Dirt Scooters

[Derek Scootz]

I've heard of these but never actually rode one. i think in one of BK's mini vids, he whips one. anyways, a lot of my friends are bikers, and we have this outdoor dirt bike park REALLY close to me. and i wanna find a dirt scooter so i can tear it up. i think that'd be really fun. so if anyone has a link to one that can be tailwhipped [like BK's], please post it.

bk was riding a growped (or maybe a knowped). im pretty sure its a growped though.

 

[Derek Scootz]

does it have a motor?

 

[jeff26]

no. a goped has a motor. knowpeds and growpeds are like bigger scooters.

growpeds are smaller. bk was riding one of those.

i really dont see the difference.

[Andy Rhode]

[Derek Scootz]

BK can triple those haha, and tons more too.

You should try to get one of those kick bike things, a kid down my street has one and they're rad.

I have two dirt scooters, both of which suck. They have 6" plastic wheels with air tires, when I make a custom deck and fork to fit these, I will start serious dirt riding. Now my best dirt stuff is clearing double jumps a few times and doing runs with basic tricks over single jumps.

I tought of drilling new holes for the brake 3 cm forward and cutting the dropouts 3 cm deeper so I can fit a 150 mm ari wheel...but then I have another problem...a fork for such a wheel...
I tought getting a kiddy bike and use that fork (it's 1,1/8" so I'll fit) ...couse I also want to ride dirt...like a half kilometer from me we build a dirt (I ride MTB when I have no scoot) and now we getting a nice huge start ramp...so I could get speed for huge jumps

razor made a scooter ages ago that had pump up tyres and i had one and i took it down to my local trails and barspinned some doubles

 

[brandon kilbury]

i rode a knowped for like 2 years, thats the one i tripled a few times. i got a growped thinking it would be more fun since it would be easier to throw around but the deck is wayyy too small and i ended up just throwing it in my closet. and waht did you get that can clear doubles? because i was convinced my know/growped couldnt haha

 

[Steezeman]

Yeah the decks are hella tiny and the wheel is so big that it gets kinda annoying.
