Additional Features of Boardy Scooters

Boardy has many features that are rarely or not found on most compact kick scooters.

These features distinguish the Boardy from other kick scooters.

So Boardy is often not called a kick scooter, but a board scooter or an experience scooter.

Flexible Frame

Boardy’s frame is flexible along its entire length, so there is no need for complicated wheel suspensions, and springs, and thanks to the wooden structure, the frame perfectly absorbs the vibrations caused by the road. The wooden frame performs the function of both springs and shock absorbers at the same time. This type of design offers a higher comfort experience than any other wheel suspension, and the silent, smooth glide is unmatched by any other kick scooter.

Pneumatic Tires

Most compact scooters are usually equipped with solid polyurethane wheels. The polyurethane almost completely loses its grip on wet surfaces, and the solid wheel does not provide any vibration absorption. Boardy is equipped with air-inflatable Continental tires, which have very good grip even on wet roads, and they absorb vibrations very well due to their balloon design. The specialty of these Continental tires, that they can be inflated up to 58 Psi (4 bar). We recommend riders to always use the maximum pressure for the best rolling properties. With this maximum pressure Boardy rolls better than bigger wheeled bikes! When we tested the new Boardy on a flat road, we could reach 21 mph (34 km/h).

Industrial Bearing Hubs

From 2024, Boardy is only mounted with the more expensive industrial bearings wheels. The sealed industrial bearings are maintenance-free, they do not need to be set, and their sealed cover keeps water and dust away from the bearing balls. Sealed industrial bearings have much longer service life and lower rolling resistance than conventional bicycle wheel bearings

Hand Brake

The handbrake is always at hand. When you have to brake suddenly, the handbrake can be activated in less than a fraction of a second, earlier than the traditional foot-operated friction brake, so handbrake can shorten the braking distance by up to 4-5 meters. The handbrake lever operates a special BMX bike U-Brake, which is equipped with silicone BMX brake pads for greater performance. The brake is also equipped with a brake booster, which is similar to what is used on Mountain bikes. The brake booster increases the braking power, and it also strengthen the front fork. The special handbrake lever is equipped with a locking function: the fixed brake lever keeps the brake engaged, similar to the handbrake of cars, so the propped up Boardy doesn’t roll away even on sloping terrain.

Foldable Frame

The steering column of the Boardy can be folded down in a few seconds, so you can easily put even 4 Boardys into the trunk of an average car. When the steering column is folded, the Boardy is considered a folded scooter, which can be taken on public transport and taken into the stores. If you want to fold the Boardy even smaller, remove the quick-release rear wheel with one movement. Fender can also be removed with a few movements.

Detachable Mudgard

The Mudguard on Boardy is fixed by hand nuts, so it could be removed and installed in a matter of seconds. Many people only put it on in the rain, many people take it off when packing the scooter without the rear wheel. And there are some people who use Boardy sometimes with mudguard and sometimes without mudguard, because they can’t decide which one looks better.

CNC Machined Parts

We tried to “carve” the Boardy parts from one piece of high-strength, and stainless material, which are primarily aluminum and stainless steel. The board is also made with CNC technology from laminated woody. Thanks to CNC technology, parts and joints are extremely precise, and the number of weldings is minimal. The appearance of the “CNC carved” parts are eye-catching, each of them could be perceived as a unique work of industrial art.

Individual Serial Number

Each Boardy has a plate with a unique serial number. This plate certifies the authenticity of the Boardy and helps to identify exactly when and with what equipped it was made. The unique serial number is also important when you register the Boardy with insurance companies, and when report it to the police in case of theft.
