Are there any particular safety precautions to take when using the Town 9 scooter?
You should always wear protective equipment (helmet, knee pads, and elbow pads) when scootering.
Most serious accidents take place during the first few months of use: spend time learning the basics so that you can control your speed and brake in emergency situations in all weather conditions (particularly on wet surfaces).
How do you fold/unfold the scooter?
Hands-free and in one second! This is the Easyfold design.
What's the trick? Simply stand opposite your scooter with the frame straight in front of you and press the pedal—your Town 9 is folded in less time than it took you to read these instructions.
The handlebars are just as easy. Just push the buttons to fold them. And unfold them in one second!
Is the Oxelo Town 9 scooter suited to long journeys around town (2 to 5 km)?
Yes!
The rubber grip on the deck and the ultra-comfy ergonomic handles with palm rests help reduce vibrations for a more pleasant ride.
The TOWN 9 adult scooter also has a bell so that you can make yourself heard. Last but not least, the handlebars are slightly forward for better steering control.
What is the glide performance of the Oxelo Town 9 scooter?
We have equipped this adult scooter with large 200 mm HIGH BOUNCE PU rubber wheels for high-performance scootering. A large wheel makes it easier to build up speed with minimum effort. The ABEC 7 bearings are very high quality and, by making it easier for you to push yourself along, limit fatigue.
How much does the Town 9 scooter weigh?
7.4 kg (16 lb) making it easy to move in "cart" mode: fold it up and drag it along like a suitcase.
What is the maximum weight the Town 9 scooter can take?
220 lb.
What safety precautions should you take with the Town 9 scooter?
We recommend checking your scooter before and after each ride to ensure the absence of abnormal play and cracks or sharp edges.
What should you do if there's play in the handlebars?
What with bumps in the road, repeated jarring, and vibrations, it's normal for certain parts to come loose.
You can have all of the screws tightened at your local Decathlon workshop or do so yourself with the Allen keys provided (designed to fit all of the scooter's parts).
How are our products tested?
All of our scooters have been lab tested. These tests check compliance with the European standards for scooters, as well as looking for wear. For example, one of our tests involves a machine folding the scooter 10,000 times to check its folding system.
As well as lab tests we do field tests - some measured and others based on the testers' opinions - to really put the product through its paces. The result is a tested, proven product.
How should you maintain your scooter?
The wheels and bearings are wear parts. Remember to check them occasionally and replace them if necessary.
You can repair and extend the lifespan of your scooter with spare parts that can be ordered through your local Decathlon store's Workshop.
