Micro Scooters: A Brand We Trust on Every Ride

At The Rocking Horse, we believe in choosing products that are built to last - and that’s why we love Micro Scooters.

Founded in Switzerland in 1999, Micro began with a simple idea: make scooters that are lightweight, foldable, and smooth enough to be used for everyday transportation. Their very first scooter design became a global sensation and helped launch the modern scooter movement.

What sets Micro apart is their commitment to quality and innovation. From toddlers to adults, every scooter is designed to be sturdy, safe, and oh-so-satisfying to ride. These aren’t just toys - they’re vehicles for fun, freedom, and family adventures.

We carry six of their best-loved models, and we’re here to help you find the one that fits just right.

How to Choose the Right Micro Scooter

Whether your child is just finding their balance or your teen is racing to school, there’s a Micro Scooter perfectly designed for their stage—and their sense of adventure.

Here’s a closer look (and a little of what we love) about each one we carry at The Rocking Horse:

Mini2Grow (Ages 12 months+)

The Mini2Grow is pure genius for families with little ones just starting out. It begins as a ride-on with a comfortable seat and a parent steering handle - which we absolutely love because it gives you full control while your toddler still feels like they’re driving. As your child grows, you can remove the seat and the parent handle, and it transforms into a classic Mini Deluxe scooter.

The lean-to-steer function is built in from the start, helping toddlers naturally develop balance and coordination without even realizing it.

Our review:
The Mini2Grow is one of the best investments for a young family. It truly grows with your child and gives them confidence every step (or scoot) of the way. Parents often tell us it’s the one ride-on their child never outgrows too quickly.

Best for: First-time riders who are still developing balance

Weight limit: 20 kg with seat, 50 kg as a scooter

Mini Deluxe (Ages 2–5)

The Mini Deluxe is a beloved favourite for a reason. Its three-wheel design gives it incredible stability, and the lean-to-steer feature makes it intuitive for young kids to glide and turn without tipping over.

We love that it’s lightweight and easy for kids to manage on their own - even if they fall, it’s never too heavy to get back up and keep going. Plus, the adjustable handlebars mean it grows with them for years of play.

Our review:
There’s no better scooter for giving little ones their first taste of independence. It’s sturdy, fun, and kids feel like they’re flying once they get the hang of steering. You’ll be amazed at how quickly they master it.

Best for: Preschoolers and young riders who want stability and freedom

Weight limit: 50 kg

Maxi & Maxi Deluxe Foldable (Ages 5–12)

The Maxi is the "big sibling" to the Mini Deluxe - stronger, taller, and built for bigger kids who aren’t ready to move to two wheels just yet. Like the Mini, it uses lean-to-steer mechanics, but with a more robust frame and a higher weight capacity to keep up with growing bodies and growing confidence.

The Maxi Deluxe Foldable version takes everything great about the Maxi and adds a quick, easy folding system, perfect for tossing into the car or carrying into school.

Our review:
We recommend the Maxi to so many families because it hits that perfect sweet spot for kids who still need a little extra support but crave more speed and adventure. The foldable version is a lifesaver for busy days and tight spaces.

Best for: Kids who have outgrown the Mini but still love three wheels

Weight limit: 70 kg

Sprite (Ages 6+ to teen)

When your child is ready for two wheels, the Micro Sprite is the natural next step. It’s super lightweight (so it’s not intimidating), and it folds down easily for storage. The ride is smooth and zippy without feeling unstable, which helps make the transition from three wheels to two feel exciting instead of scary.

The Sprite has adjustable handlebars and can handle a surprising amount of daily use, making it great for commuting to school, zipping around the park, or trips downtown.

Our review:
The Sprite is a fantastic "first" two-wheeled scooter. It offers just the right balance of speed, control, and portability - without being too heavy for kids to carry themselves.

Best for: Confident riders ready to move on to two wheels

Weight limit: 100 kg

Micro Adult Scooter (Teen–Adult)

Scooting isn’t just for kids anymore. The Micro Adult Scooter is thoughtfully designed with an ergonomic deck, shock-absorbing wheels, and a smooth ride that makes commuting - or playing outside with the kids - a joy.

It’s lightweight for easy carrying and folds down quickly, making it great for urban commuting, weekend outings, or just keeping up during family bike rides without the effort of pedalling.

Our review:
Parents often think they’ll just buy it for the kids, but after trying the Adult Scooter, they’re hooked. It’s sturdy, fast, and smooth - and yes, it makes errands a lot more fun.

Best for: Teens, parents, and adults who want a practical, fun way to scoot

Weight limit: 100 kg
