How to Customise Your Scooter with Parts from Eagle Sport

Freestyle riders understand that their scooter's performance is everything. Almost every part of a scooter can be customised for the ultimate performance; there is a reason pro riders don't use complete scooters. To develop and improve your own personal riding style and trick level (and be in with a chance of being sponsored), you'll need to create a personalised scooter.

Push your skills with a scooter of the perfect weight, grip, height and strength for what you need. Parts will improve your riding whether you specialise in street, skatepark or flatland riding, and whatever speed and tricks are your strengths. Think about your wheels: you need to balance grip and speed for where you're riding (more grip if street riding is your style), a light bar which is the perfect height, a deck with balance and brakes which you can put confidence in.

Thanks to online retailers based in the UK, you don't have to import parts from America to get the best wheels, bars, decks or breaks. Top brands like Eagle Sport, Proto, Razor, Blunt, Pheonix, Addict and District can be ordered online from UK-based freestyle scooter experts. This means you'll receive your gear - and be able to get riding with your improved scooter - fast. Some even cut bars to size to make sure they're perfect.

The website you order your scooter parts from should be active on the scene. The only way you know you're ordering the best parts is to make sure they're chosen by the experts. Don't even think of buying your scooter parts from an extreme sports site - BMX and skateboard experts know nothing about kick scooters and are unlikely to have the latest parts.

Order from scooter specialists and don't be afraid to ask for advice if you feel lost in the world of Proto, Addict, Pheonix and Eagle Sport. Expert riders want to share their knowledge and experience and make you the best rider you can be. An easy way to see if your scooter part provider knows the sport is by checking if they have a team competing in contests. If they do, you know you're in the hands of the pros.
