Maker faire 2009 push scooter

When I was at the Maker faire 2009, I saw this neat scooter modification. I was able to ride it. It was awesome, the front wheel make the entire ride smooth and very stable. The ride was amazing!

It is so great, that I took picture just in case I wanted to build one 🙂 Then I realise that I could make one using the same electric motor I have 🙂

Back in Québec, I was able to find a razor push scooter for 1.50$ and a kid bike for 1$ at garage sell! The wheel on the kid bike is around 12 inch and I was planning to make it using a small wheel. I still want something portable if I enter a city bus or something like that.

I was also able to find a electric scooter for 18$.E100_electric_scooter_ 001

I bought that scooter for parts. I wanted the wheels, batteries and other stuff. The scooter was working. I was going around 10km/h ( 6mph). I little to slow.
