work up on an incline is gobsmacking which is why I purchased the air-tyre version before I killed myself (more grip/handles bumps better). In hindsight I wish I'd bought another hard-wheel version (one for home/one for the shack).

The roll on the hard-wheel, even on a flat surface, is to be experienced to be believed, and according to some YouTube video experiments the roll on the Razor A6 is even better - rolls further. Alas I found the air-tyre rather sluggish and the so-called comfort factor inconsequential. No doubt it was safer because it could ride over bumps better. If you hit a ridge in the footpath on the hard-wheel version you'll go flying so you need to be very careful where and how you ride it. And the hard-wheel version has zilch grip in the wet.

My only gripe about these scooters is there's no inbuilt ring from which to attach an anti-theft cord but all in all they are fun and good to use in crowded areas because pedestrians don't seem to hate you like they do when you're perched on a MTB 29er.
