【New Folder (2014)】

The New Folder (2014)Razor scooter that was the envy of every middle school class in the early 2000s is all grown up and renamed the Razor Icon.

That means it's now electric and no longer only available at the Sharper Image. The original two-wheeler required your own power to get rolling. Razor has long had electric scooters in its catalog of products, but none with the prized minimalist form factor of the original.

A Kickstarter launched Tuesday for the Razor Icon with early bird prices to snag the revamped e-scooter for $549 in an array of colors: orange, blue, red, pink, and black. The handle grips still match the color wheel just like the original. The first electrified classics will be available in August if enough nostalgic backers pull through.

Once backed on Kickstarter with $25,000 it'll then be available to anyone for under $1,000.

The e-scooter has a 36 volt lithium-ion battery with 18 miles of charge and a top speed of 18 mph. It features airless tires, so no flats possible. A small LED screen displays riding speed and battery level.

Even though it's now electric it's still made out of lightweight aluminum and can still fold up for easy toting onto the schoolyard. I mean office. Where you work. Since Razor and its riders are all grown up.
