An old Royce Union kick scooter. Yes, that is a front and rear suspension you see.

Kinja'd!!!

Could use new wheels, though the bearings are good, and the rear fork is slightly bent, and the front suspension is a bit too soft for even my mere 130lbs, but those are all fixable enough.

File this under "mildly interesting"

When I started school on a bigger campus, I nearly got a Black Label 4 and checkerboard grip tape. The one thing that stopped me was the cost...I then looked for used BMX bikes, and never could find one in good enough shape, so I just walked everywhere. I'm around 150lbs, so I can't ride the smaller scooters safely, they flex way too much.

I wish I could have gotten the Black Label....I wouldn't have minded a scooter...

I have a Razor scooter from The Sharper Image that I found in some bushes near my middle school. I checked up on it every day for a week, and when it hadn't moved, I had my dad drive me out to pick it up. The very next day, there was another identical scooter in those same bushes. I can only assume it was a gift from the gods of transportation.

I'm definitely considering underglow red LEDs.
