Kick Scooter Wheels

Kick Scooter Wheels for Everyday Use

While the wheels provided with your kick scooter are designed to endure, eventually, they will need to be swapped out. To ensure compatibility with your current setup, select wheels with the correct diameter.

You must also consider the hardness level of your wheels, as this affects your riding experience. Generally, softer wheels offer a smoother ride, but they may wear out faster. To determine the hardness, check the durometer rating, marked with the letter A and a number up to 100. The higher the number, the firmer the wheel.

Pneumatic Scooter Wheels, which incorporate an air tube within the tyre, are prevalent on numerous scooter models. These wheels are ideal for regular use, whether commuting to work or visiting the shopping centre. This is due to their ability to cushion the scooter on rough surfaces and deliver excellent traction.

What is the Lifespan of Kick Scooter Wheels?

Several factors influence how long your wheels last, including the type of wheels, ride frequency, and surface conditions. As previously noted, softer wheels may require more frequent replacement. Additionally, daily rides on uneven terrain can also shorten their lifespan.

Bearings are crucial for maintaining smooth wheel rotation. Over time, these will also require replacement. If you suspect yours might need an update, consider browsing our selection of Kick Scooter Bearings.
