“This scooter is very light, perfect for the riding I do, when I ride it feels as if there is no bumps around me. I’ve learnt some new tricks on this scooter and I love it. I was worried about the lag with delivery and Scooter Hut put my mind at rest about the delay due to Covid-19, it arrived safe and sound.”
We couldn't be more thrilled to hear your feedback, Jo! Glad that the Type R is perfect for your style of riding and that it got to your door so quickly!
Best regards
Jay/Scooter Hut Team
Hey Margaret! We're so glad you're happy with the quality of the scooter! They really are great!
If the scooter is still in new/unused condition, you can return it and purchase one suitable for taller riders. I've linked our Returns Policy and form below:

We recommend the Root Industries Type R Scooter for around ages 7-12, depending on height.

Hi Kelly,
Thank you for your awesome review, we are very excited for you as the Root Industries Type R is definitely a good scooter!
Enjoy it and keep on Grinding!
“Bought this scooter for my 6yo grandson, he picked Rocket Fuel colour on line. Arrived very quickly in about a week and he absolutely loves it. He has had a few cheap foldable scooters and likes doing bunny hops and going to the skate park with us. He is now scooting all around the skate park, doing little jumps, up and down all the hills even the steep ones that scrape a little bit but he is learning to hop it over those bits. He has only had it since yesterday and we have had 4 trips to the skate park.
He loves the colour, it is light but very solid and sturdy. Very well made, arrived well wrapped and in excellent condition. Easy to put together and overall quality is excellent. So please with this and my grandson is super happy. It is also unbelievably quiet and just keeps rolling along with real ease. A wonderful well made product. It is the best scooter I've ever seen, I even had a little go of it and it is so smooth and well balanced. Can't praise this product and the shopping experience at Scooter Hut enough. When I looked for scooters and saw this type I knew it was the one to get, at that point it had 124 reviews and all were 5 star, I noticed today it is 126 reviews and 4.9 so somebody is just too hard to please. Completely deserves the 5 stars. We could not be happier with this scooter.”

“My 14 y.o is using for tricks at skate park. He says it is light and smooth. He says that he for his height (he is about 167cm) he could go for a higher bar , but still can manage nicely with that height as well.”
