    I had replaced the stock bearings on my wife's A5 and she asked if I had oiled it up since it took less effort to move the scooter. Pretty good testament there.

    Do you know how to fix an A5 Lux scooter that is having trouble turning side to side? I can't see any way to lubricate the turning mechanism (at the bottom of the handle where it turns the front wheel right or left). It has become very stiff and sometimes causes accidents since the scooter won't turn when it should.

    I've changed the bearings on my Razor A5 Air for Bones Super Redz. The wheel with new Bones bearings was spinning almost 3 times longer than the one with original blue Razor Pro bearings, which are used on the A6 model as well. Besides that, when I've measured my maximum speed with original bearings on A5 Air with my GPS speedometer app, I've got 14.2 MPH. While with Super Reds, I've got 15.5 MPH while going against the wind.

I bought @Bones Super Redz@ expecting to have super performance for the scooter of my son but only spin 8sec tested also in fidget spinner 8sec... not running better that the super cheap bearings... They are a lot of people saying and showing that the Red Bearing are amazing but a lots also say that spin for less than 8sec...

    Yes, but make sure the tire size you're changing to is no more than 200mm *45 mm. Otherwise, the wheel would be too wide for your average scooter front fork.
