A winning S1 AERO test in Hradec Králové

At the beginning of September, a Czech Cup kick scooter race took place as part of Velká cena Hradce Králové. Multiple world champion Roman Matyáš could not miss this traditional event. We were delighted to offer him the chance to race the new IDEA S1 AERO. What did he think, and how did it perform?

IDEA S1 design and overall feel

The IDEA S1 AERO catches your eye immediately with its striking design. Black and gold are not just effective colours: they create a feeling of luxury and exclusivity that sets it apart. Attention to every detail delivers both the look and the function I expect. Every line and curve also has a purpose, improving aerodynamics and contributing to road performance.

Handling

What really stands out about the IDEA S1 AERO is its handling. It is exceptionally stable and easy to steer. The stiff yet lightweight carbon composite frame accelerates efficiently and moves smoothly without wasting energy. Its aerodynamic profile cuts through the air, supporting performance at higher speeds. Acceleration is impressively smooth, especially when a quick change of pace is needed.

Quality IDEA wheels

IDEA carbon wheels are one of this kick scooter's key strengths. They help it perform well in every situation, particularly on descents, where precise tracking and stability matter most. Every corner feels reassuring, even at higher speeds. Professional racers and enthusiasts alike will appreciate the sense of speed and freedom. The wheels work in harmony with the overall design for smooth, responsive progress.

Disc brakes are another major strength of the IDEA S1 AERO. Their reliability matters most on steep descents or during sudden stops. They react immediately and provide the confidence essential to fast riding.

Overall assessment

Despite the IDEA S1 AERO's many strengths, my one small criticism concerns handlebar width. For me, the bars are a little wider than I would prefer, which can slightly affect the steering feel. This mainly comes down to individual preference: what feels a little wide to me may be an advantage for other riders.

Overall, the IDEA S1 AERO is an excellent choice for anyone seeking a high-performance kick scooter combining style, luxury and precise handling. It looks beautiful, but the main benefit is how well it works on the road. Its components are designed to maximise performance and the riding experience. Whether you are a professional racer or an enthusiastic amateur, the IDEA S1 AERO will not disappoint.
