My review.


Cons
- Extremely heavy, hard to whip flat..
- Bar to deck weight ratio doesn't work, light bars + heavy deck... no?
- Really forward, like an old a, slammed, and then some.
- Shocking headset, comes loose really easily.
- Foamies are crap, way too soft.

So it has its fair share of pros and cons, i guess it comes to preference and getting used to it.

--> all micros are heavy, i think thats normal
--> you can get one pieces and you'd fix that weight problem
-->
--> bike headset
--> bmx grips

everything is fixable, it seems like any other micro except for the angle of the headtube, but it is a prototype so i think they'll fix that

Wasn't saying they aren't fixable, just saying they are the things i felt could be a little better.

If someone gets one and doesn't want the wheels cuz they have old metal cores or something, i'll take them for free :)

I really doubt it is a prototype if this many people already have access to them and they are testing to buy bulk. No company makes a "prototype" with graphics that complete. I am willing to bet that is the final model for the new XT. You can correct me if I'm wrong but nothing about that scooter being a "prototype" makes sense.

Well, they fixed a few problems, but it seems they also gained a few more. I see some little improvment, but i beleive they could do and should have done a lot better than this. It still has some unsolved issues regarding the old models. Plus it still looks like the guy who designed this was throwing up while drawing the scooter.

Yes, the things that ScooterPeru mentioned can be fixed, but why not fix it NOW! Basicly you'd still have to buy a shitty scooter AND you have to buy aftermarket stuff on it to make it into a good setup. That's like buying a razor pro-model and aftermarket stuff, but instead of the $50 razor you have a $300-500 micro. It's nonsense.

I will send 5 dollars to the first person who will break that scooter the fastest.
I wanna see the bars bend/snap.
I wanna see the deck bend or snap.
I wanna see the headtube ovalized.
I wanna see the brake snapped.
I wanna see the fork legs bent.
I wanna see a real ride-and-destroy test that goes for months, not just "oh-im-doing-a-few-tricks-on-flat" test.
And it still has a threaded forktube??

Because you know razor bars and forks dont bend and span either do they yeah?, For fucks sake Stan is testing it isnt he? How many flat clips do you see of him hey? And like 70% of the scooter comunity have a "threaded fork tube". Stop bitching all the time you are seriously the biggest fuck head on this site, I could care less if i ger banned for this. Have a fucking swell day man. xxxxooooxxxxoooo <3333

Dude...
He's saying that he wants a decent test.
I wrote a review after a day, admitadally it wasn't riding flat, i did ride park/a bit of street.
People do need more than a day to review something, and stan probably wouldn't be the greatest test..
Transition take an enormous amount of pressure off of a scooter, and from what i've seen of him, he doesn't ride alot of big street and that.
Think before you type, yeah?
I'll be surprised if you don't get a ban.
Good day.

Hi madis...the crossbar on my wee bars are slightley bent and sooner or later I'll have to order the new cromoly onse...will I get a cookie in the package too?

What I want to say...there ain't perfect parts...and hell, I'd love to give that deck a chance, ofc I would throw my parts on it, I'm only interested in the deck...

And bitching about "I want see bent XT bars/forks..." hell man...with all the respect, you bent/broke your SR fork and a gazillion of other parts, and you still hail them over the Micro ones...where is the love..?

Sweet, looking forward.

And, you didn't get by point.
I want to see everything break. I want to see if it's possible to break the new released stuff so we could see its flaws and typical errors if they have any. For hells sake, i've also bent my own old bars before several times, and that's where i get my experience to make parts better - that's the reason i want to see stuff break. This has nothing to do with love/hate.

How do people break brakes, anyways? Do they land on it really hard or what?

In case you didn't know - this is what happens to Sprite/Bullet brakes on daily basis for 90% of Micro's consumers.

Those are made out of like really weak aluminium, so we can only hope that the new ones are better.
