Notice that all the scooters in that video have 14-16" wheels. After two years on a 10" scooter, and now 1 3/4 years on a 16" scooter, I will never go back to smaller wheels!

Notice that all the scooters in that video have 14-16" wheels. After two years on a 10" scooter, and now 1 3/4 years on a 16" scooter, I will never go back to smaller wheels! I like both, each have different characteristics. For instance; in the city I have to drive slower on 13 inch+ wheels. With 10 inch wheels however I can corner without slowing too much and avoid potholes very easily. With larger wheels however I can ride over some potholes but at the last moment if I notice a pothole I can't ride easily I have to brace instead of avoid since the tires are too large on bigger wheel bikes to just corner around potholes as they appear only a couple feet or less in front of you. I however would take the bigger bikes for longer trips as they do feel more comfortable and handle bumps a lot better. But those tiny wheels are so fun to corner around things. In Boston, anytime you leave you are basically going through an obstacle course every which way you might go, sometimes so many potholes you can't help but miss a dozen (not kidding). |
