Very disappointed with the hard wheels. This is a portable scooter designed to be disassembled for easy transport. That I would assume means outside. It feels like Im riding a Mattel hot wheels trike. You feel every grain of dirt as you bang bangbang bangbang down the sidewalk. I can only assume they had flat repair in mind but at least give an option such as foam filled or pneumatic. These solid wheels were designed for indoor use only. I went online to see if there any solutions but so far not. Im willing to spend the extra money for pneumatic wheels. Ill have to call . Other than the plastic ride the front end is heavy. I would have to pay more for the 3 wheeled version. The good news is that theres a hitch in the back of the seat frame to add an oversized basket. The little toy basket in front is there in my opinion for profile aesthetics. it is impossible to snap all 3 holding brackets , just the top 2 will fit. The tiller angle lock is a good solid chunk of metal. The tiller panel was nicer than I thought it would be. it has an 8 foot turning radius. Which means switch to the market carts at the door.
