Winter Scooter Parts

The warm weather is fading away and now the cooler temperatures are right around the corner. It will soon come the time when many scooters, go-karts, dirt bikes, mini bikes, and other powersports equipment get returned to the garage to spend another winter season sleeping peacefully under their tarp. Well, that might be the case in other places, but here in central Colorado the return of winter doesn't slow people down. Perhaps it is because this area was settled by a curious mix of crusty gold prospectors (complete with donkey, pan, and pickaxe), and Bohemian non-conformists, but people here look at winter as just another excuse to have fun. It has been observed that a typical Coloradan's winter attire includes flip-flops, puffy down vests, baggy shorts, and a stocking cap.

Whether you put your scootin' machine to bed for the season or keep it running all year around, the colder weather means it's time to winterize. Just like on a car, you need to check the fluids and belts, inspect your batteries, and give it some protection from the elements whenever it's not in use. The same goes for mobility scooters and power chairs just as it is applicable to powersports machines.

Scooter Covers
If you park your machine in the garage for the season you can cover it with any old blue polypropylene tarp held down by mismatched bungee cords from the dollar store, or you can do it correctly with a dedicated scooter cover of the right size. We offer a number of excellent quality covers for mobility scooters and power chairs, convenient bike covers, and super-handy covers for street-legal motor scooters that you can store in a top case or saddlebag.

Weatherproof Cover for Maxi Scooters
If you have a big maxi scooter, here is how you keep it looking its very best. Our weatherproof cover for maxi scooters is made by Prima, so you know it's the top-quality cover for your machine. Far and away better than any ragged blue polypropylene tarp, this Prima cover was designed especially for today's larger (and pricier) 250cc and larger maxi scooters.

Heavy Duty Weatherproof Cover for Mobility Scooters
If weather or long term storage is an issue, protect your scooter from the dust, rain, and snow with one of our heavy duty weatherproof covers for mobility scooters. Think of these heavy duty scooter covers as a scooter's winter raincoat.

Kick Scooter Wheels
One scooter type that isn't much affected by the season is the humble kick scooter. Unless the sidewalks are covered in six inches of ice and snow, kick scooter fanatics are still out there freewheeling, barspinning, and tailwhipping along. The kick scooter has long had an honored place at Monster Scooter Parts. Beginning with the Razor Scooter of a few years ago and evolving into today's wide range of pro-style models, kick scooters have become larger and far more tailorable to the enthusiast who loves to customize their prized possession. With so many aftermarket kick scooter parts available, kick scooters can be thought of as LEGO sets for older kids (and adults). You can customize your scoot with your choice of headsets, scooter clamps, handlebar grips, and a whole lot more.

Of all our replacement kick scooter parts, kick scooter wheels have to head the list of the most popular parts category. We currently offer an absolute myriad of different sizes, styles, and colors to suit the rider. Whether you prefer a plain but sturdy wheel, or one that reeks of opulence, we probably have just the wheel you want. Kick scooter wheels are simple to install and remove, usually requiring nothing more than a pair of 5 mm Allen wrenches.

100 mm / 98 mm Replacement Light-Up Flashing Kick Scooter Wheel with Bearings
Put a set of these 100 mm / 98 mm replacement light up wheels on your kick scooter and watch the fireworks spin! Also known as flash or flashing polyurethane wheels, these are a great accessory to make your kick scooter truly stand out and be seen.

150 mm Scooter Caster Wheel with 608 Bearings
The 150 mm scooter caster wheel might very well be the right wheel for you to rebuild that peculiar kick scooter, or build your own custom design. Pre-installed with 608 size bearings and a spacer so they can be ready to roll out of the box.

110 mm 841 Enzo Pro Scooter Wheel
841 wheels and pro scooter rider Enzo Commeau have designed the 110 mm Enzo pro scooter wheel. These are the perfect wheels for riders looking to rise above the level of mere amateur and start scooting like the pros.

Many of our kick scooter wheels are sold by the single wheel. Some of you have asked us if they could just purchase one wheel at a time, and we listened to you. Now you can even get one green wheel and one red wheel so you too can be a Bohemian non-conformist just like all of your friends.

Scooter Wheels - Flashing Lights at the Monster Scooter Parts Film Festival

The humble and unpretentious kick scooter has come a long way over the years. From its plebian origins to today's folding aluminum models, the kick scooter has grown from being a home-made kids' toy to being a ubiquitous sight on thousands of urban sidewalks and suburban cul-de-sacs. Monster Scooter Parts celebrates the kick scooter with a wide offering of bearings, colorful handlebar grips, a plethora of top-quality helmets & safety gear, and a selection of replacement wheels. And what kick scooter would be complete without a handlebar mount squeaky horn or ring-a-ding bell?

The Wheel
One of our favorite items here at Monster Scooter Parts are these wonderful 98mm/100mm light up wheels for the Razor A and A2 kick scooter. In fact, we love these sparkling riots of light so much that my friend and colleague GT recorded a short film that spotlights these kick scooter wheels in all their beauty.



Not only do kids of all ages (just ask GT) love these light-up wheels, parents can take a bit of ease knowing that the riders' safety factor is most certainly enhanced in low-light conditions. You simply cannot miss the gorgeous illuminating display when a kick scooter sporting these wheels goes flashing by.

Judging from contemporary illustrations, the kick scooter has had a very long, if largely undocumented history. Two hundred years ago kids were playing on early wooden versions complete with handmade wooden wheels. Still later kick scooters could be built at home using an old steel-wheeled roller skate, a pine 2X4 and a bit of metal conduit pipe with a T-joint. Over the years various kinds of kick scooters came and went in popularity, along with yo-yos, hula-hoops, the Whee-Lo, and the Slinky. But unlike some other faddish toys, the kick scooter (sometimes called a "kickboard") never totally died out as each new generation rediscovered and reinvented them, seemingly from scratch.

The modern folding aluminum kick scooter made its dramatic debut in the last years of the 20th Century with the Swiss Micro Original Scooters. Almost concurrently, JDBug began marketing the now-famous Razor scooter. A decade later, Razor is still the premier designer and manufacturer of kick scooters in the world. No longer just for kids, adult-sized Razor scooters like the A5 Lux are being discovered by urban commuters needing to travel down the sidewalk a bit farther than an easy fast walk. An advantage of the folding scooter over the bicycle is the scooter takes up very little space. The office worker or messenger can simply fold the kick scooter up and carry it into a building.
