What's Great About The Pocket Mod Scooter ?
The Pocket Mod looks like a proper scooter, a Vespa in fact. It's comfortable to ride on for extended periods as
you can sit on the seat and place your feet either side of the handle bars on the deck or floorboards. I think
these are the reasons why so many people say their children can't stop riding the scooter. Many comments say that
their kids ride it everyday or use it to cruise to their friends house.
Pocket Mod scooters “gangs” seem to be sprouting up all over the suburbs as word of
mouth spreads the popularity of these machines. Kids will come round to ride the Pocket Mod and before you know it
they will have one. Then the other friends get one and they all go cruising round in a flotilla of scooters...just
like the Mods from yesteryear ! Families will buy more than one so that brothers and sisters don't have to wait
their turn but can ride at the same time.
They seem to be genuinely enjoyable to ride on which might not be the case with the electric scooters that have
no seating and are just a deck. They are also quiet which can't be said for gas powered scooters, one commenter
described the engine as purring when turned on. This should keep the neighbors happy and not shatter the peace of
an early Sunday morning when people want to lie in.
Like all the Razor electric scooters, the pocket mod is easy to keep charged, simply plug the supplied charger
into a wall socket for a couple of hours and the machine is good to go. It will run for 1 hour of constant motion,
which is a long time. Get into the habit of sticking it on charge at night and the scooter will always be ready to
roll.
What's more, it might teach kids to have a bit of responsibility and accountability as they will not want to
have to wait to ride their scooter. Get them into the habit of setting the machine on charge at night and this will
teach them simple cause and effect reasoning.
Despite having a bit more to it than many other scooters (like engine cowling, front fairings and pretty designs
for girls) the Pocket Mod is comparable in price. Many people have also commented on
how durable the machine is.
They have had the machine for a year or longer of pretty much constant, every day use and there have been
little to no break downs or major malfunctions. You may get the odd puncture depending on where you take the
machine but on the whole the design is very sturdy and reliable.
