 Not bad, but not great either... February 19, 2008

I got one of these Razor Carvr scooters for my wife, who isn't too comfortable on the 2-wheeled Razor A kick scooters that my three sons (8, 5, and 5 yrs. old) zoom around on. The three wheeled design looked appealing for a person who lacks neither ability or balance, but rather confidence.
I noted right away that this scooter isn't constructed of the high grade and lightweight aluminum that the other Razor scooters are made of. The Carvr is made of welded steel, so it is rather heavy, especially since it has a skateboard truck (also made of steel) in the back with a pretty cool friction brake. Even the steerer tube and handles are made of steel, though it looks like I could easily swap one of the aluminum steerer tubes and handles from one of the Razor A scooters to the Carvr easily. I suspect this scooter is made of steel to save on production cost, as nothing on this scooter screams out high quality.
Ride and handling are o.k., though I must point out that the 2-wheeled Razor A scooters are faster, and handle better. Since this Carvr will be used by an adult rider, I found the bushing on the rear truck too soft. I changed the smaller of the two bushings with a firmer bushing that I had handy. This made the Carvr easier to ride. If the Carver is leaned too much, the brake mechanism actually rubs on the rear wheels. Not something you would want to happen in a fast tight turn!!
I also removed the steering damper right away. I don't understand the purpose of this rubber bushing that resists turning of the steering at all.
It is a shame that this Carvr scooter will never see a modest to steep hill, so we won't be able to see if the scooter lives up to it's name for carving down hills. I suppose the fact that there are two skateboard wheels in back as opposed to one relatively thin scooter wheel would give this scooter better grip on the road to avoid sliding out when carving down relatively steep hills.

I got this scooter for Christmas and found it to be really easy to ride because of its skateboard base design. With its large area to stand and two wheels in the back it seems almost perfectly balanced. This is quite a fun scooter that I'd definitely recommend trying.

I bought this for my 7 year old son when his (inherited, hand-me-down) original Razor broke. He loved his old one... but when this arrived I was out of town and he called to inform me that this was 'the best scooter ever' and wanted to know how soon I could be home to take him to the skate park.
It folds for travel fairly well and the fact that it has 2 back wheels makes the manuvers what he concentrates on instead of balance. It has the ability to turn a lot sharper as well.
EXCELLENT choice, I was worried about not getting one exactly like his old one, but followed my instinct and this is an excellent choice.

yah! This is a wicked ride on got this the same time I got my skate boards, I use this to practice board moves. you can't make very sharp turns with it but you can shed down hill on an awsome ride. I use it more than my other razors cause its faster and more fun over jumps.
 Great once steering limiter removed October 1, 2008

Not sure why anyone would want to limit the steering on this to begin with...especially since it's actually an added metal/rubber piece that they could have saved cost on. My tip is to get an appropriate sized allen wrench as soon as received and remove 2 bolts that hold the metal/rubber limiter bolted on. Voila, now you can steer.
My daughter is 7 and loves that this has a larger non slip platform and 2 wheels in back. So much better to me as well since I've seen the neighborhood homes that have lots of razor type scoooters laying all over the street, yards. This one stays standing and folds up nicely...although it's a bit heavier than most scooters. My daughter prefers it though since it feels more stable. Nice large front wheels don't get stuck in the sidewalk cracks either.
