What better way to get kids interested in your waning product line than by setting it on fire?
Razor has debuted two of its new scooter products that sport surprises to boot: An electric model called the eSpark ($180), and for the urban artist on the go, the Graffiti ($60).
The Graffiti leaves a trail of three parallel lines of sidewalk chalk with its “chalk scribbler”, while the eSpark features a “spark bar” that sends tiny flames flying as you scoot by. The eSpark can reach speeds up to 10 mph with a 40-minute battery life.
I can’t remember the last time I saw kids zipping down the street on a Razor scooter. I think the iconic, slender two-wheeler has been relegated to bike-shunning, eco-conscious San Francisco nerderati who use it on their daily commute through the city.
But that’s about to change.
If you’re child gets the Graffiti, at least you’ll always know where they’ve been. As for the eSpark, that just seems like pure trouble: If a couple stray sparks hit a couple dry fall leaves on the ground, they could end up leaving a Ghost Rider-style path of fiery destruction in their wake.
