I have a few questions about the overall reliability of these two machines, speed is not a factor but parts breakage is. I have heard that they do not have much suspension and that relates to parts breaking as there is not much suspension to soak up the hits, is this true? One guy said that the 80 can be adjusted to 5 mph, is that also the slowest speed for the 50 too? I know I said speed is not important but I do not want my boy going to fast at first, when he rides with me he likes to give alot a gas{yes he wears a helmet and yes I know you are not supposed to ride double} and I want to control that factor. Do both have a kill switch lanyard in the back?AlaskaBoy.

Never mind, I found a very long thread on this and now I have to decide on another approach.AlaskaBoy.
