Scrooser - For the Now Kid in Us

Post by WhiteNoise »

Loved my manual two wheeled scoot as a kid. Why not love one again, but with power? Oh, who's kidding who? The love affair never ended :D ;) I don't remember this being shared (sigh) if so, sorry. Here we go....in White: Scrooser

Interesting, but it's huge! Scrooser's wobble but it don't fall down? The battery removal is convenient for charging over Segway for sure but maneuverability for this in urban environment is weak. Segway has always been outside the masses affordability for a scooter but maybe this thing shows up on my streets and sidewalks if the price is right who knows. Mall cops will keep their Segways :)

According to their site, retail is $5290.

I'd pay good money for a list of their customers. They are clearly people with enough disposable income that they don't mind grossly overpaying for a product.

"Will you walk away from a Fool and His $$$ ....."



There's always a song in this 'ol head of mine :D
A very likeable song back in the day, but it sure drags to me now, repetitious too.

Back to the Fool on the Hill that buys a Scrooser to sail down it 8)
Now that! would be COOL (and a wee bit dangerous)
