🛴 Let’s Find the Perfect Madd Gear Scooter for Your Rider

BLOG: By www.mozzi.co.nz

Before we dive in, here at Mozzi.co.nz we would always start with the 'can you tell us a bit about your rider’s age, height, and experience?' Cause there are so many scooters from MADD GEAR to choose from. Our other blogs have covered the 3-wheel scooter (aimed at riders 3-5 years), so in this one we are focussing on the 2-wheeler. You will hear all sorts of terms used like 'pro scooter' or 'stunt scooter' or 'trick scooter' or 'skate park scooter'... so we get why it can feel a bit overwhelming.

Really they are all the same - a two wheel pro scooter, that can also be ridden to school, but it is able to be used in a skate park to do tricks too. These scooters feature fixed handlebars for extra stability (no folding or height adjusting). If your rider’s still growing, consider sizing up so they can grow into it! There are however, varying levels of components on the scooters as they get bigger, and sizes of the decks and handle bars are made taller as the rider age goes up.

⚙️ Choosing the Right Size Scooter

Picking the right size isn’t just about comfort—it’s about safety and style too. Madd Gear scooters are purpose-built for specific rider ages and heights to make sure every session is smooth, stable, and seriously fun.

Handlebar height matters! Ideally, bars should sit between the waist and lower chest of the rider. You don’t want bars too low or high—no handlebars near the face! Arms should be relaxed, not stretched or squished. A good fit means more confidence, better control, and a whole lot more fun.
