Ruckus Scooter
By W. Joe Smith(Owner), May. 31, 2009
Great scooter! Very reliable. This rugged scooter is made with tough looks, and it backs it up all the way. It's got a cool image. No plastic molding or flimsy attached parts here - just the real deal. It's an eye catcher. I'm a grown man weighing about 180 lbs and have no problem taking it to...
