1-year guarantee · our own repair workshop in Cookstown · tracked NI delivery
Scooters sized for younger riders, with speed modes you control — so the first outing can be walking pace and the faster settings unlock when you are ready. Free delivery across Northern Ireland, or bring them into the Cookstown shop and we will size one up properly.
This is the part worth knowing before you buy. A privately owned e-scooter may only be used on private land, with the landowner's permission — your own garden or driveway, or somewhere you have permission to be. Not footpaths, not roads, not cycle paths, not public parks. That applies to children exactly as it does to adults. Our guide to the Northern Ireland rules sets it out in plain English.
Every scooter here has selectable speed modes, and the lowest is genuinely gentle. Start there. Most parents find a week or two at the slow setting does more for confidence than anything else, and the bike still has somewhere to go as they improve.
Height and confidence matter more than age. They should be able to stand on the deck with a slight bend in the knee and get both feet down flat when they stop. Each product page gives a height guide alongside a rough age — and if they are between sizes, call in and we will stand them on the actual scooter.
Whatever the speed setting, a helmet that fits properly is the single thing most worth buying alongside. We stock them, and we will check the fit at the counter.
Every scooter is checked and set up in Cookstown before it leaves, with spares on the shelf. If something goes wrong, you ring people who know the machine rather than posting it to a distributor. Trading since 2006.
We deliver across Northern Ireland, and you are welcome to try before you buy at the Cookstown shop. Local guides: Belfast, Derry, Lisburn, Bangor, Newry, Ballymena, Portadown, Lurgan, Newtownards, Omagh and everywhere else in Northern Ireland.

Electric scooters can handle some wet conditions, but how well depends on their water resistance rating. Most scooters have an IP rating (Ingress Protection) that shows how resistant they are to water and dust.
