you follow the instructions provided in the scooter's manual, and don’t forget to view the video guide:
