How do you stop this scooter? I don't see a brake pad.

It doesn't ride too fast. Doesn't require break as kids always have one leg on ground or can get down to stop the scooter.

The scooter is really small and honestly, unless the child is zooming down a hill, brakes really aren't needed. My son never goes fast enough on it to need brakes.

It doesn't have a brake. But the front wheel won't spin super fast. Not for bombing hills but a good start!

Kid just puts his or her foot down. It'd likely only get going too fast if on a hill.

I would take it off and put it back on and see if it sits properly. Also (I dont know your skill level) make sure the washer is on correctly, there are two very distinct sides. You will LOVE the Brake by the way.... that concussion from this thing is a beast, and almost little to no climb

How can I do? I did not know how to control it and broke it. I believe that it is my problem. Thank you very much

You need to contact the company that sold you the scooter. It should be under warranty. It is unusual that it would no be working. Bill Keene 954-421-3169

The front brake is controlled by hand. The front brake cable runs to a small metal pad on a pivot. The back brake is a flexible piece of metal under the fender that you step back on - no cable attachment. I found the back brake to be unnecessary and it made a boinging noise on all but the smoothest surfaces so I uninstalled it but kept the fender that came with it. It has been several years so maybe they have improved the back brake. The front brake is very smooth. I use the Xootr daily and am used to leaning back when I have to use the brake abruptly.

Hi, Lora. To my best recollection, no, there are no brakes. But since it is super close to the ground, you just put your feet down and you can stop. (It was so much fun, my husband and I played on it more than the kids!)

Hi, just go to microkickboard.com. They sell the replacement parts for their scooters. We had to replace a wheel this past spring. The new wheel arrived quickly and was very reasonably priced! Merry Christmas!

Scooters are made to "wiggle" a bit where the bars+fork meet the deck. Pull up on the handlebars, if they aren't secured properly to the fork then you may have to tighten the clamp. Always refer to the instructions that are provided in the user manual before using the product.

Try tightening the head (the 3 hex nuts under the handle bars). If you are scooter "savvy" then you will be able to get it dialed. I have this same exact scooter and I had that problem. So what I did is I went through my entire scooter and tightened the everything to the appropriate length. Also tighten the head with a adjustable wrench. Pick one up at the hardware store. Hope you get your scooter dialed!!Thanks,W. Shows

Maybe I'm missing something about no brake lock, but there is a button that will lock the brake. I just received this knee scooter yesterday. There is a small silver button on the brake lever. With the brake applied I pushed the silver button and the brake remained engaged until I squeezed the brake lever a second time. Granted it is not like a walker or stroller brake, but it did keep it from rolling.

Let's see if I can be a bit more helpful for you and perhaps the other scooter users. The scooter does have a locking break. There is a small spring loaded button on the hand break housing which you can engage when you set the break and push the button in. This will "set" the break so that you can be hands free on your scooter to get something out of your cupboard or something else without the scooter flying out from under you. If the break is not holding well enough, you can adjust the cable for a tighter fit. So, for all who have said no - check it out, you may have a feature you are not aware of!Good luck!Randy Let's see if I can be a bit more helpful for you and perhaps the other scooter users.

Yes, the scooter does have a "parking brake" which is the small silver button on top of the hand brake. To operate the parking brake you squeeze the hand brake in and push the parking brake down. This will keep the scooter from rolling away. However, after using the scooter for a week or so my husband complained that the parking brake was no longer working. We stopped at our local bicycle shop and they were kind enough to make a minor adjustment on it and it has been working fine since then.

you would have to buy a whole new scooter. it snapped where the deck and the bars meet because it was bolted instead of welded.

You simply push in on the brake control to brake and push in on the throttle to accelorate. You don't have to grip either one I rarely use my full hand. Would u like me to do a video for you. Please txt me or call if you'd like. 918 721-1616. Hope this helps, sincerly Sherry
