5 Sep 2009The popular name of Razor scooters is kick scooters or push scooters, and they follow the tradition of Wim Ouboter, the Swiss who inspired JDBUG to create the first Razor. At present, Razor scooters are produced by Razor USA, a company based in California that has seen a great increase in sales over the last decade. It often happens to take the Razor scooters design for the standard image of folding push scooters in general, particular since the aluminum frame is a defining feature.

Razor scooters have made a big name in free-style. A scooter can be ridden as part of acrobatic performance, in an experience full of adrenalin. Razor scooters often undergo some form of reinforcements when they are intended for frees-style because the shock of high force impact cannot be otherwise absorbed. The Pro or A4 model works well in off-road conditions because of the stronger frame and the larger wheels. The other Razor scooters A, A2 and A3 have a manual bar in the rear part, but you can remove it if you don’t like it.
Razor scooters are manufactured from airplane grade aluminum that is made to resist to bending even with an 1,100 pound weight. All the foldable models are also very silent thanks to the special design and material of the wheels. All in all, the contribution of Razor Company to the development of new sports and pseudo-vehicles designed for urban areas is remarkable and needs to be acknowledged as such.
