What is the Difference between a Scooter and a Razor Scooter?
A scooter is a toy that is made for small children. It is often constructed from plastic, but it can be made from aluminum. The difference between a scooter and Razor® scooter is brand name. In fact, a scooter and a Razor® scooter can be similar in size, shape, material and use. Razor®scooters are made by Razor USA. They are a type of kick scooter, or push scooter. Kick scooters are a small platform held up by between two and four small wheels. Non-brand name scooters as well as Razor® scooters are both available in this style. Scooters have a rich history, and primitive scooters included a simple pair of roller skates attached to a board. By 1955, the style had evolved to one similar to what we have today, but the wheels were much larger and didn’t glide as smoothly. Other four-wheeled scooters closely resembled skateboards with handles coming out the top. It was in the 1990s that the narrower, sleeker design we see today was created by Wim Ouboter of Micro Original Scooters in Switze
