Why Opt for a Stunt Scooter?
Stunt scooters are ideal if you're seeking a robust scooter engineered for tricks and stunts. While they're perfectly suitable for commuting and leisurely play, their principal advantage lies in their sturdy construction and ability to endure heavy impacts. If you prioritise durability over features such as an adjustable handlebar height or a folding mechanism – a stunt scooter is the perfect choice for you.
Selecting the Appropriate Stunt Scooter (The Swiftest Guide Available)
Before choosing a model, it's crucial to understand your requirements based on height, expertise, and your favoured style of scooter riding. This ensures you acquire a scooter that feels well-balanced and aids you in reaching your potential.
Overall scooter height
Overall scooter height is defined as the measurement from the ground to the apex of the scooter bar. Measure the distance from the ground to your hips and add 5 centimetres. This serves as an excellent starting point when determining a specific scooter height. Consult our scooter size guide for further details.
Expertise level
Each scooter on our site has a suggested user expertise level. This assists you in selecting a model that aligns with your current level of expertise.
Overall scooter height and expertise level are the two paramount considerations when selecting a complete stunt scooter. Choosing a model based on these criteria ensures the scooter remains balanced in all other respects.
Additional Specifications to Consider
If you're committed to picking the right complete stunt scooter, take into account the following aspects.
Deck width
A narrower deck is advisable for those with smaller feet. Narrow decks (up to 5.5") offer greater manoeuvrability, making them ideal for novices learning their initial basic tricks. As you advance and focus on street riding, the typical choice is to select a wider, box-cut deck. Conversely, for those more interested in technically advanced park riding, a narrower, peg-cut deck is usually preferable. Review our guide to scooter decks.
Bar width
The width of the bar should approximately align with the rider’s shoulder width. If the bar is overly wide, it can complicate bar spins and other tricks. If it's too narrow, maintaining control becomes challenging. Explore our guide to scooter bars.
Wheel core material
The wheel core material serves as a good gauge of a scooter's quality. Cores are typically crafted from either nylon or aluminium, with aluminium being the most long-lasting choice. If you're already executing tricks and looking to advance – or if you're a heavier rider – evading scooters with nylon core wheels is advisable. Investigate our guide to scooter wheels.
Headset type
Opting for a scooter with integrated headset bearing cups is recommended for those who may wish to upgrade the headset later. Though many beginner scooters are equipped with non-integrated headsets, an integrated one is the superior option for novices intending to perform tricks and stunts – it's a more resilient, long-term investment. Seasoned riders already understand that an integrated headset is indispensable. Peruse our guide to scooter headsets.
Compression system
The compression system links the bar, deck, and fork of a scooter. SCS, HIC, and IHC are the prevalent compression systems for stunt scooters. SCS is the most robust system, while HIC and IHC are lighter alternatives. Examine our guide to scooter compression.
For those who find these detailed considerations daunting, it's advisable to base your decision on the scooter's specified user expertise level, which reflects the quality of its components. Naturally, scooters with higher price tags tend to have superior quality parts.
Benefits of Purchasing a Complete Stunt Scooter (as Opposed to Constructing a Custom One)
For first-time stunt scooter buyers, choosing a complete model provides greater value compared to assembling one from separate components. It's an economical means of acquiring a well-coordinated setup that’s ready for action straight away. And when modifications to suit your personal preferences or replacement of worn-out parts become necessary, you'll find a vast selection of scooter parts available.
Complete stunt scooters aren't solely for beginners – there are top-tier models crafted for experienced riders too. These are constructed with some of the finest components available and provide an outstanding cost-to-performance ratio. So, if you're a seasoned rider aiming to upgrade most parts of your current setup, a high-quality complete scooter from our range might be precisely what you require.
Are Complete Stunt Scooters Pre-Assembled?
Both yes and no. Complete stunt scooters arrive partially assembled in a box. A few components need to be put together before you're ready to ride. Ensure you follow the instruction manual supplied with your scooter, and watch the video guide:
