29r Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 Sam, I saw those at Pep Boys (store closing ) $150 , why didn't I buy one ...or two... !! Razor has been around for awhile (in the States) started out with push scooters as I recall . I think you might be referring to is similar to like a PW50 Yamaha ?

sam Posted January 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 http://www.razorelectricbike.com/ 29r, I see they supply parts also! We want a oslet, trials specific, but are curious about the Razor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barrybaines Posted January 29, 2008 Report Share Posted January 29, 2008 I managed to get the link to work? Must be all this Welsh air Although I think anyone would do better on the Osset over any of the Razors on that page for a trials use!

firstgear Posted February 6, 2008 Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 Sam I took a good look at the Razor's lastnight. As far as fit and finish quality goes they are in the same ball park as the Oset. As far as function the Razor seemed to be heavy with less turning radius. Also on the model I looked at Razor mx350 the motor was rated at 350 watts compared to the 500 watt motor on the Oset 12.5. I believe Razor does make a 500watt model also but this store did not carry them. Run time on the Razor says 40 minutes on a battery charge. My son is currently getting approx 2 hours per charge. Just wanted to pass on the little information incase it helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaby Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 Sam, Some friends of ours have a razor and Will has spent quite a bit of time on it. Fun little bike. It even gets around pretty well in the hills/woods. As others have mentioned, frame geometry is not very well suited for trials, but how tight can the turns be in the pee wee class anyway?! Another drawback would be the high gear ratio. Perhaps this could be changed by swapping out sprockets??? This particular Razor gets used pretty hard (jumps, high speed wipe-outs) and has held up amazingly well. Durable little bike for the money...
