Advantages: Cheap to run Disadvantages: Cold in winter
...some other scooters on the road. It also has what looks like a spare tyre carrier on the back, but it's just another small storage area, where I tend to keep my padlock.
There are loads of accessories you can buy for it too. You can get an alarm, scooter cover, side stand, luggage carrier, saddle bags, front grills, basket, legshield trim.... The list is ongoing!!
Although it is an import, parts are easy enough to come by. I fell off mine, and broke the brake handle, but my local bike dealer managed to order me a new one.

...Ok, ok, Micro Skate Scooters, so you’ve all been there and done that have you... well now it is the renaissance! I was one of the first people in the UK to have a micro scooter. I picked one up in Switzerland back in October 1999. When I came home to skate the streets of Portsmouth all I received were boggy looks, catcalls and turning heads! “What the Dickens is that contraption?” This was the general greeting I received from all and sundry. Of course, this had its variations, guys at the skate park preferred to shout, “Yo dude, what a totally awesome pair of wheels!” I loved the attention, but by April 2000, Woolworth’s and other stores had started to produce their own variations of the now infamous micro scooters.
