Are there any particular safety precautions to take when using the Town 7?
You should always wear protective equipment (helmet, knee pads and elbow pads) when scootering.
Most serious accidents take place during the first few months of use: spend time learning the basics so that you can control your speed and brake in emergency situations in all weather conditions (particularly on wet ground).
How do you fold/unfold the scooter?
Hands-free and in one second! What's the trick? Simply stand opposite your scooter with the frame straight in front of you and press the pedal, and your Town 7 is folded in less time than it takes to read the instructions.
What is the glide quality like on the Oxelo Town ?
We have equipped this adult scooter with large 200 mm HIGH BOUNCE PU rubber wheels. A large wheel makes it easier to build up speed with minimum effort.
The ABEC 5 bearings are very high quality and, by making it easier for you to push yourself along, limit fatigue.
How should you maintain your scooter?
The wheels and bearings are parts that wear out. Remember to check them and change them if needed.
You can repair and extend the lifespan of your scooter with spare parts that can be ordered through your local Decathlon store's Workshop.You can also get maintenance tips and tutorials on Oxelo's YouTube channel.
Is the Oxelo Town 7 scooter suited to long journeys around town (more than 5 km)?
Ergonomic handles taken from the TOWN 7 EF, and a rubber grip on the deck that's comfy to stand on and absorbs vibrations from the road.
The TOWN 7 adult scooter also has a bell so that you can make yourself heard. Last but not least, the handlebar is slightly forward for better steering control.
Brakes and mudguard: handy for town
This scooter comes with a brake on the handlebar and a second brake on the back wheel.
This second brake comes in the form of a long mudguard that covers much of the wheel.
How much does the Town 7 weigh?
5.1 kg making it easy to move in "trolley" mode: fold it up and drag it along like a suitcase.
What is the maximum weight the Town 7 can take?
100 kg.
What safety precautions should you take with the Town 7 scooter?
We recommend checking your scooter before and after each ride to ensure that there is no abnormal play and no cracks or sharp edges.
What should you do if there's play in the handlebar?
What with bumps in the road, repeated jarring, and vibrations, it's normal for certain parts to come loose.
You can have all of the screws tightened at your local Decathlon workshop or do so yourself with the Allen keys provided (designed to fit all of the scooter's parts).
How are our products tested?
All of our scooters have been lab tested. These tests check compliance with the European standards for scooters, as well as looking for wear. For example, one of our tests involves a machine folding the scooter 10,000 times to check its folding system.
As well as lab tests we do field tests - some measured and others based on the testers' opinions - to really put the product through its paces. The result is a tested, proven product.
