Madd Gear MGP Carve Scooters

Madd Gear’s Carve scooters offer an affordable way to explore freestyle scootering, featuring strong steel bars, robust decks and reliable wheels. Designed for junior and entry-level riders, the Carve range focuses on progression with solid construction and vibrant graphics.

MGP Carve Scooters focus on smooth cruising and carving, blending scooter design with surf-style motion. They typically feature wider decks, larger soft-urethane wheels for ride comfort, and low-sweep handlebars to enable fluid, carving-style motion. The frames may be roll-foldable or fixed, depending on model, yet always emphasise smooth gliding over speed or tricks. This makes them suitable for casual rides, commuting short distances, or enjoying sidewalk waves.
To compliment the ride, check Scooter Parts for replacement hardware or grips.

Why buy Madd Gear MGP Carve Scooters?

Q

What decks do Carve scooters use?

A

Carve decks are constructed from aluminium with a width around 4.5 inches. Their geometry is simple and durable, allowing beginners to feel stable while learning. Headtube angles are about 83°, offering a balanced responsiveness for developing spins and manuals.

Q

What materials are the bars?

A

The bars are made of high-tensile steel, giving them strength for budding riders. This material can handle minor drops and beginner grinds, though it’s heavier than aluminium bars.

Q

How do the wheels perform?

A

Carve scooters come with 100–110 mm wheels featuring composite or aluminium cores, depending on the specific model. The urethane hardness is around 88A, suitable for smooth rolling at moderate speeds on park and street surfaces.

Q

Who should ride a Carve scooter?

A

It’s aimed at young beginners aged 5–10 who want to learn the basics of scootering. The scooters are shorter and lighter than advanced models, helping kids control them easily. Parents appreciate the price point and durable construction.

Q

Can I customise or upgrade it?

A

Yes. You can replace wheels, grips, clamps or even upgrade to lighter bars as skills advance. However, the deck and fork are more suited to light use; serious upgrades may require a new scooter altogether.

Q

Do they use compression?

A

Carve scooters typically use a threaded headset rather than IHC or HIC. Threaded systems are easy to maintain for beginners, but may loosen more quickly under heavy tricks. Riders who progress should consider a scooter with IHC compression.

Q

Are they durable?

A

For beginner use, yes. The deck and bars withstand early tricks, but as riders perform bigger jumps or grinds, more robust scooters like the MGP Origin series may be needed.

Q

What colours and graphics are available?

A

Carve scooters are known for bright, playful colours and graphics. Options include neon greens, blues, reds and graphic patterns that appeal to kids.
