would it be a waste to get a Razor Pro 08?
is the wheels the problem? cuz if thats the case then i can get different wheels. i just dont know why people hate them so much. the reviews written on some sites say they are the best, but you guys say they suck!

help??

all wheels break grant show us a model which has been used on scooter with out bad points as yet there isnt one :) end of story
 
Pro models wheels have a ridiculous rate of breaking even when you hotglue them they dont last so long. In the long run. Pro model is great. If you go somewhat big, even to the slightest get the deck reinforced. Slap some legit wheels on it. Thats it.

no if i were you i would stick to stock but bolt everything and glue the wheels.. if your just starting out you dont want it to be to heavy :)

Listen to Peter, your still getting into riding. Get some new wheels, or at the most glue your pro wheels. And from there just bolt your folding mech. Maybe think about checking out some one piece bars. But no need to be reinforcing your deck just yet. Its only going to make your deck heavier, and make learning new tricks harder than it should be.
 
once u get the wheels hot glue em..... if you dont the cores will crack very fast.... even with hot glue they start to crack after couple of months or weeks..

If you have a spare t-tube, cut a foot off it and cut a groove down the slot, then jam it in your fork. Last thing you want is a Pro fork only lasting 5 weeks.

LOL look at her trick list, she's not going to break anything anytime soon. Just get a pro model and stop questioning yourself.

Not necessarily. It depends on her strength and weight, for the most part. My friend broke two wheels and a fork before he could even tailwhip consistently.

Regardless, if she's on the tubby side, (145+ pounds) it's likely she'll break scooter parts regularly.
