Product DescriptionProduct DescriptionCruise around the neighborhood in style with the Razor E100 electric scooter. Boasting a chain-driven, high-torque motor, and a handy twist-grip throttle, the E100 is the perfect device for pre-teens and teens wanting to zip over to a friend's house or head to the park. Unlike Razor's E300S and E500S scooters--whose motors start from a standing position--the E100 requires a small manual kickoff to 3 miles per hour before starting (the rider presses a trigger to engage the motor). Once the rider is on the move, however, the electric motor ramps up to 10 miles per hour--fast enough to have fun, but not fast enough to be a menace on the street or sidewalk. And thanks to the long-life rechargeable battery, which takes about eight hours to fully charge, riders can cruise for up to 40 minutes at a stretch.
Other details include a folding handlebar mechanism for easy storage and transport, an 8-inch pneumatic front tire and 4.9-inch polyurethane rear wheel, and a hand-operated front brake. The E100 is recommended for ages 8 and older and offers a maximum weight capacity of 120 pounds. It also comes with a pair of 12-volt batteries, a charger, and tools and is backed by a 90-day warranty.

Urban and suburban transportation has never had so many options, and kids and adults of all ages will be happy to zip around town on these new electric scooters. They're environmentally friendly, much quieter and cleaner than gas scooters, and definitely lots of fun.
These Currie scooters are as queit as a bicycle, very reliable, have a 6-month manufacturer's warranty, and replacement parts are readily available. All come equipped with a virtually maintenance-free brushless motor, inflatable 12" tires, an easy-to-use thumb lever throttle to control the speed, top speeds of about 16 mph, and can support riders up to about 225 pounds. They also free-wheel when coasting, which means that you get better range, and can easily push the scooter along when the throttle is not engaged. Below, you'll find information on the newest Currie-manufactured scooters. Currie no longer sells scooters under its own name, but still manufactures these excellent quality scooters, now sold under the Schwinn, GT and Mongoose brand names. The old Currie Phat
The Shockwave is the same model as the Schwinn F-18 and the Mongoose Hornet F-5.All are manufactured by Currie Technologies. One of the newest Currie scooters, the top-of-the line Shockwave boasts a powerful 600W motor, with 40% more torque than the previous Phat Flyer SE model (which had a 350W motor), as well as a front shock and a rear swingarm shock, which is great for pot-holed urban streets or dirt trail use. This model has the highest torque of the Currie scooters, with strong hill-climbing power, and good off-the-line acceleration to get you across intersections quicky. It's 12" wheels provide more stability than smaller-wheeled scooters, and you'll find this to be a very solid scooter that really provides one of the best rides around. Top speed averages around 16 mph, the scooter weighs 67 pounds, and the distance range is about 8 miles (depending on rider weight, road conditions, etc.). If you want a longer range scooter, check out the next model down, the Tsunami, which has a 15-mile range, though it is geared slightly differently so it may not provide the same acceleration or hill-climbing ability. The Tsunami also has no rear shocks. Though the Shockwave has a slightly smaller deck length for standing than the long-range Tsunami, the space is more than adequate for most riders. There's also an optional seat kit, available for $50 (use seat kit# AS-720 for Currie F-18 Swingarm, Currie Lightning, GT Shockwave, Schwinn F-18 and Mongoose Pro Hornet FS).
