I was after new rear wheels for a Micro Maxi scooter after noticing that my son couldn't brake properly anymore. After first trying a new brake, I came to realise one of the 2 rear wheels had significant wear. I checked with a few scooter dealers in Sydney first, none of them had 80mm replacement wheels in stock. Then I checked with Micro, they charge $25 + $10 delivery for one wheel (!) - the Maxi needs 2 rear wheels and $60 felt like a rip off. I ended up ordering some cheap wheels via eBay from China but they never arrived and then I found these Globber ones. Globber is a quality scooter maker from the UK and the wheels are the same size as the Micro ones.

I was surprised they didn't charge for shipping but I just received mine and they're perfect for the Micro Maxi so they would fit the Micro Mini as well.

      Whoops - can't believe I just made that mistake. Fixed (the post, not my son).

    Now if you could find a cheap deal on a replacement back brake for the Micro Mini that would be awesome.

      It's awful how expensive these replacement parts are, hey? They sometimes have free/cheap broken Micro scooters on Gumtree - perhaps you can find one with a good brake? I bought a new brake for my Maxi as it looked a bit worn only to find out that the brake wasn't the main issue …

    cheers. bought one.

    does the wheel include the bearings? (seems a bit wasteful if it does)

    • bozbargain on 16/08/2018 - 15:16

      It's a complete wheel so it includes bearings - you take the old ones out by removing the bolt and slide these in for the Maxi or this one for the Mini.

        Cheers, but my point was that the bearings shouldn't need replacing (most of the time). I've got a skateboard that still has the bearing I put in 30years ago!.

    What's the total width on these? I tried buying roller blade wheels to replace some luggage wheels a while back and they were a few mm too wide.

    How many points is a Micro/Globber Scooter?
