Globber 3 Wheel Fixed Scooter Reviews
One of the most toddler-friendly scooters out there is the Globber 3. It is recommended for kids 3 and up and has an adjustable handlebar to fit multiple different age groups. Like most well-made toddler scooters, it comes with a lean to steer function. This is important not only for safety but to teach the kids proper turning techniques for when they get a larger scooter later on.
A good way to think of a kid scooter is as a practice vehicle to teach them about speed and safety. The Globber 3 has a much higher weight capacity than its competitors at 110 pounds. This can be good for kids who don’t like to give up their favorite toy even when they get a couple of years older. As I kid, I never liked upgrading to new toys and always liked to keep the old ones so I think if this were around when I were a kid it would be the perfect scooter for me!
Features of the Globber 3 Wheel Fixed Scooter
The sturdiness of this board translates into very stable riding. The deck is strong and it is low to the ground, which makes for a very smooth ride. The wheels are also a huge plus for the Globber 3 scooter. They are super high rebound polyurethane so they glide very well. They also come with 5 bearings inside the wheel which only enhances the glide factor. Overall it is fun, easy to ride and safe.
