⚠️ Risk

The product poses a risk of injuries because the handlebar grips have ends with diameter of 27.5 mm instead of 40 mm laid down in the standard. This could cause hands to slip from the handlebars and consequently the child could fall while riding. In addition, the scooter does not correctly indicate the weight category for which the product is intended. The product does not comply with the Toys Directive and the relevant European standard EN 71.
