Is the Razor A3 worth it over the original A?

Yes for most kids. The A3 adds 120 mm wheels and a wider deck over the base A, which gives a smoother, more stable ride for a modest price difference.

What age and weight is the A3 for?

Razor recommends age 5 and up with a maximum rider weight of 143 lb (65 kg). Taller kids near that limit should look at an adult scooter instead.

Does the Razor A3 fold?

Yes. The handlebars fold down against the deck with a quick-release latch, so it fits in a trunk or closet.

How do the A3 and A5 compare?

The A5 has larger 125 mm wheels and a higher weight limit, so it suits bigger kids. The A3 is lighter and cheaper, better for younger riders.

The scooter comes assembled except for the handlebar T-bar, which needs a few bolts tightened. Tools are included; a helmet is not.

When is the A3 cheapest?

Our take on the Razor A3 Kick Scooter

The Razor A3 is a folding aluminum kick scooter for kids about 5 and up, with a 143 lb weight limit and 120 mm urethane wheels. It stands out for its adjustable-height handlebars, rear-fender brake and a 7 lb build that folds for carrying. It is the larger-wheel step up from the original A model, aimed at riders who have outgrown smaller scooters.
