Four-wheel scooters: what are and how to choose the best?

When walking with children, you need to follow them, because they are very mobile. In order for the child not to be bored, he needs to be lured by something, create a hobby for him. Riding a scooter can become such, since this type of transport is understandable in mastering and it is easy to control. Even such a fairly simple transport has many varieties, among which there are four-wheeled scooters. Today we will consider how they differ from ordinary two-wheeled vehicles and analyze several models.

Based on the name, it can be understood that the main difference is the presence of four wheels. This structure was created so that the platform has more stability. On a two-wheeled scooter you need to be able to keep balance, but on a four-wheeled scooter this is not so necessary.

This type of scooters was created for young children who cannot yet independently control a 2-wheeled unit, since their coordination of movements is not so well developed. In addition to sustainability, a large platform can be called a plus. Due to the fact that the wheels are on each side, the platform mounts are wider.

This arrangement of the deck gives the child the opportunity to stand with two legs. This means that the user will be able to remove his feet from the ground so that they rest. Thus, the child will be able to ride by inertia and make small pauses for rest.

Among the shortcomings in front of other models can be called low maneuverability. If standard scooters can rotate immediately after the user has turned the steering wheel, then four-wheeled units turn slower due to the fact that the resistance of 4 wheels to the ground is greater than that of two. Simply put, the more wheels - the harder it is to turn.
