The Razor Power Core S80 is similar to the Power Core S85. The one main difference is the front wheel. Whereas the S85 has a pneumatic front tyre, both tyres on the S80 are flat and airless. The benefit of this is that the tyres won't require much maintenance. You can't get a puncture on an airless tyre. However, it also means the ride will be a little less comfortable, with no cushioning for bumps on the road. However this won't be a problem if you're mainly riding the scooter on flat, smooth paths. Whereas the E90 features a hub motor, the Ripsar electric scooter features a chain run motor. A hub motor is lower maintenance and quieter. One downside of the Razor E90 is that it takes 12 hours to charge between each use. It’s strongly recommended to charge it fully before the first use and then charge it fully as often as possible. However, please note, you also have to be careful not to overcharge the battery as this can shorten the lifespan of the scooter. The frame size is 105cm high (41.3 inches) from floor to top of the handlebars. It measures 94cm (33 inches) in length.

The scooter has a range of 12 to 16 kilometres and can reach speeds of up to 12.4mph. Both are dependent on the terrain and weight of the rider. It has a 6 hour charge time (compare this to 12 hours on some other electric scooters and it seems a massive plus point).

Where To Buy

An initial charge of 14 hours is required for the first battery charge. After this, the battery recharges in around 8 hours.

There's a lot to like about the RCB Electric scooter. Designed for 8 to 16 year olds, it's suitable for kids between 130cm and 170cm. The height of this electric scooter can be adjusted to 3 height levels at 84cm, 94cm and 104cm. With a rider weight capacity of 80kg, 11 year olds should be able to use the scooter into their teens.

What we didn't like

Another plus point of the RCB electric scooter is that it has a one step folding system making it easy to store or transport. The scooter weighs 8kg which is fairly light when compared to some other electric scooters, although there are lighter options. And as well as our expert assessment, we made use of Gabes (who is 10), an existing electroheads fan and electric scooter rider - his verdict is based on a lengthy ride on various surfaces

This is the maximum speed that can be reached, when riding in optimum conditions. Please consider the riding terrain, weather and riding style to achieve maximum speed.With 8 inch tyres, one being pneumatic and the other being airless, this is a well-specced scooter with safety at the forefront. span>
