X-treme X-250 Electric Scooter Review PDF Print E-mail

The X-treme X-250 Electric Scooter is a great scooter for growing kids. The X-250 is simple, and the right size for your 8-15 year kid. The X-treme X-140 is for small kids, and then the next scooter up above the X-250 is the X-360, which is a bit too large for younger riders. The thing that really makes the X-treme X-250 stand out amongst the others, is the standard seat option that is included with the X-250 when you purchase one. The tires are pneumatic rubber tires, and the rims are aluminum mag wheels. The 8" tire size is also a great standard feature on the X-250, as it helps with the stability of the scooter over mixed terrain, and softens the ride for the rider too.  The X-treme X-250 folds at the handlebars for easy storage. With 250 watts of power, and a 24 volt system, the X-250 is powerful enough to carry a rider up to 10 miles distance, at up to 15 mph. The drum brakes stop the X-250 on a dime, and the pneumatic tires also help with the stopping grip. Another feature that the X-250 has that helps the rider to stay in control is the Variable Speed Twist Throttle.  This type of throttle allows the rider to regulate the amount of throttle that goes into the electric motor providing smooth accelleration and controlled riding. There are two 12 volt maintenance free Sealed Lead Acid batteries in the foot deck of the X-250, and the charger plugs right into the side of the battery tray for easy charging access. The belt drive is smooth and efficient in delivering power to the rear wheel from the motor. I recommend the X-treme X-250 Electric Scooter to most kids, ages 8-15, and it is a great choice for the money too.
