In today’s crowded scooter market, it’s easy to be tempted by lower prices and lookalike models. But when it comes to performance, durability, and long-term value, not all scooters are created equal.
At Micro Kickboard, we’ve built our reputation on more than just cool design. Our scooters are engineered with cutting-edge innovation, backed by a manufacturer’s warranty and replaceable parts, and supported by an award-winning customer service team.
We’re not just another option—we’re the benchmark. From the awards we’ve earned to the materials we use, every detail of our scooters is crafted to deliver a riding experience that imitations simply can’t match.
In this blog, we’ll break down exactly what sets Micro apart—and why investing in quality from the start pays off for every rider.
Early Innovation, Longtime Performance
Over twenty years ago, Micro revolutionized personal mobility with the original two-wheeled scooter—sleek, lightweight, and foldable. Its overnight success eventually led it to being sold under the Razor name (you can read about that here!).
Building on the success of the original scooter, Micro set its sights on the most important riders of all—kids. In 2003, we launched the three-wheeled kickboard, featuring a learn-to-steer design for added stability and control—ideal for young children (yes, even 1-year-olds!).
Since then, we’ve continued to pave the way in scooter innovation, combining premium materials, smart design, and award-winning customer service. It’s why families everywhere trust Micro as the gold standard in scooters.
High-Quality Means High-Performance
At Micro, we don’t just build scooters—we engineer long-lasting, high-performance rides that stand the test of time. The difference is in every detail: what they’re made with, how they’re made, and how we support them long after they hit the sidewalks.
What They’re Made With
Every Micro scooter starts with premium materials chosen for performance and durability. Thick polyurethane wheels paired with top-tier ABEC 9 bearings deliver an ultra-smooth glide and help maneuver the sidewalk’s bumps and cracks.
Anodized T-bars resist rust for year-round use, while fiberglass-infused decks flex under pressure without compromising strength. Add in ergonomic, ultra-soft handgrips, and you’ve got a scooter that feels as good as it rides.
How They’re Made
Each scooter undergoes rigorous testing for strength, performance, and comfort—ensuring every ride meets Micro’s high standards. Want a peek behind the scenes? We’ve even got an in-depth video showing just how much our scooter designs go through before they reach your doorstep.
How They’re Supported
Micro scooters are designed to last a lifetime and live up to their investment. Thanks to their modular construction, nearly every part can be replaced. When something wears down, just browse our parts catalog and swap it out—no need to toss the whole scooter. It’s a sustainable design that keeps your active, outdoor fun rolling for years to come.
Products That Win Awards
At Micro, we’re proud that our dedication to quality, durability, and thoughtful design hasn’t gone unnoticed. Over the years, our scooters have earned numerous awards from industry-leading experts, parenting organizations, and design professionals.
