well ive been riding for 4 years, and ive only broken like 6 decks in my life..so thats about a scooter every 8 months

edit: i break parts like once a week though..ive had trouble especially with forks lately..ive 'broken' 3 forks in the past few weeks..by that i mean some ive snapped the threads and others like bent the things that hold the wheel

my pro models last 4-6 months... but would not last as long if i rode it the same the whole time. When i get a new scooter its all about doing everything i can possibly do. When it starts to crack at the dropouts i stop doing everything that will put too much pressure on it so it will last longer... i can usually stretch it about 2 months before the tinyist stuff just makes it snap lol

It varies on what I ride, I ride alot of street in the winter, so they are more prone to breaking as I land on flat alot more, but I will be reinforcing my decks from now on, I have snapped a few forks at the top of the headset, but that is not problem as you can just take parts of one and put it on another.

For me its always the Fold Mech that weakens & gets the handlebars & T-tube to jiggle. About 3 months for me maybe more.
 
i used to be really sketchy where scooters would snap quickly .. but then i bought a seperate street scooter and modded it so it doesnt die . and my park one usally last ... a good year if things keep running smoothly like they are ..

my street one never dies unless the front drop outs cack witch the olny time they did was from rideing in 15 degree weather
