Fabulous
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
Arrived 10 days after ordering on Amazon- perfectly packed; A box within an outer dense cardboard box. Easy to assemble, the kids (9,7,6)love it as do I. It is rated at 175 lb but will handle more- lasts an hour with good performance. It is really fast on pavement so the kids are only allowed on grass which is about 25% slower than pavement-very kid safe but not foolproof if one is reckless. This unit thus far is superb- great family fun- Time will tell how durable it is, so far so good after a week.

good starter

Pretty solid, good pickup, easy to ride. I’d say this is better for ages 8-13 though, since after that the older kids would want more power of gas powered bike.

It is fun to ride, even for my wife and some of her friends. It is easy to assemble and very durable.

Totally fun, not reliable
Rating:2 out of 5 stars
Totally cool product, kids had fun, I had fun!

Problem was reliability when the bike was 2 weeks old!

Charging plug on bike prevented proper charging resulting in dead bike!

No fun!

Razor sends out new part, owner supplies labor, NO fun!

On/Off switch breaks, can not turn off bike!

No fun, battery dies!

Excellent Value! Bullet Proof.

Bought this for my 11 year old son and he is on it everyday. Note on sizing – I would disregard the recommended ages provided by Razor – I wouldn’t recommend this size for anyone older than 11 – it would just be too small. I used to ride dirt bikes when I was a kid and was a bit skeptical w/ an electric. But he has put put this thing through the ringer and it has performed very well. Only glitch we encountered was the rear brake locked at one point but it was a relatively easy fix. Overall very pleased.
