Razor Power Core S85 Electric Scooter for Kids Age 8 and Up, 8" Pneumatic Front Tire,Power Core High-Torque Hub Motor, Up to 10 mph, All-Steel

With 8 inch tyres, one being pneumatic and the other being airless, this is a well-specced scooter with safety at the forefront. All the power is now in your hands with the Razor Power Core S85 Electric Scooter. It features a thumb-activated throttle, a hand operated front brake in addition to the rear-fender brake, creating a dual-braking system for better control. The 8" (200 mm) pneumatic front tyre delivers a smoother ride on uneven terrain and the flat-free rear tyre gives a solid ride and the rear-wheel drive apportions greater weight to the rear, enhancing both drive traction and ease of steering. This is the distance that can be travelled on a single charge. This will be influenced by the combined weight of the rider and any luggage, the assistance mode selected, the route (e.g. type of terrain and inclines), tyre pressure, temperature and climate, wind speed and direction. The build quality is impressive. It feels like Razor have used their decades of micro scooter experience to build something bombproof. The S85 owners’ manual comes with detailed instructions on how to replace parts if anything goes wrong, right down to the brakes and tyres. Not everyone wants to be doing this themselves, but it just shows that Razor care about their customers, which is nice to see. Manufacturer specs A similar scooter to the Razor E90 is the Ripsar kids electric scooter. It's also aimed at the age 8 plus group but there are a few differences.

Razor PowerCore S85 12v Electric Scooter

It's maximum speed is 16km/h (10mph) which is similar to the Razor E90. The maximum speed of any electric scooter depends on the weight of the rider, the gradient and type of terrain riding on. It can travel to speeds up to 14mph, which is very speedy. However, like all scooters the speed will be affected by the weight of the rider and the terrain. Heavier riders will go slower. The scooter can also climb a 15% gradient hill. It has a range of 5 to 8 miles on each charge which again is dependant on the rider's weight and terrain. An initial charge of 14 hours is required for the first battery charge. After this, the battery recharges in around 8 hours. One of the plus points of this scooter is its long run time. The scooter has up to 80 minutes of continuous use, which is double the time of other Razor models (where the battery lasts for around 40 minutes). Another plus point of the RCB electric scooter is that it has a one step folding system making it easy to store or transport. The scooter weighs 8kg which is fairly light when compared to some other electric scooters, although there are lighter options.

The front wheel is 140mm and the rear wheel is 125mm. The smaller wheels give the Power A2 a slim, sleek feel. The wheels are made of urethane and as they're smaller than on the A5, kids may feel the bumps in the pavement more as they ride along but honestly, this isn't a problem for most kids. They won't even notice! As the wheels are flat and airless there's no worries about punctures either. The Razor E90 power core scooter is designed for kids aged eight and up. Also made by Razor, the E90 has been around for a few years so has stood the test of time. The scooter has a range of 12 to 16 kilometres and can reach speeds of up to 12.4mph. Both are dependent on the terrain and weight of the rider. It has a 6 hour charge time (compare this to 12 hours on some other electric scooters and it seems a massive plus point). It is illegal to use an e-scooter on a public road, pavement cycle lane or bridleway. E-Scooters should only be ridden on private land with the permission of the land owner. Learn more. span>
