What is the difference between a freestyle scooter and a "normal" scooter?
The differences between a freestyle scooter and a classic scooter are similar to those between a BMX bike and a city bike.
A freestyle scooter has wider handlebars and smaller wheels (making it easier to handle). Its weight is also different (it is lighter) and it is more manoeuvrable. Since the aim is to do tricks, the handlebars can do a full turn, for example.
Freestyle scooters are also more rigid and sturdy.
Choosing the right size freestyle scooter
To choose the right size freestyle scooter, stand on it and check that the handlebar comes up to hip level, your arms are stretched out and your back straight.
What safety precautions should you take when doing freestyle?
You should always wear protective equipment (helmet, knee pads and elbow pads) when scootering.
Most serious accidents take place during the first few months of use: spend time learning the basics so that you can control your speed and brake in emergency situations and all weather conditions (particularly on wet ground).
Why are there different wheel sizes?
100, 110 or 120 mm? The bigger the wheel's diameter, the more stability the rider will have, which helps them go faster... The downside is the weight.
A bigger wheel will be heavier and harder to manoeuvre when doing tricks. The wheel size should therefore be chosen based on your aims.
What is a flex brake system?
A "flex brake" is designed to return to its original shape after each squeeze. Compared to a spring brake, it reduces vibrations, wears the wheel rubber less, and is much lighter.However, the braking power will be slightly reduced.Freestyle scooters are not designed for high speeds. The braking is designed to slow down or stop after a trick, not for emergency or prolonged braking.
What kind of handle does the MF520 scooter come with?
The ribbed TPE handles give you good grip.
What rules should you follow to look after your scooter?
We recommend checking your scooter before and after each ride to ensure that there is no abnormal play and no cracks or sharp edges.The wheels and bearings are wearing parts. Remember to check them and replace them if needed.
You can repair and extend the lifespan of your scooter with spare parts that can be ordered through your local Decathlon store's Workshop.
