Mattel Big Wheel Views
About fourth grade- a new kind of tricycle came out. It was low slung, loud, and looked like a lot of fun- but it had a new name- g“Big Wheel.n” It looked a lot cooler than the tricycle of old. It was made of plastic- everything. The hollow wheel made a racket no matter what it went over. Mattel had a huge hit on its hands- and the old fashioned tricycle was toast.
Last week- everything changed. I got to ride a CF Moto 150 cc big wheel scooter. It ’s as if I got the e“Big Wheelp” I always wished Mattel had made- one with real rubber wheels- and a chain drive (I guess I saw recumbent bikes coming at an early age). Riding through the washboard cobble stones of the Oregon District wasno’t a 5 mph bone shaker anymore. And- real counter-steering cornering was possible. CFMoto makes the scooter in two varieties- the Jewel- which usually retails for around $2,500- which Jason is selling for $1,300 right now- and a fuel-injected version, the CF Glory that ’s supposed to cost around $2,700 and you can steal for $1,700. Either way- you still get 90 mpg and a scoot that hauls you around in comfort.
